http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/singapore-strongly-condemns-new-york-terror-attack-mfa-9365098
Singapore is quick to condemn New York Terror attack for 8 deaths but not for Somalia terror attack with more than 358 deaths. The Somalia terror attack is more severe than NY attack.
A life is a life be it black or white. We must be fair and impartial to all races.

Strange light ball appeared in Russian Sky after Putin tested Satan 2.
http://siberiantimes.com/other/others/news/reports-of-spectacular-ufo-signaled-by-a-giant-glowing-ball-lighting-the-sky-in-northern-siberia/
The Russian government tried to brush it off as the trail of the Satan 2 launch but missiles experts claimed that they had not seen such missile trail before. Therefore, this is definitely an abnormal light ball which cannot be explained.

UFO hit an airliner full of NBA players recently.
Therefore, what could have hit the airliner at 30,000 feet without leaving any traces behind?

What a joke! Catalonian leaders are on the run after gaining independence.
https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/catalan-separatists-seeking-refuge-belgium-090000868.html
The Catalonian leaders shouldn't have pushed for independence since they knew the consequence of the outcome. These leaders left Catalan in the lurch after gaining independence and ran away for their own personal safety. The independence has created ramifications for the society and strained relationships in many families because of different political views.
Calatan is a divisive state now because of irresponsible and irrational leaders.

USA has forsaken the Kurds!
https://www.clevelandjewishnews.com/jns/iraqi-kurds-feel-abandoned-by-the-us-as-israel-offers/article_1d433c52-5303-5215-812c-35d2e1290426.html
The Kurds had been staunch supporters of USA actions in the Middle East for over a decade and always responded to the USA's calls for any battles in the Middle East.
However, the USA abandoned the Kurds for its own political interest after using them. The Kurds thought that the USA would support and protect them after the independence referendum because the Kurds fought with their lives in the Middle East alongside the USA.
The USA has been known to be an untrustworthy and unreliable ally but the Kurds take a big leap of faith in the USA and they're suffering the repercussion of this belief. The USA only cares for its own interests and does not care about others. The Kurds have learnt this the hard way with the losses of their lives.

China can produce flexible display screens now. Samsung is in trouble!
http://en.people.cn/n3/2017/1030/c90000-9286440.html
China has acquired the technology to mass produce flexible display screens which will give Samsung a run for its money. The prices of AMOLE display will decrease which will benefit consumers but Samsung will take a hit for its AMOLE revenues.
China will definitely ramp up its AMOLE display production to crush Samsung's monopoly.

Is SGX being too optimistic or naive in wanting the world's largest IPO?
https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/sgx-chief-keeps-eyes-winning-223900206.html
I doubt we can get this Aramco IPO and the CEO is showing his naivety because SGX doesn't have the size and liquidity of other big stock exchanges like NYSE, HKEX and LSE. Low liquidity is often associated with a low valuation.
When Alibaba didn't even want to list on SGX, the world's largest IPO won't come to SGX too. Furthermore, SGX has been losing some big market capitalization companies.
When the top management doesn't know the capital markets well enough, SGX won't be able to go too far in this industry.

Hot news! Catalonia has declared independence!
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/gold-steady-dollar-gains-versus-012826415.html
Catalonia has declared independence and is officially separated from Spain now. Spain's economy will drop by 20% immediately after the separation. Spain is definitely weaker now than before and this phenomenon may spread to other European countries by encouraging other states to obtain autonomy or independence.
Europe may get ramified and become weaker.

ECB will cut bond purchases to $30B in Jan 2018.

Singapore will be issuing its own cryptocurrency after Russia.

Just like Russia, Singapore will be issuing its own cryptocurrency which cannot be mined by others.
The demise of bitcoin is coming sooner than thought as ordinary people will move over to the official cryptocurrency, leaving the criminals to use bitcoins.

The USA is doomed to fail in its Asia pivot or rebalancing strategy.
It’s getting harder for the USA to implement the Asia pivot or rebalance strategy now compared to a decade ago.
Why?
This is because China has helped Asian countries to boost their economies and made them prosper with better economic integrations with China. Consequently, China has become the top trading partner of many Asian countries and China is importing a lot of Asian goods. This is something the USA cannot do because the USA wants to export goods and services to Asia.
It will be difficult for the USA to grow its influences in Asia nowadays because the USA cannot replace China’s importance in Asia now. Furthermore, China is building many infrastructures under the BRI in Asia whereas the USA cannot afford to build anything for Asia. Although the USA has been embarking on smearing and fear-mongering campaigns against China, it has been unsuccessful to persuade Asian countries to contain China’s influences.
Asians are mostly peace-loving people except for North Korea, Japan and Vietnam. Therefore, most Asians just want to lead a peaceful and prosperous life which China is promoting.
The USA had been proclaiming the excessive China's claims in South China Sea but it was the USA navy that accompanied China to reclaim those islands in South China Sea after WW2.
China's 9 dashes for South China Sea had been around since 1947. Up till now, about 70 years later, the USA or its supporters cannot cite any incident of China navy or coast guard stopping any commercial vessel from sailing in South China Sea. Therefore, there is no basis for freedom of navigation because there is already freedom of navigation in South China Sea. The evidence is definitely in China's favour. If we just look at the evidence, we know who the troublemaker (USA) is in Asia.
We strive to be objective but we just cannot find a shred of evidence to support the USA's allegation and claim. As we conduct more researches, we find the USA more despicable.
