Qatar attacked, another big theatre. Who are the masked actors?

 The attack was conducted by 10 or 15 aircraft outside Qatar airspace. If you look at the map and see how small Qatar is, Qatar has virtually no airspace to talk about, surrounded by Saudi Arabia on its west, Kuwait, Jordan and Iraq on its north. These are the airspace that the Israeli aircraft would have flown past to reach Qatar. They cannot come from Iran in the east.

Netanyahu made a slip by saying that Israeli aircraft did not violate any country's airspace. They cannot have come down from heaven, right? As no American aircraft carrier was nearby, two possibilities are left. As Israeli pilots were not trained to take off from aircraft carrier, any aircraft coming from aircraft carrier must be flown by the Americans.

The Israelis cannot fly the aircraft across Saudi, Jordanian or Iraqi airspace without being undetected. Qatar PM claimed that Israeli aircraft came undetected because of special technology is bull. The comment made Qatar's position very suspicious. The Israelis could have deployed their aircraft earlier in American bases in Saudi Arabia or Kuwait, allowing them to fly direct to Qatar without violating these airspaces, as permission was deemed granted. Because of the long overflight across Saudi, Jordan and Iraqi airspaces, if flown from Israel, this is not a desirable option. The three countries would not allow it and it would require air to air refuelling in their airspace.

Another option, the attacking aircraft were American aircraft flown by American pilots from American bases in Saudi Arabia or Kuwait. Possible? This option is the most efficient and practical, the nearest to Qatar, and can fly low level to avoid radar detection. Flying from Israel is very unlikely.

Who are the real devils that are wearing masks and looking so innocent. There are many American aircraft in Qatar itself. Who was there in the air to identify the aircraft? They could also be repainted with Israeli emblems and insignias just for this mission, like they did in the past wars.

What is the real part played by Qatar in this theatre? They are now blowing hot and cold like real but taking no real action against the Israelis, all words and words. And the likely devil is so silent, so innocent, only regretting the attack, saying that it would not happen again.

What is real and what is false? The only part that is real are the bombs and the victims. Make your guess.

Singapore invites India to patrol Malacca Strait

 This is top news in China. Singapore invited India to patrol the Malacca Strait. Everyone knows how sensitive is the Malacca Strait to China. No need to elaborate on this. 

Since Lawrence Wong made his visit to China and met up with Xi, like what Marcos Junior did, Singapore's every action is looking like following the path of the Philippines against China. And now this invitation to India to the Asean region, to guard the Malacca Strait. Asean's position has been very clear and repeated over and over again, to remain neutral and to keep the big powers from interfering in Asean affair, in the Asean region. The US and Japan had made the same proposal before, to want to patrol the Malacca Strait, the waters of Indonesia and Malaysia, not Singapore, and were rejected by both countries.

The Malacca Strait is not only sensitive to Indonesia and Malaysia. Both regard the Strait as their territorial waters and have the most speaking right on this matter. The big question, did Singapore do this on its own initiative or on someone's directive? Did Singapore seek the consent of Indonesia or Malaysia before inviting India to patrol the Malacca Strait?

Indonesia is Asean's biggest power, and Malaysia is also a big partner, both Muslim states while India is anti Muslim. Enough said. Why would Indonesia and Malaysia agree to bring a big power, with super power ambition and openly claimed the Indian Ocean, to mug around in the waters of Indonesia and Malaysia? Would Indonesia and Malaysia be willing to play second fiddle to the Indians in their backyard, their territorial waters?

Just hope and pray that Singapore did ask the Indonesians and Malaysians and they both agreed to allow the anti Muslim Indians to guard their doorstep. Likely?

What do you think?

Indonesia, Nepal and Hong Kong rioting - Same modus operandi, same pattern, same style

My initial reaction regarding the protest in Indonesia brings immediately to mind that some outside enemy had instigated that protest and the USA, CIA and its offspring, the NED, immediately come to mind. It was never a domestically grown protest as designated by the West. It was externally instigated. And I am not going to think that the Nepal protest now erupting has no connection to the USA.

Consolidating my suspicion, I came across this video today on Youtube by Nury Vittachi on his site 'Friday Everyday' about why and what caused the very timely protest in Indonesia. Of course, those reasons will never see the light of day in the Western media. The CIA and NED fingerprints were all over as disclosed by Nury Vittachi.

One narrative is even coming out with claims that the protest is all because of China, just because it invited Prabowo to attend the Victory Day Parade. The Western MSM and pro-USA social media sites are bound to regurgitate the same vomit and what is the real purpose? To target China clear and simple. Direct confrontation against China is not working, so the USA is using another route. Nepal is also facing the same thing. Nepal's leader attended the Victory Day Parade as well and stands to be punished. Perhaps they will yet again spin the narrative that it is all due to China.

Having said that, China must be very concerning regarding the safety of Chinese Nationals in Indonesia and is urging the Indonesian Authorities to protect Chinese safety. Indonesia has been known to be anti-Chinese before, so any misinformation or disinformation or a false flag will turn the Muslims against the Chinese once again.

Trump is going to make the mother of all deals with Modi, and kiss Modi in front of the camera

Modi just step off the plane after the SCO meeting and is already making a beeline for the USA. Trump will ask Modi - 'What did you hear from Putin and Xi regarding the SCO?'

Modi's marbles are caught between a rock and a hard place. Modi needs cheap Russian oil to fuel India's economy. However, Modi also needs to depend on the US$ to trade with other countries, as the Indian Rupee is not acceptable, even by Russia. In other words, the USA has a leash around Modi's neck, to ensure Modi does not run off too far. After debriefing his two-legged dog, Trump may just lower his tariffs on India - even praising Modi for his meritorious service to the USA and praising Modi as 'Good dog', LOL. Here, this is your bone to chew on.

That will give Trump much to boast about with his big, beautiful, constructive, productive, unheard of and history making deal with India. Trump may even fall in love with Modi: having written love letters to Modi. And they will live together happily ever after. What else could go wrong when two snakes fall in love with each other?

Trump is kicking all the stray dogs, but they are all crawling back to lick his paws

South Korea, the bosom friend of the USA, is facing what Henry Kissinger warned about by being one of USA's friends. It is a fatal friendship. It is just like putting one's head into the lion's mouth hoping not to lose it.

Now, the ICE raid at Hyundai manufacturing facility in Georgia, leading to the arrest of more than 300 workers is unfolding. The South Korean Government is scrambling to contain the situation. South Korean citizens have not yet got into the fray, but knowing South Korea's citizen's militant mindset, this is not going to rest well with them. Unlike the Japanese, they fight till the end, not taking it lying down. South Korea President, Lee Jae-Myung has a hot potato on his hands to handle.

What about TSMC having workers seconded from Taiwan at its Chip manufacturing facilities in Arizona? Exempted perhaps, but not possible now if others are being targeted. The genie is out of the bottle and putting it into the bottle is now impossible. Such raids will have to continue all over the USA. What about SK Hynix having many manufacturing facilities across the USA? I am sure SK Hynix has the same worker recruiting process as Hyundai, being from South Korea.

Trump is in reality pushing South Korea into a corner. Will South Korea join BRICS as some have been talking about on social media. Not likely, as South Korea had indicated it supported those sanctions against Russia, but do not implement them itself. Double talk perhaps? I do not think Putin will agree having South Korea in BRICS.

When a push comes to a shove, some counties just cave in to USA pressure, just like India. Modi is now trying to be chummy once again after Trump tells him that India is always USA's friend. Modi is just a stray dog, looking for a master to adopt. Modi has put his other foot back on the USA boat now, playing the same game as before.

Some Indians on social media are asking - Can Xi be trusted' after the SCO meeting in Tianjin. The correct question ought to be - Can Modi be trusted? Now we know the answer.

Americans keep lying about their military prowess, like decimating the Red Indians and Afghan herders

It is honestly an embarrassment to even talk about the USA military losing its war against the Vietcong and Taliban farmers, with all the touted aerial superiority, weapons and even the use of biological weapons at its disposal.

Gloating about the WW2 victory over Hitler was just hitching a ride on the effort put in by the Soviet Union, suffering 26 million casualties, while the allies just moved in at the last moment to take the credit. It was an embarrassment trying to gloat that the allies suffered just a small number of casualties. Of course, when someone else does all the hard work leading to the defeat of Hitler, going in when Hitler was already retreating says nothing about taking credit for a hollow victory. And they celebrated the event as having saved Europe, keeping the Russians away from the celebrations in case they let the cat out of the bag. Nevertheless, this fact had already been clearly exposed by Sergei Lavrov, which the MSM will never come clean by reporting it.

If you watch the video of Trump's military parade held not long ago, it really is another big embarrassment. Those that took part were literally uninterested, just going through the motions and marching like old uncles and aunties representing the residents of an old folk's home, almost lifeless and facing end of days. That must be the most lifeless military parade in history.

Qatar strikes back at Israel with missiles ... the end of Israel

 This day could be the turning point in Israel's bullying of the Arabs and Muslims in the Middle East. Striking at Doha to kill Hamas leaders is a violation of Qatar's sovereignty, an act of war. Qatar is now forced to hit back or lose all credibility in the eyes of its own people and the Arab and Muslim world. What is the point of being rich and buying all the advanced military weapons?

Israel attacked Qatar with 15 aircraft, flying presumably from Israel, if not from American bases near Qatar. These aircraft cannot go undetected on its way to Qatar, would be seen on the radar screen. And the Americans have the biggest military base in Qatar, could see these aircraft and knock them down if they wanted to. They would not, as they were part of the invading force. The fallacy of American bases in the region to protect the host countries is looking freakish, a big empty lie. They are there to control these Arab countries, to help Israel to hit them if necessary, to protect and provide cover for the Israeli strike force.

The Israelis have been calling the shot in the Middle East, threatening every Arab and Muslim states. We will hit you, bomb you, kill your leaders, we will take over your land. The Arab and Muslim states could only keep quiet, in fear and in haplessness.

This attack on Qatar is telling the Arab and Muslim states to stop deluding themselves. What the Israelis have been saying will visit them anytime, like Qatar. And Qatar, a very small nation state, is strong enough to stand up against the Israeli aggression. It is striking back like Iran and the Houthis and the Hezbollah. When Qatar is brave enough to hit back, it makes the rest of the bigger Arab and Muslim states look real bad. It was reported that the Saudis have also joined the attack. This needs to be confirmed. And why not when Netanyahu publicly told the Israelis that he would seize Saudi land for Greater Israel?

The Arab and Muslim states must learn from Kim Jong Un, the wisest of the leaders today. Kim knows very well that the Americans will come after him once they have defeated Russia and China, just like the Israelis would go after the Arab and Muslim states once they have eaten up the Palestinians. Kim decisively took the position to support the Russians in the Ukraine War. It is better to fight now when there is a fighting chance, on the side of the Russians, than to fight alone in the future without the Russians.

The same moral story shall be clear to the Arab and Muslim states. Fight together now when there is a good chance of victory than to fight alone, one by one, to be swallowed up by the Israelis. They have the next few days to make the decision to join this war of survival, to take down the Israelis for good. And when they do that, when all the Arab and Muslim states join in, victory is withing their grasp. The bonus, Russia and China, Iran and Turkey would also join in to end this tragedy forever.

Wake up, Arab and Muslim countries. This is a chance of a lifetime. It will not come again if you still choose not to be in and let Qatar, Yemen, Lebanon and Syria fight without you. You owe it to your people and the whole Arab and Muslim world to join this fight. The stage for a final victory in your favour has been set. Do not miss this moment in time to change the course of history in your favour, in the favour of the Arab and Muslim world.

Qatar bombed - When you are weak, you deserve to be bombed

 America's attack dog, Israel, conducted air strike in Qatar against Hamas negotiating team, killing 6. Trump has full knowledge of the attack and gave the go ahead. And what did the UN and the Arab and Muslim world do? Talk cock as usual, condemnation, protest and making useless speeches. Do they make any difference? No, zilch. The attack dog of America will attack any Arab and Muslim country in the Middle East and Africa any time it likes, with the full protection and approval of the evil American Empire...because the Arab and Muslim states are weak, divided and did not have the will to fight back.

When are the Arab and Muslim states going to develop a spine to stand up to the aggression of the Americans and Israelis, to stop being bombed and killed? When are they going to stop crying and talking cock and let the Americans and Israelis keep treating them as trash, subhumans, to be decimated ultimately for Israel to take over their lands and rule over them?

China has suffered the same fate for a century, being weak and being attacked by everyone. The Americans simply bombed its embassy in Belgrade in 1999 and used an old map as an excuse and China could not do anything about it. The position of the Arab and Muslim states today is the same as China yesterday. China bit its tongue, swallowed its pride, but did not keep crying and talking cock. The Victory Parade on 3 Sep said it all. China buckled up, build a strong military force to tell the aggressors and terrorists that this would not happen again. China now is able to hit back, hard, should the state terrorists dare to attack China again.

The Arabs and Muslim states should stop crying like school kids, like losers. Do what is necessary, hit back if you can. If not now, build up your military strength, 3 years, 5 years, 10 years, to be strong and not be hit again. In fact, the combined forces of the Arab and Muslim world can flatten Israel in a few hours to end their tragic hapless existence, as punching bag for the American and Israeli terrorists. Do it now, if you want to survive and redeem whatever pride and dignity you still have as a people, as nation states. You have the capability, when united. Stop being silly and think you are safe because you are an ally of the American terrorists, or their friends. The Americans never regard any Arab and Muslim state as friends. They are dividing them, to take them out one at a time. The Americans and Israelis plan is complete domination and control of the Middle East.

Stop dreaming, stop fooling yourself and your people. Every Arab and Muslim state in the Middle East, and the world, is on the chopping block of the Americans and the Israelis. Stop talking, stop crying, act NOW to defend your rights, your countries and your people. You have been misled by the Americans and by your leaders that tomorrow will be better, you will be safe, your enemies will be kind to you, will let you live in peace.

Let this bombing of Qatar be the straw that breaks the camel's back. Or continue to be bombed, bullied and ridiculed by the Americans and the Israelis while they plan to kill all of you to take over your land and everything. Trump is smiling and having a good time telling his lies. Netanyahu is congratulating himself for a good job and knows that the Arabs and Muslims would do nothing, cannot do anything. And he will bomb any Arab and Muslim state any time, anywhere, with full support from the American terrorists in Washington.

A heartlander's ideas for Singapore's future development

A county robust economy needed to earn their wealth NOT from within slaughtering your own peoples.
Also to ready slaughter your own you still needed for your own to be able to also earn their wealth by their abilities to produce saleable products of either services or innovations and goods

A real GDP strong earning country is from the outside not what's internal economy of own dead end stale one that shall surely come to a halt in a matter of time.

If the peoples just have mundane and lower grade of economy of just Servile services the progress and wealth of that country is slow moving.

An example of China as Factory of the World not only their manufactured goods but also their superior technologies.

Their High Grade engineering of building high tech and class infrastructures for so many countries.

Here, just still acting and on the mercy of the World's just services in logistics, tourism, and other countries also have their usual transportation services etc.

Ours only hawking's, logistics and other mundane what's MICE services and once a while attracted ad hoc Swift Taylor Concerts and F1 Races.

These are just simply random incomes which are not substantiable in the long run.

Own citizens still have to compete with outsiders to make up the numbers so that it's feasible that the trains and buses must have volume to be profitable.

Own mundane and meagre salaries and yet have to pay a limb and arm for their BTOs housings which is supposedly meant as cheap housings for their own.

Instead it became a main income economy by the government.

Years in years out still having the same type of mundane White collars useless degrees which how many a year you can have jobs and professions for Property and Insurance Agents?

How many in the Hotel and Logistics services?

Most be delivery food and parcels agents.

PHDrivers and Hawkers!

Ones that goes overseas to those also useless Unis back with the same mundane no use degrees.

Long ago should gave cajoled and persuaded the young to go for tough prospects high technologies courses and manufacturering skills with innovations of own.

Also pay high renumerations to go into building industries of high tech infrastructures and leant from the others.

Not die die same mundane dead white collars jobs.

Singapore's economic growth is hitting a ceiling

There is no formula for success that works forever. The world changes, geopolitical alliances change, leadership also changes, and policy matters also change as well.

Right now, the only sector pulling us forward seems to be the bricks and mortar sector, with MRT extension, airport expansion and a new housing enclave springing up around Mount Pleasant among others. You can see the amount of digging and excavation going on around just about every street and corner, some looking like a war zone, especially along the construction of the Cross Island Line route.

I am not too sure the building of more MRT Lines can alleviate the overcrowding problem on trains and in MRT stations, some of which are already serious bottlenecks catering to the morning crowd. Complaints have been registered about huge crowds at Bishan and Hougang Stations with commuters unable to even board successive trains that were already bursting at the seams. Merging stations as places for commuters to change to multiple lines is causing even graver situations arising during the morning rush hour.

I just feel the problem getting worse but let us leave it to the planners how to overcome the overcrowded trains and stations, since they said they have plans for a ten million population.

Good news, NATO savages want to put boots in Ukraine. Better news, Putin said would fight to the end

NATO countries are singing their own song unilaterally about putting boots on the ground in Ukraine. Have the Russians relented? This is as good as NATO being given the go ahead to expand its footprint in Ukraine, which Putin has already drawn his Red Line long ago.

Even if the Ukraine War were to end, Putin would never allow NATO countries to act as peacekeepers. NATO members can continue to build castles in the air about being allowed boots on the ground. Russia has every right to target them if they do so as combatants taking part in a war, maybe using an old map story should suffice, LOL.

North Korea now has no qualms about covering up the fact that it is helping Russia openly, while China and India will still be helping Russia economically by buying Russian energy. The USA has no leverage when it comes to China buying Russian energy, a situation that already existed well before the Ukraine War.

Scott Bessant is trying to spin the mantra that India is profiteering from buying Russian oil, which is not going to make any difference as India's live line depends on Russian oil, which it cannot cut off in any way. India already is defying Scott Bessant by telling the USA that it will continue to buy Russian oil, a defiance that is quite unexpected.

Evil American Empire is NOT kind, generous and benign...It is brutal, cruel and barbaric

 How to judge the Americans and the American Empire? Some would claim that they benefitted from the kindness and generosities of the Americans, like Europe, Japan and some American allies. The story is like a pet dog, owned by a master and fed by the master, even hugged and kissed by the master...because it is just a pet for the master's amusement, to please the master. A few pieces of crumps thrown at the doggie will make it very happy. The pet dogs will not get anything more than what the masters would give. The masters would always be the masters. Period.

Look at the other side of the coin. What did the Americans do to North Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and now Gaza, and now Venezuela. Many would not want to know the past, the genocide of the native Americans, black slavery, massacres of the Pinoys, carpet bombing of Vietnam, the atomic bombing of Japan etc etc. They want to sweep them under the carpet, too embarrassing to fit into their belief that the Americans are all good, kind and benevolent, because they were the recipients of some goodness.

Ok, look at now and the recent past. Ask the North Koreans and Cubans and all the third world countries that were sanctioned and embargoed and isolated by the evil American Empire. The lives of their people, their economies, were ruined for decades, to live in abject poverty, all because of the evil Americans. The Latin American states would always be kept poor and isolated from the world. The believers of American white gods would not want to know that these are true, that these happened and still happening to these poor people and countries. Americans generous and kind to them?

The Americans claimed that they were kind to China and the Chinese people. Really? How many Chinese were brutally killed and robbed during the early days of Chinese migrants to America? How China was broken up, plundered and looted, and almost colonised? And how the Chinese were treated as subhumans, no talents, to be cooks and laundrymen and forced to smoke opium?

Oh, the Americans brought their factories to China to give jobs to the poor Chinese, and allowed, permitted China to join the WTO, or else China would still be kept outside the door. The generous and kind Americans helped China to be rich and successful? Really? They kept China isolated and poor for so long, like Cuba and North Korea. They let China into the WTO not because they wanted to help China, but to use China as a pawn against USSR. Their factories moved to China to exploit the cheap labour and low cost of production. And...they think the no talent Chinese peasants would always be the source of cheap labour for assembly line tasks. Never to rise above this level of existence. Making China rich is furthest from the truth, furthest from their minds.

Now they regretted. They were shocked that the Chinese were not stupid as the Americans wanted to believe. So now they are all out to kill the Chinese economy and industries, to keep the Chinese poor again. The Chinese cannot be allowed to be richer than Americans, cannot be more advanced than Americans. And Americans are kind and generous and wanted to help the Chinese to be rich like Americans? Stop the lies. Only the brain dead hillbillies and the equally daft Anglophiles would believe so.

Look at what the Americans are doing to the Latin American countries, how they interfered, intervened in the internal affairs of these countries for centuries, to treat them as slave nation states, to serve the interests of the evil American Empire. How many coups the Americans had conducted against the Latin American states? How many national leaders have been assassinated, with some arrested like criminals and jailed in America? Now they are lying that the President of Venezuela is a drug lord and put a bounty on him, wanting to arrest him. Are these criminal acts of the evil Americans kind, generous and benevolent? They are going to invade Venezuela any time now, on pretext of drug cartels! They are starting another war, the most peace loving, kind, generous democracy, the terrorist state of USA.

The evil Americans have kept the Latin American states poor like Africa, allowed only minimal progress and be weak economically and militarily, banning any country from selling them real weapons to defend themselves. Whatever allowed to be sold to the Latin American countries must be approved by the Americans. Everything in Latin America belongs to the American Empire. Now they are going after Venezuela because it is selling oil to China, the oil the Americans claimed can only be for the Americans.

The African states are not much better under the oppression of the American Empire and the Europeans, and still treated as shit hole countries, good only to supply all the raw material and resources and gold and diamonds for the Americans and the West at the prices of dirt.

How many brain deads still idolising the Americans as the generous white gods, benevolent and kind and peace loving? Now that the evil American Empire is seeing their grip over the world slipping away, they are going to exert more pressure to take over control of the whole world, to start WW3 if necessary. And yes, they would be very generous to the doggies that they can use as pawns against their adversaries, by throwing a few pieces of crumps to them. And the doggies will be full of praise for their generous and kind masters.

Trump too stupid to know he is stupid...thinks all other leaders are stupider than him

Trump is too stupid to know that he is stupid. Having said that, Trump thinks all other country's leaders are stupider than him. When a push comes to a shove, more countries are deserting from the USA and embracing China. China, Russia and North Korea coming together was a godsend, all thanks to Trump. Now Iran and India are facing shoving by Trump and common sense will tell us where they will go next.

Trump wants the US$ to remain the reserve currency by feigning ignorance that the USA is ripping others off realistically, so that the USA can continue with the charade to benefit from the blood and sweat of other countries just printing toilet papers in exchange. Nothing is easier than having a printer to print a piece of paper in exchange for real goods. Like Red Dot's COE system, LOL.

What BRICS had and is doing is real trade, exchanging finished goods or development aid for raw materials or energy, not ripping off each other. It is really a winning proposition for parties inside BRICS engaging in deals with each other. And the icing on the cake is that they can do trade using their own currencies, Yuan for Rubles for example, ditching the US$ completely.

In the case of Iran, China is actually doing barter trade, to go even further backwards so to say, exchanging energy from Iran with development aid from China. Nobody is ripping off the other, which is another way to free themselves from the sanctioning regime. Venezuela could be the next country to do that with its oil export to China in exchange for development aid. Maduro was in China joining in the Victory Day celebrations and I would not think that any meeting between him and Chinese leaders is just for exchanging T-shirts. So does Indonesia, for two-way trade which will all be done outside the US$. De-dollarization is now of duo benefit for those who adopt the system to bypass the US$, and able to do business outside the US$ in their own currencies and avoiding sanctions going through SWIFT.

Virgo's Morning Bread - Good times and bad times Singaporeans

 Singapore or SinkiesLAND or Sinking Land is Doomed!


For 60 decades no new innovations and industries

Auto Pilot thought that the same old economy is enough.

Service and commissions agents and middle men trading businesses.

Now panic stations trying to have what's new economy and believed pains must follow before Sinkies rise again with realities and pramaticism like the first few generations.

Supposedly the new generation leaders should be smarter than the old but turned out Duds!

Actually frankly, like LKY used to say "When you are hungry you strived to be the best and survive"

When the present lots are been fed fat with plenty and lived comfortably lives, the downfall is near.

Already no instincts and ambitions to strive anymore.

I had seen real life realities of some of my early days 60s rich families children as neighbours and friends which are now mostly lost in their wildness which they're been pampered their whole childhood and adult lives by their rich grandparents and later wealth passed down to their parents and later all vanquished.

They cannot even held a job throughout their lives and now living like the Americunts paupers.

Last few days no choice had to visit a relative in intensive care in Koo Tupat oops apology Khoo Teck Puat hospital and seen in buses and trains and passed thru some malls of at least half the population of Singapore I told my spouse are not working at all.

I'm usually at home no need to be out with the maddening crowds as most Seniors must.

It's seemed like they are on holidays with every corners full of them causally.

Is it now they are RTS aka Roam The Streets that they are been retrenched or now they are all so well to do no need to work?

Or alternatively been well fed and supported by their still rich parents who made it thru their ingenuity of hard works or cunning schemes of making their wealth by hook or crooks?

Our time all running up and down like mad dogs making a living.

So not to be long winded, my take at this rate SinkiesLAND is DOOMED.

Anyway no eyes see had seen enough

Prabowo defied the Americans and attended the Victory Parade. Now back home, he is going to do the necessary

 The housing allowance for Members of Parliament in Indonesia was introduced last year but the protest just erupted violently when Prabowo was about to attend the Chinese Victory Day Parade in Beijing. The coincidence could not be timelier in organization. Who is making hay while the sun shines with Prabowo out of the country and establishing closer ties with Beijing?


The USA propaganda machine and its social media beneficiary were also having a song and dance frenzy when Xi was attending the Russian Victory Day parade in Moscow three months ago, claiming that someone or some military leaders revolted and Xi has lost power, was not seen in public and was under house arrest. Does the Victory Day Parade in Beijing days ago indicate Xi losing power or under house arrest?

Hear the stout greeting delivered to the soldiers from Xi while inspecting the parade (I may not have translated well) - 'How are you comrades' from Xi and the powerful reply by the military participants - 'How are you Chaiman' and you can really feel the patriotic response in just a few words. The next message from Xi to the soldiers - 'Comrades, it must be hard on you all' and the equally vociferous reply of that it was their duty in protecting the people and country.

I have watched parades elsewhere, but nothing of the vigor and patriotism coming across like this. Watching Trump's military parade was really a sick joke put up by the USA military, honestly to disgrace Trump earlier. And was there a bullet shield protecting Trump as some claimed?

Gaza Genocide - Helping the Palestinians will bring more harm to them?

JERUSALEM: Israel's foreign minister branded a recent international push to recognise Palestinian statehood a "mistake" on Sunday (Sep 7) and warned it could trigger an unspecified unilateral response, after reports that Israel plans to annex parts of the occupied West Bank.

Several countries, including France and Britain, have pledged to recognise a Palestinian state during the UN General Assembly later this month. CNA


This is the message the Israeli savages are selling to the world. The more you help the Palestinians, the harder the Israelis will come after them. Do not recognise the state of Palestinians. Think carefully what the Israelis are going to do when you recognise Palestinians. You are not helping them!

So, the best thing, do nothing. This will bring less harm to the Palestinians. They will die faster and less painful than continue to be starved and diseased and die a slower and more painful death. Let the Israelis and the Americans annihilate them with their final solution.  Quick and fast, like how they did it to the animals in the abattoirs, merciful killings. This is the only way to help the Palestinians. See, I am a thinker, and I think deeply on the consequences of helping the Palestinians when the end result is to harm them more. Am I clever? Listen to the good advice of the Israelis. It cannot be wrong. Not helping the Palestinians is the wisest think to do. Insanity?

The final solution is on the way. And the world is still hapless, talking cock, unable to do anything. Only the Houthis are really acting, to hit harder at the Israelis. The Israelis hit back hard, killing all the Yemenis govt ministers with their drone strikes. But the Houthis dare not hit Tel Aviv, dare not hit the Israeli govt and ministries. The Houthis alone is not enough. They need the backing and full support of the Arab and Muslim world, and the whole world, to act together to do the final solution on the Israelis instead. And the Arab and Muslim world, together with the world, can do that. Only 8 million Jews in a little piece of land with nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Even the American umbrella cannot be of help. Just do it, and stop talking nonsense. Time is running out on the Palestinians. The more the Arab and Muslim world and the rest of the world keep talking, crying, the more stupid they look.

An immediate stop must be put on the American and Israeli murderers to save the Palestinians. Act now or there will be no Palestinians left to save. Not acting is as good as agreeing with the Israelis, do nothing, and let the Americans and Israelis finish off the last of the remaining Palestinians in Gaza and then the rest in the West Bank.

Do nothing to save the Palestinians, or act now to save them?

What do you think?

PS. Houthis and Yemen just flattened the Israeli airports, and Netanyahu is fleeing for his life.

The China India Story. Same beginning, different ending

 India became an independent country in 1947. China became PRC in 1949 after a long war with Japan and a continuous civil war with the KMT. Both India and China started at about the same time, both poor agrarian countries with no modern industries to talk about. Both were equally poor, the people were mostly uneducated, illiterate farmers or artisans. Their GDP were about the same, nothing to talk about.

Till the 1970s, China went through tumultuous periods of experimentation to catch up with the world but failed miserably. The weather, droughts and famine added to cripple the effort of the Chinese people to rebuild themselves and their economies. The Cultural Revolution dealt another severe blow to the Chinese people, destroying many things of value, the leftovers from the Japanese Invasion and lootings by both the Japanese and the KMT.

In the same period, India chuckled along in its own pace with not many upheavals but with nothing to crow about. 1978 was the turning point of the Chinese economy, opening up to the West and the 4 Modernizations as a start. The following 30 years of rapid industrialisation, selling cheap labour to the West just to get by were accompanied by parallel state policies to educate its population, to learn as much from the West and reconstruction of the country and infrastructure, transformed China into a modern industrial nation state, with its GDP ballooned to more than US$15 trillion. Now China's GDP is creeping towards US$20 trillion.

India continued to chuck along at its own pace with a GDP of nearly US$4 trillion today. In the early 1970s, India had an edge over China in computerisation when everything was in English. While the Indians were excelling in programming and making a name for itself, with a few Indian software companies emerging into international prominence, the Chinese were still learning English.

Today, the Indian software companies are still there as before but becoming just another company. Chinese companies are big names in technology and engineering. Chinese companies are in the forefront of the IT/AI and chips race for world dominance. India is still stuck with the same software companies with a struggling industrial base that is no better than Hong Kong in the 1970s. On the other hand, China is the factory of the world, with complete supply chains for every necessity in modern living and also in high tech, AI, 6G and competing to be the leading powerhouse in top end chips.

There is no comparison between where India is now and where China is. China is neck to neck with the best in America and has surpassed many American industries and not looking back. Anyone believing that India is the next China and the future got to get their heads check. It is meaningless to compare a US$4 trillion GDP with a US$20 trillion GDP. If India is even a fraction better than what it is gloating about, its GDP would be nearer to US$10 trillion at worse. It's GDP is not even a quarter of China's GDP. But comparing GDP can be misleading. What is important today is high tech and leading edge science and AI. Where is India? Only the gullible would think India is in the race or a factor to be reckoned with.

China is now almost self sufficient in many fields. India is almost totally dependent on imports of everything. India's industrial giant, Tata, is making mini EVs with motorcycle engine. In China, many little factories are making many mini EVs with motor cycle engines, and making them better than Tata, and selling them world wide. India is the future? Not in the next 50 years. They could not even have enough urea ie fertiliser, when it is abundantly found in the Ganges River. No technology to harvest them. No technology to turn the Ganges water into Newater for semicon industry.

Looking to India as the future of growth and high tech is like the hillbillies looking to D grader Trump to make America great again.

Trump giving up on his wet dream, the Nobel Peace Prize

 Hear, hear, Trump is not vying for the Nobel Peace Prize now but is just trying to save 'lies' oops 'lives'. Sound much like the USA dropping two nukes on Japan and claiming it was to save lives.


How does that fit into reality when the USA is giving Israel more weapons to kill innocent Palestinian women and children, almost 67,000 right now, not to mention aid workers and journalists as well. That is more than the USA's 59,000 military casualties during the Vietnam War. Whether that is the real figure or watered down version, is unknown. When Trump tries telling the truth, something is not right about the truth.

Trump can really be saving lives by denying more weapons for Israel and Ukraine. That is the truth and nothing but the truth. For that, he may have a sliver of a chance to smell the Nobel Peace Prize. Now, Trump knows his chances of snatching the Nobel Peace Prize has evaporated with his failure in Ukraine and the Indians exposing his lie about being involved in the peace deal between India and Pakistan and India refusing to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Having said that, I think Trump deserves some credit for pushing Putin and Kim even closer towards China. He also deserves credit for pushing India to come to terms with China, but whether that will last is uncertain. There are a lot of unanswered doubts that needs thrashing out.

China's Mach 8 missiles can blow away anything, anywhere the Americans have...unstoppable!

 All that is becoming obsolete, stealth or otherwise. China has nuclear missiles, the DF 5C, with a range of 20,000 km, that can hit anything anywhere in the USA and any USA military base overseas. Nowhere is safe. It is a missile with 'global strike range' not needing submarines, warships or planes to get closer to targets to deliver.


China also has thousands of small fishing vessels that can be converted to military use. And lest we forget, China has such overwhelming manufacturing overcapacity to be tapped into in times of war.

China is obviously really well prepared for any war, cold or hot. And with Russia and North Korea in its corner, the power shift is obvious. But China is not overplaying its card. What Xi is saying about its display of weapons during the Victory Day Parade is that those are just deterrents against enemies thinking that China is still as backward as during the opium war era and can be threatened with few warships and cannons. More than that, Xi is warning that China will not bow to bullies, clear and unambiguous. In this world, there is only one country that is bullying everybody, and the message is targeting that particular country.

China has played its card exceedingly well by building up its unprecedented military deterrents, albeit at a fraction of the cost that some war mongering hegemons are spending on. Moreover, the control of rare earth exports has crippled the enemy's ability to make more weapons to target China and Trump knows this very well. This move is what the Chinese had been saying throughout history - 'To really kill the grass, you need to pull out the roots, otherwise when the spring wind blows, it will grow again'.

China's long-term thinking and long-term planning is bearing fruit.

Real reason to attack India...Modi refused to nominate Trump for Peace Prize

The USA and the Japanese were both in cahoots with the West, both members of the Eight Nations, attempting to split up China into concessions to be ruled by them, just like in Africa. Had the Chinese not fought back themselves, China would be just like Africa, divided and ruled.

Had the Japanese not attacked Pearl Harbour, the USA would not even have entered WW2. How in the world was the USA ever in defense of China against the Japanese when the two themselves were eventually fighting against each other during WW2. This is what Trump is good at, trying to claim credit using history, where credit is not due.

Suffice to say, India's distancing itself from Trump's claim that he brokered the peace deal with Pakistan hit a raw nerve in Trump, eliciting a juvenile response by Trump escalating his tariffs to 50%. Why now? India had been buying Russian oil throughout the three years of the Ukraine War, and this is being used as an excuse by Trump to target India, when the true reason was about India sabotaging Trump's attempt to gain credit for his Nobel Peace Prize agenda.

Yasukuni shrine has tablets of many traitors that worked for the Imperial Japanese Army...to blackmail them with their pasts

Taiwan is ruled by Japanese or half Japanese masquerading as Chinese. The Victory Parade is clearly directed at Japan's defeat, and the Japanese are unhappy about China raking up old wounds. So, how Taiwan acted is clearly just toeing the Japanese line, nothing strange. Had Trump been invited and had he attended, it may have turned the tale of three cities - USA, Japan and Taiwan's relations into a circus. That could have given Taiwan the jitters for sure.

China is not that hard hit by USA tariffs to need to woo India to counter its standoff against the USA. In fact, Xi is telling those at the Victory Day parade that China has never bowed to bullies. This is not what works in the old days when the USA is the much sought after market for every country. Today, there is a growing Global South that can easily dispense with the importance of the USA as the most important export market. In fact, Trump's tariffs have driven the last nail in the coffin of the old mantra. Trump may yet try to spin his tariff failure, which is clearly facing failure, by blaming the USA Judiciary for calling out its illegality.

Rules Based Order versus American Rules Based Order or Laws of the Mafia

  Pro American or western biased countries, having been brought up in the western environment or western domination, are very comfortable using the term Rules Based Order. In its original and purest form, this is a fair and orderly system for a stable and predictable world, for international trade and international relations. However, Rules Based Order is not as simple or as innocuous as it seems. When the Americans or the West talk about Rules Based Order, they are referring to a system where they write the rules in their favour and for the rest of the world to follow. And they are above the law, they did not have to follow the rules they wrote.

The West has dominated and ruled the world for several centuries and all the rules are written by them, set by them. All the international institutions created by the West have rules that favoured the West. For example the UN, where 5 permanent members of the Security Council have veto rights to dismiss any resolution submitted to the Council. And to ensure their absolute control of the Security Council and the UN, 3 of the Security Council members are Europeans. You could make it 4, as Russia is also a European country. And to make sure nothing goes wrong, all it needs is one council member to veto a resolution, it would be enough to prevent it from passing. Similarly, the WTO, the IMF, have more voting rights for western countries, and the head must be a westerner, the HQ must be in a western country, and they wrote the rules and the laws. 

Rules Based Order as promoted by the Americans and the West is not the simple and innocent Rules Based Order that countries of the Global South think. This is the main reason why the Americans and the West always insist that they must write the rules for the world, ie they must control and rule the world. And they are up in arms against a rising China that wants to change the rules, to change the balance of power for a fairer world, not a world dominated and controlled by western rules and orders.

A glaring example lately is the Americans dictating to the rest of the world not to use chips from Huawei or any Huawei equipment that have Huawei chips in them. Anyone, corporation or individual, or country violating this American ban is guilty and can be charged and fined or jailed under American law. This means the Americans own the whole world, rule the world, and they can write laws and police the world. Yes, they are the self imposed policemen of the world. They own the world.

How many silly Global South countries accept this, that the Americans should be the policemen of the world to rule over them, to arrest them as and when they like? What is the meaning of independence and national sovereignty if the Americans are the policemen of the world?

Accepting American Rules Based Order is to accept to be ruled by the Americans and the West, to lose your independence and sovereignty, to be colonies of the American Empire. The Americans would decide the roles of countries of the world. One thing for sure, no country can be richer and more powerful than America. The African countries must always be the shithole of the world, just to supply raw materials to the West, and be ruled by the West. The Arab and Muslim countries must be the producers of oil and must channel their oil revenue to buy American debt, ie selling their oil to exchange for American monopoly money. And they can only sell oil to countries the Americans allowed them to. 

The Americans and the West would be the hegemonic Empire ruling over the world. This balance of power cannot be challenged. Any country challenging this would be executed, like Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi, and now the crosshair is trained on Putin and Xi for the guts to want to change this world order. Oops, an easier target would be the African leader Traore of Burkina Faso. It is ok under the American Rules Based Order to execute him and put another African that would do the bidding of the American Empire. All African and Middle Eastern leaders please take note of this and be obedient and not try to be funny, to want to be independent from the American Empire. Under the American Rules Based Order, you are only free, as free as the Americans allow you to be, like Europe, Japan and South Korea.

The American terrorists simply called the President of Venezuela as the head of drug cartel, put a US$50m bounty on his head, and wanted him dead or alive. This is American's mafia Rules Based Order. And they can simply invade any country on the pretext of countering terrorism, drug smuggling, violating the sovereignty of countries. The American terrorists, the marines, just killed 11 Venezuelans in cold blood, without needing any proof of crime. They can kill anyone, anywhere, anytime. The Americans are still behaving like savages of the past. Responsible stakeholders???

Oops, I forgot Canada, Mexico and Greenland....the Americans can just take them when they want to, by force. In the Ukraine War, under their Rules Based Order, they can gang up to fight Russia. No country can fight on the side of Russia or even trade with Russia. In Gaza, they supplied all the bombs and weapons for the Israelis to genocide the Palestinians and pretend they have nothing to do with it.

Any silly world leader still uttering Rules Based Order ala America?

White gods can do no wrong in the eyes of the blind believers

History as written by the Whites really needs a revision. The truth has been hidden for too long; the lies widely delivered and disseminated with the complicity of the MSM and the USA propaganda machine. I would say that the brainwashing and dumbing down has succeeded beyond imagination, with much of the foreign global elites having their education in the USA and Anglo-Saxo White countries and equally being brainwashed.

The world and the MSM never talks about the genocides against the Native American Indians, the Aborigines of Australia or the Maoris of New Zealand. All fallen victims to religious assault, some even succumbing to force submission into accepting their fate like the Natives in Canada, that had been recently exposed.

Now the genocide in Gaza will be similarly swept under the carpet with the MSM not wanting to talk about it. Of course, the Jews control much of the global news outlets and are very smart not to let journalist document Israel's genocide progress in Gaza. Killing journalist is a sure way to keep that in check.

Gangster Trump afraid of being fixed up

Trump is now having another tantrum, accusing Putin, Xi and Kim as conspiring against the USA. I thought I just heard Trump saying he was not concerned yesterday about the trio coming closer together. So why is he accusing Putin, Xi and Kim conspiring against the USA today, just 24 hours later. Talking about conspiring, did Trump care to look at himself in the mirror? I guess not.

What were the USA doing creating all the alliances with allies? Five Eyes countries - USA, Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand was formed for the purpose of spying on China and gathering intelligence. QUAD was created with USA, Australia, India and Japan for the same purpose. AUKUS comprising Australia, UK and USA was again created for the purpose of containing China. Likewise, what was the Chips Alliance all about, the technology squeeze carried out with allies, like the Netherlands, against China? Is the creation of all these entities not clearly conspiring against China? But knowing Trump and his administration lives in another dimension, perhaps they are too stupid to know.

The USA was even trying to poison the Africans, always talking about turning them against China whenever Western leaders visited. The Africans are sick and tired of the charade, having tasted Anglo-Saxon colonization for decades and having nothing to show but poverty, backwardness and exploitation. The moment China steps into Africa, developments and progress are already there for the world to see. The Africans are not as dense as the hillbillies, knowing who is buttering their bread and really have their interest at heart.

 Americunts are just paid parasites Military that invades and fought for their livings.


On someone orders. Their main instincts are to obey and fight to live another day so that they could return and hopefully enjoy some of their promised benefits ad veterans and their contacted tours of duties.

Whereas the PRCs are mentally conditioned to fight and die for their Motherland!

Their wills to fight and die if have to for the sake of their Nation and families.

So, their morales are different from any invading and threatening adversaries.

They are being conditioned and been reminded of their old generation's century of humiliations and sufferings and NEVER again to be in this predicament again.

So, their fighting spirits are different and their wills not to live like the other so called Western and their cronies and lackeys Militaries as just mercenary Militaries.

PLA Militaries are grilled and drilled to be Defenders and Patriots of their Motherland.

When Xi called them as Comrades and the sacrifices that they had undergone in their training and actual Military Lifes they responded All for the sake of our Country and Nation.

That's their wills and determinations that could tear any Adversaries into HELL.

The Spirit and Morale of a Great Military Force are their Greatest Victories NOT as just a Mercenary Military paid just to do a job and then survive in their self interests and hope that it be all over soon.

The Americans have a lot of war experience...in losing wars

The USA military may have the best experience, but what happened in Vietnam? Half a million USA soldiers in Vietnam plus South Koreans and South Vietnamese and yet unable to carve out a victory over rag-tag Vietcong fighters. The USA also had massive aerial advantage and support together with weapons galore. A war is won not on experience alone but on strategy, tenacity and knowing the enemy - its size, shape and weakness. If experience determines the outcome of a war, Hitler would have defeated the Soviet Union and so did Napolean.

The USA military also had the same massive advantage in weapons and aerial superiority in Afghanistan, but twenty years later had to flee with tails between its legs. What the USA had been fighting in Afghanistan were merely against farmers bearing small arms. There was not even a proper unit to be called an army within the ranks of the Taliban. Today, the Taliban have the semblance of an army with weapons seized from the USA when it fled - supposedly destroyed but mostly reconditioned and still a force to be reckoned with in battle. Nothing to gloat about actually for the USA even if it had won the fight.

The USA may have the bragging rights, but not necessarily the clout to come out and proclaim victory even before facing a really formidable foe - one that is on par with it. The French had massive bragging rights regarding their Rafale jet, but what happened recently when the Rafales failed even against cheap Chinese J10C. The Rafales had all the experience, but when it comes to the crunch, it failed.

All EVs will be Made in China or by Chinese joint ventures

In the next couple of decades, all cars will be EV. This is the next industrial revolution when an obsolete technology hit the dust. ICE cars are no longer needed just like cassette tapes, floppy disks. ICE cars are difficult and expensive to make, consume too much fossil fuel, inefficient, unfriendly to the environment. It is old technology that would soon be relegated to the museum.

In the next few years, at most a decade, all EVs will be made in China or by Chinese companies in joint ventures in China or overseas. At this moment, only Tesla has a reasonable sales volume to survive but not for long. The rapid progress and innovation of Chinese EVs are putting Tesla far behind in the tech race. The numerous Chinese models, better, faster and cheaper are making Tesla cars looking like new antiques.

A Xiaomi YU7, with 310 hp, is selling only for US$14,000. How much is Tesla selling for its cheapest model that could not even come near to the YU7 in performance.  In the first 30 minutes of sales, it received 300,000 orders. How much would an ICE car cost with 310hp? There is no comparison.

A 503 hp MG Cyberster EV made in China outran an Aston Martin with more than 600hp by a mile in a drag race. The same Cyberster only lost to a Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae by a body length. And the Avantador costs a few millions against the less than US$200,000 MG. 

Xiaomi's SU7 used to hold the record for top speed clocked by a production car. But this has been overtaken by a BYD production supercar Yangwang U9 with a 3019 hp engine, beating almost anything available. And the top speed it clocked was a staggering 472kph!

Chinese EVs are beating everything in the market in quality, design, performance and price. And the Chinese are going upmarket to compete in the grand luxury market with several models from Nio, Xpeng, Hongqi, Zeekr etc etc against Rolls Royce, Maybach and other western brands.

All manufacturers of ICE cars would have to close shop very soon. They are just not good enough, and old technology that have become obsolete. As it is, many western brands EVs like Volvo, MG, Lotus etc etc are actually Chinese EVs. Going forward, China is not going to waste money buying up European brands that have gone broke.  China has created its own reputation to produce high quality EVs and can sell them using Chinese brands. And China has a near monopoly of all EV batteries. Practically all American or European EVs that could still sell are using Chinese batteries.

Chinese EVs are taking over the world and will be all over the world in double quick time. All cars are EVs and all EVs are Chinese made. Tesla may not last very long. Even if it survives, it will be a shadow of itself.

Singapore's success for joining the winning side

The success of Singapore over the last 6 decades could be due to Singapore's decision to join the winning side. Singapore became an independent state in 1965, in the midst of the Cold War between the Americans and the West versus the Soviet Union and Communism. It may be a simplistic view that just joining the winning side, the Americans and the West, is a major reason for what Singapore is today. Other things aside, plugging into the western world system, being very useful to the Americans at a time and in a region that is hostile to the Americans, found Singapore in a sweet spot for American investments and influence in the region. American investments poured into the little island, including everything American, influence, propaganda, brainwashing and Hollywood.

This was acute political thinking of the first generation of Singapore leaders. Singapore had to survive at a time when neighbours were not too friendly and there was no one else to turn to. America was at the peak of its power and influence. Being friend of America, under the protective umbrella of the Americans, provided Singapore with an era of peace and security and rapid economic growth to the envy of the neighbouring states. Caveat, Singapore workers then were hardworking and talented, unlike today's daft Singaporeans.

The geopolitics of the world has changed over the last few decades. The Americans are still powerful and rich and still behaving like a rogue state, bullying the rest of the world. The rogue behaviour of the Americans is getting under the collar of many states of the Global South. Never mind if the developed states of the West are also feeling the heat. 

In addition, powerful states from the Global South are also rising and now posing a challenge to the American dominance and hegemony. The signs are all there that America is in decline and the challengers are rising rapidly and looking likely to overtake the Americans in all areas, economics, science and technology, politics and even military. The new Singapore leaders, especially under Lawrence Wong, would be in serious thought about the future of Singapore amidst the changes in the balance of power. For a while, the mantra is to be neutral, not taking sides, hide under the Asean umbrella and try to be friendly to both America and China, if this is possible, but still leaning more on the American side.

With each passing day, with the gangsters in Washington behaving like irresponsible and aggressive mafia, being neutral is getting more difficult and uneasy. Which way would Singapore turn to? Who is going to be the winner for Singapore to choose to be on the winning side again and ride the wave?

So far, it seems that Singapore has made the choice, the wrong choice, to be on the losing side, picking the loser. The decision to sanction Russia is a poor choice. As it is turning out, Russia is the winning side. Ukraine is the loser, and the Americans are also trying to wriggle out from the losing war. Russia is not alone. Practically the whole of Asia and the Global South is on the side of Russia. The latest parties in Tianjin and Beijing are optics that said Russia is winning. Singapore had made a bad choice, not as clever as the first generation leaders.

Singapore is now picking India as the next winner. Is this a wise choice or another bad choice? Is India a winner? The Indo Pakistan War said it without apologies, that India is a loser. India is also a big loser in its relations with the USA. India is also a loser in economics, trade and industrialisation and high tech revolution. Can anyone be so blind not to see that India is a loser in everything, on every count, despite all the bragging, gloating and fake statistics? India has nothing that is world leading and in the forefront of technology.

Singapore prospers for the last few decades by picking the winning side, staying on the winning side. Would Singapore continue to prosper by picking the losing side? The world today is more vicious and moving very fast. Picking a loser and staying on the losing side is going to have bad consequences for Singapore. It needs the acute wisdom and foresight of the first generation leaders to keep Singapore afloat for the immediate future. Believing in fantasies and make beliefs, in wet dreams, are very telling on the wisdom of leadership. Singapore cannot make its policies on hopes, false hopes and believing in smooth talks. Singapore has to make hard decisions based on hard thinking and hard facts.

What do you think? Is Singapore choosing the winning or losing side? America is appearing as the loser by the day. Only the Anglophiles think America will forever be the winner, the Empire that will not fall.

New Iron Triangles - Xi, Putin and Modi, ... Xi, Putin and Kim

Trump said that he is not concerned about China and Russia forming a new front against the USA. Oh yes, not concerned but trying to split the duo but failing to bring down Russia and afraid to put more pressure on China. Not concerned but threatening BRICS with 100% tariffs, knowing BRICS is the brainchild of Putin and Xi. Now, what else have Putin and Xi been talking about in privately in Tianjin? Trump must be anxious to know, but nowhere to get the news. Now we have North Korea Kim also inside the front.

The SCO meeting had a trio of Putin, Xi and Modi, laughing together and probably talking about someone sulking. The Victory Day parade will feature another trio of Putin, Xi and Kim. These are all Trump's friends before, but why is he not invited? The more Trump wants attention, the more some countries will care two hoots about him. Trump is now an outcast. The only support he now has is from the Anglo-Saxon clique.

Oh, by the way Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is reported to be going to Beijing to attend the Victory Day Parade after all. That shows how important China is to Indonesia.

Trump did not know America is ripping off the world by exchanging real goods with worthless papers

Trump is building a wall around himself, forgetting to put in a door that he could come out, LOL. Now the wall is closing in on Trump. Will the USA be in the position of China during the century of humiliation? Karma really does work.

Who could have expected the British Empire to fall while it was at its peak, untouchable and powerful. Yes, the Brits were also stealing the wealth of its colonies to prosper, US$40 trillion (or pounds) alone from India. The USA is today sucking in the products of blood and sweat of other nations, using its toilet papers in exchange. And yet, Trump is complaining that countries are ripping the USA off. When countries stop providing the USA with goods, let us see who had been doing the ripping. That day is coming, but Trump may not be around to witness it.

BRICS and SCO are doing an excellent job of providing an alternative for the Global South countries, providing them with a bigger trading bloc, cheaper, faster and more convenient, away from the control of the US$. Trade today is subject to huge losses in converting to and from the US$, benefitting the USA alone. Every country is waiting for the day when the US$ is no longer effective as a weapon to sanction any Tom, Dick and Harry just because they want an alternative fairer system to trade.

Trump scores 180 for dementia test but he thought that was for his IQ

I came across some social media sites talking about why Trump is very angry with India and punishing India and Modi for not nominating him for the Nobel Peace Prize and even sabotaging his claims that he brokered the Pakistan/India peace deal. India categorically said that Trump has nothing to do with that peace deal whatsoever. Ouch, that truly hurts and is saying that Trump is lying big time.
Having said that, what happened at the SCO meeting recently in Tianjin and the gathering of world leaders and the coming together of Putin, Xi and Modi owes much to Trump's effort to push them together, LOL. Maybe Trump would want to claim credit for that too, to add another feather to his cap and improve his chances of getting the Nobel Peace Prize. No, I am not rooting for that of course.

Trump wants that Nobel Peace Prize very badly, but things are not working out for him. If bribing could work, Trump would surely have taken that route.

Some Democrats are now exposing Trump's self-gloating IQ test results claiming he scored 180, in the range of a genius. Actually, that result that a Democrat dug out was just a test score while undertaking a dementia checkup or something, nothing about an IQ test.

American terrorists, called Marines, shoot and kill suspects in coastal waters of Venezuela

We sail wherever we want, we fly wherever we want. This is the message of the rogue state to the world. Cause we carry the biggest and ready to shoot and kill against anyone who dares to stop the Americans. Caveat, the American terrorists can say this to bully weak and small states. The day is coming when they will be shot and killed for violating the territorial waters of big powers.

'The decision to blow up a suspected drug vessel passing through the Caribbean, instead of seizing the vessel and apprehending its crew, is highly unusual.' Trump said they won't do it again after killing 11 people in a boat in the Caribbeans just because they were suspects of smuggling drugs. There were many criticisms on this brutal and insensitive terrorist act of the American marines. Drug smuggling is just a crime, not a terrorist act, not deserving of a death sentence. And the suspects were just suspects, not proven to be drug smugglers. Could be anyone on a cruise.

But the American terrorists did not care. America is the biggest terrorist state, and their soldiers and police are terrorists in state uniforms. They shoot and kill as they like. What kind of rogue and lawless behaviour is this? Where is the condemnation from UN, ICC or western countries?

How much longer would the world stay silence to the American terrorists, claiming rules of law, democracy and human rights, to go on killing innocent people around the world at their whims and fancy? And they deployed marines, not coast guards to go after drug smugglers, or to threaten the Venezuelan govt of war? It is alright if they use their soldiers, ie national guards to patrol their own cities and kill their own Americans. The world can accept this. But going out of American territories, in international waters or other country's territorial waters is a different thing.

Are the Americans going to shout, this is American rules based order. American rules and American order? Or is this the behaviour of friendly and peaceful American thugs and terrorists?

Are the dead suspects going to get any justice and compensation from the rogue American state? Or this is American cowboy law and justice? No one is strong enough to bring the American terrorists to be judged in a court of law. Where is ICJ and ICC? Do the suspects have any rights to defend their innocence?

What do you think? Drug smuggling is not a capital offence in America. Most of the American rich and famous are junkies, including those in Washington and the White House. The white men drugged the Chinese in the 19th Century. Now they are drugging themselves. This is just retribution.






How real and effective are Singapore's F35s in the defence of the Island?

 The concept of parking a country's main defensive force, the F35s, 10,000km away across the Pacific Ocean, is a novel idea for little Singapore. Lack of airspace is a primary concern, fear of being destroyed on the ground is another. Parking the F35s in the safety of distance, and as a second strike to ward off potential enemy is a preventive strategy, provided the second strike can come in time and not meaningless.

The Americans have been using this strategy for decades, parking many of their offensive weapons in military bases all over the world but with different assumptions. Their intent and mission are different. They want to park their weapons as near as possible to their enemy to gain a first strike advantage. They have moved more bombers and troops to the island of Guam, to be near China instead of further away, even knowing that Guam is within range of Chinese missiles. They are also enlarging their strike capability in the Philippines.

The potential enemies of Singapore now have equally advanced weapons and aircraft to attack Singapore. Hypothetically, if an enemy strikes first, all the air bases of Singapore would no longer be serviceable to receive the F35s. And if such a day happened, would the F35s be back in time to be of any help? 10km across the Pacific Ocean needs how many air to air refueling processes? How many days would it need to fly back, assuming they do island hopping to return? By then the war is over and flying to Singapore would mean they have nowhere to land, let alone dropping bombs onto Singapore now occupied by the enemy. Dropping bombs on enemy homeland without the fuel to return, and no place to return and land is suicidal.

In view of the changing circumstances, this concept of parking in Mars needs a rethink. Singapore's best defensive strategy is to be friends and on good terms with its neighbours. And if really there is a need to park the F35s out of the island, Thailand or even China would be a better bet. At least it is a more realistic and practical option than parking in Mars.

What do you think? Is this a meaningful and workable military strategy? Or parking in America is actually a condition set by the Americans for selling F35s to Singapore and not a conscious choice of Singapore?

Caveat, we are laymen and are not able to think like military thinkers and strategists. Also we are not super talents with super thinking and planning ability.


Trump is dismantling the USA piece by piece and sector by sector

As they say, you can't change cooked rice gruel into its original rice grain state. Or put split milk on the ground into the cup that held it before. What is done cannot be undone, even if the harm is getting extremely painful
The USA has to learn to remember that what is does has ramifications. The mindset that the USA has 'exceptionalism' on its side is wearing thin and it is more likely that the USA is using 'deceptionalism' to hide its weakness.

Chinese students are not going to pour into USA universities just because Trump is chickening out again. Trump has ignited a White supremacist fanatism since his first term, that is not going away anytime soon. And Chinese parents better not be taken in by the about turn. The racial abuse against Chinese in the USA is not going away but will get worse. If Trump wakes up from the wrong side of bed again, or when White supremacist movements put pressure on him Trump will yet change course. Nothing is going to be certain. The man-child tailors his policies on whims and fancies, nothing on logic.

Trump should not base his policies on his whims and fancies forever, as the harm could be permanent. Just look at the state of USA farmers now having no avenues to turn back the clock. All farmers are suffering because of Trump's trade war with China. Trump is trying to turn back the clock by begging China to buy back its soya beans. It is not going to happen and USA farmers, the backbone of Trump's support, now has to bear the consequences. Who they should blame is obvious, but what is the use when Trump has to leave office after just a little more than three years for them to vent their frustrations. Unless Trump declares emergency rule, which he is planning to do with troop movements into cities for his grand plan to stay in power forever. But will that change the fate of farmers? It will change nothing for them.

Piece by piece and sector by sector Trump is dismantling the USA right before our eyes. The tariff war is strengthening the bargaining power of BRICS and also the SCO that the earlier trade war has set in motion. The USA is getting more isolated by the day and isolation is eating into the USA's hegemonic rule.
