How BBC manufactured the perception of a "Massacre" without having to show their viewers a single chip of a dead person

Wei Ling Chua — Wed, 28 May 2014 12:17:23 +0000

Despite the 2011 WikiLeaks leaked US government cable and the 2009 confession made by BBC journalist James Miles that he had "conveyed the wrong impression" and that there was no one killed in Tiananmen Square in 1989. A simply search on BBC website using the term ‘Tiananmen Massacre’ will revealed that the BBC has continued to use the term ‘Tiananmen Square Massacre’ in all kind of occasions to demonise the Chinese government.

ethiopia youth live with poverity and migraion.

Anonymous — Sun, 02 Feb 2014 06:58:55 +0000

Over half of Ethiopia’s population consists of young people between the ages of 15-24 years. Many of the youth face diverse problems and live with constant life challenges. Especially in urban centers of the country, the number of delinquent juveniles is increasing. In Addis Ababa alone it is believed that there are over 100,000 people living on the streets, and more than half of these are young people. This number is increasing every day due to poverty and migration of people from the rural to urban areas in search of a better life.

Rael supports China’s call for a de-Americanized world

Anonymous — Thu, 17 Oct 2013 02:10:06 +0000

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 16 – After China’s official news agency called for a “de-Americanized world,” and referred to the United States as “a hypocritical nation with a dysfunctional government,” Rael, leader of the International Raelian Movement (IRM), issued his support for China’s position in a statement released today by the IRM.

“I totally support de-Americanization,” he said. “China should lead ex-victims of Euro-American colonialism and imperialism in this movement. It should create an alliance that includes all past victims.”

Concerned about WW3? The time is NOW!

Australia couldn't have chosen a worse time to be president of the UN Security Council in its temporary role there. Its main ally, the USA, is avidly seeking another war, this time with SYRIA. Australia's prime minister until the September election, Kevin Rudd, is brazenly advocating an attack on Syria and last year, the foreign minister, Bob Carr, exhorted the assassination of Syria's president Bashar al-Assad ( http://www.indymedia.org.au/2012/10/13/bob-carr-the-intended-assassinati... ).

On the Status of Visiting Forces Agreement with Australia

The Philippine-Australia military agreement, known as the Status of the Visiting Forces Agreement (SOVFA), which was poised to be ratified by the Philippine senate on June 6, has now been postponed until late July for final ratification. The SOVFA will enable Australian troops to conduct military exercises and other related activities in the Philippines. The SOVFA, as with the US Visiting Forces Agreement, sets the guidelines for the treatment of visiting Australian troops. The SoVFA was signed in Canberra in May 2007.

War being prepared against China behind the backs of the Australian people

Anonymous — Mon, 04 Jun 2012 09:40:58 +0000

It has been revealed in The Australian newspaper that the 2009 Defence White Paper “Force 2030” included a secret chapter that planned for Australia to fight alongside the U.S. to enforce a naval blockade of crucial sea lanes and how in return Australia might be faced with retaliatory attacks by China on our ports, mines and strategic targets like the U.S. Pine Gap military base. It also reveals that this potential conflict was the reason that the White Paper committed Australia to purchasing tens of billions of dollars worth of military equipment. This revelation is just the latest that documents how the deepening of our military alliance with the U.S. in a time of increasing militarism in the Asia Pacific poses great dangers to the working classes of not just Australia but indeed the whole region.

Media disinformation: Understand South China Sea standoff through the Filipino media

Wei Ling Chua — Wed, 23 May 2012 11:16:13 +0000

China is now Australia’s largest trading partner. Western Australia’s Premier is right to point out that: “… of the 60,000 new jobs created in Australia over the past 12 months, 50,000 were in WA, which now accounted for 70 per cent of the nation's exports to China … To some extent, the strength of the WA economy is concealing the true weakness of the national economy.” Therefore, it is in Australia national interest that our policy makers are able to understand China in an objective manner. I hope that the following article will contribute to such an objective.

- How rumour journalism works?

Chinese police have arrested six people and shut 16 websites after rumours were spread that military vehicles were on the streets of Beijing. Without factual verification, such unsubstantiated internet rumour has gone viral internationally as a sign of instability and power struggling in Beijing following the arrest of Bo Xilai last month.
