For the USA, even if they cannot find loopholes, they will invent or fabricate them, just like in Iraq. Huge metal pipes being moved were tied to building of weapons of mass destruction, milk powder factories were tied to making chemical/biological weapons and the West even invented a 'Chemical Ali' to make their lies more believable. Colin Powell even held a vial of fake biological agent to show the UN. Had that been real, would he be holding it in his hands? The stupid people at the UN really are one of a kind to believe that.

Nobel Peace Prize or Nobel War Prize and American fake superiority in technology
If I am bold enough to predict, the 'Nobel Peace Prize' is already reserved for either Trump or Blinken, with Zelenskyy a possibility. To be honest, the 'Nobel Peace Prize' ought to be renamed the 'Nobel War Prize', after war monger Barrack Obama was given the award. Many have thrown criticism over his winning the prize.
Now what about Wang Yi brokering the peace deal between Iran and Saudi Arabia? Is that not worthy of consideration? No Mainland Chinese have ever been considered for any Nobel Prizes because they are Socialists, right? Everything in geopolitics is based on political interpretation of good and bad, which is dictated by the Anglo-Saxon Whites and not on merits.
Now, the USA and the West are realizing that there is a hidden treasure trove of Chinese cutting edge innovations from Chinese universities and researchers, that were ignored in the past, all written in Chinese that were never given any serious review by Western academics and just thought to be run-of-the mill irrelevant materials. That mistake was only fully realized with the Chinese domination in infrastructure, computing, space exploration, EV innovations, shipbuilding and now aviation.
The same strategic mistakes that they USA and West have always been making was their arrogance in looking down on Chinese capabilities, always thinking that Chinese are inferior in mental capacity compared to the Whites.
In a comparison of average IQs of Asians and Anglo-Saxon Whites, Asians topped the list with Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and China at the pinnacle.
Lee Kuan Yew said a long time ago that Asians should never be 'whitewashed' by propaganda gloating about the superiority of the Whites and blindly adopting their values at the expense of alienating their own culture.
Trump breaking India's pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
Trump has been reported to be deporting 18,000 undocumented Indians. We can see the noose tightening against India. With the Indian economy unravelling, this is another whammy for India to work out. What is Modi going to do? Pay another visit to Washington to hug Trump, as he did with Biden and hope for some relief? And the Republican supporters will clap and cheer, while the Indians will make a song and dance about it.
The clowns in Washington are compulsive liars. They lie about everything under the sun, even with the truth before their eyes. How the lies have now unraveled about China, about Xinjiang, about Russia collapsing. Oh, not to forget that China collapsed twenty years ago. I just am waiting for the biggest lie to fall apart when the real USA state of the economy is exposed.
All the job figures gloated about are impossible with retail giants closing stores, food and beverage outlets shuttering, agricultural sectors cutting workers and manufacturing hardly moving into strong enough position to absorb the unemployed. Hard to believe the rosiness.
Now another lie has been revealed by the USA itself, admitting that the USA has more troops in Syria than reported. Russia is withdrawing most of its military logistics from Syria, but not totally abandoning its base. The USA can now face a Syria descending into anarchy, and a population not yet tasting the likes of the Iraqis and celebrating Assad's fall. Now the West is giving Assad a bad name and then slowly going to skin him about the existence of torture chambers set up by him. Does that ring a bell in Iraq as well?

Property tax for seniors and retirees with no income and no money
Many seniors and retirees of the babyboomer generation are still staying in landed or private properties, some in bigger HDB flats bought at a time when property prices were cheaper than a COE. Today they are the lucky few that could stay in such homes that our young professionals could only salivate and be contented with a 4 room flat. The value of their properties could be in the tens of millions or at least nearly a million in bigger HDB flats. The downside, many would have retired many years or moons ago, and has no more income albeit a little savings to pass their twilight years.
A letter from Inland Revenue, for property tax could be shocking to these no money but asset rich oldies. Fortunately, I might be wrong, heard that the property tax of some private or landed properties could be lesser than for not landed private properties or bigger HDB flats.
Anyway, a letter from Inland Revenue could send fears to these asset rich oldies. Where to find the money to pay the taxes? Govt subsidies, Assurance Package, got enough left after food and PUB bills, to pay property taxes? Unless they downgrade, many would be caught in a bind.
How many of you out there are caught in such a situation, looks very good, very rich, which is true, but no cash or very little cash to pay for other necessities and little luxury and comfort, and unable to pay property tax!
