The hypocritical western countries!
https://sg.news.yahoo.com/ousted-catalan-leader-unlikely-return-spain-testify-lawyer-101157875--business.html
When any Asian state wants to gain independence, the western countries will support in the name of democracy. However, when any western state wants to gain independence, the western countries will denounce and condemn.
This is how hypocritical they are!
They want to support Taiwan, Tibet and HK independence but not Catalan or Scotland independence.

http://thechronicleherald.ca/world/1515934-skorea-china-move-to-resolve-disputes-and-hold-summit-talks
South Korea has made some promises to mend the relationship with China.
Promise 1: SK will not install additional THAAD. SK has 6 THAAD systems currently.
Promise 2: SKwill not allow THAAD radar to extend into China's territory to address China security concern.
Promise 3: SKwill not be part of the USA military alliance and will only conduct joint military exercises with the USA. The original USA's intention was to form a military alliance with Japan and SK to contain China.
SK and China will meet to discuss the promises further during the APEC meeting in Vietnam and officiate them in their bilateral communique.

Singapore condemns New York Terror attack for 8 deaths.
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.
