"The United Nations is considering handing over control of regulation of the Internet to the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), and ZDNET reports that Eric Schmidt made it clear that this is a bad idea:

"That would be a disaster... To some, the openness and interoperability is one of the greatest achievements of mankind in our lifetime. Do not give that up easily. You will regret it. You will hate it, because all of a sudden all that freedom, all that flexibility, you'll find it shipped away for one good reason after another," Schmidt said."

''U.S. Busts 29 Over $325 Million in Counterfeit Chinese Goods''

''U.S. authorities charged 29 people with smuggling $325 million in counterfeit consumer goods from China, including phony Nike sneakers and Coach handbags, through a New Jersey port.

The bust was one of the largest counterfeiting probes in U.S. history, and it involved smuggling cigarettes, handbags and sneakers through the Port Newark-Elizabeth Marine Terminal as U.S. agents secretly watched and listened, U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman said. Agents infiltrated two overlapping criminal rings and lured them to use a front company run by the government.''

''Currency Wars as Speculation of BOJ Easing – Yen Weakness Continues''

"Whilst the BOJ has set this inflation “goal”, it does two things firstly, it means the BOJ are setting themselves up for the obvious failure of achieving the stated “goal” as the Japanese economy for 18 plus years has been fighting deflation. Secondly, which is the more likely reason for this action is this is just a proxy for the BOJ to carry out QE as their official interest rate is 0.1% that leaves no room to move official rates- only option is QE for Japan. The currency wars are bound to heat up. The BOJ currently looks as if they are trying to jawbone the Yen weakness further and arm themselves with reasons to go to QE.  All is fair in currency wars!"

Noëlle, who is a researcher at the Centre Européen de Sociologie et de Sciences Politique (CESSP), Sorbonne University, Paris, describes Athens and Thessaloniki as “dying cities”, in which drug use, mental health problems, domestic violence and prostitution are all on the increase.

Not least of the Greeks’ problems is a feeling of powerlessness as their welfare state becomes hollowed out and their household incomes plummet."

''The Foreclosure-to-Rental Boondoggle''

"The reason that housing prices have dipped only 33.6 percent in the United States instead of 60 percent as they have in Ireland, is because the big banks have been keeping inventory off the market. If the millions of homes–that are presently headed for foreclosure–were suddenly dumped onto the market, prices would plunge and the biggest banks in the country would be declared insolvent. That’s why the banks have slowed the flow of foreclosures. According to Amherst Securities Group’s Laurie Goodman, “….2.8 million borrowers haven’t made a payment in over a year. Add that to the over 450,000 real estate owned (REO) units and you have approximately 3.2 million that are in the shadows."

Uganda: ''Why 'Made in China' Is a Cause for Worry''

"Products are made in China, imported by Chinese traders in Uganda, through an efficient export machinery and are now directly sold in Uganda by Chinese retailers! If you have shopped at any local supermarket in any town in Uganda, you will be forgiven for thinking that everything is 'made in China' these days. Chinese products have an irresistible lure. They are quite cheap.

They typically cost less than any other similar product (including Ugandan-made ones). But there is definitely a catch. Chinese industry has made many products seem cheap and affordable and many Ugandans have bought their first TV set or electric fan because cheap Chinese products have made it possible, but this may very well be coming at the expense of the local manufacturing sector."

"China's $22 trillion time-bomb"

"China's growth model is based on the oldest rapid economic growth hormone available: debt"

"For years, a wispy, gossamer dream has been spun by economists working for Wall Street investment banks about how China has managed the impossible: high growth with a very low debt-to-GDP ratio. The dream has been so aggressively sold that almost everybody believes it, including editors of this newspaper who have written glowingly about China’s growth, how far ahead it is of India, how India should give up this race once and for all and so on.

Like all things churned out by Wall Street, this romantic story is also complete rubbish. Regardless of the level of education, we all behave the same way when we analyse countries: we land at the airport, see multi-lane highways, gleaming skyscrapers in the city centre, massive infrastructure development, teeming shopping malls, tall apartment blocks and golf courses. And immediately jump to the conclusion that this country has done it. It has made it. If you are an Indian, you say this country has left India behind by 100 or 200 years."
