Land of the Rising Sun

Beautiful is the word I would use to describe Hokkaido. The Sceneries are absolutely stunning! STUNNING!!STUNNING!!! Can you imagine the pure mountain air heavy with fog , heavy snow powdery covering the fields and buildings of an amazing nation. I had high feelings with so many positive emotions during the trip. As the pilot started to give an announcement for safe landing and the plane descended on Chitose Airport on an extremely cold and dark afternoon, I began to feel a sense of achievement. Come on,It’s Hokkaido! Since the 311 tsunami occurred in Sendai and Fukushima the prices of tour packages had been lowered and my parents thought that this would be an opportunity to bring the entire family here. The trip covers places such as Otaru, Noboribetsu, Sapporo City and some other places but i can’t remember. It was in total a 6 day trip and I was able to feel what’s it like to be in Japan and of course the beautiful snow. Apparently, a lot of them live a stressful life and have to rely on 3-4 generations to pay off their housing loan debt! However, Japanese are generally very polite and kind people. They have good moral and mostly because they were instilled to have good moral since they were young. Hokkaido is in the northen part of Japan and exports high amount of top quality seafood so obviously, I was privileged to eat all of them. Kidding! It was the only nasty weather of the whole trip, snowing and windy. The ice was still spectacular though. Apart from that, i finally had the guts to run naked infront of many people because their hot springs are like the best all across the world with high amounts of sulphur which is somehow good for health. So it was definitely worth stripping. It was quite challenging when u’re doing it outdoors cause you have to adapt to the sudden change of weather. Just try to picture yourself running out of your house naked when it’s -6 degrees outside .I soon became an onsen addict.Usually when the snow is heavy and the sky is dark, u’ll feel a a bit depressed but it certainly wasn’t the case here.Although Hokkaido was freezing cold,the sun was shining really brightly.As you know,Japan is known as the country of the rising sun. So i wasn’t depressed at all.I walked around Sapporo city and realised just how systematic they are in terms of planning a city,underground trains,safety measures and all that stuff.Hokkaido has the best quality for skiing that attracts skiers from all over the world. Travelling is not merely about playing but it’s also about education.I learnt how put on and take off the skiing equipments and skied like an idiot.It was difficult to even take a picture because it was cold and our gloves were just annoying as hell.As far as i could remember,I lied and said i was a year older to be 18 to experience snow mobile.Felt a lil bit like James Bond. Never estimate young people,i completed the entire journey without getting anyone hurt! Although my finger hurt just a little.I also enjoyed the breathtaking scenery along the ravines.I was so happy.Seafood here is amazing,Ice-creams are amazing here,scenery is amazing,the girls here are AMAZING TOO!!!I saw this stunning cute girl with her mum and little sister returning from a Japanese temple and became moody the whole day.All i could remember is that her mum drives a blue car! Well, girls come and go but PIZZA IS FOREVER!

1911

Chinese government paying respect to Sun

Xinhai Revolution

So i just came back from the cinema watching jackie chan's 100th movie and is having the 'kick' to write about the chinese revolution.There's not even a slightest doubt that China's few thousand years of history is one of the best throughout the whole world.One of favourites is the 1911 Revolution.The reason that triggered the revolution was largely due to a corrupted Qing government, and the fact that the Han Chinese (which comprised 90% of the population) where resentful towards a government dominated by the Manchus (who were an ethnic minority). Besides that, the people were extremely pissed off and frustrated with the government's incapablitiy to stand up and restrain the interventions of Japan particularly the Westerners.The Qing government was borrowing a substantial amount of money from banks in Europe at the people's expense.Worse still, they are using the money againts them.Qing government bought weapons using taxpayers payer money and fought against the rebels that were led by revolutionaries.A large increase in population, people paying high taxes to powerful dictators, people out of work, a country totally out of touch,lots of torturing and depression and most of all, a nation living under a greedy dictator. This civil unrest, encouraged by the revolutionary and political ideas of Sun Yat-sen, who was apparently a chinese doctor, led to a desire to abolish the Qing dynasty and form a republic.In a republic government, there will not be any kings or emperors, and the country will be led by a president together with his ministers in cabinet.Singapore, France , Russia etc are examples of republic country presently.Do you believe that there is democracy in royalties?

The Sickle and The Hammer - The good guys or bad guys?

From Left : Karl Marx , Vladimir Lenin, Mao Zedong

I could recall the days when i was in Vietnam for a holiday trip.The holiday was however only in the northern part of the country.It was Hanoi,the region that was supported by China politically and militarily in the unforgettable vietnam war.It was a war in the 70's that caused tens of thousands of people to die, many people to be wounded and many people to lose their close families, neighbors and friends.And automatically when you think of Hanoi,you tend to think about Ho Chi Minh too.A monument to Ho Chin Minh was erected in Hanoi.He is still remembered well and his stories and ideologies are still taught in history books today.Also,he earned respect of the vietnamese people.He declared independence for Vietnam in 2nd of September,1945 and ultimately became the president of north vietnam.He was a communist leader,followed and given much support by many of his followers.Being so young,i didn't know what communism was all about.The only thing that caught my attention was the sickle and the hammer.But people are taught to hate it.

I've always questioned myself whether a government that practices communism would eventually work out and be successful.If it was a great idea, why would people want to escape from their country? People are getting in boats and risking their lives to escape Cuba can be an example.The idea is great but people are just not ready for it.Communism isnt bad though it sounds bad,it is just a political system.No one knows because communism has never been realized on this earth. It may have been tried, but it's failure was caused by ignoring certain economic principles that Karl Marx stated were necessary prior to the creation of communism; namely, there must be a capitalist foundation and socialist institutions in place prior to communism. It is unfortunate that none of those countries claiming to be communist have had both and most have had neither.

Communism is not where there's a leader or a dictator.A dictator is definitely impossible to be related to communist. Communism is about zero government. The moment you add government, it's not longer communist. Countries such as North Korea are not even communistic. If you break down what they're doing piece by piece, they are not communist.Moreover, You do get the chance to choose your future in a communist society. You do get things like human rights, way more than you would ever get in a capitalist society. You do get free speech, way more than you would ever get in a capitalist society.Look at Egypt ,they're not even communist.But their people are killed mercilessly just merely because of freedom of speech and peaceful demonstration.

Communism as an idea is supposed to allow everyone to have what they need to survive regardless of the work they do.Plus, no one can become filthy rich because, ideally, wealth is spread evenly to the people. The positives of that is that people who are too old, too young, or too sick to work will not go without.The negatives of that system is that some people will take advantage of the system and not work although they are able to work and just live off the basics the government provides. A lot of people think this system is bad because they don't want their wealth spread around, they believe they deserve and have earned luxury.People like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet will never appear in communist countries.

Above all,communism isn't a good nor a bad thing.It depends on how you look at it.We will never be able to understand it.

Say Goodbye to AAA Rating

This is one of the worst days in American history. Unfortunately America has lost it's AAA rating from Standard & Poor's. FIRST TIME IN HISTORY! Does this crisis make them another Greece? The world is undergoing a crisis in how we run our nations.Spending is totally out of control, and neither party in Washington DC is willing to do anything to change that reality. It isn't just all about stuff like debts and economies but also it is about corruption, and identity. What we face is a crisis in effective leadership. And it's happening world-wide.Places such as China, Japan and Europe, the United States ( which is happening on a large scale ), and it's also happening on a smaller scale in dozens of other nations.Recently, China bluntly criticized the United States after the superpower's credit rating was downgraded, saying that the "good old days" of borrowing are over.American politicians should really wake up, especially for the current US secretary of treasury, who have been telling lies all the way through.
