Sri Lanka’s economic crisis: An Import-Export Perspective

[indizombie]

Myanmar’s economy is on the verge of collapse, though the military junta is not forthcoming with data about foreign exchange reserves. But panic has gripped Myanmar over the growing likelihood of a Sri Lanka-type economic collapse after the country’s central bank called on all citizens this month to convert their foreign currency holdings and remittances received from abroad into the local currency kyat. Myanmar’s foreign reserves are believed to have dwindled sharply, and foreign debt has escalated as Western sanctions following the Feb 2021 coup and the raging Covid pandemic have adversely impacted the nation’s economy.

Headlines: U.S. to send 15th military package to Ukraine, bringing total aid in Russia war to $7 billion

— Overall, the U.S. has sent about $7.3 billion in aid to Ukraine since the war began in late February.

Biden is set to announce a new security assistance package worth $400 million for Ukraine.

Which is about $40 billion in aid …. When you add other country’s contributions.

This is enough to aide DRC, Sri Lanka, Yemen, Afghanistan, Venezuela, Syria, & The U.S.

But this whole production is not about aiding a humanitarian crisis… this is about U.S/European corruption.

…. And Frankly they can care less if the rest of us rot…

Sri Lankan protestors are built different. 😂😂😂

[Video description: Facebook video showing a scene of complete chaos and screaming, suffused in clouds of tear gas. A young protestor in shorts with a backpack picks a smoking tear gas cannister off the ground and strides with it along a wall of iron bars, holding out the billowing stream of gas at the cops assembled on the other side. Someone behind the camera eggs him on in Sinhala. The kid places the emptied cannister under a hedge behind a cop in riot gear and runs. The camera pans back to see the canninister thrown high into the air, sailing into a clump of trees in the park beyond./VD]

(PSA: do NOT pick up tear gas cannisters, they are searing hot!)

Yellowstone Flooding: Rebuilding could take years, cost billions (AP)

“Floodwaters this week wiped out numerous bridges, washed out miles of roads and closed the park as it approached peak tourist season during its 150th anniversary celebration. Nearby communities were swamped and hundreds of homes flooded as the Yellowstone River and its tributaries raged. The scope of the damage is still being tallied by Yellowstone officials, but based on other national park disasters, it could take years and cost upwards of $1 billion to rebuild in an environmentally sensitive landscape where construction season only runs from the spring thaw until the first snowfall.”

Bill Cosby: Civil jury finds Bill Cosby sexually abused teenager in 1975 (AP)

“Jurors at a civil trial found Tuesday that Bill Cosby sexually abused a 16-year-old girl at the Playboy Mansion in 1975. The Los Angeles County jury delivered the verdict in favor of Judy Huth, who is now 64, and awarded her $500,000. She said the fact that jurors believed her story meant more than the sum of money or the fact that she didn’t win punitive damages.”
