Dear brothers and sisters,
How to have a nice day?
Say this when you wake up in the morning: “I am at peace today. Thank you, Heaven and Earth / God / Buddha / Jesus.”
So easy.
If you do this for a month to a year, you’ll become more peaceful.
Try.
Have a nice day.

People from abroad bring brains and energy, but there’s always the risk of a backlash.

Governments the world over are grappling with how to make immigration work for their economies without fanning political flames. Nativism helped crystallize support for Brexit in the U.K. and almost cost German Chancellor Angela Merkel a fourth term. President Trump says the U.S. immigration system is “broken”—and while some of his opponents may grudgingly agree with that, there is little common ground on how to repair it.
Dear brothers and sisters,
How to have peace?
Loving people.
Yes, loving people, we are peaceful.
Loving both the fool and wise man.
Loving both the poor and the corrupt.
Loving both killers and the pure in heart.
Loving both evil people and good people.
Loving all people.
Loving people, we are peaceful.
Have a peaceful day.

Hanoi’s first metro line, the Cat Linh-Ha Dong route, has begun a 20-day commercial operation run for inspection purposes.
The trial will check all aspects or the line’s operations, from functioning stations with staff on duty at operation rooms and ticket booths. Electronic signs and loudspeakers are turned on to instruct metro commuters. Six to nine trains will operate on the route.
Hanoi, 24 October 2019 – The Mekong Delta is one of the most vulnerable deltas to climate change, particularly sea level rise. However, the social and economic developments in the region also have a significant impact on the land. Urbanisation, land-use transformation, intensification of economic activities and human protection against natural disasters has led to the large-scale extraction of fresh groundwater, heavy loading of infrastructure, upstream dykes and dam construction as well as loss of habitat and biodiversity.
Wind energy could cover more than one third of global power needs in 2050 reducing global carbon emissions by a quarter, new IRENA report finds
Beijing, China, 21 October 2019 – Asia could grow its share of installed capacity for onshore wind from 230 Gigawatt (GW) in 2018 to over 2600 GW by 2050, a new report by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) finds. By that time, the region would become a global leader in wind, accounting for more than 50 per cent of all onshore and over 60 per cent of all offshore wind capacity installed globally.

A 66-year-old widow collects very moderate toll fees for a one-km path she and her husband built on their own six years ago.
They call her Mrs. BOT, but as an endearment, not a derogatory epithet. The term, build-own-transfer, otherwise carries the connotation of many expensive toll fee stations along Vietnamese roads.
Mrs. BOT of the southernmost province of Ca Mau is a total different story.

The Chinese geological survey vessel Haiyang Dizhi 8.
A Chinese oil survey vessel that had been operating illegally in Vietnam’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and Continental Shelf for more than three months made its exit from Vietnam’s waters on Thursday, Reuters reported.
The Chinese vessel, the Haiyang Dizhi 8, was tracked speeding away from Vietnam’s EEZ towards China on Thursday under the escort of at least two Chinese ships, Reuters reported, citing data from Marine Traffic, a website that tracks vessels.

Jesus,
Look!
The news is that VN is worrying because of low fertility rate.
Oh my God! Why worry?
Too many ethnic minority children
who don’t have enough to eat, wear and learn.
If we take care of them,
though we have low fertility rate,
we would still have enough intellectuals for our country.
Why worry about the size of the population?
We should focus on the quality of the population
and our ethnic minority brothers and sisters.
Right, Jesus?
Amen.
