@cgtn: I hate to have to read while watching a movie. Movies are supposed to entertain you.
Not have you reading the script, and not being able to follow the acting, the scenery, the backdrop, or events as they unfold, without distractions.
That is why I do not watch Non-English speaking movies.
@cgtn: Most of those athletes who are debarred from competing at the highest levels in Africa, because of failure to show up for dope testing. Are guilty for the lack of Self Discipline or Negligence.
Professionals are supposed to have the commonsense to observe the rules at all times.
And failing to do so is indicative of this lack.
It is the collective expression of all aspects of the human experiences. Be it regional, geographical, or territorial.
No single aspect of culture like music, or art, can express any culture fully.
Without including all of the other social and societal aspects.
It is a pity that our Captain and Lion, has to leave FC Barcelona under an umbrella of internal rancor.
But I guess when you are as good as Lionel Messi is, relinquishing the tether of attachment by the administration will be very difficult to undertake.
Anyway, I am fully supportive of his decision to leave Barca right now.
My Dad abandoned me as a baby. Therefore, I have decided that his seed will never continue through me.
So I chose not to have any children of my own.
This is how you kill undesirable lineage!
One cannot help but admire the strength, vigour, imagination, and resolve of these people, to get out of collective poverty.
Ever since Mao Tse Tung’s Cultural Revolution was launched, millions were sacrificed to bring China out of darkness, backwardness, and poverty.
Followed by the Great Leap Forward drive, to industrialize the entire country at breakneck speed. No amount of money or lives were spared in this effort.
And today, China is the economic power and envy of those Big Western powers.
But all the Chinese want is to develop economically, and be able to compete on equal terms, with the West in the Global Market and Trade arenas.
China does not promote imperialism, or colonialism.
And has no national policy of intervention in the affairs of other nations either.
It trades with whomever can provide what it wants. And buys from those who have what it wants or needs also.
Making it the only developing power that poses no military threat to the world currently.
I am tired of hearing the Global TV anchors, and even African politicians use generalizations about this continent.
China is involved with several countries in Africa. Benefitting both sides with bilateral developmental agreements.
So to use generalizations when talking about China and Africa, is misleading and incorrect.
Because this continent consists of 54 Independent Sovereign countries.
Yes, millions of un-documented US residents whom overstayed their Visa requirements, were debarred from the Fedsral Stimulus package money.
They were left to starve and die if necessary.
So I cannot support any of these two contenders for the US presidency this year 2020.
These two terms are used interchangeably. However, the virus does not operate according to any human measurement.
It shows itself whenever it is able to be transmitted freely, and un-impaired.
So when large volumes of people assemble anywhere without face masks, that is the time when the virus is most invasive.
Now that we are saddled with this selected and illegal criminal regime, and the witch hunt to dispose of all and sundry, that they feel are not their supporters, voters, and acolytes alike.
Here is the dilemma that will be created.
Guyana does not have the human resources with the qualifications and experience needed in abundance, to occupy the Public Service jobs adequately.
If we use prejudicial methods to fire some, where will we get their replacements from?
Can we afford to start from scratch at this level in our continual development, and suffer the consequences?
Any rational leader would first inquire from those chosen by the previous administration, if they would like to continue working at their post.
And keep those who do, and allow those that don’t to leave quietly.
