What do you get for being a staunch USA supporter? Just look at Taiwan!

Taiwan has been a staunch USA supporter but this only brings harm to its citizens.

Ractopamine is banned in 160 countries because it is harmful to human.

USA and Japan are shoving harmful chemicals into Taiwanese throats without any regard for their safety.  This is what happens if you become a supporter of USA.  USA will only use you as a pawn and disregard your interest even if you are part of its allies.  Japan will also bully you as USA condones it.

Japan approved TPP but USA suspended TPP. What a joke!

TPP was spearheaded by USA and USA was a major partner in TPP.  Without USA, TPP is just a worthless piece of paper.  However, Japan insisted in passing TPP without USA.  This goes to show how helpless is Japan in managing its economy and going against China as TPP excludes China.

US rig count - 568

HOUSTON (AP) -- The number of rigs exploring for oil and natural gas in the U.S. decreased by one this week to 568.
A year ago, 767 rigs were active. Depressed energy prices have sharply curtailed oil and gas exploration.
Houston oilfield services company Baker Hughes Inc. said Friday that 452 rigs sought oil and 115 explored for natural gas this week. One was listed as miscellaneous.
Among major oil- and gas-producing states, Texas gained six rigs and Ohio was up by one.
Alaska and North Dakota each declined by two. New Mexico, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Utah each lost one.
Arkansas, California, Colorado, Kansas, Louisiana, West Virginia and Wyoming were unchanged.
The U.S. rig count peaked at 4,530 in 1981. It bottomed out in May at 404.

Singapore stock calls for 10 November 2016


Please vote on our Malay reserved president poll!

Let's do a survey to find out what Singaporeans think about our Malay reserved president issue.

Our US presidential election poll.


How did the US news media get the presidential election so wrong?

Obviously the news media supported Hillary as her poll rating was higher than trump prior to the election.

However, we can see that US citizens place importance on integrity above all things from this election.  Trump definitely has more integrity than Hillary.

Hillary’s dubious record:
Her wealth buildup was questionable because she used her political position to gain wealth especially from using her Clinton’s foundation.

Her email scandal was questionable but was pardoned by FBI.  I must say FBI was too efficient in her investigation.  I wonder this efficiency is reserved for her only or it is across the board.

Her health was also questionable.


Last but not the least, Hillary has major trust issue in USA as close to 70% of US citizens don’t trust her and see her as a trustworthy person.  Thus, it is not surprising that she lost the election.
