Hong Kong – National Security Law

Hong Kong – National Security Law
Padmini Arhant
China Communist Party ( CCP) implementation of National Security law in Hong Kong is counterproductive and detrimental to China though Beijing defends the action as an important measure towards protection and stability in the once autonomous peaceful Hong Kong.
The foreign media projects National Security law in Hong Kong as the end of Hong Kong.
Whereas the reality is Beijing’s hard line policy aimed at severe crack down on pro-democracy movement forcing them to abandon freedom and democracy aspirations with participants expected to face life imprisonment in the infamous black jail in mainland China or disappearance into oblivion actually hurt China more than Hong Kong’s democracy campaign.
The real question should be;
Is it the beginning of the end of China’s rise to economic power with the execution of National Security Law in Hong Kong?
That is precisely where Beijing is heading in turning the tide towards itself upsetting the applecart reflected in Beijing’s broken promise on respecting and honoring Hong Kong’s autonomy in One country two systems pledge on June 30th, 1997 assuring Hong Kong citizens and international community with Beijing’s pledge to leave Hong Kong’s political, economic and judicial independence intact.
However, Beijing miscalculating ramifications in many fronts starting with economy, political and critically international relations is the imminent setback despite fifty three nations, the majority of whom are financially indebted to China in the Belt and Road initiative and One Silk Road infrastructure and economic deals binding them to Beijing’s any proposal.
At the same time, Beijing also need to recognize that remaining nearly 150 countries in the world either not in agreement or necessarily approve the latest development in Hong Kong. The response is confirmed in their abstinence and absence from the list of 53 states support to Beijing on National Security law in Hong Kong.
When two thirds world population represented by their governments are standing by Hong Kong’s youth and other age group in their struggle for democracy, civil rights, individual freedom and complete independence,
China is isolating itself from the world in imposing laws that are against human rights and democratic principles obviously never holding any value as far as Beijing’s territorial annexations and exerting authority on sovereign states and autonomous regions are concerned with China much to loose than gain in tightening the grip on Hong Kong and encroachment on neighbors’ border and territory.
Instead Beijing prioritizing economic revival and containing internal problems within communist politburo as well as nationwide in China is the only option to crises management unlike multi-faceted military activities pursuing hegemonic goals in South and South East Asia including political control over Hong Kong exacerbating China’s status quo.
Hong Kong’s younger generation pro-democracy quest is legitimate inalienable right that could no longer be denied or suppressed by local or external authority in and outside the island state.
The citizens’ individual rights and civil liberty are non-negotiable. The decision to seize Hong Kong’s autonomy by force and armed intervention endanger position of those authorizing such violence and undemocratic means to extend unlawful carte blanche assertion.
The road to peace and emancipation may be treacherous but those determined to reach destination never fail in their resolve especially when Hong Kong’s pro-democracy non-violent civil disobedience is a positive freedom loving endeavor preparing to sacrifice their life for present and future dignified existence in society.
Hong Kong pro-democracy rights deserve acknowledgment and affirmation with global solidarity behind brave young hearts and minds wanting to be free and independent in their domain without having to fear authorities exercising unbridled exertion of rule such as the controversial national security law.
Beijing’s withdrawal and repeal of recent maneuvers in diverse frontiers would demonstrate China’s sincerity towards peace and security that in return deliver progress and prosperity.
Thank you.

India China Stand Off at LAC in Ladakh

India China Stand Off at LAC in Ladakh
Padmini Arhant
The conventional wisdom recognize that in politics and warfare, TRUTH is the first casualty and remains so to suit authorities’ convenience.
The recent casualties suffered on both sides neither disclosed the incident actual date though Indian media and government decided on June 15th in synchrony with foreign press and diktat contrary to the unfortunate event happening way earlier. Similarly the victims statistics were also not reported accurately with 20 soldiers martyrdom acknowledged when there were at least 32 martyrs on Indian side as revealed on this site back on June 5th, 2020 beckoning attention.
As such politics and media having no credibility whatsoever, the deliberate omission is least surprising. The press touted as fourth column in Indian Constitution granting freedom to press and media in the hope of the news organizations and media house exercising autonomy in transparency engaged in the reverse role protecting political establishment and others from whom media house monetarily benefit while keeping the public in the dark or misinformed on all issues of people and national interest.
Furthermore, news outlets and media serving as internal and external forces’ major propaganda machinery targeting individuals like me with constant slander and slur ad hominem to satisfy ego and contempt is the norm. Notwithstanding the practice diminishing ethical standards and journalism to lowest ebb.
On the other hand, China’s state agency and spokespersons released haphazard statements on their fatalities in utter dismissal of armed forces deployment in inhospitable terrain paying dear price due to China’s Communist Party (CCP) and People Liberation Army (PLA) wanton aggression utilizing military activities to deflect domestic focus away from myriad challenges within country.
There is always more to it than meets the eye in matter concerning life and death of citizens like in the latest pandemic and defense personnel in war zones that continues to fall short on accountability among politics and media exerting control over information.
Confronting truth and reality is the litmus test on leadership demanding courage and integrity to accept responsibility on failures to safeguard lives with proactive and precautionary measures rather than converting others misfortune and tragedies to political advantage and commercial gains prevalent in politics and news media.
The consolidated contrived action to discredit truth in the report on 32 Indian soldiers casualties and chinese armed regiment deaths published on this site far ahead of national and international concurrence is routine.
In light of concerted effort among national and international clique to invalidate factual presentations on this site and sub domain highlighted above, let here be no more redactions and discount in reporting facts and figures related to wars of any nature – the tense border standoff in the Himalayan region between India and China or the pandemic consuming lives and affecting thousands paralyzing life and economy much to national and global colossal damage.
Thank you.

China – Investment and Economic Policy

China – Investment and Economic Policy
Padmini Arhant
China’s investment and economic policy worldwide in overt and covert Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and New Silk Road projects in 70 or more countries incentivized with building and modernizing infrastructure such as roads in strategic points facilitating China’s troops mobility and military installations, railways, airports and telecommunication sector besides exclusive access to these nations’ markets is Beijing’s direct economic infiltration evolving into debt entrapment for every one of these nations world over.
China’s strategic strengthening in locations central to United States is noteworthy.
In Asia-Pacific, Darwin port in Australia leased for 99 years to China. In October 2015, the Chinese–owned Landbridge Group won the bid for 99 years lease of Port Darwin from Australia’s Central Territory government. Darwin served as military base from Australia, the important ally of United States.
Similarly, the State of Victoria in Australia is signatory to China’s Belt and Road Initiative complicating Australian federal authority’s ongoing trade disputes with Beijing.
In the middle east, China’s approach with yet another United States ally and partner in economic, political and hegemonic goals, none other than Israel granting China 99 years lease on Haifa Port replace United States position in West Asia and Mediterranean sea.
Europe – Germany – The Western State of North Rhine-Westphalia or NRW, is the most severely affected in the pandemic, the deadly corona virus from Wuhan, China. Over a third of all Germany’s cases are there per local news report.
Furthermore, “The State is home to the largest inland Port in the world, Duisburg Port. The Port is a key participant in the Chinese regime’s Belt & Road Initiative, China’s state-backed campaign for global dominance.”
The City’s Mayor once called it Germany’s “China City.”
The public data reveals that at least two-thirds of the world’s top 50 container ports are owned by the Chinese or supported by Chinese investments, up from roughly 20% a decade ago. Those investments include terminals at major U.S. container ports in Los Angeles and Seattle – Oct 22, 2019.
These reports confirming China’s foreign and economic policy reining control over crucial strategic sea ports and destinations could no longer be treated as mere economic interests.
China’s expansionism pose greater challenge to United States and the world at large.
China’s latest maneuver in the Himalayas against India and instigating client state Pakistan along side Kashmir border is a political tactic to deflect global attention from the pandemic – the corona virus COVID19 consuming lives at an alarming rate and causing economic collapse to which Beijing is responsible and accountable to the entire world population.
Containing China:
The resignation among political and economy pundits on turning the wheels away from China in economic activities as non-starter and not doable citing China’s export orientation towards raw materials in agriculture and all consumer items, pharma ingredients, electronics parts and components and diverse product base comprising basic to intermediate goods necessary for final product is myopic ignoring the big picture that led to status quo on China’s economic and military superiority.
What the world need to recognize is prior to China’s emergence as global manufacturing hub roughly three decades ago, there were options available to global consumers with goods manufactured locally as well as in different parts of the world and regions that enabled market economy competitiveness without dealing with currency fluctuations rather manipulation imposed by China in renminbi (China’s currency) devaluation as and when suitable in China’s favor.
China luring foreign investments appropriately offshore companies production units and factories with Chinese investments in infrastructure settings and human capital showing little or no concern to labor and environment laws created dependency on Chinese imports world over.
China’s consistent infringement on intellectual property rights and patent laws costing corporations and original providers in the economies immense financial liabilities bear no consequences to China resuming business as usual. The ethical implications and proprietary rights are considered meaningless and completely slighted by China in the absence of strong measures and actions from international consortium and governments prioritizing trade deals lagging in many aspects that has contributed to an established pattern and bad precedence in the global economy.
The multinational companies along with big, medium and small businesses are incentivized with cheap oveurheads including production and labor costs making the affordability factor enticing to end consumer across the globe.
Notwithstanding the grim reality on domestic workforce losing blue collar jobs and manufacturing sector to China. As a result, the employment opportunities shifted to China depleting domestic consumer power.
The economic drive from China promoting Made in China goods and services available worldwide hurt all economies regardless of GDP growth and consumer price index due to overwhelming majority in middle and lower income category in any economy deprived of steady income and economic development in the disproportionate advantage to China.
China exploiting privileges such as World Trade Organization membership, Most favored nation (MFN) status with United States, EU and other nations not reciprocated on even keel to nations having minimal to broad trade relations with China.
The trade imbalances with China yielding high deficits to trading partners in the global economy merit review and revision delivering fair and equal economic benefits unlike the current trend enhancing China’s economic gains and profitability.
China’s perceived economic transformation attracting overseas companies to produce goods with partial or major Chinese financial capital that are invariably tied to Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is in line with Beijing’s political stance on CCP control over system.
Chinese private sector investments within China and abroad are ultimately state owned assets proved in nationalization of foreign companies production units, brands and ideas neutralizing foreign investors’ stake in the bargain.
The topic will resume with updates on containing China.
Thank you.

India and China – Alter Ego Authoritarians
June 5, 2020

Alter Ego
Padmini Arhant
The two most populous nations on earth, China and India under diverse authoritarian rule, one in direct form as Communism i.e. China under Xi Jinping while the other most dangerous, the so-called democracy in disguise totalitarian leadership combined with potent fundamentalist radicalism headed by Narendra Modi are essentially alter ego to one another.
The heads of the largest nations in South and South East Asia are sinister secret society backed in their respective activities far from legitimate governance.
China’s Xi Jinping and India’s Narendra Modi share common traits and problems with a mutual response reflected in the current skirmishes in the Himalayan region.
To begin with mendacity, mistrust and malfeasance are primary attributes in their respective meteoric rise in political career. They both deploy and hopelessly rely on propaganda and mass deception through shoddy journalism hired locally with questionable credentials linked to London further adding to tarnished reputation.
Xi Jinping in China and Narendra Modi in India have miserably failed in their handling of the corona virus, the pandemic dealt with secrecy and draconian measures leaving the relevant victims to fend for themselves.
Narendra Modi government’s colossal failures in many frontiers evident in status quo. Similarly Xi Jinping’s communist hard line policy proved disaster in the domestic and international front prompting undesirable actions exacerbating personal and political recovery.
Though projected as strong leaders through their heavily invested misinformation campaign using press and various media platform, the proof of the pudding is in the failed economies and brewing storm within the country directly affecting their rocky position in the political party and system they are and should be deeply concerned about considering their consistent flaws and fractured performance.
Narendra Modi devised Pulwama attack strategy in Kashmir using Indian Defense security personnel as sacrificial lambs found resourceful in the campaign trail rhetoric in sheer violation of electoral rules and democratic norms during national election in May 2019 claiming fraudulent victory.
The counterpart Xi Jinping in hot waters in the wake of incontrovertible revelations on the corona virus i.e. manufacturing the engineered virus and spreading the deadly pathogen worldwide is a mere tip of the iceberg.
China’s economy, credibility and enchilada in terms of Beijing’s impulsive response to Hong Kong introducing controversial national security law triggered worldwide condemnation.
Additionally, legitimate global frustration on the betrayal over corona virus saga are enough to stimulate egregious actions from Chinese leadership facing enormous pressure and opposition within communist politburo and 1.45 billion oppressed citizens in the misleading People Republic of China.
Regardless of the situations in both nations, the leaderships’ devious maneuver to deflect angry disillusioned population attention from domestic woes and calamities are anticipated reactions.
The warfare in the Himalayan region that has consumed 32 Indian soldiers’ lives and casualties on Chinese side as well that are not officially reported in line with lack of transparency on all issues especially deaths among defense forces is least surprising.
There is no justification whatsoever for China’s aggression towards neighbors near and far in the absence of clear effective resolutions to the crises originated from China.
Likewise, Narendra Modi government acknowledgment on recklessness prevalent in all matter not barring ignoring security warnings from intelligence agencies and open threat from the enemy next door i.e. China’s leadership on the rampant aggression along the Himalayan border leading to unnecessary and preventable loss of lives among Indian soldiers in the past few days is minimum expected from the recalcitrant administration.
China’s Xi Jinping and India’s Narendra Modi bolstered by illegal secret society are at the crossroads of their political challenges that requires humility, honesty and harmony in their approach not haste destructive demeanor.
Finally, no street hawker journalist monetarily incentivized with few rupees using unscrupulous criminal tactics such as superimposition on images in the articles without stating the picture source can possibly rescue Narendra Modi from the indefensible and irreparable damage, albeit self inflicted due to detrimental indulgence and mindless pursuits.
Nonetheless, China’s Xi Jinping and India’s Narendra Modi experience beginning of the end in their political journey. The imminent process delivering hope for the dawn of peace and progress in the region.
Thank you.

India – PM Narendra Modi’s Failures in Every Frontier

India – PM Narendra Modi’s Failures in Every Frontier
Padmini Arhant
Prime Minister Narendra Modi installed by internal and external forces representing undemocratic unscrupulous dealings leaning towards expressed Fascism confirmed via intolerance to legitimate concerns on dysfunctional governance and colossal failures in every frontier diligently follow international masters’ cowardly tactics using own proxies and pawns for attacks at every opportunity is deplorable.
The head of the government on public funded payroll with privileges accompanied by array of taxpayer bankrolled services not to mention advisers at disposal, incapable of meeting even the lowest expectation bare evidence on incompetence and cluelessness on all matter.
The tragedy is the government headed by PM Narendra Modi despite all comforts and conveniences miserably flunking in performance merit resignation from the official post as premier.
Indian government and groveling media of all types epitomizing corruption and criminality not barring promiscuity in dalliance with the evil controlling global politics and affairs are predominantly responsible for status quo.
The nefarious activities of the organized crime syndicates ominously depict the beginning of the end of sinister secret society and representatives falling flat on their face in their futile and failed efforts deploying crony sycophant media, the diverse media otherwise unemployable, worthless and useless in any norm speak volume on secret society, the international criminal clique fait accompli.
PM Narendra Modi is accountable to 1.3 billion population on the systemic failure of his government in drowning the economy to the point of no return, incapacitated in containing the deadly infectious corona virus imported from neighbor China among other consumer goods from a match stick to Sardar Patel Statue are mere examples of Narendra Modi’s disastrous so-called 1.0 and 2.0 terms in office.
So much for Narendra Modi’s dubious Make in India, Be vocal for local slogan not necessarily applying to the government defaulting on all issues as in this respect.
Above all, Narendra Modi”s personal overtures and overarching appeasement towards authoritarian counterpart Xi Jinping of China reciprocal gesture with aggressive incursions surrounding India all around the border with troops and military armament clarifies India’s leadership crises.
China CCP’s Xi Jinping, yet another secret society member exalted by western powers and multinational companies for vested interests pointing the sword at them threatening global peace and security is a major embarrassment and testimony on the real enemies of humanity at large.
The world in lock down buckling to ruthless regimes fostered and nurtured by conglomerate colluding and complicit in manufacturing pandemics consuming lives and costing livelihoods in epic proportion justifiably on the brink of collapse reaping what they sowed all along to establish false fraudulent hegemony.
Thank you.

Corona Virus – WHO Mismanagement
Padmini Arhant
The ruling governments at the state and federal level subject to severe criticism and taking lot of heat from partisan media and predecessor ex-President Barack Obama rebuke of the incumbent President Donald Trump in the handling of the pandemic with rebuttal from the latter ongoing on one side.
On the other hand, the global health authority, World Health Organization having misled the world and allowed the virus spread globally through full cooperation with Beijing leadership, President Xi Jinping of China Communist Party in the critical initial period perhaps never even cross critics’ minds when targeting political leaderships and administrations bogged down in health and economic dual crises.
The burden of responsibility squarely falls on the World Health Organization for miscalculations and misguidance in denying human to human transmission in the beginning and disapproval on international travel ban that triggered contagion effect far and wide.
China and WHO together failed to contain the virus in Wuhan at the onset. WHO obligatory to conduct independent investigation on the outbreak prior to Beijing’s deliberated confirmation in Wuhan, China delayed in providing instructions to the international community until after preliminary epidemic evolved into a pandemic.
The controversy surrounding corona virus origin i.e. Wuhan lab in China with known lapses brought to notice by United States embassy in Beijing back in January 2018 appears to have been ignored raising a red flag in the institute set up for experiments in highly infectious viruses from the wild life viz. bats per numerous data drawing focus on the facility and activities concerning humanity at large.
The current corona virus SARS-CoV2 identified as related to bats that trace back to Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China involved in corona virus research in bats attracting funding from the United States and Europe cannot be isolated in the efforts to determine the pandemic cause.
The global attention on China and WHO, the organization having maintained contact and meeting with China at the early stages of the pandemic have let down global citizens in mitigating the deadly virus.
The global citizens seeking inquiry on the corona virus stemming from China together with WHO director general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus resignation for failure to act immediately in alerting the world governments and citizens that could have saved thousands of lives and averted the massive health and economic disaster are legitimate and valid.
The loss of lives are irreversible and economic costs are phenomenal. Yet those responsible to deliver effectively at the beginning of this pandemic granted immunity on the job and protected from any adverse impact to their position is deeply regrettable.
The reverse would be applicable to any ordinary citizen anywhere had they been reckless in their decision and caused health catastrophe in epic proportion.
The rule of law regardless of status and statehood should be fair and equal. The global health organization expected to prevent pandemics and major health hazards having passed on their responsibility to China by relying on Beijing’s assessment and dissemination on the virus impact that originated in Wuhan, China reflect gross negligence and dereliction of duty.
Beijing’s political clout and economic incentives to WHO top executive and officials undermining public health and safety is systemic epidemic in corruption culture.
WHO at the center of this health quagmire quintessential for egregious actions in dealing with the most sensitive and alarming health calamity.
Thank you.

Secret Society Politics and Selective Impunity

Secret Society Politics and Selective Impunity
Padmini Arhant
In a real democracy, none above law would be upheld without preference and prejudice.
While sitting President becomes a sitting duck and army Generals are a fair game including military personnel prosecuted and sentenced on politically motivated charges,
The cloak and dagger Secret Society active members in United States politics attending secret meetings on all matter concerning United States and humanity at large is the trend.
These members and others endorsed and approved by Secret Society for highest position in the office such as President, Prime Minister, Vice President, Secretary of State and Senior officials are invariably granted impunity as membership incentive on serious crimes ranging from treason, betrayal of public trust, abuse of power during the term in office to collusion and complicity in various activities that had previously in American Political history led to impeachment of then serving President Richard Nixon in the infamous Watergate scandal for wiretapping the political opponent, the Democratic Party headquarters and recently the incumbent President Donald J Trump on Ukraine affair though the latter exonerated in the impeachment trial.
Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, an active member and attendee of Secret Society meeting having marked his presence in June 2016 Bilderberg meeting in Dresden, Germany — the invite only private gathering of public officials, lawmakers, journalists and so-called thinkers collude in secret locations barring public and original press media representing the people and any nation.
In 2016, reportedly “the South Carolina Republican is the only member of Congress attended the meeting, according to an official list of participants. Among those included in the 125-person roster are former Army Gen. David Petraeus, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde.
Also taking part are the editor-in-chief of Bloomberg, a history professor from Harvard University, the head of Google and the prime ministers of Belgium and the Netherlands.”
Similarly in 2008 Presidential campaign, then Presidential candidates Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton from the Democratic Party and John McCain from the Republican Party were escorted to the meeting in Chantilly, Virginia on June 2008 for Secret Society’s formal endorsement and official nod on Presidential choice.
Secret Society comprising globalists promote global agenda exclusively favoring them in economic, political, military, nuclear rights, science, social and religion…preserving elitists privileges for narcissistic goals.
United States proudly proclaimed as beacon of democracy and land of justice has long been prohibited in living up to these values due to Secret Society dominance in politics, economy and judiciary with guaranteed immunity to those regarded critical allies and representatives in maintaining Secret Society run deep state within politics in every nation and their illegal criminal status quo.
Washington D.C. and politics in general is long overdue for deep cleaning and draining the swamp obstructed thus far with Secret Society control world over.
United States former President John F Kennedy appropriately denounced Secret society existence as repugnant.
More than ever now Secret Society dissolution and rejection necessary to free the world from secrecy and tradition making a mockery of democracy.
United States exemplifying fairness and equality in the investigation of corruption scandals and misuse of authority prevalent in all administrations justify calling on former President Barack Obama, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and others in the respective share of spy gate in the White House and private server in the State Department and much more between 2009-2016 and critically the transition period in early January 2017 to testify under oath in the Senate public hearing.
Failure to apply same standards and rule of law across the spectrum regardless of former or current status essentially risk the expressed rule of law.
United States electorate and the nation deserve non-partisanship in dealing with all issues relevant to taxpayers funded administration, congressional members, judiciary and government agencies conduct and their respect or lack thereof for rules and regulations binding them under constitutional oath and pledge to serve the nation and citizens with sincerity and integrity.
Thank you.
