China plans to cut oil demand by 10% in 2020.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-biofuels/china-sets-2020-target-for-nationwide-ethanol-use-to-cut-corn-stocks-idUSKCN1BO03R

China will impose ethanol use to reduce oil demand in 2020.  This will definitely impact the oil and corn prices in the future.  However, this will be a good news for the environment.

North Korea has fired another missile today.

Japan and South Korea do not dare to intercept the NK missile with THAAD and SM-3 missile systems.

Why?

This is because intercepting the NK missile is a lose-lose situation.

If the interception fails, this will bring shame to the USA and nobody will trust the USA defence system anymore.  If it succeeds, the NK will be angry and do more nuclear testing.

Therefore, Japan and SK can only watch the NK missile launch without doing anything.

Iphone X, Iphone 8 and Iphone 8 plus have no WOW factor anymore!

Are you disappointed in the latest Iphones?

All the features on the latest Iphones have already been implemented on other brands.  Facial recognition, big screen and wireless charging on Samsung and other China brands.

The only WOW factor is the price.

Please vote on our poll to indicate your interest for the latest Iphones.

South Korea has slapped its own face by admitting that SM-3 is better than THAAD.

http://en.people.cn/n3/2017/0913/c90000-9268579.html

If SK understood that SM-3 had better performance than THAAD, then it shouldn't install THAAD in the first place and irked China & Russia.

Why did SK install SM-3 after THAAD? It's pretty obvious that THAAD was useless against NK because the motive for THAAD was to help the USA to monitor China & Russia using the THAAD radar.

USA debt has crossed USD$20t!

http://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-how-the-us-got-to-20-trillion-in-debt-2017-03-30

Fighting wars, big tax cuts and economic stimulus packages have all added to the debt burden

Raising the debt limit is the only way out for the USA in December 2017.  If not, the government has to shut down in December as there's no money to be spent anymore.

How will the government get the money for its spending? Look like printing money is the only way out for Trump as he wants to implement fiscal spending to boost the economy but still want tax cuts simultaneously. Increasing the money supply will definitely devalue the currency.  OK, we have the outcome for the USD in the future now.

Wow! China will be researching on quantum navigation system for its submarines.

U.N. approves watered-down new sanctions against North Korea.

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-north-korea-sanctions-20170911-story.html

The USA had relented. Either the sanctions won't get passed or only the watered-down sanctions would be approved.  The USA couldn't do anything without getting approval from China in the UN.

We're right to say that the USA won't get what it wanted in the UN vote.

Halimah Yacob has become the most controversial president in Singapore.

https://sg.news.yahoo.com/pe-2017-pec-decision-halimah-yacobs-eligibility-sparks-notmypresident-hashtag-143620822.html

This is the first time that Singaporeans took to the media to voice their dissatisfactions about our "elected" president.  She will be the first president that doesn't command the respect of Singaporeans.

China has pledged to ban petrol and diesel cars in the future.

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/business/china-studying-when-to-ban-sales-of-traditional-fuel-cars--xinhua-9202160

China is joining Germany and UK to ban petrol & diesel cars in the future.  When more countries embark on this route, there'll be lesser demand for oil.  Therefore, oil prices will crash in the future and those oil producing nations will be in serious troubles because their main incomes will be badly affected.

Great jobs to these countries for saving our planet!

No presidential election in Singapore!

We will end our poll as there is no presidential election this year.  It's a walk over as there is only 1 qualified candidate.

The truth is finally out for THAAD system.

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/america-apos-apos-thaad-apos-052300437.html

THAAD system is useless against the North Korean's missiles but the South Korea installed it due to immense pressure from the USA.  The true intention to have the THAAD system in SK is to use the radar to monitor China & Russia.

We had stated previously that THAAD was useless against NK.

http://sg-stock.blogspot.sg/2016/08/economic-crisis-is-developing-in-south.html

SK will definitely need to pay a heavy price for having THAAD.

The power of hurricane Irma.

You wouldn't believe it.  Hurricane Irma was so powerful that it could suck up ocean leaving behind a dry sea bed.

Where did all the water go to?  There you go!
