Japan is the outcast among Asian countries

 Japan is the odd one out in the G7, a clear-cut Asian race masquerading as White. They were accepted into the G7 then, as Japan had the No. 2 GDP in world ranking. Now at No. 4 but still sliding, overtaken by Germany. But now it is a battle of the sliders, fighting over who is going down faster.

Brazil, Indonesia and Mexico are rising stars that have the potential to be bigger than some of the pretenders in the G7. India is another with potential if given the right Government in place.

Japan is the pariah among Asians. It is a country that always tried to snuggle itself into the White's embrace. There was a time when the Japanese even demanded that they be treated as Whites in Africa or South America. Nowadays, most Asians care the fxxk about the Japs. Japan is the outcast among Asian countries. Most having good vibes with the Japanese today are just for economic reasons.

Fraudulent western Democracy failing while Chinese Socialism triumphs

 The failing of the democratic system and the rise of the socialist system, (called communism by the USA and the West), particularly in China, is making the USA and the West really paranoid, nervous and fearful. That is why the whole Anglo-Saxon White clique are banding together with all hands to the pump, to save the USA hegemony. Whatever is needed and dictated by the USA, they just follow, even willing to sacrifice their country for the interest of the USA.

How could a democratic system, always touted and gloated to be the best system and putting socialism in the dust, now be playing second fiddle to socialism in terms of innovation and development, that is even excelling the collective West? The usual narrative that China is stealing their technology no longer holds water, with China excelling in areas that the USA and the West have not even been able to touch China. A leader in innovation does not need to steal from one clearly falling behind. That is just like arguing that putting the cart before the horse will make the cart run faster.

India is one example of why democracy is a hindrance to its attempt to move forward faster. With all the rules and regulations and a minefield of encumbrances inherited from the British, nothing is able to move forward smoothly. And they always like to tout that India is the biggest democracy in the world, trying to push its potential to no avail.

It really looks imminent that Trump is going to destroy the USA, an agenda he failed to fulfill during his first term. Will 47th be the last President of the USA instead of the 45th, both Trump's legacy. This might be the seventh and most massive and destructive bankruptcy for Trump, the bullshitter, fraudster and the first President elected on a criminal record.

Oh, by the way, there was one social media post warning the USA voters that Trump may get rid of Presidential elections in the USA going forward. Now, will that mean Trump will rule USA for life or is that how the USA will end? As I say before, I love conspiracy theories that sometimes come true.

Tariff War - Who is the unfair party? Who started it?

 French cognac producers are saying that tariffs on cognac by China has nothing to do with tariffs on EVs. Really? France wants to eat China's lunch, and when China wants to eat French dinner, they cried foul. What kind of a warp mentality is that?

Now Mexico is being targeted by Trump with a 25% tariff on Mexican imports. Mexico's new President, Claudia Sheinbaum has warned Trump of retaliation that comes with any tariff imposed on Mexican exports to the USA. The 25% tariffs threatened by Trump was an attempt to cut off Chinese manufacturers investing in Mexico to evade USA tariffs in the first place by punishing Mexico.

The USA automakers also have large investments in Mexico as well and will be affected too. The USA is literally cutting its nose to spite its face, but the intention was to force manufacturing to relocate to the USA, which is impossible to achieve.

Mexico has a trade agreement with the USA, which Trump is going to dismantle. But Mexico is a big country to be threatened, having trade relations with China and other South American countries. Mexico is interested in joining BRICS and Trump is making that happen much faster.

What about BRICS saying that any enemy of the USA is our friend and are welcomed? Trump is going to make 'Mexico Great Again', a mantra we will be hearing more often with other countries. No wonder even Russia and China went all out to congratulate Trump over his re-election, Putin sarcastically of course, while Xi said that the USA citizens have chosen what they want.

You will notice that both Putin and Xi are not fazed by the USA election result. Talk about Russia and China interfering in the USA election that is of no difference to them.

American terrorists playing the Muslim card by recruiting Rohingyas to be terrorists fighting the Myanmar government

 It is the same tactic as using radicalized Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang to ferment unrest and terrorism. When China cracked down on them, we saw all the fabricated news about concentration camps and mistreatment of Uyghur Muslims. That only died down with the other side of the story surfaced about the USA's real hatred of Muslims in the Middle East by arming Israel to commit genocide against them..

Now, if the Myanmar military cracks down hard on the Rohingya taking up arms, can you see what is going to happen? It is again going to be Myanmar Military using genocide to get rid of Muslim Rohingyas. And now it will be even construed as a Buddhist country, (as Myanmar is predominantly a Buddhist country), using religious hatred against Rohingya Muslims. This was already being fabricated earlier. Another love story in the works of how the West is again loving Rohingya Muslims being fabricated by the MSM and Western Governments. Hope that the Muslims of the world can see the real agenda of the USA and the West. They are fermenting wars and destruction, and Myanmar must never succumb.

Pony ride across the Tibetan Plateau grassland - A pictorial essay

 

 

Pony rides and archery practice in the grassland near the South eastern Tibetan Plateau. Click to enlarge pics.

 

These ponies are likely to be the same specie that the Mongols used to conquer Europe, riding them across central Asia.

 

A Tibetan Yak for photo ops.

 

A pony ride on the huge expanse of the grassland, no crowded concrete buildings of big cities. Feel the space, spaciousness, feel the air, feel freedom and away from all the stresses.

 

Land, land, land, as far as the eyes can see. What a tantalising view for land scarce Singaporeans. How many landed properties and HDB estates can be built here? A difference sense of being, in a place with very few human beans, and a breathtaking view of a corner of planet earth, unspoilt and not trampled by humanity.
