The project shows a deep-seated respect for the history of Ross and the early settlers, who included the Chinese gold miners of the 1860s, said Lash, who also expressed gratitude to the Chinese community for supporting the project.

“The memorial is dedicated to all those Chinese pioneers before us who made this place their home,” said Steven Wong, president of the New Zealand Chinese History and Culture Association and chairman of the Federation of the Chinese Association of New Zealand.

Wong said his great grandfather came to New Zealand with his brother during the gold mining period in the 1860s, and that his family’s stories reflect the history of the West Coast gold rush in New Zealand, which prompted the creation of Ross Township in 1865.

Neo-Nazi Ukraine: The NOT So Strange Case of Shamil “The White!”! (25.4.2023)

And then we come to the elephant in room (no pun intended). Oddly, contrary to the reasoning of the ‘Track A Nazi Merc’ author – ‘Shamil’ might well be an Indian ‘Aryan’ (Sanskrit for ‘noble’) whilst simultaneously remaining ‘outside’ of the Hitlerite definition of the term (the former is thousands of years old whilst the latter only dates from the 1920s). The term ‘Aryan’ and ‘Arhat’, etc, are ancient Sanskrit and Pali terms found within Hinduism and Buddhism. Thousands of years ago, light-skinned outsiders migrated into North India – displacing the dark-skinned local inhabitants – pushing the toward the South (these people now form the ‘Dravidian’ population). Most of what is today considered ‘Indian’ culture derives from the ‘integration’ of these two bodies of cultural distinctiveness (including the ‘colour-based’ Caste-system which was supposedly ‘abolished’ in 1947 – but continues unabated to this day)

U.S. banking turmoil is not over yet, and it’s expected that a large-scale restructuring would take place in the U.S. banking sector, said Tianyang Wang, associate professor in the Department of Finance and Real Estate at Colorado State University.Many medium-sized and small banks won’t survive the loss of deposits and some of them have to be acquired by big banks at low prices, said Wang during a recent webinar.U.S. banks are paying more to hold on to deposits, setting aside more reserves for potential loan losses in the event of a potential recession, and are now more focused on building capital rather than returning it to shareholders in the form of dividends and buybacks, said a research note by Swiss banking giant UBS.The highly anticipated Q1 results from U.S. banks did not raise any new red flags about stresses in the banking system, largely putting to rest concerns about systemic risks, said the UBS.The UBS said it remains least preferred on financials stocks and continues to expect guidance and estimates to trend lower in the coming quarters as deposit pricing issues become more apparent and as the economy weakens.

China: Ministry Condemns US ‘Repression’ Allegations! (28.4 .2023)

28/04/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

China consistently adheres to the principle of noninterference in internal affairs and strictly abides by international law, respecting the judicial sovereignty of all nations.

In contrast, the U.S. consistently abuses extraterritorial and long-arm jurisdiction to interfere in other countries’ internal affairs.

“Who is the ‘world police,’ and whose law enforcement personnel engage in various forms of interference and repression worldwide? The world can clearly see that the label of ‘transnational repression’ is most appropriate for the U.S. itself,” the statement said.

The ministry urged U.S. law enforcement to immediately stop these accusations and judicial prosecutions against Chinese officials and to recognize the serious harm caused by this frivolous litigation.

The ministry demands that the U.S. immediately take measures to eliminate the negative impact of its actions and cease any other provocative and confrontational behavior, returning to normal law enforcement cooperation as soon as possible.

If the U.S. continues going down the wrong path, China will undoubtedly take firm and resolute countermeasures, the ministry said.

China: UK has No sovereignty, Jurisdiction or Right of “supervision” Over Hong Kong! (27.4.2023)

Xinjiang enjoys economic development, social stability, religious harmony and cultural prosperity and people there lead a happy life, she said. “These are facts for all to see, yet the UK side chooses to be oblivious to this and has deliberately smeared and slandered China. The status quo of the Taiwan Strait is that both sides of the Strait belong to one and the same China.”

She pointed out that the biggest threat to peace in the Taiwan Strait comes from the “Taiwan independence” separatist activities and the US connivance at and support for them. If the UK side wants sustained peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, it needs to strictly abide by the one-China principle and stand firmly against the “Taiwan independence” separatist activities.

“I want to reiterate that the Taiwan question and issues concerning Hong Kong and Xinjiang are purely China’s internal affairs which brook no external interference. We urge the UK to be prudent in its words and actions, stop making groundless accusations against China and interfering in China’s internal affairs, and do more things that are conducive to the development of China-UK relations and world peace and stability,” she said.

Iran: Court Orders US to Pay $312.95 milllion in Compensation for 2017 Tehran “Terror” Attacks! (27.4.2023)

27/04/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

The court found that the U.S. government, certain entities, and officials were responsible for supporting and assisting the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group, which carried out the attacks.

The compensation includes 9.95 million U.S. dollars for material damages, 104 million U.S. dollars for moral damages, and 199 million U.S. dollars in punitive damages.

The court found that the “suspects” were accountable for the terrorist attacks in Tehran because there was proof that the U.S. government and officials played a significant role in organizing and guiding terrorist groups, including the IS.

This evidence included reliable news and information published by U.S. media, as well as books and speeches by U.S. officials that showed the Central Intelligence Agency’s role in creating these terrorist groups, such as the IS, according to the Mizan news agency.

At least 13 people were killed and 43 others injured in the twin attacks in Tehran on June 7, 2017, for which the IS claimed responsibility. Six gunmen were involved in the attacks and all of them were killed in the operations.
