Facing the inevitable, Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific Airways has finally executed the last thing every employee wants – retrenchment.

To the United States, however, aggression and responsibility are two interchangeable words used to suit their interests. When the U.S. Navy’s Carrier Strike Group 1 (CSG1) was sent to the South China Sea, China screamed that it was a challenge to its “sovereignty and security” but the U.S. […]
... written on May 09 2017Will U.S. finally attack North Korea? That’s a trillion dollar question everyone is asking, and betting, as Sheriff Trump moves his war machines closer and closer to Bully Kim’s neighbourhood. If this is the Wild Wild West, both cowboys would have had their face-to-face gunfight, and the one who could draw his gun faster and […]

... written on Apr 11 2017Unless Trump is interested to start World War 3, or another Vietnam War, he should stop bitching about attacking Syria again. He has made his statement.
