The Other Side of Chinese Growth - Ghost Cities


I remember when I visited China,Guangzhou the city have 2 major spot.Where I stay during my business trip is a 5 star Mayor hotel which oversee the huge Olympic stadium standing majestically where I can't even believe my eyes that China have this kind of high profile building.The place I stayed which is a few kilometer away from Guangzhou Industrial area is a new modern town by itself.A Jusco shopping complex,Mc Donald and some recognizable outlet which really fascinating.I did not even imagine that China had grown to this standard with modern infrastructure.The second spot is down town old Guangzhou with original China style town which I like the most.Typical old China town with a lot of traditional still intact.They even made noodles by hand on the same spot.That really something interesting to see.

I did not aspect this kind of culture change shock in China where I still think the same old style of living.I had a chance to visit one of my working colleges apartment which I can only say outstanding.Of cause not to mention on those are really poor.All the gadgets in the world are on my friend possession and until today I still keep in touch with him through mail and Face book.He use to update what is the latest gadget he is having and to my surprise he have almost 15 hand phone as a collection and Ipad..? Well this you can get it cheap in China with China made of cause.

The cost of killing Gaddafi

 
 
By Shenali Waduge 
 
In 2009 Libya was a friend to the US so much so that Libya allowed several US corporate giants to enter & approval was given for training of Libyan security personnel & civilians. These were the civilians that eventually became rebels given arms by the West to overthrow Gaddafi in a movement called liberating Libya .Arming locals has become a new strategy to avoid deaths to coalition forces while NATO is tasked to take on the indiscriminate air strikes. So what has been the cost for killing a man who has ruled a nation for 42 years without debt to the IMF or the World Bank? It took 8 months for US-NATO to take over Libya, the pro-US Libyan Government may celebrate & rejoice but that celebration is as short-lived as the jubilations in Iraq & Egypt where the people are beginning to realize their country would have still been better off with Saddam Hussein & Hosni Mubarak! 

Bagaimana Tekanan Jiwa Membunuh Anda

 
Dalam satu kajian, larva pepatung diletakkan di dalam akuarium di mana ia dapat mengesan kehadiran pemangsa yang berada di persekitaran tersebut. Sebenarnya pemangsa tidak dapat mengapa-apakan larva pepatung itu kerana ada halangan yang diletakkan. Satu lagi kumpulan larva pepatung diletakkan di kawasan yang tidak ada pemangsa.

Kajian mendapati larva yang berada di kawasan pemangsa adalah di antara 2.5 hingga 4.3 kali ganda lebih berkemungkinan untuk mati daripada larva yang tidak mengahdapi tekanan untuk di makan.

Tribute to "Smokin" Joe (1944 - 2011)


                                                              Joe Frazier
I like world heavyweight boxing and I started to like this during my teenager time where the "Black Superman" Muhammad Ali rules the boxing world.And at the same period of time another boxer Joe Frazier a former heavyweight was ruling before his Fight Of The Century with Ali which Frazer lost.He battled Ali nearly to the death in the Thrilla in Manila.

That was one fight Frazier never could win."He once was a heavyweight champion,and a great one at that" commented Ali when Frazier knocked him down in the 15th round en route to becoming the first man to beat him (Ali) at Madison Square Garden in March 1971.
