It is funny to read in the media that Singapore is seeking public
opinion on its role as the Chair of Asean and whether it is the right
thing to push the agenda on Rohingya and North Korea. Asking this
question is a sign of insecurity. They are not even sure of what they
are going to do. Perhaps they know that they are stirring controversies,
things that are not only unpopular but a waste of time to the rest of
the Asean members.
The Rohingya issue is serious and definitely something that Asean
members, or at least quite a number would be affected, notably Myanmar,
Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. The fate of the refugees and their
outflow into the region impact some Asean countries directly and it is a
subject that must be discussed in Asean. It is a job cut out for the
Asean Chair.
The nuclear threat from North Korea is at best a red herring. The North
Koreans are not going to send their ICBMs tipped with nuclear warheads
flying all over Asean. Only fools in Asean believe in this piece of shit
and rushing to hide under their beds. As far as Asean is concerned,
North Korea is as good as irrelevant. Why waste precious time talking
about it when there are better things to do? North Korea testing its
own defence weapons is a defensive act. Conducting massive wargames
outside North Korea to simulate an invasion is an aggressive and
provocative act.
North Korea is an issue affecting South Korea and Japan and the American
Empire. The immediate neighbours like China and Russia are going about
their lives as if nothing has happened. Only the Americans cannot sleep,
or not really, only the devils in Washington cannot sleep. The rest of
the Americans can sleep very well unless they allowed the devils in
Washington to attack the North Koreans. This is a self inflicted problem
they invited themselves. Leave the North Koreans alone and nothing will
happen. The North Koreans are no fools to invite a total annihilation
of their country to start a war with the Americans.
So what is this shit about North Korea in the Asean agenda? Why must
Asean be embroiled in an American agenda? Is Asean an American pet dog?
The Americans have their empire problems, let them sweat their small
stuff. Asean should be an innocent not participant bystander minding its
own business. Asean must not be hijacked by the Americans to do the
dirty work for the Americans and to make an enemy out of North Korea.
For goodness sake, Asean is an economic organisation and should be
talking to North Korea for more trade and economic cooperation. Why
should Asean by involved in the politics of the American Empire? Asean
has nothing better to do and becoming willing partner and running dog of
the American Empire? Let's hope there are wise leaders in Asean to
steer Asean away from the sea of turbulence and threats of war cooked up
by the Americans. Let the Americans go and fight and die. It is none of
Asean's business.
It would be a very sad day for the people of Asean if Asean turns itself
into an American tool, serving American agenda and interests and making
enemies of North Korea and China to please the Americans, and without
the Americans paying a single cent for this submissive role.

Why need to raise taxes when so many taxes have been raised?
The govt is taking it for granted that it is its right to raise taxes
whenever it likes. The people must ask the govt to justify for the
numerous taxes that it has raised and more to come, especially the
monstrous GST which some clowns are still saying that it is good for the
poor. If that is the case, some cynics suggested that it should be
raised to 100% so that more poor people can benefit. Sophistry at works.
The people voted for a govt to run the country efficiently, not to
raise taxes. The people did not pay the politicians in the millions just
to raise taxes. If that is what a super expensive govt is good for,
might as well vote for a cheaper govt and pay lesser taxes.
The govt must explain to the people why there is a need to raise taxes, what are the taxes for, and how much is needed? It must not be a blank cheque without justification. And when the need and amount are logically explained and accepted, ie for public good and necessary and essential, not fake gardens, F1s, F35s, paying foreigners to study here with billion of dollars, paying millions in PA activities for PRs and foreigners, or building crown jewels. The latter is a business and should not be paid with taxes, should be self financing and profit generating from viable business models.
When the sum needed is justified, and before going the convenient route to tax the people, should not the govt first look at the reserves and see how much can be used? What is the point of having reserves for the sake of reserves and everyday thinking of raising taxes?
How much reserves we have and how much should be used first before resorting to increase the tax burden of the people should be discussed in Parliament. The people have been told that the country’s reserves are in the hundreds of billions if not trillions? Really ah? If we have so much money in reserves, why can’t some be used to lower the tax burden of the people?
Or we have so much reserves that it is so frightening to tell the people, that if the people know how many trillions we have they will die of shock! So better not tell the people, just keep on taxing the people and pretend the reserves did not have enough money and the govt must raise taxes and taxes and taxes to help the poor people.
What the hell does the govt need to raise taxes for, how much does the govt need, to do what, raise taxes for what? Boh lui is it? Didn’t the govt brag or said the reserves got so much money, chiak buay leow? Why every now and then think of raising taxes, fees, charges to burden the people already living in one of the most expensive places in the whole wide world?

Redbean on Youtube
While surfing the net I was pleasantly surprised by the few youtube
clips of my postings in mysingaporenews. These were not done by me of
course. The youtube clips were just my articles and read out by western
newsreaders, a guy and a gal, in perfect English. It is a nice feeling
to know that some of my articles are worthy of being read and converted
to youtube to reach a bigger audience. I must thank the producers of the
youtube clips on my articles.
Also, there was a book on the South China Sea ruling by the kangaroo court published by Oxford Press. Could not remember the title. And redbean's comment was quoted and even footnoted. Well, well, I must be making some sense in some posts.
Here are the links to the youtube clips.

Xi Jinping’s anti corruption drive
The latest toll in Xi Jinping’s corruption is a Gen Zhang Yang, director
of the state’s Central Military Commission’s political department. This
once high and mighty general was under investigation for ‘gravely
violated disciplinary protocols and broke the law, was suspected of
bribery as well as taking bribes, and holding valuable assets whose
origins are unclear’. So far 1.5m party officials have been brought down
due to corruption charges since 2012.
The disciplinary purge by Xi Jinping is very real and very welcomed by the people and has brought back confidence in the Chinese Communist Party’s leadership. The latest casualty is not going to be the last as corruption has been going on for years and is quite pervasive.
To prevent more tragic death, maybe Xi Jinping could offer an amnesty for those corrupt officials to own up and spare the severe punishment. Such a move would speed up the anti corruption drive and clean up whatever there is that is still hounding the Chinese govt and CCP.
When the clean up has reached its final stage with corruption at a minimum, the CCP may want to reflect on this century old crime and culture and build in some measures so that corruption will not raise its ugly head again. One thing worthy to look at is to raise the income of military and govt officials to raise their standard of living comparable to those in the private sector. Though it is unwise to peg their salaries to the productive economy, it is equally unwise to keep the salaries of govt and military officials down or too far below the private sector.
If raising salary is too conspicuous and the people may not take it kindly, they could give the officials more appointments with pay for each additional appointment held. This would disguise the true income of the officials, a kind of legitimizing corruption since corruption cannot be totally eradicated. Legitimising corruption would make everything look nice and proper and legal, and no need for suicide or pursuing corrupt officials. The people would not know what is happening and everyone would be happy, especially the officials being paid handsomely.
This is food for thought for Xi Jinping.

Jedi Kim JU perfected his laser weapon
The news of North Korea successfully tested its latest ICBM with a range
exceeding 13,000km was greeted by the imbeciles with disbelief. Some
imbeciles are preparing to take preventive measures like sounding sirens
and digging deeper holes into the ground or mountain in preparation for
a nuclear strike by the ‘mad and irrational’ Kim Jung Un when they are
the real retards.
Kim Jung Un has announced that this final test of the Hwasong 15 completed his nuclear programme, ie, it is now a full fledged nuclear power that can strike anywhere in the world, particularly all the American cities should the aggressive and warmonger Americans think it is still safe to attack North Korea. Just because the North Koreans have the ability to hit back does not mean that they are going to hit every idiotic city in the world. But many imbeciles are probably hiding under their beds fearing that their self delusion of a North Korean threat is coming true. A country developing its own defense weapons is NOT an aggressive act. If that is the case, the evil Empire must be the most aggressive country having perfected and possesses more than 7,000 nuclear warheads and threatening to use it at every occasion, real, imagined or fabricated.
The only country that is really feeling cheese off is the big bad wolf, ie the evil Empire. Now it is no longer in a position to threaten to conduct a preemptive strike against North Korea at its whim and fancy, at its own time using fabricated excuses like WMD in Iraq. But it is continuing with its war mongering rhetoric of destroying the whole of North Korea in outrageous speech in the UN. The North Koreans now can deliver and will deliver a few nuclear warheads into American homeland if attacked. North Korea has finally achieved nuclear security and safety from an attack by the mad Americans.
Now what would the world bully be doing? ‘We don’t recognize you, we don’t recognize you, we don’t recognize you as a nuclear power…’ This is about the most ridiculous comment that could come from the mad men and women in Washington. Like it or not, recognize it or not, the North Korea is a nuclear power state. The daft Americans can continue to live in their world of make belief and refuse to accept reality. North Korea as a nuclear power is here to stay. Period.
Now which other clowns are crouching in fear of the North Korean nuclear threat? Why is it that China, Russia, Iran and many central Asian and African states are not shivering in fear? Why are the Indonesians, the Thais, the Pinoys, Myanmese and many Asean states not bothering to say anything and life goes on as per normal? The big question, why should North Korea want to threaten them or fire its nuclear missiles at these countries? There is a saying, if one does not do evil, there is no need to fear darkness. I hope Singapore does not behave like an unthinking American crony and uses its position as Chairman of Asean to parrot American biased agenda and rhetoric against North Korea. North Korea is not an Asean problem but an American problem for world domination. Stupid. The other Asean states should stop Singapore from hijacking Asean to spread the sick agenda of the evil Empire.
My congratulation to the North Koreans for bringing peace to the Korean Peninsular. The North Koreans have issued a statement that it would be a responsible nuclear power and will help to protect and preserve peace in the world. The mad evil Americans can continue to demonise the North Koreans and only its silly cronies and little USAs would believe in this American lie. Well, stupidity has no cure.
The world is now a safer place with the evil Empire having one less country to start a war. Iran better quickly develop the same capability to ensure peace and not be attacked by the evil Empire and its cronies.
The air head woman representing the evil Empire in the UN is talking about war, seeking war. She really did not know what she was talking about, thinking that war is still an aggressive game for the evil Americans to go around bombing other countries and getting away scot free. If war started she would be evaporised with millions of Americans without even knowing what happened. A dying empire will get this kind of imbecile, thinking that she is the best, to represent them in a forum for mature adults. Trump’s temperamental outburst often is a kind of showmanship, and he would return to sanity quickly, but this knave would just go on and on for real.
The return of Jedi Kim KU will keep the evil Empire on its watch list.
