Laos Buddhist-Socialist Republic: Celebrating the 58th Anniversary of the Founding of the People’s Political Bureau! (4.5.2023)

The role, duties and performance of the Peacekeeping Political Forces are always linked to the direct, resolute, and comprehensive leadership of the Laos People’s Revolutionary Party, as well as the Party’s Ministries during each phase of the Revolutionary struggle for National Liberation.

Throughout the past 58 years – by following the guidance provided by the Communist Party – a Peace Defense Force has been constructed that has devised a plan to modify the country step by step. This careful process has required the coordinated compliance of the higher political organizations as well as the correct implementation of all political duties assigned by the Party-State and the people, especially the Party-Staff work and the political work carried-out by the Peacekeeping Force. Throughout the past period, the leadership of the General Political Department for Peace Protection during each generation, as well as the entire force of the General Political Department, have raised their respective burdens of responsibilities and stood shoulder to shoulder with other Specialized Military Departments!

Taiwan: US Advices Colony to Celebrate Hitler’s Birthday! (25.4.2023)

Although most ethnic Chinese people in Taiwan know very little about Hitler – the US is deliberately misleading these people with regards to the Swastika – which is a common Buddhist symbol in Asia meaning ‘peace’ and ‘tranquillity’. The Taiwanese are misinformed that Hitler had a good understanding of Asian culture and this is why he made use of the Swastika. Of course, nothing is said about the fact he turned it around and placed it on its side – to denote the states of ‘war’ and ‘fear’ brought about by continuous violence – or that their non-White bodies would be ‘processed’ in the Death Camps! Taiwanese children are being taught by ‘White’ CIA Operatives that Hitler was a good man whose birthday they must remember and celebrate! This is yet another example (from an endless list) of US atrocities which confirm yet again the inherent ‘racism’ and ‘mental illness’ that defines this country!

Hongshan (紅山) Culture (4700-2900 BCE): Ancient China – Transgenderism and Buddhism! (15.4.2023)

The concept of a female goddess in China existed thousands of years prior to the development of Buddhism in India – and yet when the ‘male’ Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva (evoking ‘Compassion’) was transmitted into China from India – ‘he’ morphed into a ‘she’ (becoming locally known as ‘Guanyin’ [觀音] or she who is ‘Attentive to Sound’) – whilst retaining all the Buddhist characteristics. Why did this ‘transgender’ event occur?

Laos Buddhist-Socialist Republic: Ta Bin Hydroelectricity Company – Pak Bang -Donates Vital Supplies to Local Villages! (11.4.2023)

The company realized that a number of people in Champa Village are still very poor – and motivated by Buddhist-Socialist morality – they mobilized all the company’s employees to contribute both materials and resources!

This included clothes, shoes, soccer balls, baskets of food and learning materials such as pens and writing books, etc. On the occasion of the handing over the donations to the village Administration – the person in charge of the company pointed out that the outbreak of the Covid-19 disease has created difficulties for the lives of ordinary people. Seeing this difficulty, the company, which has been investing in Laos for more than 10 years, wanted to contribute to the socio-economic (Socialist) development of Laos society!

China: Manor-Turned Museum Tells Changes of Life in Tibet! (29.3.2023)

Tibet is the first provincial-level region in China to provide 15 years of publicly funded education, from kindergarten all the way up to senior high school. By contrast, there was not a single proper school, and the illiteracy rate among young people exceeded 95 percent in old Tibet.

The changes in Tibet are a vivid epitome of China’s reform and development. Chinese modernization is the only correct choice for building a strong country and advancing national rejuvenation, said Yan Jinhai, head of the regional government, in a speech marking the historical movement that ended serfdom in Tibet 64 years ago.

In the past 10 years, Yan said, Tibet has achieved high-quality development, maintained rapid economic growth, and heavily invested in education, medical care, culture, housing, employment, and social security. Tibet has shaken off absolute poverty and kept on pace with the whole country in building a moderately prosperous society in all respects.

“My wish now is to live longer and enjoy the life I currently have,” Norbu Tsering said.  (Video reporters: Cao Bin, Tenzing Nima Qadhup, Sun Fei; video editors: Miao Zhuang, Mu Xuyao, Hong Yan)

Buddhism: The (1971) Rita Curran Murder – William Richard DeRoos Identified as Killer! (26.3.2023) 

The Vermont Police appear to be attempting to build a ‘racist’ narrative which associates hedonistic drug-taking with the practice of Buddhism. The idea is that ‘drugs’ and ‘Buddhism’ are ‘violent’ and ‘defiant’ of all the norms of Western civilisation – and this is ‘why’ Rita Curran was killed! I would suspect that spaced-out hippies are the least likely of anyone to commit violent crime and that the ‘White’ (conservative) Police are a little confused in their narrative building. If William DeRoos did commit this murder (and the DNA evidence does support this hypothesis) – then he committed this crime because he possesses some type of mental and behavioural ‘illness’ – and not because he chose to align himself with the peaceful and wisdom producing teachings of the Buddha. As for drug-taking – there is no evidence of this at all until much later in his life – the reason for which I would suspect some sort of painful ‘illness’. As always – think for yourself when weighing-up the evidence.
