looks like China will be the leader in renewable energy

http://interaksyon.com/business/135955/ ... s---report
PARIS, France -- China's overseas investment in renewable energy projects jumped last year by 60 percent to a record $32 billion (30 billion euros), marking its leadership in the global market for clean energy, a report said Friday.

In 2016, China finalized 11 foreign deals worth more than a billion dollars each, and is expected to pick up the pace this year, according to the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis.

On Thursday, China announced that it would sink at least $361 billion into renewables by 2020, key to the country's transition away from polluting coal power.
meanwhile in the US :lol:

that would mean the US would not follow the Paris Accord anymore, good thing Duterte will

I'm no Trump fan but I believe the US to be a multiracial country. Just my opinion.

Parang Japan, japanese first. Kaya wala akong problem sa mga policy ni Trump na americans first, para sa bansa nila yun. Ang mga pinoy masyadong nagpapa under sa mga ibang lahi. Kaya natutuwa din ako sa style ng leadership ni Duterte, kahit papaano hindi na minamaliit ang mga pinoy.

Wala din akong problem sa travel ban ni Trump. Ang Japan matagal nang may ganyang style sa mga muslim kaya tingnan nyo halos wala silang history ng mga terrorists attacks pero wala namang nagre reklamo sa Japan.

there are better ways to protect one's homeland w/o resorting into radical generalization.. mali pa din na igeneralize na ang mga muslims ay terorista and ang mga south americans ay drug pushers.. lumakas tuloy ang white supremacy and pagkalat ng uninformed discrimination..

and matagal ng mataas ang tingin ng mga ibang bansa sa mga pinoy.. hindi dahil kay duterte yan.. kilala ang mga pinoy na hardworking and honest.. di lang talaga nawawala na may mga nangbubully pa rin na ka ugali ni trump sa ibat ibang bansa..

and i read an article about the so called japan policy na "no muslims.. no terrorist".. na kesyo nagpapasok man sila ng muslim hindi sila nagbibigay ng permanent residency.. bawal ang islamic/arabic language/subjects sa mga japanese universities, bawal ang koran, etc.. which lahat ay hoax naman and debunked by the prime minister himself.. magpapapasok sila ng mga muslim sa japan.. pwede sila mag aral mag trabaho and maging permanent resident hanggat susunod sa mahigoit.ng policy and reatrictions ng japan kagaya ng ibang nationalities.. though ang nakakalungkot sa japan malakas pa din ang uninformed discrimination lalo na sa muslims or arab people.. yung term na gaijin or outsider madalas na ginagamit sa pang discriminate or pang bully.. though sa nga muslim may halong takot kaya nila sinasabi yun dahil sa uninformed generalization na muslims = terrorists.. even dito sa pinas kapag may nakakitang bihis muslim na balot talaga pati mukha may mga natatakot or nagbibiro na terorista sila..

Filipinos have been afforded the benefit of being welcome in countries abroad for opportunities to work, live, and be assimilated into another culture.

Our economy has literally been carried by both remittances, and business process outsourcing industry this past decade and a half.

So i dont understand why an inward looking, protectionist regime would benefit us.

Trump is just against illegal immigrants because most of them are criminals. Mexico gets the money from the Americans, Americans get the criminal from Mexico. There's nothing wrong building a wall to prevent illegal immigrants from Mexico. Previous American leaders before suggested building a wall to Mexico but it was never a big issue. China and Israel also built a wall for safety purposes. Nothing is wrong building a wall.

Muslim Immigrants/refugees wants to enforce sharia law into countries who accepted them. This is why European countries is on a serious threat. Trump doesn't want it to happen in his own country. Trump never issued a muslim ban. As a matter of fact major muslim countries can still enter America except Iran. So many rape cases in Europe done by these refugees. Sweden became the rape capital of the west because of these muslim refugees and swedish government is afraid to report it afraid of being labeled as islamophobe.
Recently in Canada, young girls there were sexually harassed 2 weeks after accepting refugees.

Funny thing is, LGBT liberals who protests violently because of Trump's policy for muslim illegal immigrants/refugees fight for the refugees right to enter their country yet these muslims wants them to throw off buildings.

Muslims can enter Japan but their immigration rules from islamic countries are very strict. Obtaining a working visa is very hard and even if they lived there for many years they have a very very low chance of becoming a japanese citizen. Exhorting of Islam is forbidden which results to deportation or jail sentence. Importing of Quran is almost impossible, usually only accepted japanese translations are accepted. Praying sites are very few. The last time i heard there's only 2 mosques in Japan. Praying sites are mostly done in apartments. Japanese companies doesnt show interest in muslims. Japanese people perceives Islam as dangerous.

If Trump wants to deport illegal immigrants in favor of getting jobs back to his fellow Americans then we have no right to protest. This is one of the main reason why UK choose to brexit. Hundreds of thousands of jobs was not given for its native people. Our country has anti illegal immigrants law too. Our american based BPO companies here is confident they'll stay in our country as of now.

tama naman sinabi nila obama and hillary.. it's basic common sense na bawal pumasok ang isang tao na walang document or peke ang document sa ibang terrotiry.. against sa batas yan and risk sa national security.. dapat talaga i ban ang illegal immigrants kahit saan.. ok yung sinasabi niya papauwiin lahat ng illegal immigrants.. ang mali yung BAN niya sa mga immigrants from certain countries specially yung mga islam ang religion and generelizing them as terrorists then yung mga mexicans na drug pushers.. then threatening na aalisan na trabaho pati green card holders with his america first policy.. na if titignan "american only" gusto niyang policy palabasin..

may similarities talaga si trump and si duterte.. mali na sinasabi mali pa pagkakasabi.. :sweat:

Tama naman talaga sila. ang kaso naging napaka laking issue nito sa mga anti Trump ng america. protesters who blocks roads in america cant give a clear answer why illegal immigrants should not be deported. other celebrities and politicians supports these protests too. even a mayor in New York thinks drunk driving or minor crimes committed by illegal immigrant must not be deported.

Only 7 countries are banned. most of them are just minor islamic countries. Iran ban is just temporary. its not an act of generalization because people from major islamic countries can still enter the US. there are immigrants from these 7 banned countries committed terrorism. since 9/11. Trump just wants to protect his country from terrorism. i dont see any probem with that.

Trump called illegal mexicans drug dealers and criminals. The fact is, the largest supplier of heroin, cocaine, meth and other illegal drugs to US are Mexicans immigrants trying to cross the borders and smuggle drugs. If you call it generalizing then Filipinos are also generalizing China.

Saudi Arabia Is Building A 600-Mile 'Great Wall' To Shield Itself From ISIS

http://www.businessinsider.com/saudi-ar ... sis-2015-1

Wealthy Arab states also doesn’t accepts refugees because of security threats but
everybody is silent. when Trump does the same thing leftist called him racist, fascist, islamophobe :lol: and these wealthy Arab states shares the same language, culture and religion with these refugees. Trump is just learning from what’s happening in Europe

Kung si Trump temporary ban lang sa Iran, si Hillary naman war ang plano sa Iran pag naging presidente :lol:



pero ok lang sa karamihan kasi si Hillary nagsabi. pag si Trump nagsabi grabe violent reaction ng mga tao.

Saudi Arabia ‘deports 40,000 Pakistani workers over terror fears’
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has expelled almost 40,000 Pakistani migrant workers in the last four months, local media has reported.

Over 39,000 people have been deported since October 2016 over visa violations and security concerns, the Saudi Gazette reported, citing unnamed interior ministry officials. As well as crimes including drug trafficking, forgery and theft, an unknown number of those removed from the country were suspected to have links to Isis and other extremist groups, the paper said.

Saudi itself is deporting their fellow muslims. pag si Trump magpapa deport ng mga muslims generalization as terrorists :lol:
