Chapter 54: Covering the 10th - 12th of November 2012



SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2012

I heard that North Korea is like fifty years behind the modern world. Fifty years is a long time, and you seem to have received an article on the state of that nation. I would like to read that article, if you can send it to me, but I will do more research on Democratic Republic of Congo. I wonder what the Human Development Index number of North Korea. The unofficial HDI of North Korea in 2011 is 0.618. That is more than double DR Congo's HDI at 0.286.
There are hundreds of ethnic groups there, and they have been in civil conflict  among at least tribes and warlord armies since the 19th century. These wars have claimed the projected lives of 3 million. Most of the conflict is in the east as the government is not credible as Joseph Kabila is taken the presidency for a second 5 years. He is the son of long time president and corrupt leader Laurent-Désiré Kabila. Joseph’s reign can be likened to the reign of Assad of Syria as his father ruled before him. “The main opposition candidate was put under nominal house arrest.” A lot of the conflict comes from the resources of diamonds and other minerals; however, the culture is full of art though from music to visual arts.
The fear of unrest is real, but the material for culture life is limited. I bet despite the fear that life still goes on like in Jamaica, and culture is rich. If the country is ten times worse than Jamaica, I have no idea how the life of a family there will have today.

I want to report today on the current state of economies from my simple understanding thereof. The Japan’s economy shrunk by 0.9% during this past quarter, and as you see in the first few tweets it is down 3.5% from last year at this time. The many technology companies have been struggling to keep up with innovation. I saw many quarterly reports missing their marks.
The United States is facing the fiscal cliff as the tax cuts are going to expire and Obamacare is going to hit us. This is one of the first issues that Obama is working on. This past week I read that the deficit is narrowing, but the expenditures of the government are still high.
Today Greece approved 2013’s budget, and the government there finally approved their austerity measures this past week despite the protests.
Spain is facing hard times as two people committed suicide for their evictions. The government are seeking a way to limit evictions as a result.
A French mayor has been on a hunger strike for greater financial support of his city since the 9th of November 2012.
The Iranian Government and it’s industries are facing the worst sanctions of the world, and it’s steel market is having a very time.
Portugal has a great struggle as numbering as third as the worst hit with Greece and Spain, but they seem to be working it out.
