11 January 2024: Crown Prince Hussein, accompanied by Princess Rajwa, attended the launch of the Jordan-Singapore Tech Alliance Forum.

Speaking at the launch, Crown Prince Hussein highlighted the forum’s importance in unifying the two countries’ efforts towards technological excellence.

He stressed Jordan’s keenness to become a rising force on the international tech scene, highlighting the importance of digital transformation and entrepreneurship in nurturing creativity and turning ideas into reality.

The similarities between tech talents in Jordan and Singapore can be a bridge that connects the two countries and enhances cooperation in service of mutual interests, the Crown Prince said at the forum, held by the Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship and Jordan’s embassy in Singapore, in cooperation with the Singapore Business Federation and SG Tech. (Source: Petra)

His Royal Highness invited business people, experts, and CEOs to visit Jordan to learn more about the ICT and entrepreneurship sector, which is full of promising Jordanian talents.

Minister of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship Ahmad Hanandeh said that with more than 8,000 students graduating from IT-related programmes each year, Jordan’s digital economy continues to flourish, noting that Jordanians are making an impact that is attracting businesses from around the world.

He expressed the ministry’s keenness to continue helping Singaporean companies find the perfect home for their business in Jordan, highlighting the Jordan Source programme, which is helping businesses capitalise on Jordan’s exceptional potential as a global IT and business process outsourcing hub.

The Jordan-Singapore Tech Alliance Forum saw the participation of nearly 150 representatives of tech start-ups in Singapore, in addition to six Jordanian start-ups that provide technical support to international companies in sectors like gaming, digital education, and creative industries.

During the forum, key Jordanian tech companies gave briefings on their work, and participants engaged in discussions to attract international firms to Jordan by showcasing the competitiveness of the ICT sector in the Kingdom and success stories of Jordanian start-ups.

The forum also featured a presentation on the Jordan Source programme, launched in 2021 during a ceremony attended attendance of the Crown Prince, to promote Jordan as an international hub for innovation and investment in ICT and communications.

The forum is part of a series of Jordan Source promotional tours to attract investments and build partnerships with international companies seeking to expand into the Middle East through Jordan.

On the sidelines of the forum, a memorandum of understanding between Jordan’s Institute of Banking Studies and the Singapore FinTech Association was signed.

Planning Minister Zeina Toukan, Jordan’s Ambassador to Singapore Samer Naber, and Director of the Office of the Crown Prince Zaid Baqain attended the forum.

Summary: Natasha Romanoff has a huge crush on CEO Steve and decides that the company’s Christmas party is the perfect opportunity to win him over but she ends up exaggerating and after several disastrous events she wakes up in Steve’s bed without remembering how she got there. And the most surprising thing is that he makes her an unusual proposal: that she pretend to be her fiancée!

Steve Rogers is a workaholic CEO who, in order to escape the family’s insistence that he have a serious relationship, invents a fake bride. And when the family shows up by surprise and catches him with the employee he brought home drunk and passed out last night, he decides to make her a proposal: that Natasha pretend to be his fake bride.

What Steve doesn’t realize is that Natasha has much more elaborate plans for him, making him a very malicious counterproposal!

[frostynovaprime]

Mmmmmm post sleep Tennocon Rambles under the cut

Ofc because I just started vet school last week (yay) I couldn’t attend in person. Really sad I couldn’t attend because I’ve always loved it when I went to the 2017 and 2018 events. Had to watch the stream, but it look like from pictures everyone had tons of fun and I’m glad it was a success. Next year, please let it be closer to the middle of the summer akdjejak

Art panel, the highlight for me as always as an artist myself. Really cool to see all the concept works from way back in Dark Sector. I’m so sad the art book was so expensive and sold out so fast, but I hope this means they can be inspired to do a reprint in the future (maybe when food expenses arent draining my bank like a whirlpool….) The new upcoming concepts I can’t say I’m a fan of all too much. Grendel is my most hated frame but the boar is a cool inpiration for him. I personally think the game is very oversaturated with Liger concepts, so as per most Liger deluxes Sevagoth wasn’t my cup of tea. They designed the frame, why not have someone else take a shot as his deluxe? I didn’t catch who designed Yareli’s bu that one was interesting.

And….. the Heirloom skins collection. They’re pretty. I though Mag’s was for Nova and got too excited for a bit. And as a Frost main I’m always glad for more content containing him, hell I squint at his skin because it has a few elements that are strikingly similar to my Deluxe concept for him back in 2021. But. The price. I want to buy it, but this entire collection pitch is exactly what Digital Extremes has vow to not do in all 10 years with their fair free to play model, and this sets a very bad precedent if it were to continue. $90 USD is too high of a price for a pack of skins marketed as being in celebration of 10 years, inflated artificially with the Regal Aya. A pack of 6 (with an extra bonus, making 7 total and 400 platinum) is $40 which means everything in the second tier pack is only $30. The same price as the low tier. The only new thing the skins intoduce are the Signas, which are cool, but I gesture to Kaithe coronets. The skins have no new visual effects for abilities, no new animations, not even new idles like recent Deluxe skins have. Rebecca used the word “prestigious” for describing the pack. And I beg her to NEVER use that word again for cosmetics. Prestigious content is a very slippery slope. Take the Prestige skins from League. Because of those skins Riot is now thinking they can make a variant recolor of a very old Jhin legendary and mark the price up to $200. Warframe doesn’t need that. Not to mention the FOMO. The Heirloom pack is gone at the end of the year. Even past Prime Access comes back in Resurgence after a few years. Nightwave brings back old items from past story events. The only thing that has never returned was the Founders Packs, for a good reason. The Heirloom collection feels like a rehash of the Founders marketing in the present state of them game where it’s most likely not trying to stay afloat. FOMO has never existed in Warframe, and it shouldn’t be added now.

Don’t even get me started on that 10 year Accolade in the packs. Accolades have usually been for people who made a notable contribution to the game. Founders, Closed Beta testers, Creators. All of them have some sort of impact on the game be it keeping it afloat in the starting year or contributing to the Community. Now a shiny sticker can be added to any account for as low as $30. I’ve been playing the game for 8 years. I’m not a ‘10 year supporter’ yet. The wording itself insinuates that to supoort the game for a decade, you need to pay. That Accolade should have been something added automatically when your account turns 10 years old.

Overall I’m extremely disappointed bu the Heirloom marketing as it stands. Will I buy it down the road? Chances are high when I’m not bleeding for food with school going on, which is at the very end of the year right before it goes away cause I also give into FOMO. DE has adjusted their strategies before, and I hope they do so now. But this has already set a bad first impressions for any future Heirloom content.

Anyway, rant over on that. Sound panel was cool. Always cool to hear how specific sounds are made like Kullervo. The Heirloom debacle kinda soured my mood for a bit, so I focused more on studying my classes and then went shopping with my roommates.

Came back a little late to TennoLive, probably halfways thru the Soulframe demo. From what I saw I really like the whole concept and thematic. The little turtle guy is so cute. Excited to see more of its development and eventually play it.

The Warframe aspect I had more range of feelings. Whispers in the Wall looks really cool and I’m excited for exploring what the fuck Albrecht is doing. I love how its expanding Deimos more, instead of adding another island and button to navigation. It feels like it’ll require the New War to access, since its all based around the aesthetic of the Man in the Wall seen at the very end of the quest. I’m very interest in the human Loid (best design from Liger since Nezha Empyrean imo). I hope he gives more insight into the attitudes of the Orokin since he is 99% likely from before the Old War.

And… Warframe 1999. I got sucked into Warframe because of it’s unique spin on fantasy sci-fi. And throughout the 8 years I’ve played it’s stuck to its aethetic formula to a T. Seeing CRT monitors and Nokias along with Entrati designs, the modern sci-fi elements and callbacks to Dark Sector makes it feel out of place. Blasphemous almost. But, I’ve had this feeling before with Duviri. I had reservations as to whether Duviri would break the Warframe Universe as we knew it. But DE made the Paradox make sense, and the aethetic language of the world fits perfectly into the formula. I absolutely love Duviri. I need to see more and play 1999 in order to feel how it connects to the Origin System and Duviri as a whole, be it the very distant past (and being born in 99 myself makes me…. Haaaaa) or a parallel universe connected by Void Fuckery(tm). But seeing how Duviri played out I have no real doubts DE won’t pull it off again.

Repercussions from Finns Party MP Timo Vornanen's night out last Thursday continue to reverberate around Finnish politics.

The North Karelian legislator was taken into custody by police, and is now suspected of firing a shot into the ground following an altercation at a karaoke bar in the early hours of Friday morning.

Helsingin Sanomat has interviewed several people present at the bar on Thursday, and offered new details about Vornanen's evening. It's an extensive story including several details not previously known, and is cited in several other media outlets on Tuesday.

Iltalehti, meanwhile, has a piece on Vornanen's other profession — policing. He is currently on leave from the police after his election last year, but can he continue to hold that position?

North Karelia police chief Samppa Holopainen was cautious, saying that it depends on many factors.

He declined to comment directly on the Vornanen case but speaking on a general level, he said that if charges are filed and an individual is convicted, then the police force would weigh those factors in deciding on appropriate disciplinary action.

Banking deception

Business daily Kauppalehti ran an unsettling editorial in which they detail recent events at the OmaSäästöpankki bank.

The bank has admitted a senior employee had downplayed the risks of its property loan portfolio, causing a 19 million euro dent in first quarter results.

The bank says it has learnt a valuable lesson, and the individual responsible for entering false data in its systems is no longer working for the institution.

This instance affected a small part of a sector that's responsible for just three percent of the bank's six billion euro balance sheet. While shocking, the OmaSäästöpankki revelations are quite small-scale.

But Kauppalehti asks unsettling questions about whether the next banking scandal might be on an altogether larger scale.

Loan books at the Silicon Valley Bank caused a bank run and a collapse last year, and the European Central Bank has warned of risks in the property sector.

With property and construction facing difficult times in the next year or two, KL asks if there is a possibility the next banking scandal might be much bigger.

Tappara shares on offer

Yesterday's paper review included news of Tappara's latest ice hockey championship, and today's edition includes a tip (from Aamulehti) on buying a chunk of Finland's most successful hockey club.

Some 1,580 shares in Tappara are being auctioned off on huutokaupat.com, as part of bankruptcy proceedings against the previous owner.

The shares would give the new owner a spot among the top 17 owners of the club. Others include the Finnish-British-Israeli London resident Chaim "Poju" Zabludowicz, and Florida Panthers centre Alexander Barkov.

At the time of writing there had been 49 offers from 11 bidders, with the highest at 45,500 euros. There are 18 days to go in the auction.

​Clan capitalism

Ukraine became independent in 1991 following a referendum in which more than 90% of voters voted in favor.[3] Until 2014, Russia accepted this result and recognized Ukraine’s existence in a sort of regime of “limited sovereignty”. Ukraine was tied to its larger neighbor by economic relations[4] and Russia was able to use its local clients to influence internal political development. The latter has long been turbulent.

The period of economic transition in which Ukraine followed, to some extent, the prescriptions of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, quickly created a new capitalist class. At first, it was composed mainly of “red directors” (i.e., the managerial cadres of the Stalinist regime), and later also of broader layers – from the ranks of the technical intelligentsia, various parts of the state apparatus and the criminal underworld. The 1990s were a true Eldorado for this class, though often quite dangerous for its individual members. Using both legal and extralegal methods, it seized key enterprises and banks, which it either stripped of all assets or concentrated into giant holdings and investment groups. Profits were exported to tax havens. At the same time, it began to take control of the media and politics. Unlike its predecessors in the Stalinist nomenklatura, it also managed to integrate itself into the global capitalist class, at least in terms of the use of its consumption fund (yachts and luxury properties abroad, jets, as well as private investments in international financial markets).

Meanwhile, Ukraine’s real GDP per capita was in steady decline– up until 2000. Average life expectancy decreased from 70.5 (in 1989) to 67.7 years. Non-payment of wages,[5] work in the informal economy, and a decline in purchasing power became everyday realities for the Ukrainian working class. Although the numerous strikes, marches, hunger strikes, and blockades have managed to score some local successes (e.g., the payment of wage arrears, postponement of privatization, etc.), they failed to change the overall course or create a broader movement.

The story so far is not that different from the Russian one.[6] However, the centralization and consolidation that Putin implemented after the Asian financial crisis and the collapse of the ruble (1997–98) never took place in Ukraine. Putin gradually nationalized some energy companies, built a “power vertical”, whose backbone was formed by security service cadres and various personal friends, and subordinated the oligarchs to this structure. The latter has since overseen the distribution of rent derived mainly from fossil fuel extraction. Ukraine’s domestic capitalist class, by contrast, has remained divided into competing “clans” that are tied to specific sectors of the economy and geographic regions.[7] The rivalry between these factions of Ukrainian capital has been the basis of political instability.

The numerous movements of political protest which often also voiced social and welfare demands were always co-opted by a political project of one of the groups – either from the very beginning or gradually. The “Ukraine without Kuchma” (2001–2002) and “Arise, Ukraine!” (2002–2003) protests were directed against President Leonid Kuchma, involved in several scandals, including the murder of a journalist. The “Orange Revolution” (2004–2005) was in response to the electoral fraud of the then prime minister and presidential candidate Viktor Yanukovych, as well as the suspicious privatization of Ukraine’s largest steelworks in Kryvyi Rih (Dnipropetrovsk Oblast), in which Kuchma’s brother-in-law was involved along with the former Donetsk gangster, Rinat Akhmetov. The movement “Rise up, Ukraine!” (2013) opposed President Yanukovych and his attempts to consolidate power. Finally, the Euromaidan (2014) was a reaction to his decision not to sign the Association Agreement with the European Union. The most successful of these movements, the Orange Revolution, and the Euromaidan, may have led to a change of political leadership, but they did not significantly shake the position of the clans, let alone the clan system as such. Ultimately, they became a means of bringing another faction of the domestic business class to power.

The lumpen-capitalist competition, in which one or the other faction gained control of the state (and thus preferential access to loans, subsidies and contracts), explains, at least in part, why the state has failed to impose a long-term, viable development plan on the country. On the other hand, this unstable environment also left some room for the development of a resistant civil society, including independent trade unions, activist organizations, and the radical left.[8]

Russia maintained an influence over Ukraine through those sections of the local capitalist class that were materially interested in maintaining close relations – for example, in the interests of their own sales, favorable prices for inputs (especially, but not exclusively, energy inputs), or gas transfer fees. The capital base of this faction was mainly concentrated in the Donbas, the former industrial heartland of the Soviet Union, home to a large Russian-speaking population and the birthplace of the Stakhanovite “movement”. In the 1990s it was the scene of the bloodiest conflicts within the capitalist class, a center of organized crime – but also the epicenter of the tragedy of the “old” working class, especially the miners. Their mass strikes in the late 1980s and early 1990s helped destroy the Soviet regime and win Ukraine’s independence,[9] but after a wave of privatizations, asset stripping and bankruptcies, many found themselves with no jobs or prospects. Between 1992 and 2013, the population of Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts fell by 1.7 million, declining at twice the rate of the rest of the country.[10]

- karmína,“the tragedy of the ukrainian working class” (2022)

[3] This was about 76% of all eligible voters. In Crimea, support for independence was the weakest, at around 54% of the vote. Similarly in Crimea’s Sevastopol, which was a separate constituency – 57%. In Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts, however, almost 84% of those who voted were in favor of independence. Wikipedia summarizes the results in detail.

[4] As recently as 2013, imports from Russia accounted for 29% of total imports of goods; exports to Russia accounted for almost 23% of Ukrainian exports of goods. By 2020, both indicators had dropped to 11% and 6%, respectively (see oec.world). On the other hand, exports to the EU15 already accounted for a larger share of total Ukrainian exports than exports to Russia in 2002. Thus, the dependence of Ukrainian industry on Russian gas and oil has played a decisive role. 

[5] A specific feature of the Ukrainian (as well as Russian) transition was that official unemployment never reached a level close to twenty percent, such as in Poland (2002) or Slovakia (2001). Workers in enterprises that ran into trouble remained formally employed but were not paid – although in many cases they continued to work. Sometimes they received payments in kind instead of cash.

[6] Of course, in many respects it is also reminiscent of the history of other former Eastern Bloc countries, including Slovakia.

[7] The history and structure of the “clans” is described in “The Oligarchic Democracy” by Sławomir Matuszak. See also “The Consolidation of Ukrainian Business Clans” by Viatcheslav Avioutskii.

[8] A peculiar phenomenon of political life in Ukraine was the emergence of a seriesof fake left-wing groups founded around 2000 by the same circle of people. These pseudo-organizations established contacts with foreign “internationals”, mainly of the Trotskyist variety, and lured material aid or money from them. It was enough to write that they identified with their political program and wanted to become a Ukrainian or Russian section. Despite personal meetings, it took three or four years for the foreign donors – delighted by the unexpected growth of the workers’ movement in the former Eastern Bloc – to discover that their “partners” were in fact political hucksters. The scandal had seriously damaged the international reputation of the Ukrainian left, though one may also pause at the credulity of Western leftists.

[9] On earlier strikes by Donbas miners for economic demands and democratization, see the documentary Perestroika from Below (1989). Later strikes had more explicit political demands, including national independence. See the interviews with strike leaders in Donetsk, as well as a brief documentary (with English subtitles). The history of miners’ protest from perestroika to 2000 is summarized in an essay by Vlad Mykhnenko subtitled “Ukrainian miners and their defeat”. See also the recollections of the Dnipro working-class militant, Oleg Dubrovsky, in a 1996 interview (in English), as well as his analysis of the process of privatization of the mining industry (in Russian).

[10] One of the consequences of the disintegration of the mining industry in the Donbas has been the growth of illegal mining in the so-called kopanki. A section of the 2005 documentary, Workingman’s Death, focuses on the phenomenon. The post-apocalyptic landscape of the Donetsk Oblast is depicted in the short documentary, Life After the Mine (2013).

The Amazing Facts and Stories of Dubai that You Might Not Know

"Have you ever wondered how Dubai became one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world? How did this city transform from a small fishing village to a global metropolis in just a few decades? What are the secrets behind its success and appeal?

As a travel enthusiast and a frequent visitor to Dubai, I have always been fascinated by this city and its history. I have done extensive research and explored many aspects of Dubai’s culture, economy, and attractions. In this answer, I will share with you some of the most amazing facts and stories about Dubai that you might not know.

I will cover the following topics:

The origins and evolution of Dubai

The vision and leadership of Dubai’s rulers

The innovation and diversity of Dubai’s projects

The challenges and opportunities of Dubai’s future

By the end of this answer, you will have a better understanding and appreciation of Dubai and its achievements. You might even want to visit it yourself someday!

The Origins and Evolution Of Dubai

Dubai's history dates back to the 18th century when it was a small settlement of fishermen and pearl divers on the banks of Dubai Creek. The creek was a natural harbor that facilitated trade and commerce with neighboring regions. Dubai soon became a thriving port and a hub for regional and international trade.

In the early 20th century, Dubai faced several challenges, such as the collapse of the pearl industry, the Great Depression, and the World Wars. However, Dubai's rulers managed to overcome these difficulties and maintain the city's prosperity and stability. They also established friendly relations with other countries and joined the United Arab Emirates in 1971.

The turning point in Dubai's history came in 1966, when oil was discovered in its offshore fields. This gave Dubai a huge boost in its economy and development. Dubai's rulers invested the oil revenues wisely and strategically in various sectors, such as infrastructure, education, health, tourism, and finance. They also diversified the economy and reduced its dependence on oil.

Dubai's growth and transformation accelerated in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, when it launched several ambitious and innovative projects that made it a global leader in many fields. Some of these projects include:

The Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world

The Palm Jumeirah, the largest artificial island in the world

The Dubai Mall, the largest shopping mall in the world

The Dubai Metro, the longest driverless metro system in the world

The Dubai Miracle Garden, the largest natural flower garden in the world

The Dubai Frame, the largest picture frame in the world

These are just some of the examples of Dubai's achievements and attractions that make it a unique and remarkable city. In the next section, I will discuss how Dubai's vision and leadership contributed to its success and appeal.

The vision and leadership of Dubai's rulers

One of the main factors that enabled Dubai's rapid and remarkable development is the vision and leadership of its rulers. Dubai's rulers have always been visionary and forward-thinking, anticipating the future needs and opportunities of their city and their people. They have also been courageous and bold, taking calculated risks and making smart decisions that paid off in the long run.

Dubai's current ruler, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is a prime example of a visionary and a leader. He is the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, and the Ruler of Dubai since 2006. He is also the founder and chairman of the Dubai Future Foundation, which aims to shape the future of Dubai and the world through innovation and collaboration.

Sheikh Mohammed has a clear and ambitious vision for Dubai, which he outlined in his book "My Vision: Challenges in the Race for Excellence". He wants Dubai to be:

A city of happy, creative, and empowered people

A city of tolerance, harmony, and diversity

A city of excellence, innovation, and competitiveness

A city of culture, heritage, and identity

A city of sustainability, resilience, and opportunity

To achieve this vision, Sheikh Mohammed has launched several initiatives and strategies that guide Dubai's development and progress. Some of these include:

The Dubai Plan 2021, which sets the strategic goals and priorities for Dubai's social, economic, environmental, and urban development

The Dubai Smart City Initiative, which aims to transform Dubai into the smartest and happiest city in the world by leveraging technology and innovation

The Dubai Industrial Strategy 2030, which aims to enhance Dubai's industrial sector and increase its contribution to the GDP

The Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050, which aims to make Dubai a global hub for clean energy and green economy

The Dubai 3D Printing Strategy, which aims to make Dubai a global leader in 3D printing technology and applications

These are just some of the examples of Sheikh Mohammed's vision and leadership that inspire and motivate Dubai's people and partners to work together towards a common goal: making Dubai the best city in the world. In the next section, I will discuss how Dubai's innovation and diversity make it a dynamic and attractive city.

The innovation and diversity of Dubai's projects

Another factor that makes Dubai a unique and remarkable city is the innovation and diversity of its projects. Dubai is always looking for new and creative ways to improve its quality of life, enhance its competitiveness, and showcase its identity. Dubai is also open to different cultures, ideas, and perspectives, which enrich its society and economy.

Dubai's projects reflect its innovation and diversity in many ways. Some of these include:

The Dubai Expo 2020, which is the first World Expo to be held in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia region. The Expo will showcase the achievements and aspirations of 192 countries and millions of visitors under the theme "Connecting Minds, Creating the Future". The Expo will also feature three sub-themes: Opportunity, Mobility, and Sustainability.

The Museum of the Future, which is a futuristic museum that will explore the emerging trends and technologies that will shape the future of humanity. The museum will also serve as a platform for innovation and collaboration among experts, researchers, and innovators from various fields and disciplines.

The Al Marmoom Desert Conservation Reserve, which is the largest project of its kind in the world. The reserve covers 10% of Dubai's total area and hosts more than 40 plant species, 10 reptile species, 9 mammal species, and more than 360 bird species. The reserve also offers various activities and experiences for visitors, such as camel trekking, cycling, camping, and wildlife watching.

The Dubai Design District (d3), which is a creative hub that supports the growth and development of the design industry in Dubai and the region. d3 hosts local and international designers, artists, entrepreneurs, and innovators who work in various fields, such as fashion, architecture, graphic design, and digital media. d3 also organizes events and programs that promote design education, culture, and community.

These are just some of the examples that Dubai faces in its innovative and diverse projects that make it a vibrant and attractive city. In the next section, I will discuss some of the challenges and opportunities of Dubai's future.

The challenges and opportunities of Dubai's future

Dubai has achieved remarkable success and progress in a short span of time, but it also faces some challenges and opportunities in its future. Dubai's vision and leadership, innovation and diversity, and projects and achievements have prepared it well for the future, but it also needs to adapt and evolve to the changing needs and expectations of its people and the world.

Some of the challenges that Dubai faces in its future include:

Maintaining its economic growth and diversification in a competitive and uncertain global environment

Balancing its development and expansion with its environmental and social sustainability

Preserving its culture and identity while embracing its diversity and openness

Enhancing its security and stability in a volatile and complex regional context

Fostering its human capital and talent development in a dynamic and digital era

Some of the opportunities that Dubai has in its future include:

Leveraging its strategic location and connectivity as a gateway and hub for trade, tourism, and innovation

Harnessing its technological capabilities and infrastructure as a platform for smart solutions and services

Capitalizing on its creative potential and culture as a source of inspiration and expression

Strengthening its partnerships and collaborations with other countries and organizations as a leader and contributor to global development

Building on its legacy and reputation as a city of excellence, happiness, and possibility

Dubai has a bright and promising future ahead of it, as long as it continues to pursue its vision with passion, determination, and resilience. Dubai has proven itself to be a city that can overcome any challenge and seize any opportunity. . From the breathtaking landmarks to the bustling markets, it has something to offer for everyone.

And with the addition of Dubai Desert Safari, the city has even more to explore.Dubai has shown the world what it can do, and it will continue to do so.

This concludes my answer to the question: How did Dubai become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world? I hope you enjoyed reading it and learned something new. Thank you for your time and attention.

Brazil leads as open banking takes off in Latam

Following the lead of open banking initiatives in Europe and the UK, five countries in Latin America – Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico – have backed open finance regulations or are implementing them.

“There are a number of success stories in other parts of the world, specifically Latin America, where open finance is really having a massive impact on the financial sector and on financial inclusion,” says Pablo Viguera, co-CEO and co-founder of open finance platform Belvo. 

Brazil has reached five million connected accounts less than a year after the first implementation deadline passed, a feat which took between four and five years in the UK, according to a report by Open Banking Excellence. 

As of February 2023, after two years, there are already 22 million customers in Brazil who consented to share their personal and banking data between participating financial institutions, according to Febraban, the association of Brazilian banks.

The principle of full interoperability has been the main driver of the open finance initiative in Brazil since the country opted out of a model in which all institutions plug into a single institution. Finally, Brazil not only defined its application programming interface (API) standards but also the required steps in the customer journey.

Don’t Fear the Seasons – Sell in May

But don’t go away. We actually sold some positions in April when we issued our MACD Best 6 Months Seasonal Sell Signal to Almanac Investor subscribers. Reposition in May is a better strategy. Best & Worst Months stats plus a compounding onetime $10K investment tell the story. Can’t argue with success.

Worst Six Months May-October is not a binary selloff. Risk is elevated historically, stocks tend to be volatile, moving sideways with choppy trading – illustrated in the chart. Anyone who tries to refute this by going back past WWII is making a moot point as the seasonal pattern was inverted when our economy was agrarian driven in yesteryear.

We sold $DIA & $SPY, plus other seasonal sector trades, underperforming stocks and rotated into some bond ETFs. This is the time of year we shift to a neutral stance – between our Dow/S&P Best Six Months MACD Sell Signal and our NASDAQ Best 8 Months MACD Seasonal Sell on or after June 1.

Everyone gets hyper focused on whether you should Sell in May or not. But forget as I like to say: “Buy in October and get yourself sober.” From my October 4 Buy Signal to my April 25 Sell DIA and SPY trades were up 10.8% and 8.2% respectively. QQQ is up 15.5% from the October 4 Buy as of midafternoon trading today.

If there is any year it’s time to get defensive in May, it’s this year. With the debt ceiling showdown, the banking crisis, inflation, interest rates and the slowing economy, it is a perfect time to move to the sidelines and enjoy the healthy yields in bonds.

USD/JPY and Trade Balance: The Hidden Formula for Forex Success USD/JPY + Trade Balance: Unearthing Forex Market Secrets for Savvy Traders The USD/JPY Trade Balance Connection: More Than Just Numbers Think of the USD/JPY pair as a high-stakes tug-of-war between two economic giants. On one side, you’ve got the U.S., a voracious importer, and on the other, Japan, a manufacturing powerhouse. At the heart of their tussle? Trade balance. In Forex trading, understanding the trade balance—the difference between a nation’s exports and imports—is like knowing the secret ingredient in grandma’s pie recipe. It’s not flashy, but it’s essential to predicting currency movements. When Japan’s exports soar, demand for the yen increases, often pushing USD/JPY down. Conversely, a trade deficit can send the yen sliding, giving the dollar an edge. Here’s the kicker: it’s not just about the numbers. It’s about context. What’s driving the trade surplus or deficit? How are global trends—like supply chain disruptions or energy prices—impacting these dynamics? Let’s dig deeper. The Trade Balance Sweet Spot: Spotting Market Opportunities 1. Timing Is Everything Trade balance data is released monthly, and savvy traders know to mark their calendars. It’s like anticipating a plot twist in your favorite TV show—the buildup is everything. The Bank of Japan’s trade data often creates volatility in USD/JPY, presenting short-term trading opportunities. Pro Tip: Watch for deviations from forecasts. For example, if analysts expect a $2 billion surplus and the actual figure comes in at $4 billion, expect the yen to strengthen against the dollar. 2. Correlating Trade Balance with Export-Heavy Sectors Japan’s trade balance is heavily influenced by exports in tech, automobiles, and machinery. Keeping tabs on earnings reports from giants like Toyota or Sony can give you an early edge. Strong corporate earnings can signal a higher trade surplus, strengthening the yen. 3. The Energy Angle Japan imports most of its energy, making the yen sensitive to oil price fluctuations. If crude oil prices spike, expect a dent in Japan’s trade balance and potential weakness in the yen. Combine this with the USD/JPY pair for high-probability trades during energy market upheavals. Advanced Strategies for USD/JPY Based on Trade Balance The Divergence Play Sometimes, the USD/JPY chart tells a story that doesn’t align with trade balance data. This is where divergence trading comes in. For example: - Scenario: Japan posts a trade surplus, but USD/JPY rises due to external factors (e.g., U.S. rate hikes). - Tactic: Use technical analysis to confirm overbought conditions on USD/JPY and prepare for a correction. Hedging Against Uncertainty Trade balance data is notoriously unpredictable. Hedge your positions by: - Diversifying across correlated pairs like EUR/JPY or AUD/JPY. - Using options to cap downside risk while keeping upside potential. Scalping the News For adrenaline junkies, trade balance announcements offer prime scalping opportunities. Set tight stop losses and leverage liquidity spikes immediately after data releases. Tools like economic calendars can help you stay ahead. Common Pitfalls (and How to Dodge Them) Ignoring the Bigger Picture Trade balance is a piece of the puzzle, not the whole picture. Always consider other macroeconomic factors like interest rates, inflation, and geopolitical tensions. Overreacting to One Report Markets love drama, but as a trader, you should focus on trends rather than single data points. If Japan posts a trade deficit for one month, it doesn’t mean USD/JPY is set for a long-term rally. Insider Tips for Mastering USD/JPY and Trade Balance - Use Trade Balance as Confirmation: Combine trade balance analysis with technical setups for stronger conviction. - Leverage Economic Calendars: Platforms like StarseedFX’s Forex News can keep you informed of key data releases. - Join a Trading Community: Get daily alerts and insights from experts at StarseedFX Community. Quick Wins: Elite Tactics in Bullet Points - Monitor Japan’s export-heavy sectors for trade balance clues. - Watch crude oil prices to gauge yen sensitivity. - Use divergence trading when USD/JPY movements conflict with trade data. - Hedge volatility with options and correlated currency pairs. - Rely on economic calendars to time entries and exits. The Trade Balance Edge Understanding the USD/JPY pair’s relationship with trade balance data is like wielding a secret weapon in Forex trading. By blending this knowledge with advanced strategies, you’ll navigate the market with the precision of a samurai. Ready to elevate your trading game?

Palestinian Fundraisers

Hey y'all, can you please spread the word about these fundraisers and donate if you have even one dollar to spare.

"Hello everyone, I will tell you my story in the war in the Gaza Strip and I hope that you will help me get out to safety. Thank you very much. I am Ali Muqdad, 33 years old, and my wife, Aya Hamdan, 25 years old. She studies psychology at university and did not complete her studies due to the poor security and economic conditions. I finished my diploma in security sciences and did not work in my field of study. I resorted to working on a project to earn my daily bread. Thank God, I was successful in my project, but in the shadow of the war on us, we lost everything: home, money, business, and even clothes. I paid all the money in the house and business that I had due to the bombing that we witnessed throughout the days and to this day. We were displaced several times, and the first night was extremely difficult. In the morning, it was our first displacement and exit from the house. Then we lost everything. We lost our beautiful memories and the wonderful things that I and the family used to live on. The most difficult thing we lost was safety and peace. This is because of the violent shelling that surrounds us at all times and moments in all the places we were displaced to, as well as the days we spent in displacement several times were difficult due to the lack of work to obtain money, clothing, food, water, and to meet the needs of the family and the needs of the children, especially since we are in tents and there is no healthy food or medicine due to the spread of diseases, not even water or electricity. Through the repeated displacement process, we lost the stable and entertaining life that I, my wife, and my children Habeeba and Adam used to live, who lost their beautiful childhood, which was the first days of their childhood and their games that they loved and played with all the time. My daughter Habeeba lost her studies in kindergarten, and my wife, who suffers from fatigue and exhaustion all the time as a result of displacement from place to place, from tent to tent, which changed the entire nature of our lives from a beautiful house to a tent in the middle of the street where we sleep. Therefore, I need your cooperation and help in collecting money to leave the Gaza Strip, because leaving the Strip due to the war requires Large amounts of money and each person needs approximately $5,000 to $7,000. I need to collect money to restore my beautiful life and my business that I lost due to the war on the sector, which amounts to between $25,000 to $30,000. For your information, everything that has been narrated is a small part of the life we ​​live."

Hello, I am Atiyah, and I live in Ireland. In truth, I am horrified and heartbroken by the amount of destruction and death happening right now in Gaza.

I am organizing a fundraiser for my friend Ibrahim Sheikh Salama, who is trapped in Gaza and has already lost so much. I hope we can save him and his family. I have set up a bank account specifically for this campaign to track donations, and I will transfer the funds raised here to him to support their survival through this massacre and to eventually evacuate them from Gaza. Part of the funds will also go to covering daily living expenses, as everything has become extremely expensive right now. Please read his story:

Hello, kind-hearted donors, your generosity can turn our story from tragedy into a story of resilience and renewal. We hope you can help us in this unstoppable war to survive with the simplest necessities. Please consider extending your hand to us in this difficult time. Together, we can heal wounds, restore lives, and plant the seeds for a brighter tomorrow.

Hello, I’m Ibrahim from Gaza. I live with my wife and four children.

Our life before 10/07/2023 was full of optimism and peace, but because of the brutal war and the mass extermination carried out by the occupation army on Gaza on that date, we lost our home and were forced to flee, moving more than 8 times in search of a safe place, but to no avail.

The war destroyed my livelihood and my family’s livelihood, and we faced hunger, illness, and the harsh conditions of heat and cold for an entire year. We lived in a small tent that we moved in several times to different places, fleeing from the bombing and destruction, all in search of safety.

In the midst of this tragedy, my dear mother was severely injured as a result of bombing by the occupation’s planes. She was transferred to Egypt for treatment. She underwent five surgeries, and now she is staying in a hospital in Egypt. However, we are unable to bear the costs of her treatment and the required medical supplies, while we have no income or source of livelihood. Additionally, the blockade on Gaza prevents us from visiting her due to the enormous amounts required to coordinate our entry through the Rafah crossing.

Amid this suffering, we were blessed with a newborn.

His arrival brought us great joy, but it also increased our burdens. Our baby needs special care, and his needs, such as formula milk and diapers, have become extremely expensive. I cannot describe the feeling of helplessness when he cries from hunger, and I cannot meet his needs. The high prices and the absence of income have made securing even the most basic necessities for him nearly impossible.

To my second family،

Our situation, as well as the situation of my family and the people of Gaza, has become incredibly tragic. Can you imagine that my wife, our four children, and I, along with our entire family, have been displaced more than 8 times and have lived in tents for over 13 months? We are now suffering from hunger in the truest sense of the word. The occupation uses hunger as a weapon and has blocked the entry of aid and food trucks for over two months, leading the country to famine. Prices have skyrocketed, and every day that passes, we live in real hunger.

“In every corner of Gaza, there is a story of pain, but also a tale of resilience defying death.

“In Gaza, it’s not just the sun that sets… but also souls that depart, and dreams buried beneath the rubble.”

“A child in Gaza doesn’t dream of toys; he dreams of a peaceful sleep undisturbed by the sound of bombs.”

“Here in Gaza, time isn’t measured by hours, but by the number of breaths left under the shelling.”
