Crisis Around the World -War/Health/Weather/Economy/Society
-
global economies in stagnation, nothing much to innovate. Stagnation is worse than recession.
Inflation, high interest rates, lesser buying power, weak demand.
Post covid pandemic era from past 3 years (2020, 2021, 2022),
war in Ukraine resulting in food & energy crisis,
surging inflation,
debt tightening,
shortage of food worldwide, disruption in supply chain distribution, global warming issues.

Yup. 3 only out of 6 applications. No idea who the other 2 are, but we hv at least 2 presentable candidates. Yday, there was a sly comment that one will step down if GG qualifies. I wld like to see if he does really put in action where his mouth is. GG wld be better than a sly fox.

GG wld str-away be what ppl see as independent candidate. However, we at least hv 2 who u’stand the critical importance of our national reserves & the need to protect it fr being swayed to turn that key at will. These 3 have good disposition to Grace the world stage as head of state. -

Yes, I saw his comment that he would not submit his nomination if GG qualifies. I guess he now has to go ahead.

GG's spoken Eng is too weak.
The tennis lover's beau is actually from a powerful & influential family from HK as well as China, if you trace her maternal roots back to the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong eras when her ancestor 张廷玉 was cabinet aide to the 3 emperors. She has been smeared by Chinese netizens on FB as 嫩草 because they do not know much about her \"tatler\" background. Maternal great granddad was a famous calligrapher who knew Zhou Enlai. Maternal granddad, a former Flying Tiger pilot of the Nationalist Army, owns Wheelock. He is also the \"godfather\" of many Greater China celebs.

Think this man will withdraw if GG qualifies so he won’t loose ano deposit. He can be very calculative based on what I see in the way he manages his life. Anyway, we hv to go submit poll. My relative leaving for Melbourne tmr & she’s happy she can vote via post.

Interesting for GG. I just see him for the value of his own. Agree with you his spoken English is weak. His disposition is OK lah, not uncouth or ah cek. But he’s very focused wor. Now he’s got to go visit his daughter in UK as invited if he don’t qualify. Think it must be very disappointing after preparing for last 5-6 years.
Didn’t know CIO hv such ‘backing’. Haha! Interesting character. 2 times lucky to hv supporter fr privileged bkgrd to walk by his side.
Does the other candidates prepare for these many years? Definitely not the 2 unknown candidates, but doubt these other 3 prepare even 3 years. -
Now like easier to choose?

I like how this EP thing falls under \"Crisis Around the World\". -
This thread is like a catch all for everything we wanna complain about that’s wrong with the world :censored:
