US no longer trusted

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qoF1M26zRg

 This 8 minute clips explains why the lying Americans are no longer trusted around the world. And they got the cheek to keep blabbing if China can be trusted. Liars pointed at others calling others liars. Thiefs calling thiefs. 

You can't do that all the time. Now that the American power is waning, the rejection of the lying and cheating American bully is getting prominence. It is now easier to turn down the Americans, ignore the Americans.

No one trusted the Americans anyone! Not even the Americans themselves. They know that they are a nation of liars, especially in the top political circus.

Now China is stepping up to be the power broker, deal maker, as a trusted neutral middle man.

Why Dictatorial Leaders Cling Onto The Throne Of Power

A capitalist model inevitably leads to crony capitalism. This crony capitalism in turn leads to chronic dictatorship, when too much power is vested in one man (or one woman, who is usually the wife or concubine of the man in power and she exercises her power in the shadows).

History is filled with such greedy dictators who never fail to make the lives of the citizens miserable and suffering, because of the continuous and persistent sucking of money, energy and resources from the masses in one form or another, in one way or another.

When the same power-greedy people or their descendants sit on the Throne of Power for too long, they, by hook or by crook, are bound to prolong their stay on Power. They will, without fail, cling unto the Throne of Power like a bull dog tenaciously biting someone's flesh and refusing to let go until it iis knocked off by force.

With such power-hungry and power-greedy dictators ruling the country, the people are bound to suffer tremendous economic hardship, torturing pains and mysterious deaths.

Most of these power-hungry and power-greedy dictators perpetuate their reign through raw and direct ruthless methods.

However, there are some who are more cunning. They manipulate the laws and the Constitution to benefit themselves, their families and their cronies, to buy loyalty and obedience, and to sustain and prolong their stay on the Seat of Power.

The longer a corrupted dictator stays in power, the more skeletons he will collect and hide in his cupboard, cabinet, closet and an enormous iron safe deep in the fortress of CompliCity, with layer after layer and ring-fence after ring-fence of complex rules and regulations to allay and dispel the notion of conflicts of interests due to the three most common, gullible and unforgivable misdeeds called CNC (Corruption, Nepotism and Cronyism) that every ruthless dictator, weak or strong, succumbed to.

The more skeletons he has, the more he is afraid to lose his power and be overthrown, because he knows fully well that the masses will go after his blood and his neck when his karma catches up with him to make him falls from grace.

As such, he keeps perpetuating this reign by putting up false flags, to give him grounds for excuses, in order to cling onto the Throne of Power.

He will keep giving the false impression that he will be stepping down soon. However, he will not give a time frame as to when he will be stepping down, making the people guessing all the time.

As the public's expectation gets stronger, he will make an anti-climax move to disappoint their expectation by giving an excuse that he has to carry on ruling in and for the interests of the country (but actually in his own interests).

In the final analysis, all dictators are corrupt to a certain degree. Some extremely and rampantly corrupt and ruthless. Some subtly and indirectly corrupt and cunning.

Don't you think so?

National Assets Must Be Owned By The Citizens Collectively, Not By An Individual Public or Private Entity, Legally Or Not

 
From whatever information gathered, the painted pictures about the ownership, responsibility, reporting, accountability and transparency of GIC and TH are very troublesome and worrisome.

Troublesome in that it is very difficult and problematic for any concerned member of the public to secure reliable detailed information and important reports from the two entities for a close and thorough scrutiny.

Worrisome because national and public assets have been transferred and privatised, and therefore the public has lost ownership, control and say over the national and public assets held by the two entities.

It seems to look like the legality of the two entities have been specially curved out to avoid and prevent scrutiny by and from the real stakeholders of state assets, i.e. the citizens.

My gut feelings tell me that something is not right.

If Singapore is taken over by a rogue government, or a foreign government by proxies, then all our National Reserves and National Assets will be in serious dangers and jeopardy.

The laws governing these two entities must be changed to give back power to the People instead of to an individual heading a ministry, such as the Minister for Finance, or exclusively to a small group of individuals, such as a board of directors with personalities solely affiliated or associated with a specific political grouping.

As I envisage, the present arrangements can be easily sabotaged or manipulated if the individual and group concerned have hidden agendas and are determined to pursue them in their own selfish interests, whatever they may be.

Think deeper.

New Bird Flu Outbreak In 46 Countries Already

Scientists are warning the world that while we are immersed in our individual and collective efforts to tackle the furious spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus, there exists concurrently an explosion in another deadly disease that could pose a threat to public health globally.

The H5N8, a subtype of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV), has been discovered many years ago, but during 2020 a series of emerging and ongoing H5N8 outbreaks in avian populations across dozens of countries have led to the death and slaughter of millions of birds worldwide.

The affected geographic regions have been expanding continuously, and at least 46 countries have reported highly pathogenic H5N8 AIV outbreaks already.

If leaders ignore this worrisome trend, and do not monitor and contain the spread of this new H5N8 avian flu virus, the World may have a double health pandemic at hand.

While the most vulnerable animals to H5N8 virus are birds, humans have also been infected by this virus recently.

An outbreak of the avian flu in Russia in December 2020 jumped to poultry workers in a farm in southern Russia – representing the first time the H5N8 virus has been found in humans.

While that was a first for H5N8, it certainly wasn't a first for clades and subclades related to H5N8, nor for avian flu viruses in general.

There is now a total of 862 confirmed cases of human infection with the Avian flu, including 455 deaths. These cases are from 17 countries, spreading across Europe, Eurasia, Middle-East, Africa, America, Asia and elsewhere.

Point to note, 76% of the H5N8 cases are from Egypt and Indonesia.

In most of the recent outbreaks, a clade of H5N8 called 2.3.4 has become the dominant infector worldwide.

This shows that the H5N8 virus has a propensity for rapid global spread in migratory birds.

At the same time, this virus also display evidence of constant evolution, genetically re-assorting themselves with parts of other Avian viruses.

Though the Covid-19 Pandemic has seen a big reduction in the Type A and Type B common flu, however, in over the same time frame, a number of highly pathogenic H5Ny AIVs, including H5N1, H5N2, H5N5, and H5N8 subtypes, have been spreading across the whole world.

These viruses show particular cell-binding adaptations that could pose greater risks for human transmission, including potentially human-to-human transmissibility.

Therefore, it is imperative that we must be now take responsibility, instead of taking umbrage, to keep a very close watch on this H5N8 Variant and ensure that they do not spread among our community.

Allow PRs to buy landed properties? Instant 'huat ah' for Singaporeans

 

Indian PR:

My family lives in Sg for many years.
Yet,I am not allowed to buy FREEHOLD LANDED PROPERTY.

This is strange and I don’t understand the reason.

We live like singaporeans.
Go to hawkers,my kids go to neighbourhood schools and we do our part for our local community like helping out in neighbourhood events and charities.

You see,we are normal people,ordinary working class who work hard and save some money.
We intend to let our kids go and serve NS as they take Sg as their motherland.
Reason we want to buy Landed house is we want to live as one big family after our kids get married,at least till their own kids grow older....

So,I still waiting for opportunities.
Hope I don’t miss my chance before rich foreigners snap these freehold houses up.

This is a comment posted in TRE.

If Singapore wants property prices to go sky high, it should relax the rulings against PRs buying landed properties. I can guarantee landed property prices would shoot to the sky. The prices of small landed properties would hit $10m or $20m.  Singaporeans can sell, become millionaires and downgrade to HDB flats and no need to work. The downgrading would also push HDB prices to above $1m, making HDB flat owners also very rich, asset rich. Some can cash out and migrate to JB, Batam and Bintang. Cannot go to western countries unless they don't mind being victims of hate Asian crimes.

In the long run, all the private properties would be owned by PRs and Singaporeans would only live in million dollar HDB flats. No chance to buy private properties as their income could not afford it. 

Would this be nice? The PRs are begging to buy your landed properties. They are very nice people. Think the imbeciles are salivating at this suggestion.
