Major parts of the collected beggars were fake and professional, the official told the state-owned media outlet, and saying the police after investigation have allocated a monthly allowance to the needy one and referred the professional beggars to the concerned entities for further investigation.

The Afghan caretaker government, according to the official, is committed to fighting the culture of begging as part of efforts to keep the society clean.

Life of the Buddha!

Laos: Buddhist Temple – “Golden Ground of Ram” [ວັດໃໝ່ ສຸວັນນະພູມາຣາມ – Wat Mai Suvanna Bhumi Ram]

Laos is a Socialist (Marxist-Leninist) State. Religious freedom is guaranteed as a private matter (through the separation of Temple and State) whilst Theravada Buddhism is the tradition religion of the people. Therefore, Laos may be considered a Buddhist-Socialist State – as the Buddhist Masters advocate Socialism and Dhamma in equal measure. In English, this old temple should be literally known as the “New Temple” – due to its relatively recent repair (just over 200-years) – by Royal Command. As to the Pali name – it translates as “Golden Ground of Ram” – “Ram” is an avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu. Throughout Southeast Asia and beyond, ancient Brahmanism spread far and wide from India – before the rise and spread of Buddhism. By the time Buddhism arrived in the region – Brahmanism was already in-place – with the Buddha being associated with Vishnu (even in modern India – many contemporary Hindus count the Buddha as an incarnation of Vishnu [Ram] sent to earth to encourage vegetarianism).

China: Xinjiang Vows to Fight Against US Sanctions! (20.1.2025)

The mutual visits resulted in the signing of several economic and trade cooperation agreements, and imports and exports to the five Central Asian countries accounted for 67.9 percent of the region’s total trade last year.

In addition, as a result of many trips by delegations of foreign politicians, diplomats, reporters, scholars and entrepreneurs to Xinjiang, and a series of international symposiums in the autonomous region, international society has gained a better understanding of the real Xinjiang, Erkin Tuniyaz, the chairman, said.

“The region has also shown the world that it’s confident about further opening-up and having more friends and partners,” he said.

Meanwhile, the region has continued to improve its law-based routine counterterrorism and stability maintenance system. By taking firm legal measures to crack down on and prevent the activities of separatists, religious extremists and terrorists, Xinjiang is determined to resolutely nip the risks of violent terrorism in the bud and keep terrorist threats outside its borders, the chairman said.

Mao Zedong - West is a Paper Tiger!

UK: The Coming Western War On China! (10.12.2024)

As for the war on the ground – the PRC will deploy a number of surprises on the battlefield. This will lead to a number of set-backs for the West in the initial phases of the conflict. South Korea and Taiwan will be taken early. The question is how the Collective West will respond to this perceived affront to its hegemonic control of Asia. There might be an exchange of nuclear weapons – either locally or internationally. The West might allow this anti-China war to carry-on for decades – so as to reduce unemployment and stimulate the economy. The idea will be to drastically reduce the Chinese population worldwide – and invade and colonise entire swathes of what was once a united “China”. The Chinese population must be drastically reduced to limit the Chinese Armed Forces – and remove the Chinese intellectuals that have driven China’s dramatic development sice 1949. China’s policy of trying to cosying-up to the US is a massive ideological mistake. The US (and the West it controls) has no respect for the Chinese people and would rather see China – as an independent nation – come to an end. Can a modern China inflict a meaningful military defeat upon the Collective West? Well, even in 1950, after just seven months in power, the Communist Party of China inflicted humiliating defeats on a US-led Western military force in Korea. Anything is possible today – and modern China might well have a few surprising cards up it sleeves.

Kazakh Language Sources: 1996 India Mid-Air Collision – What Really Happened? (1.11.2024)

The US employs an all-embracing anti-Socialist trope (disseminated through through media, entertainment and academia) which asserts that all Socialist science and technology, despite its obvious superiority to its capitalist opponent, is DEFICIENT, backward, regressive, and even dangerous. A Canadian documentary entitled “May Day: Air Disaster – The Worst Mid-Air Collison in the History of Aviation” [S7-E4 Site Unseen 11.11.2009] – features the 1996 collision between a Saudi Air and Air Kazakh Airliner [I have seen two figures for casualties given in the literature, namely “349” and “351” – both with equal confidence. This may be due to a small number of local Indian people dying on the ground). This is an exercise in anti-Soviet propaganda from start to finish. This programme is obviously scripted by US ideologues, and it was a relatively simple task to expose this attempt at lying (as it lies within the remit of one of my academic functions, namely that of correcting and exposing fake US-derived narratives regarding Socialist history).

Buddhist Swastika

China: How to Read the Buddhist “卍” (Swastika) Symbol Currectly! (17.10.2024)

Empress Wu Zetian (武则天) of the Tang Dynasty was attracted to Buddhism very much and often invited Ch’an Masters to the palace to explain Buddhist Sutras to her. It was under the promotion of Wu Zetian that Huayan (华严) Sect became a major Buddhist school during the Tang Dynasty.

At that time, there was still no consensus on the pronunciation of “卍” within Buddhism. Some people insisted that it should be pronounced as “万” (Wan4) or “The Ten Thousand Thing” – but others opposed this interpretation – and believed it should be pronounced as “万”(mo2) or “Scorpion” – referring to an Oracle Bone Inscription which refers to a non-Chinese primitive tribe (during the Shang Dynasty) that worshipped the “Scorpion” whilst mimicking its movements in a ritualistic dance (perhaps implying the “foreignness” of India).
