Yahoo has finally sold itself away to Verizon Communications for merely US$4.83 billion. Only time will tell if the purchase is a great deal, or a waste of money. Verizon, America’s biggest wireless company, plans to merge Yahoo with AOL, a company it bought last year for a cool US$4.4 billion – cash. Clearly, […]
... written on Aug 02 2016Conservative leadership candidate Andrea Leadsom proves she’s an easy meat and does not have the strength, experience or stamina to become British next prime minister. She has announced she is pulling out of the race to replace David Cameron. The junior Energy Minister’s latest dramatic move means Home Secretary Theresa May is given a walkover. […]
... written on Jul 11 2016Brexit didn’t merely change the political landscape of European Union but also that of United Kingdom.

... written on Jul 09 2016From hero to zero – that was the best description for Boris Johnson, the former Mayor of London who was backstabbed by his friend. He was brave, bold and a Brexiteer who brought down Prime Minister David Cameron. He was the favourite to become Britain’s next prime minister, but like “Game of Thrones”, he was […]

... written on Jun 29 2016Britain has voted to leave the European Union, a historic decision which would be known as the kingdom’s Independence Day – from the EU’s colonization since 1973.
