Taiwan vital to Indo-Pacific strategy

https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/editorials/archives/2021/09/03/2003763704

What we really need now is the Taiwanese government and public raising their voices, because Japan is not the same as it was before.

The administration of Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga often stresses the importance of peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and most Japanese politicians and members of the public are pro-Taiwan and anti-China.

If they could hear the Taiwanese government and public say that “Taiwan is a sovereign and independent country, not a part of China,” the Japanese government and public would find it hard to ignore MEXT’s inappropriate pandering to China.

Hopefully, future Japanese textbooks will lead children to understand that Taiwan and China are two completely different countries, and Taiwan is the one that is our true friend, as well as that China has no right to annex Taiwan.

Hideki Nagayama is chairman of the Taiwan Research Forum.

“ Amidst pressing challenges of our time, such as global warming and the pandemic, it is tremendously reassuring to initiate events like Green Summer in Hong Kong! where we seek authenticity of origin, share a passion for winemaking, and cultivate respect for nature.

I wish every wine lover to embark on a green journey and join me this summer in discovering the world of organic wines.

A votre santé !”

I got my DNA results back from CircleDNA! There was so much more analysis than I expected! Not only is my ancestry listed (100% European 🤣 ), but there are dozens of other fascinating reports. You can really use these to optimize your life planning. From which nutrients I should be focusing on, to outlining the strengths and weaknesses of my personality, I feel much better prepared to tackle the future. One thing I found reassuring was that I'm at a very low risk for cancer and other genetic diseases. The DNA test also confirmed my suspicion that I'm a natural night owl, and require around 9 hours of sleep to function normally 😴 . You can literally spend hours going through all the reports, so thank you CircleDNA for all these wonderful insights!

มาชมการทดอลงขี่ 2018 Kawasaki Ninja 400 (คาวาซากิ นินจา 400) ตัวใหม่ล่าสุดที่มาแทน Ninja 300 โดย 2 แชมป์โลก Jonathan Rea และ Tom Sykes

Kawasaki adds a lightweight street focused contender to the impressive Ninja range: the all new Ninja 400. An impressive, sharp-looking, accessible sports model offering excitement and ease of riding.
The 400cc market has a strong representation in Asia and America and is now claiming ground in Europe as well. Kawasaki proudly introduces the new Ninja 400 into this highly competitive segment confident that this machine will claim its place in such a hard fought arena. The all-new sporty 399cm3 engine is tuned to deliver greater performance than its predecessor, the Ninja 300, accompanied by a smooth and predictable throttle response. While being just 100cm3 larger, the capacity increase is just one part of a fundamental upgrade delivering improved power, torque, chassis stability and suspension compliance moving entry level Ninja riding into a completely new arena.

Like its predecessor, this bigger brother is not just about performance but it is also developed to deliver ease of riding. One of the aspects that contributes to this reassuring handling is substantial weight saving. Thanks to its lighter chassis and slim design the Ninja offers both stability and easy manoeuvrability making the Ninja 400 an easy choice for new and experienced riders alike.

With the mighty Ninja ZX-10R as inspiration, the Ninja 400 fits right into the legendary Ninja range. The large volume bodywork with hints of Ninja H2 styling gives the impression of a larger capacity machine, attracts attention and gives even greater level of wind protection. And all is topped off with contemporary design, excellent fit and finish plus the look and feel of the KRT ZX-10RR racing colours.

Hello Youtube Family,

So a couple days ago, I was admitted to hospital due to bleeding issues. After a vaginal examination (lovely!), they wanted to keep me overnight to monitor the baby and I. I was only kept overnight and as worried as I was, I had a pretty good time at the hospital. The nurses and doctors from The Royal Maternity were SO NICE! It didn't take long for me to feel comfortable because they were constantly reassuring me that I was in good hands. Initially, the scare was that my placenta was tearing but looks like it's due to my poly polyps bleeding/being infected. The biggest reassuring moment came from the ultrasound technician as she saw nothing alarming with my placenta. Baby Acorn was constantly kicking me to let me know everything is more than okay. In fact, I felt quite bad taking up the nurses and doctor's time because i got to meet other fellow mummies and they had conditions that were much more serious than mine. Nonetheless, I enjoyed meeting the new mummy friends there =) I'm now taking it easy with my movements. It's amazing what one day of bed rest can do for the pain and bleeding.

Don't worry, guys. I'm so sorry for making you worry. Thank you once again for your kind words and prayers. Everything has made me cherish little acorn even more. We're super excited for our little baby shower/gender reveal this weekend. You guys will finally find out the baby's sex VERY SOON! Place your bets hehe!!

Love, the Bubz family xo

Hello YT family!

Today’s Vlog:
Pressure is ON!
StyleConAsia
SINGAPORE BOUND AGAIN!
Two Face
Video Bombing

Singapore was amazing as always. I had such a wonderful time meeting you all for StyleconAsia. Thank you for even more wonderful memories. You guys make my heart smile. I'm flying off to Malaysia today. It's going to be my first time and I AM SO EXCITED because it's one of my bucket list places. Can't wait to squeeze you all!! I'll also be headed for Jakarta and Manilla afterwards. Stay tuned for each city's meet & greet info!! A little update on Tim, Isaac, Chubbi and Domo- they are all doing completely fine back home. Tim took Isaac to a festival yesterday and won him some goodies. Apparently weather has been very nice too. That was very reassuring to hear although Isaac tends to be extra well behaved with his daddy. Can any other mummies relate about this?


Love, your friend Bubz xo
