Empowering Women in Venezuela!

Venezuela: Celebrating the Rights of Women Across the World! (31.12.2025)

🔸 My special greeting to the women of Venezuela, from the powerful Josefa Joaquina Sánchez Movement.

🔸 This school has to train the #Liderazgo of women, who are the majority leaders in the people. We are going to train them for transformative action.

🔸 It’s a miracle what we have experienced since 2021 with #Mujeres who used their creativity; that has already been consolidated.

🔸 We have 2,800,000 women incorporated into the great Movement of Movements. A good advance in 28,000 of the 49,000 Communal Councils, but we are heading there!

🔸 What a joy that this school has its epicentre in the state of Aragua, a land of liberators where big dreams are born.

🔸 I propose that it be the women who lead the ‘Admirable Challenge – Forever! (RA-2026). The challenge of 2026.’

BBC Sinks the Titanic Yet Again!

UK: How the BBC Sank the Titanic for a Second Time – and Still Managed to Omit the Chinese! (30.12.2025)

The BBC recently tried to seduce the licence-fee paying public with a four-part mini-series regarding the sinking of the Titanic. Two so-called “experts” were ex-military – one had been wounded in the illegal war in Afghanistan and the other surveyed the sinking of a Royal Navy ship during the Falklands War – whilst a third was described as a “Psychologist of Disaster”  – a YouTube qualification if ever I have heard of one. Dodgy qualifications aside (the ex-military “experts” did not possess the objectivity of thought to even cognise the falsehood of te causes they killed others in the name of) but most the facts were as false as the narratives being established. There was the usual ahistorical presentation of the make-up of today’s UK being projected into the past – where it did not exist. The Titanic was made to look like a present-day mini-UK – as if this is normal in the past, present, and future.

PRC Embassy Protests Demolition of “Panama-China Friendship Park”!

This monument declaring “China-Panama Friendship” is situated on a mountain over-looking the Panama Canal (in fact, from what I have read regarding travelogues, this mountain it is quite remote and difficult to access) – and Trump believes this symbolises a Chinese declaration of “control” of the Canal. The Park was built in 2004 by funds raised by various overseas Chinese organisations – with support from the Mainland Chinese government (which provided two stone lions). Chinese people first arrived in Panama in 1854 (during the Qing Dynasty – probably fleeing the highly destructive Taiping Uprising and the Hakka-Punti Clan Wars). Indeed, this park is officially termed the “150th Anniversary Monument to the Arrival of Chinese in Panama” (1854-2004). Ironically, Panama declared (also in 2004) that “March 30th” would be “Chinese People Day” (华人日 – Hua Ren Ri). The way things are going, I suspect “Chinese People Day” will soon be abolished. I have been agitating for years that China should stop using US English in its translations – the language of the enemy.

Traditional Judo Self-defence

UK: Is Goju Ryu Karate-Do Linked to the Chinese Book of Change? (29.12.2025)

Indeed, those scholars who developed the Commentarial material that seeks to explain the Book of Change (Yijing) – often attempt to superimpose the ancient “hard” and “soft” with the concept of “yang” and “yin” – although the amorphous nature of this schematic means that one quantity is continuously exchanged for the other. When lecturing in China – this often becomes an interesting and contentious point of discussion. Many are unaware that the yin-yang ideal is not that old as it is presented as all conquering in many Chinese-language texts. Whatever the case, I keep in contact with a number of Goju Ryu practitioners – as this is a style of fighting I explored in my youth. I still assist practitioners of this style with their historical research – which is often of a linguistic nature. Linked above is a blog article uploaded onto our Ch’an Dao Blog.
