USA is killing Europe just like killing its middle class

 USA is killing Europe just like killing its middle class. All to cater to the top 1%, of which the ruling class are from. Some of those in the ruling class like George Bush, are even members of the Deep State.

Democracy in the USA is to cater to the 1%, by the 1% and for the 1%. That is why democracy must never be mitigated by the rise of socialist China. It will be too heavy a price to pay for the top 1%.

You see, Trump is even going to cut taxes for the super-rich like Elon Musk and himself included but increasing taxes for the rest at the bottom of the pyramid with his tariffs. I think talking about tariff is meaningless, as Trump does not even know how it works other than punishing China.

You cannot explain the effect of tariffs to someone as blur as a sotong, as Trump is brain-dead on the issue. Or is Trump just pretending that he does not understand how tariff works? Remember Trump is a seasoned conman, having conned his way out of six bankruptcies.

America and Singapore face the same Indian dilemma

 

8 min clip on America's Indian problem. Singapore is facing exactly the same problem as America. America has Indians taking over the tech and management jobs. Singapore has Indians taking over the IT and banking jobs. The top American tech companies were already established before the influx of Indians to take over these jobs. The banks in Singapore were already established before the Indians take over the banking jobs.

Both America and Singapore are having the same Indian immigration problems. Is Singapore copying America, like whatever is good for America is good for Singapore?

Would the SEZ in Malaysia be scuttled by kampong politicians?

Johor-Singapore SEZ a ‘big plus’ for firms to tap both sides’ different strengths: PM Wong

Singapore-based businesses have shown “a lot of interest” in expanding to the upcoming special economic zone in Johor, says Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, as he wraps up a two-day visit to Malaysia for a leaders’ retreat with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.  CNA

The success of SEZ needs no further elaboration. Singapore's SEZ was transplanted to Suzhou, China and this has been repeated all over China, creating new successful economic zones and vitality, providing jobs and revenues for China. Shenzhen, the Silicon Valley of China is by far the most successful SEZ in China. The same concept has been spread across the BRI countries, Vietnam, Indonesia, in the Middle East, Central Asia, Africa and Latin America. 

With the economies of the world being integrated, with globalisation, sharing and transfer of technology, free trade, SEZ maximises the strength of a multiple of countries to turn them into economic miracles. The host countries provide the land, infrastructure and manpower, foreign investors provide the funds, technology, products and services to market and sell to the world. It is a win win formula for all parties. It is an international formula for cooperation to compete in the world market.

All countries, especially the smaller ones, cannot afford to stay isolated in their little kampongs while the whole world is racing ahead in science, technology and economic developments. Even China has to invite foreign investors to participate in their SEZs initially with many concessions. Countries must take advantage of the strength of other countries for their own economic development and prosperity. Closing the gate, hiding in the kampong would only see the world passes by and be left behind.

Indonesia and Thailand have done so. Vietnam has done so. Anwar is now pushing Malaysia into the race with this SEZ in Johore in collaboration with Singapore. If successful, Johore's SEZ would be like the Kowloon to Hong Kong, much bigger than Singapore. Both sides would benefit economically and financially when the two countries' economic development is integrated through this cooperation. The path to a new and brighter future is looking very exciting.

Let's hope that all is well and there would not be another Mahathir or kampong mindset politicians to derail this billion dollar project that could put Malaysia into the mainstream of international trade and finance, as an industrial and financial hub, providing better jobs and life for Malaysians and Singaporeans. Let's hope it would not be another Forest City in the making. Malaysia must plug into the international network of trade and economic activities.

Beware of the Bumiputra 30 per cent being thrown into the pot. Beware of foreign talents and citizens not allowed to work in the SEZ, and the clothings they can wear or cannot wear. Beware of the accusation that Singapore is benefitting more than Malaysia. Beware of the 10 per cent....

Uyghur terrorists trained in Guantanamo Terrorist Camp released to attack China

 Who are these Uyghurs fighting in Syria. None other than the same terrorists that created chaos and terrorized the people in Xinjiang, chased out by the Chinese, taken into the USA terrorist breeding facility, trained, supported and now used in Syria.

What were their motive? Now the cat is out of the bag. From the horse's mouth they announced their intention of trying to create chaos and terrorism in China. Is there a war in China that they are needed to fight over there? If not, why are they targeting China of all countries.

Now, I want to talk about the prisoner swap between Russia and Ukraine. Every time that happens, the first response from those freed prisoners on the Ukraine side first words were mistreatment by the Russians and how they suffered. Honestly, as prisoner of war, do they expect a stay in a five-star hotel with Michelin Star cooks providing meals for them?

Incidentally, I have yet to see the response of freed Russian prisoners of war from Ukraine being interviewed and saying the same thing about mistreatment by the Ukrainians. I am sure they were treated like royalties by the Ukrainians. But Channel New America is not going to provide interviews from those Russian prisoners released by Ukraine, right?

And that begs the question of how prisoners were being treated by the USA in Guantanamo. Certainly nothing royal in my opinion.

Nothing works under Trump or Biden is a reality.

Take the attempt to muscle in on energy supply to Europe by bombing the Nord Stream pipelines. Before the bombing, Trump was already putting sanctions on countries involved in the construction of Nord Stream 2. The Russians did the final touch to the Nord Stream 2 pipeline construction itself and that rattled the USA.

When Biden took over, he tightened the screws further by forcing Olaf Scholz to refrain from opening the Nord Stream 2 for operation. Biden even gloated about putting the pipelines out of operation for good by using any means at his disposal. The USA can deny all it wants about its involvement over the bombing. the fact remains that many countries doing investigation over the bombing declined to name the culprit, which is too revealing a stance.

Why has it turned out that the bombing of the pipeline failed to fulfil the USA agenda? It is obvious that the EU is not depending totally on USA oil and gas, being able to source for cheaper alternatives by buying cheaper energy probably from China, India and Saudi Arabia, which are basically still highly discounted Russian oil switched or mixed with others to musk its origin. That is why Trump is trying to force his hand by threatening the EU with tariffs if they do not buy more oil and gas from the USA. How much more clearly defined can it be with this threat showing that the USA wants to monopolize energy supply to the EU all along. Think about it.
