Crisis
The reputation of Myanmar’s pro-democracy icon – Aung San Suu Kyi – is in tatters for her failure to condemn her country’s so-called “clearing operations” in Rakhine State. Once a darling of the West, her portrait was even removed last month from public display by Oxford University UK, the same college she studied politics, philosophy […]
... written on Oct 19 2017Irina Bokova, the outgoing UNESCO chief, has every reason to be ashamed of her leadership. The world body is about to lose a fifth (22%) of its funding after the United States announced that it is withdrawing from the United Nations Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) – accusing the body of “anti-Israel bias”. And Israel […]
... written on Oct 13 2017Remember how we told you about the good-cop-bad-cop roles being played by China and Russia to ensure the survivability of Fat Boy Kim Jong-un, or rather the “Rocket Man” as what U.S. President Trump likes to call the North Korean leader these days? Well, the drama has shifted into high gear, making it more obvious […]
... written on Oct 06 2017Russia is frustrated because the Syrian War has ended and the Daesh (ISIS, ISIL, IS) was supposed to be eliminated ages ago. Somehow, the annoying terrorists refuse to fade away, and Kremlin knew the reason. The Russian has accused the U.S. forces of providing intelligence to the Daesh Takfiri terrorists in eastern Syria, accusing Washington […]
... written on Oct 06 2017Tillerson, the former CEO of Exxon and former president of the Boy Scouts, is perhaps one of very few in the White House who could survive Trump administration. After all, like Donald Trump, Rex Tillerson was the corporate guy who should have no issue clicking with the U.S. president. As long as he keeps his […]
... written on Oct 05 2017Spain’s King Felipe VI has spoken – that Catalan leaders have broken the laws of the state. He called their behaviour “irresponsible”, “lack of loyalty”, “disrespect to the powers of the state”, and risking the country’s economic stability. But the king didn’t say what a king should say – about police brutality and the need for […]
... written on Oct 04 2017Stephen Paddock was a high-stakes gambler recognized in the casinos of Nevada. More importantly, he was a self-made millionaire who dabbled in real estate investments in Texas. Divorced twice (in 1980 and 1990), 64-year-old Mr. Paddock was a retired accountant, having had his full-time employment 30 years ago. And he owned 2 single-engine planes. Living in […]
... written on Oct 03 2017Malaysia is the only country on planet Earth which has not one, not two but a jaw-dropping nine (9) monarchies. And if you care to add the “Yang di-Pertuan Agong” or simply the King, who is elected every 5 years among themselves, there are actually ten (10) monarchies in a country with population of only […]
... written on Sep 28 2017Trump has shown to the world, again, how dumb a U.S. president could be if he tries hard enough. Donald Trump is so dumb that he probably didn’t realized that he had issued a declaration of war on North Korea when he went ballistic at his first appearance at the United Nations General Assembly last […]
... written on Sep 26 2017Dotard – that’s the jaw-dropping word unleashed by Kim Jong-un. Instead of a missile, the Switzerland-educated North Korean dictator fired a rarely used word at United States. Like North Korea ballistic missiles, the word was so deadly that Americans were scrambled for dictionaries. It surely sounds like “retard” so the actual meaning couldn’t be too […]
