US Library of Congress Web Archives include mysingaporenews Website in their collection of news

 Below is a mail I received from the US Library of Congress to include mysingaporenews in their collection of historic news from the Internet. They want to know what we are talking about. It is an opportunity for us to educate the Americans of their evil behaviour and threats to peace and that what they are doing are unacceptable and they would lose a lot of support and credibility if they did not change their warmongering behaviour and going around agitating and inciting wars.  

Singapore is a neutral country and our govt are very pro Americans. So they better take note of what we are saying. If Singapore as their close ally does not approve of their wild behaviour, wild accusations and gangsterism, the views of their enemies or non allies would be worse. 

Hope the Americans would understand the changing world, changing perceptions and narratives of the world, especially in SE Asia.

Do Americans know what is forced labour?

 Trump, Pompeo and now the simplistic woman Pelosi are calling for a ban on cotton products made in Xinjiang claiming that they were made by forced labour. Do these Americans understand what is forced labour coming from a country that was made rich by stealing the land from native Americans and slavery?

In the early days of the invasion and massacres of native Indians, the whites from Europe needed a lot of labour, free labour for their plantations and cotton fields. Did these things seem familiar, ring a bell? Cotton fields and free labour or forced labour? Oh in those days they did not used the term forced labour. They called their forced labour 'slaves' or niggers.  

Now where did they get their free or forced labour from? Or how did they get their free or forced labour? The white men went to their colonies in Africa. Then they set up hunting companies, hunting parties, hunters, not to hunt for wild animals, but to catch native Africans. They hunted them down like animals, caught them, chained them or put them into wooden cages. Then they sent them by the boat loads, in the cargo holes of ships, packed like cattles, and shipped them to the land they stole from the natives of America, after massacring them.

When these hunted men and women arrived in America, in chains and with barely anything to wear, mostly naked, they were put up for sale in the market place. And the white cotton field owners, plantation owners would bid for them after checking their teeth, skin, hair and general body conditions t make sure they are fit and strong, to be forced labour in their plantations and cotton fields.  Oops, my apologies, they did not call them forced labour then. They were called slaves. Slaves are different from forced labour of today.  Slaves are better, cheaper and no human rights to talk about.

In those days the great America did not talk about human rights. They did not know what human rights meant for the slaves. They also did not know what are the meanings of massacres or genocides. So massacring native Indians they called savages, dunno who was the real savages, the killer or those being killed. They also did not know what was forced labour and slavery was alright because the white men did not know what was human rights and freedom for the Africans they called niggers. They are still killing them today, now that there are not many native Americans left to be killed.

Would some kind senators or members of the House of representatives explain to idiot Trump, liar Pompeo and the silly woman Pelosi what is forced labour called in the good old days? And if they find it to understand, there were many great Hollywood movies like Kunta Kinte to be screened in Congress to educate these fools on what forced labour was, ie slavery.

The America today is rich because of free land they stole from the native Americans and free labour from forced labour they hunted and caught in Africa that they called slaves.

How can America be called a great country when they lived on lies, on wars, on killings, on stolen land and on forced labour, or slavery of Africans?  What kind of evil logic is that? America is never a great country but a lie the whites told to the world and to themselves. America is an evil country with evil people running it. It is an evil Empire.

India's Hindu Caste Disease Re-surfaces Again - A Warning To Singapore

Under the Hindus' BJP party led by Narendra Modi, the Hindu caste mentality has been openly displayed for the whole World to see. There is very little attempt to hide or disguise it. This culturally-ingrained caste-mentality is an ugly disease that is impossible to eradicate. Despite the promises of doing away with the caste system, this ugly disease continues to infect and infest the brains, hearts and souls of most Hindus, especially those in the upper echelons of society.

With a staunch traditional Hindu leader, the BJP Hindu nationalists have been pushing the minority communities into a corner. The minority communities, especially the Muslims, are feeling more humiliated now than at any time in the history of India since 1947.

Hindu mobs have lynched Muslims and others for eating beef or transporting cows, which are sacred to majority Hindus.

The Modi government has amended laws to fast track non-Muslim refugees from neighbouring countries. It has also split the Muslim-majority state of Jammu and Kashmir and stripped it of its decades-long constitutional autonomy.

This year, Muslims were singled out and blamed for spreading the COVID-19 coronavirus infections, after members of an Islamic group attended a religious gathering in Delhi. However, much larger Hindu religious gatherings during the COVID Pandemic received no such political, public or media opprobrium.

In addition, Muslim students and activists have been picked up and thrown into prison for allegedly instigating riots over a new controversial citizenship law introduced by the Modi Administration last winter, while many Hindu violent protagonists went scot-free.

India's Muslim community's sense of alienation is real. PM Modi's BJP makes no bones about its Hindu Majoritarian Ideology. Popular news networks openly demonize Muslims and other races. Many of India's once-powerful regional parties, which once stood by the minorities, appear to have abandoned them. The main Opposition Congress is accused of using the minorities cynically to harvest votes without providing much in return. The minority communities have few leaders to speak up for them.

Indian Muslims carry a double burden of being labelled as anti-national and as being appeased at the same time. The irony is that, while many Indians have bought the Hindu nationalist's bogey that Muslims are being "rewarded unfairly", the Muslims have in fact not benefited from any major socio-economic gains.

For decades, India's Muslims have been disproportionately squeezed into ghettos in India's teeming cities. Their share in India's elite federal police officers force was not even 3%, while Muslims make up more than 14% of the population. Only 8% of India's urban Muslims have jobs which paid a regular salary, less than double the national average.

Though enrolments of Muslim children at primary school levels are high, dropouts at high school are even higher, mainly due to economic deprivation at the national and local levels.

Also, Muslim representatives in India's Parliament have been declining speedily and consistently - below 5% in the elected lower house now, down from 9% in 1980. When the BJP swept to power in 2014, it was the first time a winning party did so without a single Muslim MP.

Religious electoral competition practised by the ruling BJP has led to the marginalization of Muslims. Modi's party polarises the country by making the Muslims a threat to the Hindu identity.

In fact, India is moving towards an ethnic Hindu dictatorship, born out of ethnic Hindu nationalisation, which inculcates a strong sense of belonging and of superiority of the Hindus over all other people in their ancient caste-fixated world view.

Back home, Singaporeans had better wake up now before it is too late. Don't play with your fate by romancing with a caste-entrenched mentality. Otherwise, one day you are bound to face the same fate as the minorities in India today.

The success of the Chinese Revolution on October 1st, 1949 had its profound implications for colonial countries oppressed and exploited by Western Imperialists.

      Today 1st of October, 2020 is the Chinese people's National Day. It is a proud day for all Chinese people. Today China and the Chinese people celebrate its 71st National Day. Most former colonial countries oppressed and exploited by the western imperial countries for centuries will join China and the Chinese people in jubilation to celebrate this happy occasion. The success of the Chinese Revolution in overthrowing western and Japanese imperialists had provided impetus, hope   and courage  for these ex-colonial countries great determination to drive out the European and American imperialist oppressors and exploiters. Kudos to these ex-colonial countries for at last they really succeeded in driving out the western colonialists and imperialists and achieved independence.

The success of the Chinese Revolution did not come easy. The fight against the atrocious and evil western and Japanese imperialists was long and agonizing. The Chinese fight and struggle against the European imperialists led by England, France, Russia and Germany and the American and Japanese imperialists began in the 1830s and in the Opium Wars of 1839-1842 and 1856-1860. In these long fight and struggles China faced the formidable forces of the combine military forces of the European, American and Japanese armies. China was defeated and humiliated and the wanton brutalities and atrocities of the imperialists  took the lives of more than 30 million Chinese people in addition to the great lost of properties and the lost of millions of square miles of Chinese lands and territories forcibly grabbed by England, Russia, France, Germany and Japan. The subsequent imposition of war indemnities by each and every of the imperialist countries caused China to lose hundreds of millions of Chinese silver dollars that went on to impoverish China for decades. With the success of the Chinese Revolution on October 1st, 1949, Chairman Mao Tsetung stopped this indemnity payment and ended the outrageous robbery of the Chinese people.

That first revolution against the western imperialists ended in outrageous failure. In the 1900s to1911 Doctor Sun Yatsen carried out another planned revolution against the Qing Dynasty and the western imperialists. Dr. Sun could not succeed earlier in the 1900s because just as in the Taiping Revolution of the 1850s to 1870s the western imperialist powers did not support him because they did not want to see a strong united China which could eventually curb their diabolical extra-territorial rights, their enclaves, concessions and their priviledges. Though Dr. Sun eventually succeeded in overthrowing the Qing Dynasty in 1911, his revolution was in a precarious position because western , American and Japanese imperialists still had very strong influence in Chinese politics, military and economic affairs. Many of the ex-Qing army generals assumed the power as warlords in the provinces under their command. They collaborated with the foreign imperialists for their own selfish interests and paid only lip service to Dr. Sun's national central government.

When Dr,Sun died prematurely in 1925 his chief general Chiang Kai-shek assumed full control of the Kuomintang government. Chiang Kai-shek was most incompetent and highly corrupted. His government indulged greatly in nepotism and cronyism. He placed one of his brother-in law Sung in charge of industries, trade and commerce and another Kung in charge of monetary, currency and finance. Chiang himself was in full control of politics and the military. In short national affairs was ruled in semblance as his own private family affairs. He and his most corrupted pro-American wife had great influence over him. 

In the meantime the Japanese imperialism and outrageous aggression against China increased greatly under the background of a choatic disunited China where local warlords were fighting among themselves with the objectivity of hoping to achieve full national control eventually. Also western extra territoriality still exists in some Chinese large cities in Shanghai, Wuhan, Nanking, Tienjin, Amoy and Canton. 

During this chaotic period providence would have it that China evolved with some of the most brilliant and intelligent patriotic force to save the country from destruction. It was the formation of the Chinese Communist Party led by founding members who were completely devoted  and delegated to the build up of a strong and powerful united China that will have honour, dignity and command great respect from all both friends and enemies. The founding members of the Chinese Communist Party were Professor Li Ta-chao, Professor Chen Tu-hsiu, Chairman Mao Tse-tung, Chou Enlai, Chang Kuo-tao, Chu Chiu-pai, Chu Teh and many others of about sixty of them. 

The first Chinese Communist Party Congress was held secretly  on July 1921, at a girls' boarding school in the French Concession of Shanghai. In this first congress there were two different views regarding the focus of the revolution. One view led by Professor Chen Tu'hsiu followed the Russian communist concept of using the industrial workers in the cities to foment the revolution. The other view held by Professor Li Ta'chao stressed the importance of the peasantry which constituted more than ninety percent of the population which occupy the principal position and agriculture was still the basis of the national economy. He said in estimating the forces of the revolution strong emphasis must be laid on the peasantry which was a very important part. Professor Li Ta'chao was later captured and executed by the traitor warlord Chang Tso'lin on April 28, 1927. Professor Li Ta'chaos work passed on to his young assistant Mao Tse'tung who carried on the peasant struggle and put his mentor's idea into practice.

Chairman Mao Tse'tung had a formidable task in carrying out the revolution. He not only had to focus on fighting the Japanese invaders and the Chiang Kai'shek Kuomintang clique but also had to contend with the pro Soviet Russian faction who were bent on using city industrial workers to drive the revolution. It was soon learnt that city industrial workers were easily lured by the Japanese and Chiang Kai'shek and massacred in great numbers far too often. Therefore Professor Li Ta'chao and Chairman Mao Tse'tung's aggrarian peasant revolution at last won all support. It must be stated that Stalin of Russia had no intention of supporting Mao Tse'tung to achieve a strong united China. He like the imperial western countries hope China under Mao and Chiang would be forever involved in never ending struggles to the benefits of Russia which still hold millions of square miles of Chinese lands in Siberia and Outer Mongolia. At the same time Chiang Kai'shek's Kuomintang had great support from the United States which provided his armies with arms, planes and finance. On the other scale of the calculation corrupted Chiang had no support from the Chinese masses. More then ninety percent of the Chinese population both in the cities and the aggrarian countryside strongly and faithfully supported the Chinese communist cause of the revolution. This massive undivided support of the patriotic Chinese people was decisive in ensuring the success of the Chinese  Communist Revolution in achieving and forging a strong and powerful united Chinese nation no longer to be trifled with by the Western , American and Japanese imperialists.

However, in this moment of great joy and jubilation in celebrating China's 71st National Day, China and the Chinese people must not forget the great sacrifice of those Chinese people and patriots who died in the cause of the revolution to  save the great Chinese Civilization, the great Chinese people and nation and Chinese honour, self-respect and dignity.

On this Chinese 71st National Day on Thursday, 1st October,2020, let the country and all proud Chinese people drink three three toasts to the spirit of the selfless leaders, the soldiers in the arm forces of the army, navy and airforce which include the missile-rocketry unit, the Chinese scientists,  engineers and technicians who contributed immensely to the success of the revolution and the great masses of the supportive population whose patriotic support was imperative for the great grand success of the revolution.

Below is appended the names of some of the great leaders and saving stars of China.

Chairman : Mao Zedong - 26-121893 To 09-09-1976,  Shaoshan, Hunan

Premier Zhou En Lai  -  1898 To 08-01-1976     Huaian, Jiangsu

Xu Xiangqian       1901                          Shanxi

The above are China's First Generation leaders.

China is fortunate to be blessed with subsequent highly qualified and just as competent and delegated Second Generation leaders led by Deng Xiaoping, Third Generation leaders led by Jiang Zemin, Zhu Rongji and Hu Jintao, Wen Jiapow and Fourth Generation leaders led by Xu Jinping and Premier Li Ke Qiang.

With the rogue and banditry country of the United States now adopting very highly hostile policies to contain China's progress and development this Fourth Generation leaders are more than competent and delegated to defend China's interests and sovereignty.  The US desperately wants to impose a New Cold War on China which will benefit nobody but will be very detrimental and destructive to all countries in the world including the US itself. In this US attempt to start a New Cold War it seems it is not getting any support not even from its allies. US is now using hybrid warfare to try to destroy China and it is trying to take down all Chinese scientific and technological developments some of which are more advance and well ahead of the US. China will now have to prepare for a new Long March to defend Chinese science and technology from being robbed by the hoodlums of the Evil Empire of the US. 

I, Southernglory1 like all proud and peace loving Chinese people wish to toast to the glorious People's Republic of China on this auspicious occasion of China's 71st National Day.  -    A Toast to 'Long live The People's Republic of China.'

Covid19 - China's vaccine diplomacy

Chinese President Xi Jinping told the World Health Assembly at its virtual gathering in May that his country’s Covid-19 vaccines, when available, would be treated as a “global public good”. China has vowed that African countries would be among the first to benefit from an approved vaccine.

It has also said priority would be given to Mekong River countries – Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam – and promised the Philippines would be given quick access, while Latin American and Caribbean nations would receive US$1 billion in loans to buy the vaccines.

What is ‘vaccine diplomacy’?

“China is conducting ‘vaccine diplomacy’ by making promises to many countries in the developing world,” said Huang Yanzhong, a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations, a New York think tank.

“However, it remains to be seen whether China will work with the US if its vaccine proves effective. Lack of trust between the two is hindering cooperation in public health.”

 

The above is quoted from SCMP. With 4 candidates from China in the final stages of Phase 3 trial, China is posed to be among the first countries to make the Covid19 vaccines available to the world and has officially talking about this. The selfish and irresponsible Americans are still talking about America First and giving all the hints that they would look after themselves first if they have the vaccine.

China is also a major drug and pharmaceutical supplier and would be able to make the vaccines in bulk for the world.  Countries that are friendly to China, as mentioned in the above quote from Yahoo News would be the first recipients of Chinese diplomacy and generosity.  

The evil West, especially the devious Americans and Australians would likely to be the last in China's list of recipients.  They would get their shares but would be down the line after Asians, Africans and Latin Americans get theirs first. The nasty anti China Australians are getting worried to be left behind and Morrison had even spoken out abour sharing the vaccines with the rest of the world.  Sure, China will share, but enemies of China will get last. And right at the bottom of the list must be the USA.

This is what Fauci said of China. ' In July, the US’ top infectious diseases official Anthony Fauci said it was unlikely the US would use vaccines developed by China or Russia, given their regulatory systems were far more opaque than those in the West.'

Why should China be generous with the evil Americans that have been smearing China, denouncing and discrediting China with all kinds of lies, about how not to trust China is, about how not to rely or depend on China? China should give the Americans the middle finger. And to tell Trump or Biden not to bother to call Xi. They would not pick up the hotline. Just stay in the queue and wait.

The day has come when the evil and trouble making Americans would have to beg China for help to save American lives.
