#TraffickingVictims held against their will in #Myanmar & forced to work in #ScammingOperations are being forced to sell their organs if they don’t meet quotas, a charity in #Vietnam said Thursday.
The #trafficked citizens - from #China, Vietnam & other countries- are told to target & groom their compatriots, before cajoling them into ploughing money into fake investment platforms & other ruses.

#Vietnam’s “rice bowl” delta region, where #MekongRiver empties into #SouthChinaSea, is predicted to run out of #sand in just over a decade. Losses to riverbed are devastating lives & harming the local economy.
Over the past 2 decades, #HydropowerDams upstream on the #Mekong restricted flow of sand to the delta. And #SandMining to feed Vietnam’s construction boom is depleting resources, according to a major #WorldWideFundForNature (#WWF) report.

The Goodman collection was pieced together by Goodman’s friend Bruce Blowitz, who purchased directly from #artists during his travels in the 1990s to #Vietnam, not long after Vietnam first opened to international markets in a reform called “đổi mới.” Before then, state #censorship of artists forced many to sell and display their works privately.

many of you have noted the awful headlines in the mainstream media
I do think it helps if you tag the media in your posts, and it helps even more if you email them and complain
eg, NPR' s headline has gotten a lot better

Mass murderer and War Criminal Henry Kissinger is finally dead!
He won the Nobel Peace Prize, along with Lê Đức Thọ, for their work in orchestrating a ceasefire in the Vietnam War. Two Nobel Prize committee members resigned in protest. During his diplomatic career, Kissinger was involved in orchestrating and/or supporting the Chilean coup and Pinochet dictatorship (over 3,000 killed); the Argentine Dictatorship (up to 30,000 killed); the Pakistani genocide in Bangladesh (3 million killed); and the Genocide in East Timor (up to 300,000 killed).

"A giant of the Republican party...
"Working closely with president Nixon, Kissinger was influential in momentous decisions regarding the Vietnam war including the secret bombing of Cambodia in 1969 and 1970. That was part of what Nixon called the 'madman theory,' an attempt to make North Vietnam believe the US president would do absolutely anything to end the war."

The scandal about #hubertseipel unveiled how the #German non-reaction to the #invasion of #Ukraine in #2014 and the annexation of #Crimea as well as the hesitant and haphazard reaction to the full invasion in #2022 is in part caused by biased or outright pro #Kremlin #journalists narratives.
Media and population accepted and repeated those willingly because 1. They linked well at the time prevalent Anti-Americanism resulting from #Irak, #Afghanistan and even #Vietnam wars
2. They allowed the notorious confrontation, decision & rapid action avoiding society & politics to have an excuse for their inaction.
However the decisive factor shouldn't be if some "expert" is paid by russia or not. It should be the validity of their arguments and positions.
Many more have been invited to talkshows who weren't/aren't paid but stated similarly twisted facts and made pro Russian #propaganda.
Many academics warned about them for years but were never asked. #Media should start inviting them instead.

Today in Labor History October 1, 1964: The Free Speech Movement began on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, when activist Jack Weinberg was arrested for refusing to show his identification to the campus police while standing at an illegal political literature table. Thousands of students spontaneously surrounded the police car, which remained there for 32 hours, with Weinberg inside. Protesters used the car as a speaker's podium. The Free Speech Movement lasted for two years and was the first mass act of civil disobedience on an American college campus in the 1960s. Students were fighting for, and won, the right to have public political activities on campus, particularly in support of the Civil Rights and Anti-Vietnam War Movements.
