Brands in Vietnam are hiring celebrities or ‘social media influencers’ to promote their products via the Facebook Live feature, a new form of commercials allowing them to defy both the advertising and tax rules.

Jesus,
You were born and placed in a manger.*
A manger was a feeding trough,
typically made of stone.
You were born in a place for animals.
Dirty, smelly, unhealthy. Continue reading Prayer 327

Ho Chi Minh City is facing numerous difficulties as the population is rising sharply.
Congestion in HCM City
The population has grown from three million after 1975 to 8.4 million. Another three million people from other provinces are studying and working in HCM City. As of now, the city has 7.6 million motorbikes, 700,000 cars and about one million other vehicles from other provinces. About 1,000 new motorbikes are registered each month.
According to the Department of Transport, the city’s 37.7 million square metres of road aren’t capable of supporting this number of vehicles, let alone maintain a decent traffic flow.

It became a hashtag, a movement, a reckoning. But it began, as great social change nearly always does, with individual acts of courage. The actor who went public with the story of movie mogul Harvey Weinstein’s “coercive bargaining” in a Beverly Hills hotel suite two decades earlier. The strawberry picker who heard that story and decided to tell her own. The young engineer whose blog post about the frat-boy culture at Silicon Valley’s highest-flying startup prompted the firing of its founder and 20 other employees. The California lobbyist whose letter campaign spurred more than 140 women in politics to demand that state government “no longer tolerate the perpetrators or enablers” of sexual misconduct. A music superstar’s raw, defiant court testimony about the disc jockey who groped her.
Developed on a 540ha site in the East Dam region of Bac Lieu province, Vietnam, the 99.2MW Bac Lieu near-shore wind farm is Asia’s first offshore wind farm in the Mekong Delta region.
The phased development of the Bac Lieu wind farm included the installation of 62 1.6MW wind turbines, supplied by General Electric (GE). Construction commenced in September 2010 and the first phase was grid-connected in May 2013. The wind farm became fully operational in January 2016.
Jesus,
Today is the weekend.
Let’s go on a date.
I’ll make omelet, coffee and orange juice.
Done!
Eating with you makes me glad. Continue reading Prayer 326
Làm sao để có hàng chục triệu views giả trên youtube
Làm sao để có views giả trên youtube và làm sao để nhận ra view giả?
If you poke around the microjob website Fiverr.com you’ll discover that you can have thousands and thousands of “views” delivered to the youtube video of your choosing for just a few bucks. But don’t get excited; you can’t just buy youtube super stardom. When you order one of these gigs you’re actually buying hits that are disguised to look like views. So 15,000 real people will NOT be watching your video. Your view count is simply going to get inflated by 15,000. Some of these bogus views are generated by bots but in many cases hackers will secretly embed a video on a popular web page. Every time someone accesses that page the video automatically plays….albeit silently and invisibly.

Jesus,
When I fear to face you in silence,
please say to me,
“Take heart, girl,(1)
believe in me.”(2)
I believe in you.
I believe I am healed at that moment.
Amen.

The elderly population in Việt Nam. — VNS Infographic
HÀ NỘI —According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), Việt Nam is among the countries with the fastest aging rate in the world. This phenomenon has widespread and long-term impacts on the country, requiring comprehensive proactive policies for the elderly.
In 2017, Việt Nam has an estimated 10 million older adults. This number is expected to rise to 19 million by 2030 and 28 million by 2050, according to information made available in a workshop held earlier this month on the implementation of the national action plan on health care for the elderly.
Beijing is determined to shape a global order in which its interests are respected because of its disproportionate power relative to its neighbours, says James R Keith.

WASHINGTON: The essential question of leadership in Asia comes into focus as we reflect on China’s ambitious aspirations enunciated at the 19th Communist Party Congress and on the heels of President Donald Trump’s long trek through Asia this month.
The question was put succinctly by Singapore Prime Minister Lee during his visitto the United States, when he asked an American business audience: “Do you still believe that you have the most to gain from an interdependent world, open exchanges, and multilateral roles?”
Jesus,
You say,
“I am the resurrection and the life.
The one who believes in me will live, even though they die.”*
I confirm this is true.
For by believing in you, I have life in your name.
Please give me the faith
so that I can believe in you every moment.
Amen.
