State-corporate nexus media really biting now. Previous Govts were happy and encouraged 60 Minutes propaganda coverage on foreign countries. Now, they want to clamp down on domestic coverage too.

they should've put a sniper on the other side too

Exportia is exporting for Importia's funny numbers, not just any country's funny numbers. There is a hierarchy on which countries' funny numbers are most desirable, and third-world countries are in the lowest tier. If Exportia decides to accept third world numbers at a rate which the people in the third world can afford to buy, then yes their workers in the export sector will stay employed and third world gets real goods and services with the Exportia's Central Bank accumulating numbers of the third world countries.

Bangladesh is having unrest once again, right-wing extremists burn down press buildings after a reactionary "student leader" who helped overthrow Hasina Government in 2024 was assassinated.

Assuming Russia won't pay which is pretty much a given and Russia's reserves can't be used to repay, Ukraine will be on hook for billions of Euros of loans which it can't pay even at zero interest since its a foreign currency loan far exceeding its capacity.

160% is ridiculous, they should taper up. unfortunately, they have a very real USD shortage and subsidized fuel does create excess demand. by cutting subsidies they are compressing imports and lowering purchasing power.

is this good? no, but they have limited choices regardless of gov. but given the neoliberal regime, workers will be screwed over, capitalists will make money and economy doesn't improve much.

loosening the exchange rate regime.

i don't think this is necessarily bad, fixed (heavily managed) exchange rate results in excess imports, capital controls can limit it but unless its really tight there will be wasteful leakages, you are basically subsidizing non-essential imports with a fixed rate regime. with the economy having a current/trade deficit, they are forced to borrow from abroad (likely in foreign currencies) to maintain the fixed rate.

Yeah I don't know what Taiwan has to do with the comm. Random stupid article completely irrelevant to it, then they blame those who don't agree.

Taiwan’s story is the mirror image. Twenty-three million people built a world-class economy and a resilient democracy by pairing technological excellence with open debate and free exchange.

Literally a dictatorship not that long ago.
