Savez-vous quel est le problème politique majeur de #Taiwan ? La mafia.
Thread 🧵
Taiwan est divisé en secteurs entre des groupes mafieux qui, en plus de tout le reste, contrôlent le gouvernement local.
Chaque politicien qui se présente à une fonction publique représente l'un ou l'autre groupe mafieux.

En outre, la mafia entretient des liens étroits non seulement avec les yakuzas japonais mais aussi avec la Corée du Nord.
Le plus important des trois groupes taïwanais est l'Union du bambou, ou Zhulyanban, qui, selon diverses estimations, compte entre 10 000 et 30 000 personnes

Hindi bawal maging kritikal. Bahagi ng kasaysayan ang elitismo ng Liberal. At kung gusto niyong magbasa, nagsulat ako equally tungkol sa panahon ni Aquino at ni Duterte with the same criticality and vigor. — radikalchick.com (nagsusulat ako diyan since 2008).
Dilawan and yellow ARE ALREADY PEJORATIVES equated with elitism. Six years of calculated, strategic propaganda under Duterte does that. There's no use in denying it. — katrinasantiago.com/escalate-raze-…
The #ASEAN disunity over AUKUS
The #ASEAN sees #aukus pact increases geopolitical risks in the region, as #aukus is aimed at countering rising Chinese belligerence.
The rise of partnerships in the region, which are not ASEAN-centric causes them concern.

2/ How have various #ASEAN countries reacted to #aukus ?
They've not reacted in unison. Each member expressed its own views. The divergence in opinion was quite apparent.
Brunei did not speak about it.
Indonesia expressed caution with AUKUS.
Malaysia appears astonished.

3/ #Vietnam is more open to #aukus “All countries strive for the same goal of peace, stability, cooperation, and development” & nuclear power can be harnessed for development.
The #Philippines is more welcoming of the #aukus though President #Duterte sounded contradictory.

Yakın tarihin en sıra dışı devlet başkanı: Duterte
Papa'ya da Obama'ya da "o... çocuğu" diyebilen, Avrupa ülkelerine hakaretlerde bulunan #Filipinler Devlet Başkanı Rodrigo Duterte, yakın tarihte gördüğüm ve kafamda sınıflandıramadığım tek devlet başkanı.

Uyuşturucu kartellerine karşı mücadele etmeyi başkanlığının en önemli icraatleri arasına koydu, satıcılara yönelik ölüm talimatları verdi, bölge ülkelerinin aksine ABD’den para istedi.
2016’da başkan olduktan sonra silahlı gruplarla masaya oturan, silahlı mücadeleyi bırakmayan komünist NPA’ya yönelik işkencelerin bile önüne açan Duterte, ülkesinde yaşayan yaklaşık %10’luk #Müslüman nüfus için Ramazan Bayramı’nı resmi tatil ilan etti.

Chief Presidential Legal Counsel Salvador #Panelo insisted that those criticizing President Rodrigo Roa #Duterte’s demand for the United States (US) to pay the #Philippines for hosting American troops should allow the chief executive to “strategize” since it was part of his job.
While acknowledging critics’ right to free speech, Panelo said their sentiments would give the US the impression that there is disunity among Filipinos.
Panelo reiterated that President #Duterte is the chief architect of foreign policy as mandated by the #Constitution

We're already IN the culture of violence fashioned by #Duterte the past four years. I will never tire of saying: REFUSE TO BE THE MONSTER WE WANT TO SLAY. Take back democracy. Fight this culture of violence.

Ayon kay Senator Richard Gordon na siyang ring Chairman ng Philippine Red Cross, nagtataka siya kung bakit hindi pa rin nababayaran ng PhilHealth ang Red Cross kahit matapos pang sabihin ng Pangulong Rodrigo #Duterte na magbayad ito.

NOW: President Rodrigo Roa #Duterte talks to the nation. He is set to announce new quarantine classifications for next month.
PRRD: Alam mo, this country continues to be playing with corruption
PRRD: I have made a pledge to the people of the Philippines na 'yung oath of office ko part of it really is to protect government interest
A video of the anniversary event for Kabataang Makabayanvor KM, showing the connection of aboveground activist groups like the Kabataan Partylist of Sarah Elago, to the underground students' movement KM tied to the CPP-NPA.
In the Philippines, where @Facebook is popular, it has enabled a lot of people to connect with families and friends and meet new ones, do their business and express political opinions usually reserved to mainstream media.
The problem really comes from @Facebook PH fact-checkers who want to suppress political views they disagree with. Worse, they had kicked out the #HandsOffOurChildren page, by parents who want to recover their kids from the CPP-NPA, and pro- @TeamAFP pages
NEW: @Facebook takes down 155 accounts, 11 pages, 9 groups linked to #China for "violating our policy against foreign or government interference"
Most of the focus was on #SouthChinaSea #HongKong #Philippines-#Duterte BUT some activity focused on #Election2020

Per @Facebook, the #China-linked activity that targeted the US "gained almost no following"

PRRD: For as long as the virus lives in this planet, we are put in real danger.
PRRD: We did not join the government to lie.
I've posted screencaps, but let me break down the last part of that speech, where #Duterte revealed he was angry and pikon about OUR frontliners going public with their call for a #TimeOut and #ECQ because of the current Covid-19 response IS NOT WORKING. A thread.
"You did not need to go into raising your hands, revolution revolution. If you think this can be solved by revolution, go ahead, so I will be calling all people who love their country to come forward to work for me, 'yung mga healthworkers to come to help." #DefendFrontliners
"But there is no need for 1,000 of you guys, telling us what to do, publicly. You could've just written us a letter. You know it's the resources. And pera, may gusto kayong bilhin ko, ang problema, ang bulsa ko butas na yung isa. Dahil we have suffered economically."
#LGBTQ people who broke the #coronavirus curfew in the Philippines were forced to kiss and perform a 'sexy dance' for a police captain.

“Acts of abuses, including torture & cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment and punishment, must not be tolerated. Skirting the law especially during the pandemic only further enables the already prevalent culture of impunity” @amnesty’s Butch Olano said

Yesterday commemorated Jose Rizal’s vision for #PhilippineSovereignty. I am asking all our followers to RT these messages. Rizal was a Patriot executed by Spain for speaking out for Filipino freedom. He was a European educated writer, thinker & leader of the Revolution.
#Rizal identified with the people & sought for the identity of the original Philippine people. His vision helped forge a nation. But U.N., U.S. & NGOs still treat Philippines like a colony.
It is like the #OpiumWars in China. British & other Europeans forced China to grow Opium & allow its people to consume it. Addiction & corruption destroy national character. Chinese rose up; killed for resisting enslavement to opiates. Now Western agencies doing it again!
Yale history prof @TimothyDSnyder outlined 20 lessons from the 20th Century on preventing tyranny from overcoming democracy. His book is a must-read for #TheResistance: amazon.com/Tyranny-Twenty… (Thread)
1/ Do not obey in advance. Do not acquiesce or conform to the new regime, offering to comply before compliance is required by law. Hitler's party consolidated power b/c too many citizens offered anticipatory obedience.
2/ Defend Institutions. Trump has aggressively sought to undermine all independent institution that opposes his admin, including the free press, the judiciary, DOJ, FBI, & #Mueller. Choose an institution you cherish and take its side.

#CeritalahASEAN started with Ceritalah 25 years ago in the early 90s - during the height of print media. In those days, The Economist, The Straits Times, The New York Times, were really flourishing. Much of the 80s and 90s, I met with and talked to editors across the world.
Those publications were really dynamic and powerful.
But we've seen those publications come down. WSJ stopped printing in Asia. Jakarta Globe stopped printing in 2015. KiniBiz, Volume in Thailand also stopped printing....
What has come up to replace those institutions?
