Obama, the great ‘White’ leader of the US

Obama, in his own way, is really a great leader. To those who did not know him or the history of American violence and excesses they would believe in everything he said in Vietnam. He is a black President who could tell a white lie and still did not turn white in the face.

This is what he told the Vietnamese, ‘Vietnam is an independent and sovereign nation, and no other nation can impose its will on you.’ And the Agencies in its report cheekily sneaked this in, ‘And despite a history in which the US tried violently to impose its will on this nation, Mr Obama said no other country should try such a strategy.’ Maybe Obama was saying it out of the experience of Americans trying but failed to do so.

But he did not give up. He added, ‘the US was not trying to impose its form of government on Vietnam but said some values were universal.’

Did he managed to convince the Vietnamese of the American virtues or was it a case of two countries finding a common enemy and a common interest so everything is fine and lovely? Did the Vietnamese say ‘walla, walla’ behind his back? But that is not important. The media are all praising how successful his trip was to Vietnam, to bury 50 years of war trying to impose an American rule over Vietnam.

Oh Obama also said inter state problems must not be solved by wars but by negotiation. Who is starting wars, agitating wars and fighting wars all over the world? No prize for guessing the right answer. And Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for being a President for Peace! Stop laughing ok?

    But that was shortly after he was elected President of USA, tio bo?

    I am sure even Chee Soon Juan will be awarded many prizes (of course not Nobel Peace Prize lah) had he been elected as Bukit Batok MP on May 7.

    Achieve something and get elected too, and your achievements will look even greater, so as to win prizes.

  5. India after all the shoutings finally realised the real benefits can only come from China. All the big talks about how great and powerful India is comes to nought.
    Now India's President is in China for more trade and investment talks. These are the real stuff that countries need to prosper, not buying arms and wasting money to go to war, conducting silly war games, military exercises and freedom of navigation.
    China's OBOR can simply skip and bypass India through Myanmar and Pakistan.
    India cannot talk itself to greatness and richness. It needs money and investments.

    Singapore s reputation is in shit. Have people thought of this. Indon criminal sent back recently could pocket $632millions by running away from Indon bank and into Singapore in 2008, and live as a PR till Indon wanted him back this month.
    The money in BSI known as laundering was small sums, 2 digits millions, but with lots of accounts. (refer to swiss info for more details).

    When Finma prosecute BSI staff, Singapore s parts cannot be hidden. What a good governance in Singapore. Agree?
    Still want to shout at China, Singapore s most heavy investment destination.

    Coming up next is the domestic sectors?

    See the algebraic equation below:

    It is self-explanatory

    Y = [1/1-c1][c0+I(0)+d1Y-d2i+G-c1(T)]

    X is not in eqn to "isolate" the illustration to the domestic sector

    But X down will ( ultimately ) pull down c0, I(0), d1Y etc => Y down => another round of falling demand => falling production => falling employment => higher retrenchment => higher unemployment => falling GDP => falling demand => another round of vicious cycle?

    The equation on aggregate output is subject to multiplier effect. The net effect of xport-import will reduce the Y. Retrenchment will reduce savings and investment (eg starting production units or invest in equipment). Domestic suppliers will get smaller consumption C.

    In your equation, u need to note 2 factors hidden.
    First is the high government debts above 100% gdp. Forced investing on govt cpf will reduce the consumption and also reduce the investment in economy. The higher the cpf (mini sums raise) the lower the aggregate Y, the higher the hdp flats prices, the lower the Y due to lower C and Savings/Investment.
    Second is the high private household debts. Abv 80% of GDP means reduced C and also I.

    In conclusion: there will not be high growth in all future years. My estimate is around 1-2% and most years are stagnant or negative when export is going south. No increase in salaries when Pap releases more E passes to reduce personal income and increase retrenchment on citizens (replacement). They have 10millions population. This is Pap way to increase Y, but not increasing individual income.

    As individual income is not increase. Individual capital per worker will be decreasing due to more population. It leads to what i said lower individual salary.
    Worst: lower and lower capital per worker, the lower the investment on productivity. eg no money, people walk and not taking mrt to work. Put one day can only do so little things without a car or motobike. This is what it leads to . pap is leading singaporeans to suicide with 10 millions population.
    Got the point?

    1. // Individual capital per worker will be decreasing due to more population. It leads to what i said lower individual salary.//


      Aiyo ..... talk talk better use math or algebraic equation easier lah:

      The capital stock per-worker that maximizes consumption per-worker with population growth and technological progress can be given by:

      MPK = (n + g + δ )

      where MPK = marginal product of capital
      n = labour growth
      g = technological progress
      δ = physical capital depreciation rate

      This is called the GR level of capital per effective worker.

      Long run consumption will not be maximised when the steady-state of capital per effective worker is below the GR level.

    Really population increase maximise golden rule consumption per worker?
    Population increase does decrease capital per worker. Same effect as depreciation rate.

    If u want to increase capital per worker, ie to maximise consumption per worker, u must find way to increase the investment in capital per worker to replace the losses cause by the 2 factors. Higher and higher cpf savings into govt will not increase the investment per worker. Why?
    investment per worker is affected by the saving rate per worker where money can be reinvested in equipment and the worker s output or his income.

  27. Anon 5:57pm

    Wp is the right party. I recommend Wp because WP's blue paper advised public to cap population increase to the maxi level at 5.9millions. No increase to 7 millions as pap white paper proposed.

    After the white papers approval, i believe WP has it economy policy correct. Population increase to 10 millions will kill citizens capital to re invest into their productivity output. The more the population, the less the income per worker, the less the worker can re invest his savings into productive tools.

    Pap is trying to mislead the population into increasing to 10 millions. It will not be reversible if Pap can succeed to do so.
    WP is the right party to vote for, for those smart voters like me. U like pap, please vote for pap.

    U put in the equations. U dont know what your equations mean for?
    I used your equations to explain to readers.
    The rest forget about it since u dont know the details.

    Rent out flat is pap s so called methods for those who lost their jobs to new foreigners. If it is working fine, there should not need u to explain.

    Pap last term s due date was supposed to be in 2017. But the GE was in 2015 after one old man died. U know why it needed to do that.

    Which old man can draw votes to 70% in future GE? Care to highlight this factor?

    The reliable measurement is 61% in recent GE.

    I think the past split of 60% vs 40% is the norm for future GE. The swing to opposition will come from poor economic performance becomes a "new normal".

    I do not follow what u spoke about teochew etc. I think these are genuine humans. They can do good jobs by winning in last GE. Their party can continue to add on with new comers to increase their seats. I dont belittle people who won and get elected. I think u are not even close to those u tried to belittle by calling them names. U thought u or all pap mp can be above them in abilities? I can tell u this: if they are no good, at least 2 of the pap ministers needed not lost their minister jobs. U belittling is like a mirror on yourself and pap which has the habit of talking people down called gutter politics. Gutter politics is no longer acceptable among young voters. U wanna be those old hacks similar to old fart? Many are dead. Time has changed. Learn to respect opposition. They can save singapore. Pap can ruin singapore with 7-10 millions foreigners.
