General who warned about ‘accidental’ war with Russia gets replaced. Admiral Sir Tony Radakin (second from left) took over as Chief of Defence Staff on November 30, 2021
“Carter was originally supposed to retire in June, but Prime Minister Boris Johnson asked him to stay in the post for a few more months. In what turned out to be one of his last interviews, he told CNN in mid-November he feared an accidental conflict with Russia now more than back during the Cold War era.
“’And I think we are now into a period where it’s more multi-polar, and I think in a multi-polar world with people competing for different objectives and on different agendas, there’s a greater risk of tension leading to the sorts of things that we are talking about,’ he said.”
Why does US make a fuss about ‘rules-based international order’? 30/10/2021 | Source: Pyongyang Times
Today, the international society strongly denounces the founding of the US-led “AUKUS” and the US decision on transferring the technology of building nuclear-powered submarine to Australia as a “military bloc based on the logic of Cold War” and an “irresponsible act posing danger of nuclear proliferation and triggering the arms race”.
The founding of “AUKUS” under the pretext of establishing the “rules-based international order” and the attempt at transfer of even the nuclear technology are a concentrated expression of the double-dealing and Janus-like policy of the US.
It is a well-known fact that the US has long deployed its nuclear assets all over the world to threaten and blackmail the countries of its dislike with nuclear weapons, in utter breach of international agreements and order.
Especially, the US has grown ever more brazen in recent years in its double-dealing and self-conceited acts of violating the universally accepted international order in the Asia-Pacific region where the strategic interests of several countries are inextricably intertwined.
Despite this fact, the US talks quite often about “rules-based international order”, posing as if it alone is “faithful” to the international agreements and order and has authority to “supervise” them.
However, everybody knows like the back of his hand the true intention of the US catchphrase: “rules-based international order.”
No goodliness would come out of a place rife with chaos.
Having no scruple about withdrawing from an international organization when it does not suit its taste and even reducing overnight the international disarmament treaty directly related to world peace and security to a mere scrap paper – this is the true nature of the US-advocated “rules-based international order.”
In other words, the “rules” that the US is making a fuss about are not the “rules” of impartiality, objectivity and universality but those of the “US style” which serve the American values to the core, and the US favorite phrase of “international order” is the one necessary for maintaining the US’ hegemony as it is a far cry from world peace and security.
The US uses the American-style gangster-like logic and argument that its nuclear threat to other countries is “for keeping the international order” and that other countries’ exercise of the right to self-defence to cope with the US military threat is a “breach of the international order”. This is the height of application of double standards.
The overall international society is criticizing this, commenting that “American-style double standards are a vivid expression of American-style hegemony”, the US is “a global hex” and “the US is the biggest troublemaker in terms of global stability”.
Recently, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry stressed that the founding of the “AUKUS” is an attempt to fabricate the US-centered rules and order in the region and defend the leading position of the US as well as its system of hegemony.
The overall fact gives a positive proof that peace and security in the region and the rest of the world are becoming much more unstable owing to the self-opinionated and hypocritical acts of high-handedness and arbitrariness perpetrated by the US around the world.
Peace is the common desire of mankind.
The international community should squarely see the reactionary nature of “rules-based international order” advertised by the US and no longer tolerate high-handedness and arbitrariness of the US that totally destroys and tramples on peace and security in the region and the rest of the world.
Video: A racist nation that demonize Chinese, Chinese Americans and China everyday flooded with guns murdered Zheng outside U of Chicago grad Shao Xiong ‘Dennis’ Zheng remembered for ‘extraordinary impact’ at memorial. https://vimeo.com/652005305 https://youtu.be/NTahqwHtEx0 https://www.facebook.com/100036400039778/posts/613478843208778/?d=n “I went abroad for the first time in my life not to attend your graduation ceremony, let alone your wedding celebration, but to attend your funeral,” she [his mother] said. “You said you wanted to take me to see the world. You wanted me to witness your dreams. You wanted us to look forward to the future together.”…
“I am going to bring you home”.
Zheng’s parents came from China for the service. Zheng was the couple’s only child.
Zheng’s mother’s remarks were translated for ABC7 by the Chinese American Service League:
My dearest son, I carried all my tears, all my longingness for you and all my sadness, and traveled all the way and finally arrived at the University of Chicago, where you chased your dream. This is the first time that your mom ever traveled outside of China. But this is not for sightseeing, not for attending your graduation, and not for your wedding, but for your funeral, what a cruel tragedy!
I can still vividly see the joy on your face the day you started out on your journey. You told me that you are going to show me the world in the future. You wanted me to witness your dream come true and you wanted us to look forward to the future. However, look at what happened now, we are separated by heaven and earth. I have desperately been trying to call you by your name again and again. Son, tell me why when I just begin to see hope I was thrown into hell a moment.
My poor son, when the evil bullet hit your young chest, when you were lying with blood all over your body on a foreign soil, you must felt so helpless in that cold street. Helplessness, hopelessness and anger must have filled in your heart. You were only 24 years old! Your dream of science, your dream of astronomy, your dream of math and your dream of love, all of those were shattered at that moment. You and your longingness for life, your love for your family, and your care for your fellow students, all disappeared entirely from my life with that murder’s bullet.
Partners in crime? Experts baffled by video showing San Francisco police apparently watching a cannabis dispensary north of the Panhandle in San Francisco as burglary unfolds & did nothing! 30+ years ago, I was told by some friends if you leave for long trips, let your local police station knows. Later I found out all the people informed the police department were the first ones got burglarized. So much for the rules of laws in the United States. Apparently, the SFPD are letting these robberies happen because they want to discredit and bring down the DA Chesa Boudine, who has promised to go after corrupt cops.
The 2021 International Seminar on Peace in Asia and the Role of Women was held in Seoul, South Korea, on Nov. 25 2021

Background: This year’s international seminar, held in-person and virtually, was a continuation of the May 1991 conference Peace in Asia and the Role of Women. The first meeting in Tokyo brought together women leaders from South Korea, North Korea, and Japan. The second meeting took place on Nov. 25, 1991, in Seoul, and 15 women representatives from North Korea crossed the DMZ to attend the meeting. In September 1992, 30 women representatives from South Korea went to Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea. In April 1993, they had their fourth meeting back in Tokyo.
Then in early 2000, representatives from South and North Korea and Japan actively participated in the Women’s International War Crimes Tribunal on Japan’s Military Sexual Slavery held in Tokyo. The International Organizing Committee, chaired by representatives from South Korea, Japan, and the Philippines, drafted the Charter of the Women’s International War Crimes Tribunal 2000 for the Trial of Japanese Military Sexual Slavery.
This was also the same year that South Korean President Kim Dae-Jung and North Korean leader Kim Jun-Il met in Pyongyang from June 13 to June 15. It was the first inter-Korean summit since the Korean War ended in 1953. On June 15, they adopted the June 15th North-South Joint Declaration seeking peace in the Korean peninsula.
In October of that year, in response to persistent advocacy from women’s rights groups and civil society, the UN Security Council adopted the landmark Resolution 1325 on women, peace, and security. This resolution calls for women’s equal participation in all UN peace and security efforts.
The peace movement continued in 2002, when 357 women representatives in South Korea, 300 women representatives in North Korea, and 20 overseas women representatives met at Mt. Kumgang in North Korea to participate in a joint event called Women, Power of Peace.
From Feb. 12–13, 2019, eight women representatives from South Korea, five from North Korea, and three from overseas again met at Mt. Kumgang. As one of the follow-up actions from this meeting, organizations from North and South Korea, along with overseas organizations, issued the Joint Statement Calling for Resolution of the Issue of Japanese Military Sexual Slavery from the Women of North and South Korea, and those Standing in Solidarity to Commemorate the Centenary of the March 1st Movement, which ran as an ad in The Washington Post on March 1, 2019, to commemorate the centenary of the March 1st Movement.
ESJF, one of the co-signers of this joint statement, helped translate the statement.
This year, eleven peace-seeking NGOs—from South Korea, the U.S., Japan, China, and Canada—co-hosted the 30th anniversary of the Women Leading Peace movement on the exact date that the North Korean women leaders crossed the DMZ to attend the second Peace in Asia and the Role of Women conference held in Seoul.
Recalling the commitments of UN Security Council Resolution 1325, they agreed to carry it out actively in Asia through various channels, including establishing a consulting body for women’s peace and security as well as addressing the climate crisis in Asia. They also voiced the necessity of including the North Korean women to this platform.
Why China so successfully fighting COVID19 when Western nations failed so miserably?
Many people are being misled, covered up with fake news or through ignorance of personal human rights and others, that they didn’t analyse that what China did during its lockdown there was no single vaccine used, only strictly wearing of mask and discipline oneself by obeying SOP. No one died after its lockdown was lifted after around 4 months duration.
This critical procedure was what China followed **Dr Wu Lien Teh’s method in controlling pneumonic plague which occured at the end of 1910 to 1911, with 3 to 4 months in controlling this most deadly killer virus disease, without a single shot of any foreign made vaccine.
No vaccine was used. Only facial mask, not so well made like in today’s productions, but with well quarantined and strictly obedience in personal hygiene on SOP.
How about today with so many brands of foreign made vaccines and with modern qualified medical bodies the situation of controlling the COVID 19 is out of control ? It’s like “too many cooks spoil the soup”
In the end, no vaccine is able to defeat COVID 19 variant, Omicron.
Too many “Brains against no brain”
**Wu Lien-teh, was a Malayan physician renowned for his work in public health, particularly the Manchurian plague of 1910–11. He is the inventor of the Wu mask, which is the forerunner of today’s N95 respirator. Wu was the first medical student of Chinese descent to study at the University of Cambridge.
Michael Loh: I remember Dr Wu Lian Teh. I remember seeing his photo was prominently displayed in the main conference room of the Institute of Medical Research (IMR) of Malaysia of all the past Directors of the IMR, way back in 1989 when I was then a junior officer in the Ministry of Health of Malaysia. But he never got to be a Director of the IMR in the then British administered Malaya. Although he was not of the past directors, his photo was displayed there because he was a researcher at the IMR, who was internationally recognized as a renowned plaque fighter. He was the Queen Scholarship holder from Malaya for the year 1896. He was also known as Dr Goh Lean Tuck in Hokkien (Minnan).
Covid-19 lockdowns in the early stage of the coronavirus pandemic led to sizeable unintended health benefits in China, according to analysis by Chinese researchers In findings published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature on Monday, the team said lockdowns might have prevented an estimated 347,000 deaths in the first seven months of last year in the country, with about 60 per cent the lives saved from cardiovascular diseases. The study was conducted by researchers from the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, including its director George Gao Fu; Peking University; Hong Kong University of Science and Technology; and the University of Hong Kong.
Joe Biden’s invitation list for the Summit of Democracies reveals that it is not what it says on the label at all, but a childish attempt to use party invitations to polarize the world. The world’s wealthiest country wants others to gang up against Asians, Africans and Middle Easterners. 喬•拜登(Joe Biden) 的民主峰會邀請名單顯示,這根本不是標籤上寫的內容,而是幼稚的企圖利用政黨邀請來分化世界。 世界上最富有的國家希望其他人聯合起來反對亞洲人、非洲人和中東人.
Professor Anming Hu: “darkest days in his life”. He was singled out like 1,000s of Chinese Americans simply because he is Chinese. Any Chinese in the field of STEM will continue to be attacked, jailed or harrase. 1,000s already left US and 1,000s more will follow!
