SGX in intensive care...panic cries for intervention

After more than 20 years of hiatus, with the stock market allowed to wither on its own, with no one bothering to ask why, to want to know, panic cries for action to save the stock market are now getting louder. Strangely, no one knows that the stock market is in intensive care for so long and finally there is enlightenment, awareness that it is dying? 

SGX used to be in number position in the region or competing with Hong Kong to be number one. Today, it is even smaller than Bangkok and Jakarta and even far away in the wilderness, Auckland, New Zealand. Anyone know where is Auckland or New Zealand, islands where there are more sheep than human beans. Not that no one has been talking about it. Not that there were no signs of the decline of the stock market and a once blooming industry heading into the sunset. These happened not today, not yesterday. It happened decades ago. Rip Van Winkle just woke up from a long hibernation.

And what is it all about in the cries for action? The sounds are there, but the direction is heading no where. No one wants to see the truth or wants to know the truths. All talks of emptiness and not wanting to address the real situation, the real cause of the problem and decline. Training and more training will help. Get the horses jockeys in the Turf Club to go for more training. Oops, where to race when there is no Turf Club?

When they brought in derivative trading and computer and algo trading, the war cry and optimism was liquidity. These instruments and new trading platform would improve trading liquidity by leaps and bounds. Business would be roaring with huge turnovers. Really?  No one cares about the dangerous and fictitious trading of the these instruments, about the unfair trading, unfair advantages they have in the market against every trader big and small. When trading is unfair, loaded in favour of computer algo trading operators, the other players did not have a chance.

It is like placing a few vacuum cleaners in the stock market and turning them into full blast, sucking up everything in the market. No, not true?

Never mind, the super talents paid in the millions know better and will solve the problem when they put their hands and minds into it. Never mind that it has taken more than two decades to rot and the worms are crawling out into the open and cannot be hidden and dismissed as nothing to it. Training would solve everything. Go for more training and more courses.

The stock market would be saved. They are starting to talk about saving it and a Singapore miracle is about to happen. Surely they know what is the real problem. Oops, think they did not know and have been asking the public for answers. This is the real frightening part. When people paid in the millions did not know, how to expect the hoi polloi to know?

The Chinese Dragon Spirit and China's 75th National Day Anniversary

Congraduations & Well wishes to China's 75TH National Day Anniversary On this China's 75th National Day Anniversry let all Chinese people remember that without this Chinese Dragon Spirit China would not have been able to see and witness the proud Chinese nation standing tall and glorious above the chaotic and tumultuous world fomented and engineeered by the evil Anglo-Saxon United States and its gang of savage allies. The Chinese Dragon Spirit has been with the Chinese people and nation since time immemorial for thousands of milleniums. All Chinese people wherever they may be whether in China or overseas are endowed with the vigour of the powerful Dragon Spirit. Without the fighting vigour and spirit of the Chinese Dragon Spirit China would not have been able to survive the hundred over years of Western aggression and invasion from 1830s to 1940s; the Japanese aggression and invasion from 1931 to 1945 and the American aggression from the 1930s to the present. It was the Chinese Dragon Spirit that spurred the Chinese to endure and overcome all odds and difficulties in overcoming and defeating all diabolical foreign invaders. It was also the dragon spirit that alerted and enabled all patriotic Chinese to seize and destroy internal traitors like Chiang Kai Shek and his lawless gang of bandits. It was the Dragon Spirit that goaded Chairman Mao and his 12,000 PLA volunteers to undertake the Long Much of ten thousand miles to the safe haven at Yenan in Shanxi Province to escape encirclemment by Chiang and the Americans who kept on bombing the communist army. The Long March was tortuous and dangerous as Chairman and his army of followers had to cross hundreds of rivers and snow covered mountains as well as through marshlands infested with dangerous snakes and mosquitoes. They had to take convoluted paths moving westward from Hokkien Province, through Kweizhou and Yunnan and then northward through Chinghai, Szechwan, Gangsu and finally Yenan in Shanxi province. Only about 8,000 survived the epic Long March when they finally arrived in Yenan, Shanxi. Remnants of Chiang's gang of bandits now exist in Taiwan as the DPP under US protection and control. They too will be defeated and destroyed sooner or later and Taiwan will then be reunited with the mainland motherland. The Chinese Dragon Spirit is with the Chinese everywhere and in whatever endeavour, plans or undertakings they intend to do. The power of the Chinese Dragon Spirit is always there in the sports field, in science and technology, in computer science and cyber, in semiconductors and micro chips manufacturing, in infrastructures like HSR and ship building as well as in quantum computing, rocket and missiles, AI and space station technology. In many and in fact in most of these fields China now outstripped and outclassed all Western countries inclusive of US and Japan inspite of US/Western sanctions and blockades. In the Chinese 75th National Day Anniversary China and the Chinese people are really blessed with the progress and advancement in all these important fields of human endeavour. The Chinese Dragon Spirit was highly stirred during the tumultuous and dangerous years of Japanese invasion and in the Korean War 1950 to 1953. Fortified with the spirit of the Chinese Dragon spirit Chairman Mao Tse-Tung and his comrade in arms and his army of volunteers and the PLA - People's Liberation Army defeated all the enemies. These victories enabled China to evolve with greater strength and energy and with greater resolve and vibrant spirit. Immediately after the establishment of the People's Republic of China the Chinese Dragon Spirit forwarned Chairman Mao Tse-Tung, Premier Zhou En Lai and their core members in the central government to waste no time in undertaking crash programmes like The Great Leap Forward in scientific and technological development to forestall dangers ahead from enemies on all fronts from United States and its Western allies and also from unknown sources. Even eminent patriotic Chinese nuclear and rocket scientists and engineers were aroused with the dragon spirit to return home from overseas to the motherland China to help China progress and develop quickly technologically and scientifically to strengthen and protect China from potential enemies. They in turn over the years taught and trained endless thousands of young Chinese students to become great scientists, engineers and technologists in their own fields of endeavour. This greatly jumpstart China's effort to build nuclear weapons like the atomic and hydrogen bombs, the missiles and rockets, all of which enhance China's safety and security by detering potential aggressors and trouble makers. The Chinese Dragon Spirit again was in great play during the Cultural Revolution in the 1960s. The Chinese administration was infiltrated with many officials influenced by toxic American thoughts and ideologies and also by adulterated Russian communist ideas and ideology. Many agitated to follow the hollow and fake American democracy and decadent life styles. Chairman Mao saw the danger that such bourgeoise thoughts would derail his plan for the correct path of Chinese socialist development and advancement and thus will again lead China to danger and failure. Chairman Mao therefore instituted the Cultural Revolution to get rid of traitors to the cause and ideals of Chinese communist and socialist government. If Chairman Mao had not used the Cultural Revolution to weed out all the traitors and American spies and disruptors China today might not have been able to progress so fast and be able now to celebrate with pomp and glory the 75th China National Day Anniversary on Tuesday, 1st October, 2024. It was the great Chinese Dragon Spirit which imbued in Chairman Mao and the Chinese Communist Party that ensured the enlightening success of China today. In the midst of this celebration of success of the Chinese Communist Revolution on this 75th National Day Anniversary the Chinese people and nation must not forget the great invaluable selfless contributions by millions of Chinese peasants, proletariats, revolutionary volunteers and fighters, soldiers, the intelligentsia, scientists, engineers, technologists and patriotic artists like music composers and patriotic song writers as well as Professor Lee Da Chow, Professor Chen Du Hsiu and Chai Yan Pei the Principal and chancellor of Peking University from 1915 to 1930s who were the initiators of the communist cause and the peers of Mao Tse-Tung. On this Tuesday, 1st October, 2024, as China and the Chinese people joyfully celebrate China's 75th National Day Anniversary with pomp and great formidable Dragon Spirit, Southernglory1 and all overseas Chinese compatriots will jointly celebrate the occasion with pride and joyful vibrant spirit. Let's toast to the glorious People's Republic of China, the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the ever presence and inspiration of the Chinese Dragon Spirit. Following this article below please enjoy two videos which add to the vibrant and glorious spirit of China's 75th National Day Anniversary celebration. The free world especially BRICS and all countries of the South celebrate Chinese National day in brotherhood with China and the Chinese people as they consider the success of China's fortune in development is also the success and fortune for all countries of the South led by BRICS as China's selflessly help them to develop and rise up technologically and scientifically with growth in wealth and ever forward looking success.

Weaponisation of dollar, consumer items....next would be food and drinks

Do not worry about the Americans and the white men. They are angels. They do not kill wantonly, recklessly, senselessly. They even warned the world about using Chinese technology that would spy on the users and harm the users. They are so kind and protective, so caring?

What happened in Lebanon did not need any explanation. It is the most cruel and indiscriminate attack on civilians, women and children. It is mass terrorism. Only the most daft would not see it this way. It is the weaponisation of consumer items that are used commercially by private inidividuals, by anyone. And who were behind this mass murder? Dunno? Are you that stupid?

The murderers of this crime against humanity are the exact people warning about using Chinese technology. They are the people behind it, using technology to harm the innocent civilians. This precedent would lead to severe repercussion in the world about safety of equipment and consumer items. Many orders are now pouring into China for manufacturing of electronic goods with specific instructions that not a single western part must be used, and the whole production process must be done in China for the safety of these goods. Even the supply chain must be fully and carefully controlled, not to be intercepted by the West to plant dangerous explosives, poison or listening devices in them.

China is now the most dependable, reliable and safe manufacturer and supplier of consumer goods. This is in direct contrast to the smear and lies spread by the Americans and the West that Chinese goods are not safe. It is the other way round. All American and western products are NOT safe for use. Either they listen on you, spy on you or may have explosives or harmful items embedded in them.

Throw away all western manufactured devices and goods for your own safety, including iPhones and Apple products.

The next hideous step would be the weaponisation of food and drinks. Oh, they have already weaponised medicine and drugs. For the ignorants, think about the fake and dangerous mRNA vaccines during the Pandemic.

When food and drinks are weaponised, the bottle of Coke you are about to drink, the hamburger or chips or Coffeebean, Starbuck coffee, beware, beware. They may not be what they are. The world is going to be a very dangerous place when these terrorists and maniacs have their ways. And these are many many times more dangerous than the terrorists they claimed to be their enemies and your enemies. These are the real terrorists of the world, state terrorists, protected by the Americans and the West, with the Americans using their veto right in the UN to keep these terrorists safe and to continue to terrorise the rest of the world. 

Be warned, the food, water, aids and medicine going into Gaza for the Palestinians must be carefully controlled and checked. They could be spiked or poisoned, just like the days when the Europeans were genociding the native Americans by offering blankets and clothing infected with European diseases to kill them en masse. The Palestinians in Gaza are living dangerously when their food and water are out of their control.

MSM - Obnoxious characters know but pretended not to know

 This obnoxious character knows, but for propaganda purposes he just pretended not to know. When one is paid to spout propaganda, nothing is more important than toeing the line, including fabrication, like in Iraq.

It is all a game. The MSM pretended not to know what went on before the Ukraine War started. What atrocities were committed by the Ukrainians against the Russian speaking people in Eastern Ukraine is nonexistent. The only mantra they are spouting is that Russia invaded Ukraine for no apparent reason. Dr David Oualaalou, a political analyst, always say that nothing ever happens in a vacuum. And to think that even the 'Principled One' choose to believe in all that propaganda is testament to how deceptive it can be.

It is the same with the war in the Middle East, between Israel and Palestine. The war started with the Hamas strike on Israel on October 7, 2023, for no reason they also claimed. Nothing that happened before that is important and can be deleted from history. The seizure of Palestinian lands to build Israel settlements ongoing for years is not important. The sufferings of the Palestinians being evicted is not important. The real genocides committed by the Israelis in Gaza is not important, while fake genocides in Xinjiang is important.

Now the war in the Middle East is escalating with the invasion of Lebanon on the cards. Will there be another front for more genocides? Looks imminent.

Virgo's morning bread

 Good morning All

Our principled One in the U.N. called for the stoppage of The Dumb Five what's VETO powers that overides the Majority Votes of the Rest of the 188 nations which 150 plus might voted for cessation to the end or ceasefires to the wars or conflicts.

Also now that lame Dick oops apology Duck Sexretary also woke up angrily to condemn the mess.

Of he is just dramas and wayang?

The Nations of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea should intervene straightaway into the senseless Genoide in the M.E.

What's the Peace Keeping or Sleeping UN Forces are for?

Their Main Role is to be the Arbitrator and the Force to stop the conflicts and wars.

Now M.I.A ah?

Then have China, Russia and the North Koreans in to be the Peace Keeping NOT Sleeping Force then.

Big powerful Nations like China and Russia do not raise their fingers to help just talks and threats are useless.

Actions spoke louder than words.

Now the UAss and their hordes of Barbarians and Savages are running amok and you all don't step in to help and fight, they be brazen and thought that they Ruled the Universe.

So China don't just think of making monies lah, do your part and teach these Scoundrols a bitter pay back time.

These Whites are just posturing gang bullies and are cowards lah!

Show your mettle China and Russia and Kim.

Cheers

Football is not just talent and brawn, and wishful thinking. It is GIGO!

 Still trying to flog the almost dead football horse after so many decades of failure. Goal 2010 was when Singapore was supposed to qualify for the 2010 World Cup in Africa, according to the tall tales teller. That tale was narrated in 1998, twelve years before the 2010 World Cup. What happened?

Football is not a sport that Singapore will be able to excel because the whole world is taking part. We could not even win consistently within ASEAN against the Thais, Malaysians and Indonesians. How far can we go? How much money have been thrown into the black hole without any tinge of a reasonable return. Goal 2010 was just a fairy tale. Even Goal 2100 is an elusive dream.

There are sports that nobody wants to participate in, and Singapore may well stand a chance. Sure, we do have once in 50 years achievements out of the blue, but those are the odd chances, not the norm.

American democracy working at home?

 Democracy is a system made for the top 1%, by the 1% and for the 1%, with all the wealth accumulated in their hands. The rest of the 90%, give or take the remaining 9% are still relatively wealthy, are not benefiting from the democratic system over the centuries. In fact, poverty, homelessness, drug infestation are getting worse rather than better.

The USA had all the advantages of prosperity for all, having the privilege to print toilet papers at will, but still is unable to eradicate poverty at the bottom of the food chain. Democracy had the ideal of being a system that cares for all, rich or poor, the human rights accorded to them to have a decent life of adequate housing, healthcare and food (not from soup kitchens), but it seems that has now been hijacked to caring only for the super-rich to enable them to get even richer. From millionaires the became billionaires and now breeding a few trillionaires to boot. Is such a system sustainable?

Anglo-Saxons US and UK terrorists thinking of which country to attack every day

 China, Russia, Iran , North Korea and all countries of the South better be wise and be prepared for war which the desperate US and its savage allies will impose on them anytime and at any moment.

The Anglo-Saxons US and UK have nothing better to do than thinking of which country to attack and which country to fight every day in the first break of dawn. They are leading their Western allies and Japan in the same aggressive bellicose confrontational way against China and Russia as well as against Iran and North Korea and the rest of the countries of the South so as to maintain the hegemony of the West headed by the evil United States and UK.

The white European countries headed by US and UK were accustomed to bullying, attacking and invading other non-white countries with impunity for the last five hundred years. As they were endorsed and supported in their aggressions and wanton irrational wars on others by their Christian faith, their Christian God, Jesus Christ they were very much emboldened. They thought it was natural for them the chosen race or chosen people of God to trample on other people.

Now they want to treat China in the same way as before in the 19th century - treating China and the Chinese people with same derision and irrational contempt. However, in their frenzy for wanting to bring China down again they choose to forget that the China of the 21st century is not the same as the China of the 18th century. Today's China is a mighty vibrant energetic Dragon with nuclear teeth that is ready and prepared to
breathe down the fire of death to all Western warmongers and aggressors that are so blind as not to realise the truth. Any Western country or a combination of all Western countries will meet their nemesis in their diabolical plot to start an irrational war against China. This I have mentioned many times in my previous articles on the matter
