There were compelling reasons why the Chinese opp

President Donald Trump shows the world who's the boss who pay the bill in his first address to the United Nations General Assembly. As the largest contributor of U.N. operating expenses, the president told the world body to reform to "Make the United Nations Great" - but not "again" - suggesting tha
Some were terrified when North Korea fired a ballistic missile over their head. Some were excited to see if U.S. would finally launch a pre-emptive military strike. But very few ask the burning and critical question - why didn't the military superpower U.S. shoot down Fatboy Kim's missile? The real

The next time you go to the famous but pricey toy store - Toys "R" Us - don't be surprise if you couldn't find one. Even if you manage to find the store, chances are there could be lesser toys than usual, or worse still, rows of empty shelves. You could either rush for whatever toys leftover which y
After Fatboy Kim successful fired an intermediate-range missile - for the second time - over Japan reaching the distance of 3,700 kilometres (2,300 miles) and a maximum height of 770 kilometres (478 miles), it was pretty much game over. Guam is now within range of a North Korean missile strike. If t
On the same day Fatboy Kim Jong-un fired a missile over Japan powerful enough to strike U.S. military base Guam, Britain is being hit by yet another terror attack. An explosion at London Tube station during Friday morning's rush hour has so far injured 23 people. The blast sent a "fireball" and a "w
South Koreans have gotten used to it. But it's a totally different game to the Japanese. During the World War II, terrified people would rush for cover as blaring sirens signalled incoming Imperial Japanese Army's bombardment. Now, the role is reversed. Millions of terrified Japanese were rudely awa
From the moment Donald Trump said he would block Muslims from entering the U.S. to the moment the U.S. president's (initial) refusal to denounce white nationalists after the Charlottesville rally-turned-violence, Hollywood has been screaming until foaming at the mouth about Trump's racism.

If you think Luigi Brugnaro, the Mayor of Venice, is a badass for telling Italian police to shoot anyone shouting "Allahu Akhbar", chances are you haven't met Duterte. Philippine President Rodrigo “Rody” Roa Duterte, who's also known as the "Dirty Harry" of the east, is notorious for his mission [...]
Less than 1 week after U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson praised North Korea for showing "restraint" in its weapons program, the hermit kingdom fired a series of 3 short-range ballistic missiles - deliberately launched in the midst of the U.S. and South Korea's annual military exercises.

Najib Razak, after spending millions of dollars lobbying, has finally secured a face-to-face audience with Donald Trump. We can pretty much predict the outcome of the meet-up, scheduled on September 12, about 2 weeks from now. This is perhaps the biggest victory to the Malaysian prime minister, ever [...]

China is a nation of endless possibilities. So be careful who you might offend.
