Email: Greetings From Behind the Sandbags – UK Show – Down with the Far-Right! (10.8.2024)

Well, the far-right have has had its moment in the UK – and it has failed – like an infantry assault that ran-out of inherent momentum, purpose, and point. The British public did not rise-up in support of the fascists – and they are slightly confused by this lack of more general support. The (centre-right) Labour government has imprisoned hundreds (mostly “White”) in quick fashion – but this includes some (Asian) Muslim protestors being arrested whilst opposing the far-right and supporting Palestine. Within the media, I notice more  “people of colour” being presented as hunted criminals who are threats to law and order. The Labour government seems to be attempting to placate what it thinks is the “White” majority – who might be disturbed by supposed non-White crime, etc.

World Insights: China’s Sci-Tech Progress Not to be Hammered by Technology Blockade! (14.10.2022)

Up to now, China has established a sci-tech cooperation relationship with more than 160 countries and regions, and joined more than 200 international organizations and multilateral mechanisms.

Thanks to its greater focus on independent innovation and international cooperation, China moved up to the 11th place in the 2022 Global Innovation Index (GII) and firmly remains the only middle-income economy in the top 30, showed the latest ranking published by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).

“China’s growth (in GII ranking) from 34th ten years ago to 11th (in 2022) … is really spectacular. The close attention paid by the government and the country to innovation as an engine of growth is paying off,” WIPO Director General Daren Tang said at the press launch of GII 2022.

“China nurtures its innovation ecosystem in a holistic, comprehensive manner,” he said.
