For context according to this link they need 39 B USD, and this “dim-sum” bond is part of the Indonesian diversification strategy.

"According to the budget plan, the Government aims to raise 642.6 trillion rupiah (39 billion USD) this year to cover the deficit. This year, Indonesia has issued many other types of foreign currency bonds such as: Dual currency bonds (USD and Euro) in January and October, raising a total of more than 3 billion USD; Islamic bonds (sukuk) in July; Japanese Yen samurai bonds in June (worth 103.2 billion Yen); Australian dollar (AUD) kangaroo bonds in August (worth 800 million AUD).,

Lula’s been definitely been cosing up to Putler.

can see how that can be taken as support for the aggressor.

Lula changed his stance on Ukraine later, but in May 2022, Lula placed blame on Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, saying “This guy is as responsible as Putin for the war”. Lula also repeatedly attacked NATO and the European Union as having caused the war. He accused NATO of “claiming for itself the right to install military bases in the vicinity of another country”

Also, since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Brazil has tripled its trade with Russia. Brazil has become one of the largest buyers of Russian diesel and fertilizers. In 2023, Brazil imported Russian fertilizers worth $3.5 billion

Interesting article. It would be good news if extreme cravings could be (co)regulated via a new or more specific medicine. I’m a bit wary this being an Ozempic PR campaign, but it doesn’t seem that way.

The Gen Z protests are really gaining momentum. Check this map:

Is there a Madagascar Gen Z protest as well?

Yes, I get your point , though you make some colorful extrapolations. I’m not saying I’d be agreeing to others morality or condoning differences in our own morality, because they are all different, everybody has their own views. What I don’t like is when people claim the higher moral ground, without understanding any of the other’s cultural context and by proclaiming their culture should be like ours. Other cultures are other cultures. You can disagree with (some) of their practices, and equally other cultures will probably say similar things of yours.

But when femicide. and domestic abuse in the West is on the rise it’s an increasing problem. So, that’s why I said; maybe lets focus first on fixing our own shit, before pointing the finger on someone else.

Tnx, I wasn’t aware of this context.

Corporations are responsible for a vast majority of the waste

I don’t really understand this recurring theme in this context, Can someone explain to me why this is relevant?

Afaik, this isn’t a discussion in my country, since most people (should) know that already. This article triggered me, beacuse I want to lower my personal energy usage. Many companies in Europe who were energy wasteful and high energy users (like some chemical, steel, or aluminium plants) needed to close after the Russian invasion in 2022 and the then extreem high energy prices. Those that survived, are still struggling to this day.

What was the source of that energy loss?

No idea tbh. I tried to figure it out myself first, then I had two electricians independently checking it.

And their conclusion was that they didn’t know, and that the 5% was sort of normal. I even had my electricity meter recalibrated by the grid company. I was afraid somone was taping, but no… It still could’ve been the electricity meter ( which was like only 10 yo, I looked up its specs and readings). Humidity, Magnetism and Radio signals might effect the readings, under circumstances. So to be" safe", I have now a newer smart electricicity meter.

I had my old house tested ( after I mostly had it all rewired), by various electricians for energy losses. And they claimed that there was always some unaccountable energy loss ( 5% iirc).

Even if it is, this pales in comparison to corporate energy use.

Yeah I agree, I later saw that the article focuses on households, which usually account for like 20% of a countries energy usage.

Honestly, I associated the articles headline and photo to energy losses in the Grid by keeping energy online. So Grid losses, and the application of smart grid functions will save way more then 5% of a ca 20% household energy usage. In this article they talk about a 4-5% overall country gain, for example

Anyone who can confirm if these figures are correct?

This should not come as a shock to anyone. FIFA is corrupt AF

Yips. I wonder how many corpses they’ll find in the FIFA closet when they are properly investigated.

Yeah let’s all" civilize" all those other barbaric " non-progressive" countries and cultures, by using and imposing ours via imperialistic agendas/s.

Add: Maybe just maybe, let them find their own way, and just focus on what you can do in your own country first.

And also, just to be clear, I’m against domestic violence ofc.

You are not discussing in good faith.

Added. Ah I see , you edited your original comment I reacted to, by adding a whole new context; after I had reacted. Talking about good faith. Well, whatever.

And so do you.

So they did.

use your brain instead of “factcheckers”

Now you sound pedantic.
