China: The West is a Chinese colony. But this will collapse

China: The West is a Chinese colony. But this will collapse The communists celebrate, because Beijing’s great economic progress forces Europe and the U.S. to act as if they were its colonies. But they do not understand that without reform of the economic system - and especially if they fail to insert democracy within their domestic politics - they will not ... Washington - The so-called China model is designed to treat the developed countries as a new type of colony and use them for commodity dumping. This statement will make many "patriotic" angry Chinese youths feel triumphant: now here comes the revenge, we are a sovereign state able to dominate them as colonies. Ever since the anti-imperialist cultural and political movement of May 4, 1919, the propaganda by the Chinese intellectuals that was distorting history and inciting hate is still poisoning the minds of many. However, the dreams of a fool's paradise by these angry youths are not as great as they seem.

Although the developed countries have become dumping grounds like colonies, the newly emerging industrialized countries have not become sovereign states ruling over these developed countries. The reason is because people's incomes in China and other newly emerging industrialized countries have not significantly improved, and their domestic markets, infrastructure and technological levels are not increasing simultaneously. Instead, the markets are flooded with low-quality goods. The quality levels have been declining globally. This is the era that one can make a lot of money without advancing science and technology, or improving quality. What one needs to do instead is to maintain a low human rights standard among the laborers, rather than a high-tech advantage. The global politics under the control of global capital are all at work to maintain this "advantage" of a low labor rights standard. The people in the newly emerging industrialized countries have much less income than those of the "colonized" markets, along with even lower human rights and even lower consumption. They are even less than these people in the colonies. They are the slaves for the colonies.

So who is the exploiter, who has the sovereign rights over the colony markets? The answer is: transnational capital. Nowadays, the capitalists do not oppose the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The CCP is capitalist itself.

Implementation fiasco in anti-smoking act | Nepal Mountain News

Recently enforced the Tobacco Control and Regulation Act-2068, which had came into effect from Sunday, has raised a concern in the society with the suspicion that it would not come into proper implementation.

The act has invited numerous doubts over the proper implementations.

The government has declared about the law without pinpointing the enforcement agencies. It would have envisaged that District Administration Office (DAO) is the government agencies to enforce the law but none of the state agencies even the DAO are informed to implement the law. Interestingly, the health Ministry has not any mechanism to monitor the implementation aspect of the law. If the government is really serious to implement the law rather than limiting it on the paper, it must clear the looming confusion over the implementing agencies with enhancing the capacities of the concerned agencies.

As per the provision of the law, everybody will be responsible to ban smoking in public places. Interesting part of the law is that it has also provisioned even to checking sales in the market places. If anybody ignores the act and smoke in public places like public offices, educational institutions and others public places the government can slap a fine ranging from Rs 100 to Rs 100,000. However, Nepal is not new to enforce the law as most of the developed countries and even some developing nations of South Asia have also already exercised the same act. Despite being the moral responsibility of the every individual to abide by the act, there are looming suspicions that it would not come into proper implementation as it was declared without making sufficient grounds. There is obvious that not only the smoking but also the consuming tobacco and alcohols and others injurious habits should be prohibited from the country. Abiding the law, which are directly associated to the people and the nation, should not be taken as the merely respect to the law and the government. If the government became success to implement the act and the people become supportive to implementation the law, it will not only be proved as the benefit for the individuals but also to the country at large. Nevertheless, people are already informed about the smoking and its implication in the health rather than the recently enforced law ant its provisions. So, the government must take strong initiatives to implement the law.
