Who would tell people would prefer to stay in Japan? I didn't since Nissan's CEO escaped while hiding inside his luggage.
https://www.dw.com/en/costa-rica-breeding-butterflies-for-the-world/av-51952113
Finally they posted some news that don't speak ill about Costa Rica!
https://www.dw.com/en/un-warns-hunger-crisis-in-southern-africa-on-scale-weve-not-seen-before/a-52029274
Did I say starvation just a while ago? O_O I never expected this to get even worse...

Sorry, Wulfo
you can't have these! You lost your chance to grab some ancient Costa Rican art pieces. Even so some of them were fake. O_Ohttps://www.crhoy.com/mundo/macabro-hallazgo-encuentran-10-cuerpos-carbonizados-dentro-de-carro/
Well, Mexico is extremely dangerous. The article says that around 275000 people have been killed there, mainly because of drug traffic...

Protests in Beirut, Lebanon... The world is going through some stage of serious unrest lately.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jan/18/christian-persecution-rise-north-korea-muslims-bla/
And if you're Christian or look like one (to North Koreans or Muslims) you better stay out of those countries...
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/jan/16/donald-trump-issue-new-rule-ensuring-prayer-school/
Yeah, I was wondering why you couldn't pray in the US lately. O_O You know, this kind of affects us as well because the governing party in Costa Rica has implemented rules that pretend to rule out God from public schools. Teachers are even forbidden to give advice to students if it's Bible related or they mentioned God even once. As you might recall, both countries say they respect any person's religious believes, then why haven't they showed any respect for Christianity in the last few years!? You see, many measures were taken AGAINST Christian practices specifically instead of letting people choose freely as required by the law. It's good to know somebody protects basic constitutional rights for a change. I wonder if somebody will do the same down here as well.

Actually, it seems that you couldn't pray in class if you were Christian. However, issues have been around where students were required to learn Muslim beliefs going back to at least early 2015: Politifact Link: High schoolers had to recite Islamic prayer ... make prayer rugs as homework... . Even last year, a Maryland student was forced to write an Islamic prayer which violated her own religious beliefs and freedoms, and tried to sue.
On my mind? Splitting up Kyo's News-of-the-World into its own thread.
RE: News of the World - kyonides - 01-20-2020
Yeah, that's a possibility... but who would read it? O_o?

SARS... I mean, a fellow coronavirus is threathen Chinese and other Asian peoples lately...
Oh but Chinese authorities say they can control it... O_o?https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-51174548
Boiling water is a serious threat indeed...
RE: News of the World - kyonides - 01-22-2020
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-51194651
If you're living in the USA and you thought you'd be safe and you wouldn't ever face a threat like that new coronavirus... I gotta tell you that you're totally wrong about that!
Health authorities have already confirmed the first case in the US... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-51187970
Did CIA really partake in the 9/11 disaster? A French textbook said so... at least till some French teachers started criticizing it for not basing its controversial contents on any solid proof.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51188669
Yeah, some Chinese police station would mark you as a target and... posted a photograph to embarrass you in public!
Of course, they say they stopped doing so...https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-51189782
BBC Wrote:Saad Hariri resigned as prime minister in October in response to mass protests over corruption and mismanagement.That excerpt made me re-read it and say what the heck!?
The Hezbollah movement and its allies chose university professor Hassan Diab to replace him last month, but they could not agree the cabinet's make-up.
Hezbollah? It chooses Lebanon's prime ministers? https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-51193826
Is your name Glenn Greenwald? Then you better stay off of Brazil... for the rest of your life probably.

So they really wanna kill the (in)famous US President!? O_O Iran can really be an extremist country...
RE: News of the World - MetalRenard - 01-22-2020
Iran was made extremist by the USA who removed their democratic leader and replaced him with a (literally) crazy dictator.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat
The entire Iran problem was created by the Western allies.
Oh and, who was it that killed an Iranian general recently? Lol
RE: News of the World - DerVVulfman - 01-22-2020
I concur about the origin of the Iranian extremism, though the religious sect wanted power before the Shah was out. Still, I could go political on the the differences between then and now, but I won't. In some views, political ideology overshadows events.
But six years ago, Lord Nazir Ahmed of the UK put a bounty out for both Obama and Bush.
https://www.memri.org/reports/britains-lord-nazir-ahmed-offers-%C2%A310-million-bounty-obama-bush
He hails from Pakistan, and made the announcement in Pakistan.
RE: News of the World - kyonides - 01-22-2020
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51202000
And we didn't even touch China's newest virus... 9 deceases and 440 confirmed cases should make us think if it might get out of control at some point...
https://www.bbc.com/news/health-51134545
So now UK citizens should allow medical researchers full access to their social media data via their service providers? At first it might sound like beneficial but how can they be sure such data won't be used against them in the near or far future? Does privacy even matter here? O_o?
https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-51171398
Then the debate should be... is an automated car safe as a means of transportation?
Tesla's auto once burnt up and killed the driver IIRC... Could GM have finally perfected the AI driven car!?https://www.bbc.com/news/business-51200446
Oh and Vodafone doesn't trust Facebook's Libra cryptocurrency... I wonder why.
https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-51178369
Vietnam has developed its very own 5G phone technology!? O_o? And its phone company is controlled by the military...
https://www.bbc.com/news/business-51171391
Palladium, nope, it's not what Tony Stark used to prevent him from dying by poisoning but a metal we use in catalytic converters usually found in our cars... unless you bought some Volkswagen that might use platinum instead for they all are diesel burners by design. O_O
RE: News of the World - kyonides - 01-23-2020
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51215348
About 500 cases have been confirmed in China, 17 deceases, and still, experts from UK suspect the actual number of infected people might round to... 4000 individuals!
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51214457
So not even Biden wanna partake in the impeachment trial... O_O How weird!
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51181833
Huawei is now buying not judges but... protesters!? O_o? Who told them that would ever work at all?
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-51205619
So a billionaire now has to pay the salaries of all strikers, namely doctors, that earned nothing for quite some time and were forced to take the streets in an attempt to change their situation. But what about what will happen to the medical sector after the half year period ends? Who will pay them for their badly needed work!?
https://www.crhoy.com/nacionales/pais-activa-centro-de-operaciones-de-emergencias-debido-al-coronavirus/
Even Costa Rica fears this coronavirus...
https://www.crhoy.com/economia/mag-promete-cubrir-demanda-nacional-de-aguacate-con-produccion-local/
Did you know this? Costa Rica and Mexico have not been coexisting in the best terms for the last couple of years. The reason: Costa Rican government had forbidden the importation of avocado (aguacate) like the ingredient you would include in your burrito and taco recipes. Why not? Once upon a time there was a serious phytosanitary issue that made all Mexican avocados inedible. They could sicken you in no time. Of course as times changed, Mexicans claim they have solved the issue, the Costa Rican government, lead by two consecutive PAC administations, have not changed their minds and Mexico pretends to sue Costa Rica for breaking the trade agreement they had signed years ago...

Do you know how does asthma feel like at first hand? Then you might need to learn that asthma inhalers might not let the world get its own break to "take a deep breath".
