A major Asia-Pacific summit’s failure to agree on a communique resulted from certain countries “excusing” protectionism, a top Chinese diplomat said, in a veiled criticism of Washington that further sours the tone of China-U.S. ties ahead of a G20 meet.

Jesus,
Walking barefoot is great.
Dried leaves and colorful flowers
under my feet,
above my head
and all around me.
Warm sunlight,
cold paving stones,
fresh air,
a monk is chanting
and I am walking. Continue reading Prayer 562

(CNN) Almost four decades on from the collapse of Pol Pot’s tyrannical communist regime, an international tribunal has ruled that the Khmer Rouge committed genocide, a landmark verdict that is hoped will bring closure to millions of Cambodians.
More than 1.7 million people, or approximately a fifth of Cambodia’s population, are believed to have died from forced labor, starvation and execution under the Khmer Rouge which ruled the country between 1975 and 1979.

A Cambodian man sits in Choeung Ek Killing Fields near a tree that was used to beat children to death under the Khmer Rouge regime, on August 6, 2014 in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
Jesus,
I wish
monks, nuns, priests, pastors,…
are teachers in our schools,
autonomous schools.
Our schools have not spirituality.
So our schools
and our society
are at the bottom of the spiritual world.
I ask you,
please raise our society up.
Amen.

Giêsu ơi,

Jesus,
Our society is at the bottom of the spiritual world
but I know our society is going up.
Though going slowly,
to go up is to go up.
As long as you and I are one,
I listen to your whispering,
“Behold, I make all things new.”*
Amen.

The continued existence of large stockpiles of legal raw ivory in the country is hampering China’s promises to save the elephant, says .

Nature – The fight against the illegal ivory trade had some success last month with the arrest of a Chinese woman alleged to have smuggled more than 700 elephant tusks from Tanzania. Ivory is a particular prize in China, where it has been carved into ornaments, chopsticks and jewellery for more than 3,000 years.

In contrast to the wealth of information about the Jesuits in China and Japan, the parallel story of the Jesuit presence in Vietnam has received modest scholarly attention until recent decades. Even though the Portuguese and Italian Jesuits were instrumental in establishing Christian communities in both the ancient states of Cochinchina and Tonkin that make up the present-day Vietnam, their contribution were not properly acknowledged. Part of the problem is due to the fact that prior to 1945, Vietnam was known to the Western world largely as part of French Indochina, and thus Vietnamese Catholicism was seen in the same light—as an extension of French Catholicism. For three hundred years, from the 1660s to the 1960s, the Catholic Church in Vietnam was largely under the care of the Paris Foreign Mission Society (Missions Étrangères de Paris or MEP).
Jesus,
I wish
our people
from the young to the old
understand our history.
To understand our history
means to understand our ancestors.
To understand and to love.
How can we say we love people
when we don’t love our ancestors?
Amen.

Greentechmedia – Wood Mackenzie unveils new forecast figures for renewables in the Asia-Pacific region.
OCTOBER 24, 2018

Cumulative solar PV capacity in Asia-Pacific will increase by 60 percent by 2023.
The Asia-Pacific region is set to install 55 percent of all the world’s new PV in the next five years, new figures show.
The data, from Wood Mackenzie Power & Renewables, shows demand across the region holding steady over the next half decade, even though this year will see a dip in PV installation rates for the first time ever.
Jesus,
Which of my prayers is the important prayer?
I think it’s Prayer 413.*
“Please take all things in my heart, mind and soul.
I wish they are empty
so that you can put anything you want into them.“
Why important?
Because it’s the prayer to be one with you.
Most of my prayers are similar to Prayer 413,
because to be one with you is important to me.
Amen.
PTH
