  13. LOL!! If Japanese insecurity is stems from US Forces occupying Japan, how do you explain LDP recent win? Especially LDP has supermajority. Rather than blockade on Taiwan, she was being asked whether a blockade on Bashi Straits constitutes an existential threat during Budget Committee. Her reply said that use of warship and force could pose an existential threat to Japan. Not true meh?
  14. https://www.stomp.sg/trending-now/tiktoker-laments-quieter-cny-gatherings-spore-glue-generation-disappearing TikToker laments quieter CNY gatherings in S'pore: 'Glue generation is disappearing' A TikToker shared in a post why he thinks Chinese New Year gatherings in Singapore are becoming a dying tradition, citing reasons like the older generation "disappearing" and the sense of a "comparison season" that deters young people from meeting up. "Is it just me, or does Chinese New Year feel like the party's ending?" Ernie Loh asked in a post on Feb 19, describing a mellow, half-hearted atmosphere during the recent festive season. The 36-year-old dog trainer detailed four reasons for the perceived trend, the first being that the "glue generation is disappearing", referring to the "one or two people that made Chinese New Year happen" in every family. He suggested that others are not stepping up to take on the role of "social anchors", with members of the younger generation choosing not to maintain attendance in the same way. "Participation just drops, the energy changes immediately," he added. Low fertility rate and increased avoidance Mr Loh also cited Singapore's low fertility rate, which translates to smaller family sizes. "Festivals rely on kids — noise, movement, density — and without that it feels controlled, quiet. Not nostalgic anymore," he explained. Another reason he highlighted was that gatherings had become "all about money" instead of enjoying time spent with family, as conversations often revolved around luck, horoscopes, and careers. "Everything's commercialised and transactional. Even the language in CNY is always about prosperity," Mr Loh said. "When something becomes that financial, the emotional aspect tends to just disappear." Millennials might also resort to booking a holiday during the festive season to avoid uncomfortable conversations, he added. He concluded that Chinese New Year traditions may not be dying, but are simply "aging with our society", asking who was responsible for rebuilding them. In response to Stomp's queries, Mr Loh said he noticed changes in his interactions during New Year gatherings. "Fewer people are curious, excited and just there for the festivities. I guess as life goes on experiences also has changed family dynamics," he observed. Mr Loh added that he is based in Bangkok and returned to Singapore so his daughter could visit family members for the New Year. Holidays are 'commercial' and 'soulless': Netizens The post garnered over 34,800 views, with many netizens agreeing with his perspective. "It's because the older folks are slowly disappearing. They are the ones who really made CNY feel like CNY," one netizen mused. Some described the holidays in Singapore as "commercial", arguing that holidays are "all about making money" rather than a genuine celebration. Others cited slower economic growth, resulting in people being less willing to splurge during the festive season. Another commenter suggested: "Be that person who brings people back together."

  17. https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/se-asia/malaysias-tb-outbreak-public-urged-to-mask-up-in-crowded-places-as-number-of-cases-rise-over-3000 Malaysia’s TB outbreak: Public urged to mask up in crowded places as cases hit over 3,100 KUALA LUMPUR – As Malaysians flock to Ramadan bazaars and breaking-fast gatherings, the Health Ministry is reminding the public to observe tuberculosis (TB) precautions, especially in crowded and enclosed spaces. In a statement issued on Feb 21, the ministry said a total of 596 new tuberculosis cases were reported nationwide during the sixth epidemiological week from Feb 8 to 14. The statement said the latest detections brought the cumulative number of tuberculosis cases to 3,161 across the country. “Crowded, enclosed and poorly ventilated spaces increase the risk of transmission, especially if an individual with untreated active TB is present,” it said. “Ramadan itself is not a cause of TB transmission. However, higher social interaction during the month may increase exposure risks.” The ministry stressed that community awareness and proactive measures are key to early detection, effective treatment and prevention of TB spread. “With collective action, we can ensure a safe and healthy Ramadan for all,” the statement added. “Unlike influenza or Covid-19, TB spreads more slowly and usually requires prolonged and repeated exposure.” The public is advised to practise proper cough and sneeze etiquette, ensure good indoor ventilation, wear masks if symptomatic or in crowded areas, and seek medical attention for coughs lasting more than two weeks or other TB-related symptoms. The breakdown of cases shows that Sabah recorded the highest number with 755 cases, followed by Selangor with 596 and Sarawak with 332 cases. Johor was next with 280 cases, while the federal territories of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya recorded 244 cases. Kedah registered 181 cases, followed by Penang with 172 cases and Perak with 154 cases. Kelantan recorded 121 cases, Pahang had 103, Terengganu 74, and Negeri Sembilan 62. Meanwhile, Melaka saw 48 cases, Perlis reported 21, and the Federal Territory of Labuan registered the lowest number at 18 cases.
  18. It's over population and integration issues, double whammy.
  19. You are such a cuckoo Japanese insecurity stems from US forces occupying Japan, and US is asking Japan to contribute increasingly more and more, yet not giving Japan the greater autonomy in return. Takaichi could have said if China has designs on Senkaku or Okinawa, it will constitute a Threat to Japan's survival. Instead, she said about Blockade on Taiwan causing the above classification. Taiwan does not belong to Japan, and it is obvious that this remark will antagonise PRC, to suit her political purpose and PRC walked into it; by choice or otherwise. Which country has designs on mainland Japan? Other than USA, perhaps Russia, with an opportunistic leadership is the other non-innocent party
