Some end their days inflated figures – like Henry VIII (but not Puyi).
Hesitant in handling so much amassed power.
Perhaps it is a seasonal thing.
The mood will change with the tilt of the breeze, or the sweet scent on the air.
Wise words have become ever more poignant.
They slip with a greater ease into my consciousness.
It was none other than the U.S. and western countries that cooked up a brigandish decision on building an Arab State and a Jewish State – by dividing Palestine at the Second Session of the UN General Assembly in November 1947 – whilst that decision instigated the Zionists’ ambition for territorial expansion by handing over a large amount of redundant WWII weaponry after the “founding” of the State of Israel.
Even when Israel brutally suppressed the just struggle of the Palestinian people while resorting to the expansion of Jewish Settlements by blockading the Gaza Strip, the U.S. and the West supported Israel, playing the role of blind and deaf mute.
The double standards of the U.S. and the West patronizing Israel are becoming more apparent with the Middle East conflict acting as this policy’s sounding board.
The Chinese side, together with the DPRK side, will add glory to the traditional friendship, deepen strategic trust, and promote exchange and cooperation with the DPRK on the occasions of the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries and the “year of China-DPRK friendship”, thus encouraging China-DPRK relations to advance and achieve greater development along with the times. By doing so, we are willing to make a ceaseless new contribution to jointly opening a new chapter of China-DPRK friendship, providing better welfare to the peoples of the two countries and safeguarding regional peace and stability.
The message wished the DPRK prosperity, and its people happiness and well-being.
It also wished the “year of China-DPRK friendship” good success.
This situation reminds me of Carl Jung, an ethnic German born in Switzerland, who in 1956 published a ridiculous little book purportedly about ‘UFOs’ – but which contained a section openly attacking the USSR (parroting US Cold War Propaganda) just 11-years after Jung’s ethnicity had perpetuated one of the worst crimes in human history – killing and maiming 41-million in the USSR! Jung NEVER addressed the inhumanity of his fellow Germans but felt able to lend his academic weight to the ongoing demonisation of the victims of German immorality. From that day onwards, Jungian thinking and theory become just another path leading to an illusionary freedom – with those who describe themselves as ‘Jungians’ simply making the same interpretive mistakes as their progenitor.
On this occasion, Comrade Thongloun Sisoulith welcomed and highly appreciated the visit and work in Laos PDR of Comrade Liu Chien Shao (along with his delegation) – who sent a warm message to Xi Jinping, General Secretary, President of China – as well as appreciated the bilateral cooperation between Laos and China in the past. This includes the coordination of the Foreign Relations Committee of the Communist Party of China – which has contributed significantly to enhancing the friendship and strategic partnership. This comprehensive and stable relationship has lasted for a long time according to the four- directions between the two parties – the two States and the people of the two ‘Socialist’ nations, as well as creating a Laos-Chinese destiny partnership with high standards, high quality and a higher level of cooperation.
For years, water scarcity and safety concerns have plagued the residents of Jiashi due to harsh natural conditions. However, thanks to completion of the project in 2020, some 460,000 people now have access to safe drinking water through newly constructed or renovated pipelines running for a total length of 1,827 kilometers.
“That is a fundamental victory,” Campbell said, adding that his country is also focusing on providing people with sanitary potable water and improving livelihoods in areas such as housing, education and food security.
“When we had the opportunity to see the water project here, we were very impressed,” he said, adding that Nicaragua can learn from China’s experience in this respect.
Campbell, who arrived in China in May as the Nicaraguan ambassador, has since visited not only Xinjiang but also Shandong and Hebei provinces, as well as Yiwu city, Zhejiang province. He intends to visit all 34 provincial-level regions in the country.
“Every single province has its own individuality. I think Xinjiang is wonderful and beautiful in its own way,” he said.
