You will never be able to live a fulfilling life contributing to the greater society & to fearlessly stand by your conscience “If you engage every known/unknown person who slings mud or works hard to destroy you/your work”. Having said that Churchill’s quote never gets old! 😊

SoftBank Group plans to make $50 billion of investments in Malaysia, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said Saturday, adding that Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son had identified locations in Kuching, Sarawak and peninsular Malaysia for the planned investments, following a video conference between the two earlier in the week.
The country’s prime minister said the planned investments would focus on artificial intelligence, new technologies and data centers, coming as Malaysia seeks to become an “AI nation” by 2030: cnb.cx/3WMOmhV

Des images que vous ne verrez pas à la télévision : à Paris et dans toute la France, des dizaines de milliers de personnes manifestent pacifiquement.
Quand la foule n’est pas nassée, gazée et violentée, tout se passe bien.
Ne vous laissez pas berner par le cadrage médiatique des chaînes d’information en continu qui préfèrent les feux de poubelles aux revendications légitimes des Français.

I’m French. 🇫🇷
And I’m tired of watching people confuse freedom with the freedom to destroy.
You have the right to protest.
You have the right to be angry.
You have the right to demand change.
You do NOT have the right to burn, loot or attack people.
A Republic that protects the right to protest must also protect its citizens from violence.
That’s not authoritarianism.
That’s the rule of law.

TESLA ROADSTER JUST TURNED SCIENCE FICTION INTO REALITY! 🚀
Drives upside down. Flies through the air. Accelerates like a rocket.
⭕ Tesla has finally unveiled its next-generation Roadster in Texas, demonstrating a car that drives upside down on a ramp, launches into the air, flips itself upright and lands using SpaceX-developed thrusters.
⭕ Tesla showcased a recorded acceleration run of just 0.81 seconds. It also claims a top speed of over 230 mph (370 km/h), with a proposed driving range of around 300 miles (483 km).
⭕ Powerful suction fans underneath the vehicle actively pull it towards the pavement, creating enormous downforce. Tesla claims the system can deliver up to 2 g of cornering force, allowing the Roadster to achieve extraordinary grip.
⭕ Beyond the spectacular demonstration, however, serious doubts remain over the Roadster's roadworthiness and safety. Whether a vehicle with such extreme capabilities could ever meet road safety standards, let alone obtain regulatory approval for use on public roads, is highly questionable. Whether it will actually reach customers remains to be seen.

youtu.be/tCgsI-Qajho?si=Y8C0… @Porsche unveiled this before today’s @Tesla roadster launch! A super car battle commenced! Porsche is placing the new mission S above its flagship icon 911. A new mid engine powertrain beautifully designed with Porsche DNA.

The PM 2.5 reading in Singapore has reached dangerous levels.
The problem with ASEAN is that it’s a feel-good talk-shop based on consensus. And the fundamental underpinning of ASEAN consensus is ‘saving face’.
Such diplomacy cannot work in the face of existential emergencies.
Singapore and Malaysia need to join forces and publicly pressure Indonesia on the world stage. Aggressive diplomacy is needed. Not saving face.
Take this to the UN now and ask for an emergency resolution.
If nothing else , it may shame the Indonesian government and make it lose popular support domestically.
