Coal export to China constitutes 1/3 of North Korea's incomes. Therefore, coal import ban from China will affect North Korea tremendously. North Korea's coals are of high quality because they're non-smoke coals which don't produce smogs.
The next weapon China has is OIL export ban to North Korea. This will crumble NK.

China will ban and boycott LOTTE businesses in China for helping South Korea government to install THAAD system. Good grief! Why is South Korea so adamant in THAAD installation when the system cannot defend against more than 10,000 mobile rockets launchers from North Korea?

USA has no money to repay its debt!
https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/us-treasury-rekindles-interest-rare-century-bond-045924053.html
What do you do when you don't have money to repay or roll over your debt?
Well, you just need to issue much longer dated bonds to roll over your money so that the days of reckoning will come much later.

The Kim who was assassinated in KLIA might not be the real Kim Jong Nam.
There was a Japanese reporter who claimed to be have known Kim Jong Nam for a long time said that Kim Jong Nam had tattoos on his body including his tummy. However, no tattoo was spotted on his tummy on the picture (as shown). Therefore, the deceased man might not be the real Kim Jong Nam according to the Japanese reporter.

DPM Tharman said that the government had enough provision for this decade.

Let's see if this is true by not raising GST in this decade since the government has enough provision.

Bill Gates' suggestion on robot tax won't work!
http://fortune.com/2017/02/18/bill-gates-robot-taxes-automation/
Imposition of robot tax to save any human job won't work because it is a regressive action that will impede productivity. This action will force businesses to choose between human or robot based on cost instead of productivity. Furthermore, businesses will move to other countries without robot tax so that more robots can be used. The fundamental reason businesses adopt automation is to improve productivity and lower production cost. If we impose robot tax to compel businesses to adopt lesser robots, it will defeat the purpose of improving productivity as a human cannot work 24/7. If full automation can increase productivity and lower product cost better than semi-automation with some human labour, why would we want semi-automation unless full automation has a higher robot tax which can lead to higher production cost?

The Chinese in China will boycott South Korea goods if THAAD system is installed because of nationalistic sentiment. We cannot disregard this nationalistic sentiment which is deeply rooted in Chinese culture. South Korea economy will be greatly affected beyond imagination if the Chinese do not buy South Korea goods.

China GDP growth is expected to slow down further in 2017.
http://en.people.cn/n3/2017/0223/c90000-9181860.html
The expected growth rate for China is 6.64% in 2017 which is lower than 6.7% in 2016. Therefore, world economies won't be doing better in 2017 than in 2016 because of lower growth and uncertain USA economic policies.

If France is the first to dump Euro, Euro will definitely crash to the abyss as France is a big country in EU. This will prompt many countries to hoard USD which will cause USD to spike up and create inflation faster than ever.
