What is a threat? Who is the threat? Who is the greatest threat to the world?

Who is a threat, what is a threat? This concept of threat is a trade mark of American hegemony. The Americans have been declaring this country and that country as a threat to them. Can anyone visualise how little countries or poor farmers in Afghanistan or some poor country be a threat to the biggest and most powerful Empire in history? Can North Korea or Iran really be a threat to the Americans even if they have a handful of nuclear weapons? Would they dare to use them knowing that the return fire from the American nuclear arsenal would cook every one of their citizens alive and their countries turned into Stone Age?

The Americans have been using this term, threat, as a convenient tool to demonise a country and set it up for attacks and persecution, trade and economic sanctions and invasion.  When the Americans declared a country as a threat, the poor country be very frighten, as the Americans are going to attack them in one way of another. They would be very lucky if it is just trade and economic sanctions. They would not die in an invasion, killed by bombs, but allowed to continue to live in poverty, cut from from the world in trade and economic activities. Most  of the time this threat is an outright American lie, an American mischief to do evil, to start wars, to kill as and when they like it.

So far only the Americans are telling the world who and who is a threat to the American Empire, using the western media to spread this evil edict. No country would dare to tell the world that the Americans are a threat to them. But the whole world knows that the Americans are the most evil, fearsome and deadly threat to countries that did not obey the Emperor in the White House and would be destroyed or diminished. 

While the Americans are lying to the world that small and weak countries are a threat to the Americans, an American myth, a white lie that no one believes, every country knows that the real threat to them and to the world is the evil American Empire. It is a case of an Emperor without clothes but no one dares to utter aloud that the Emperor is naked.

Once again, who is the greatest threat to the world, to world peace? No answers, but the answer is obvious. The evil Americans. America's security is the world's insecurity. They are using the security threat to threaten and control and dominate the world.

Once again, is there any smaller countries that is a threat to the American security? The answer, from the Americans, they would be bombed to the Stone Age in minutes. Is that a good answer?

China seen through westerners' eyes

Below are video clips of a few westerners that have or are living in China and telling the world what China is today as contrast to the untruths and lies that the western media are telling the world. Among them they have made numerous videos about China on their own, a passion, just like the bloggers in mysingaporenews, to help people understand China. And just like many bloggers that are publishing alternative truths, Matthew Galat has come under attacks by the IBs, in this case likely to be CIA operatives in China, publishing anti China videos to smear and demonise China.

Malaysia - Political intrique within intrique

 Azmin Ali spilled the beans. The mastermind was Mahathir, the victim was Anwar. Again Anwar was played out by Mahathir and his hope of becoming the PM of Malaysia grows dimmer. 

In the latest report in the ST, Azmin said Perikatan Nasional PN was Mahathir's idea, a scheme hatched in Mahathir's house on 23 Feb. Presence were the heads of Umno, PKR, Parti Pribumi Bersatu, Parti Warisan of Sabah, PAS and Gabungan Parti Sarawak. Azmin was then deputy President of PKR. Notably absent was PKR's president Anwar Ibrahim, the man they were fixing not to become the PM of Malaysia.  The purpose of the meeting was to ensure Mahathir continue to be the PM.

The proposal was presented to the King with 131 statutory declarations in support of Mahathir, who needed only 112 to have the majority in Parliament. The plot was more intriquing with the suggestion that they would remove Mahathir later and replaced him by a Umno candidate. But Mahathir the wily fox saw through the bigger scheme of thingsand resigned as PM, throwing everyone off guard.

Mahathir had denied his involvement in this scheme and claiming that he would honour his words to let Anwar to take over from him as the next PM. His words must be music to Anwar's ears.

Who is telling the truth, who to trust, are becoming more ridiculous by the day. But whatever happened, poor Anwar would forever be the victim and the PM in waiting with so many playing against him behind his back.

Would Anwar ever be the next PM of Malaysia? With so many interested parties involved and with so many eyeing for the job and plotting against Anwar, it is going to take a miracle for Anwar to get himself into the PM office.

Malaysian politics is so complex with so many players that no one can really predict what is going to happen tomorrow. And the mastermind is still weaving his spider web of plots withing plots to want to be the PM the third time, or is it the fourth time, and making sure Anwar will never get there.

Anwar has a big mountain to climb over if he is ever to be the PM and he would need a lot of political skill to do that. Maybe after Mahathir has passed away.

China's security umbrella

 

This map shows how far reaching are China's missiles today, covering a large part of Europe, Middle East, the Indian Ocean, South East Asia and western Pacific Ocean.  This is only about the coverage of DF21 and DF 26 and shorter range missiles that can carry nuclear and none nuclear warheads. The likes of DF41 and DF5 have ranges that covered the whole world, every corner is within reach of China's missiles.

What are the implications of this map and the Chinese missiles? On the defensive mode, all Chinese shippings are covered by these missile umbrellas. The Chinese ships, merchant fleets, fishing fleets or PLAN ships may be sailing individually, presumbably alone and unprotected, but no longer. They are protected by this missile umbrellas. When under attacks, the Chinese ships can call for fire support and the missiles will come flying to strike at the attackers be they warships, aircraft carriers of military bases. An extention of this defensive mode can be applied to friends of China, or countries that are being bullied by the evil American Empire. Such countries can ask China for help if the want to and also come under China's protective security umbrella against an attack by foreign forces.

The second part is the offensive capability of the Chinese missiles. How far they can cover is equivalent to how far they can hit. All the American warships, including aircraft carriers, all the Indian warships and enemy ships flirting in the South China Sea and East China Sea will become targets of Chinese missiles. China can now check American aggression against countries within this security umbrella when shove comes to push, China can intervene militarily, not necessary to have military bases and boots on the ground or aircraft carriers in the war zone.

The Americans may still brag and boast about sailing their warships into South China Sea or Straits of Taiwan or even Malacca Strait as a show of force against China, but they too know that a press of the button is all that is needed to send a missile coming after them.  China has recently demonstrated that they could easily hit moving targets, ie ships in the oceans, to send notice to the Americans that the missiles are waiting for them and don't be mischievous or adventurous. All the American fleets in the Indian and western Pacific Oceans look pretty and aggressive and threatening.  But what is more threatening are the missiles deep inside China, thousands of km away, waiting to strike.

Silly and idiotic smaller powers like the junior partners of 5 eyes pact must take note that their museum pieces called warships are now at the mercy of Chinese missiles. Strutting along in the South China Sea is now at the mercy of China, whether to push the button or not.

In the event of a war, Chinese soldiers would sit in the comfort of their war rooms and simply press buttons, like playing computer games. No need to move their butts, while the Americans or enemy in their ships in the oceans and seas would become sitting ducks waiting to be sunk or scurry for shelter and protection. It is as simple as that. This is the new war game, no soldiers in sight, but missiles will come flying in under the guidance of satellites and other observation radars on land and on seas.

The Americans still thinking they are safe in the Indian and western Pacific Oceans and strutting around like gangsters waiting to start wars with Iran or China or Middle Eastern countries and have all the initiatives of wars. Think carefully. The enemy missiles are faraway, behind mountains, in the deserts and in the seas, not within visual sightings, but just as deadly and destructive, especially shooting at sitting ducks.

This is the new balance of power in the Indian and western Pacific Oceans. Once the Americans could sail these seas and oceans with impunity, with no one able to hit them. No more. Not safe any more, but easy targets to be taken out by enemy missiles thousands of miles away. Iran and North Korea are also protected by the Chinese missile umbrella and so would be Pakistan and other Middle Eastern countries that requested for it. The American bully and warmonger no longer can have their way as they like it in the past. If they try to clobber anyone, they too can be clobbered.

Don't be cocky any more, trigger happy cowboys. When you point your guns at others, the Chinese missiles are also pointing at you...from afar, from the sky above and the seas below.

China could not do this until quite recently and had taken a few blows below the belt delivered by the Americans.  China learnt the bitter and painful lessons and vowed to be able to strike back should it happen again. It is so ludicrous to see silly Americans sailing their warships along the Straits of Taiwan and South China Sea to threaten China, a show of force and oblivious to all the missiles locking onto them, that they could turn into smokes any moment.

The battle order has changed, who can hit who has changed, who has the upper hand has changed. Who is a really threatening who has also changed.

Singapore: Independence Or Stooge?

 1984 George Orwell said... Singapore: Independence Or Stooge?

Singapore was a British colony for a substantially long time. So much so, all the leaders (from 1G to 4G) looked/look up to the White Men for their security and existence. Never dare to offend the White House, Westminster and the White Expats, even until today. No leaders want to talk about this. No one wants to admit it. However, this is a fact. This is truth.

Singapore assumed it was "GIVEN independence" but actually it has always been a STOOGE Of the British Empire. Nobody gives you independence on a silver platter without strings attached. What went on in the various negotiations behind closed doors are not made known in full to the masses, who have been called dafts, stupid and unable to decide on matters of state.

Old habits die hard. Once you have slept with a skunk in the same bed, you soon get used to its smell until you can't smell it at all. So, you just continue to sleep with the skunks as a matter of normality. It's like sleeping with someone who snores.

Now, it is trying very hard to gain the FAVOUR of the President of the United Snakes of America, whoever sits in the White men's, Whiter than White, White House in Washington DC, in order to become a STOOGE again. Unable to punch above its own weight. Pitifully pathetic.

BUT this time round, the state of a STOOGE is not going to be so easily acquired. It is going to be snooked and back-stabbed by the scoundrelous White Supremacists from Washington DC.

And it is also going to be strangled by the Rising Power from Beijing, economically.

Either way, there is no more tight rope to balance, unlike before, when China was weak. This time around, there is only one slippery rope with a noose just long enough for the STOOGE to hang himself, either way.

The wind of change has blown. The tide has changed. Time has changed. The The Dragon has woken up and arisen. The Continued Rise of the Dragon is Inevitable. Its dominating existence is going to be felt and counted. The wise knows what to do.

Only fools remain staunchly fixated by the poisonous breathe and mesmerised by evil eye of the White Medusa.

Once one is caught by the gaze of the Evil White Medusa, there is no way one can escape. Unless, one has the courage to refuse to look her in the eye. That means one has to make use of a mirror in order to look at her indirectly and avoid her direct evil gaze. Otherwise, one will simply turn into stone.

Do Singapore leaders have that mirror in them?

If not, then Singapore shall forever be a STOOGE of the EVIL Whitemen's Empire.

It's not too late to change course to a brave new world. Blue or red, just simply stop taking the pill.

Lakshmi Vilas Bank - Is DBS in hot soup with new Indian High Court ruling?

 SSO said... As predicted and expected, DBS has got itself into hot soup territory.

Read this:


It was reported that the Indian High Court in Madras passed an interim order last Fri (27 Nov), proceeding to protect the interests of the Lakshmi Vilas Bank (LVB) shareholders.

The Indian government has earlier announced to merge the loss-making LVB with DBS India.

It has also allowed the entire amount of the paid-up share capital of LVB to be written off. That is to say, LVB’s equity will go down to zero and the original shareholders of LVB will get nothing.

Following this announcement, LVB shareholders filed a petition to the High Court in Madras demanding compensations.

In its interim order, the Madras High Court directed DBS that no further prejudicial action should be taken against the LVB shareholders and asked DBS to furnish an undertaking to compensate LVB shareholders in case the Court rules so at a later stage.


The High Court further directed DBS to create a separate reserve fund in its books of account to the extent of the face value of shares of the transferor company (LVB) and maintain the same subject to further orders from the Court.

“…completely reducing the shares is not an exercise which has happened in the public domain and the shareholders do not appear to be aware of the exact reasons why this is so,” the Court observed.

Further, the court added that even if the authorities have the power to reduce the share value during an amalgamation under Section 45 of the Banking Regulation Act, reducing it to zero or negative, prima facie, it cannot be done without very compelling reasons.

Major shareholders in LVB include Indiabulls Housing Finance (4.99 per cent), Prolific Finvest Private Ltd (3.36 percent), Srei Infrastructure Finance (3.34 percent), MN Dastur and Co Pvt Ltd (1.89 percent), Capri Global Holdings Pvt Ltd (1.82 percent), Capri Global Advisory Services (2 percent), Boyance Infrastructure Pvt Ltd (1.36 percent) and Trinity Alternative Investment Managers (1.61 percent).

As of 27 Nov, LVB ceased to exist and have become part of DBS India. LVB was founded in 1926 by a group of businessmen in Tamil Nadu. The bank rose to prominence lending to small businesses.

But the fall came quick after it aggressively shifted from retail to wholesale loans, resulting in a lot of bad loans.


The next hearing is likely to be held on January 5 next year.


Comments:

It is like Robin Hood of the Sherwood Forest. Robbing the rich to give to the poor.

Robin Hood tells the Rich Man, known as the Damned Boaster of Sinaplenty:

"You must give me an undertaking that you will put sufficient money at your home, enough to compensate all the poor in my village, in case I come tomorrow to rob you. Is that clear?"

No nation state in Asia and SE Asia except China and Japan when white men ruled the world

Up till the end of WW2 in 1945 there were no nation state to talk about in Asia except for China that was broken up and semi colonised, and an imperial Japan modelled after the aggressive western empires. Immediately post WW2, only China was left as Japan became an American protectorate or in other words a semi colony till today. All the rest of Asia and Africa, and the Americas were conquered and swallowed up by the expansionist white supremacist European powers.

Africa was colonised and divided up by the European Empires but many silly Africans and Asians still want to believe they are friendly and very nice people. So were Latin America and North America. There was no India, no Pakistan or Bangladesh, no Sri Lanka, no Myanmar, no Indonesia, no Philippines, no Malaysia, no Vietnam, Laos or Cambodia but French Indochina. Thailand was in a peculiar situation, independent but not. All these new nation states were colonies of the white men. They came, they saw, they conquered, they killed and they ruled and they looted practically the whole of Asia, Africa and the Americas....to build a rich Europe, European renaissance on the loot and blood, sweat and tears of their slaves, called subjects of the Empires. Everything belonged to the white men, land and resources and the Asians and Africans and the natives of the Americas. Remember that, you were once owned by the white men, your land also belonged to them.

Any silly Asian countries still thinking so highly, passionately and lovingly of their colonial masters, the white men that invaded and conquered and ruled them as the subjects of their empires, not independent nation states, no rights as citizens but subjects aka slaves? White men nice, yes, after they killed and robbed the wealth of your country and threw a few pieces of crumbs to the subservient local elites that were beholden to the white men for their well being at the expense of the local populace.

India is proposing to invite the white men and the most vicious and barbaric Asian colonial master, Japan, to form a Quad, a 4 member grouping to rule the Indian and Pacific Ocean region under a new regime called Pax Indo Pacifica. But before India got too swell headed, with or without India, the Americans are already proposing to create a new naval force to rule the region as their private pond, the First Fleet in the likes of the Seventh Fleet. They will sail their warships around the region, possibly setting up a permanent military base in one of the crony countries in the region. The Americans even said that with or without a permanent military base in the region, they could still form this new aircraft carrier based naval force to rule over the countries in the region, that they are the new imperial power, the new colonial master. And America's top white dog, Australia, would tag along as if it is a big white powerful country in SE Asia, to be the master of the region as a member of the American naval fleet.

When this happens, should this happen, the nation states in the region would be nation states only in name and not much different from the colonies of pre WW2 era, at best be semi colonies like present day Japan and South Korea. Did anyone ask or invite the white men here to balance China? No need to, the Americans do not need to be invited. They have invited themselves here with no need for the consent of the countries in the region. They do not even need to consult any of the countries in the region. They are the hegemon, the Empire. Take note of that if you are still dull.

The Americans or the white men are coming. They are the new masters of the Indo Pacific region. They have the guns and the warships and no one can say no to them. Would anyone be thinking of asking or inviting the Chinese to come in to balance this white men's dominance and control of the region? No need, ex colonies are in love with their ex colonial masters and love to be ruled by the white men. And the Americans know that the silly Asean countries wanted to be ruled by white masters too. That was why they sent oily and sneaky Pompeo to come visiting. And they are coming. Yes, the First Fleet of aircraft carriers, warships and marines will take over control of the Indo Pacific region. Would India be part of this First Fleet? India is salivating with the thought of being part of the new Empire in the region. Unfortunately the First Fleet is likely to be an all American naval force just like the Third Fleet and Six Fleet in the Middle East.  India may be disappointed if left out.

Asean countries should prepare to celebrate and welcome the new colonial masters, the American First Fleet, into the region. Now where would the HQ be based? Who would be the eager beaver to open their legs?

And there will be no independent nation states in SE Asia to talk about when the new American Imperial Forces move in.  They are here to protect the weak Asean countries from China.  Asean countries would become the protectorates of the American Empire, safe and sound....just like Japan and South Korea and also the native Americans, very well protected.

Neo colonialism/imperialism in another form. The unthinking would not know what is happening. The Americans are so nice to come here to protect them, just like the gangsters walking in to take over an area.

PS. Standard American textbook procedure to control a region or country is to create a threat and in the name of protecting the region or country from the threat, moves in and become the master of the region or country. The threat is to serve that purpose, to lull and dull the natives into thinking there was a threat and forgot about the real threat, the American hegemon, the evil Empire.

When the 'friendly and very nice' white men come, be afraid, be very afraid.
