Died suddenly
MALAYSIA – Dr. Chai Koh Meow, a Senior Assistant Director at Malaysia’s Ministry of Health has died 9 days after receiving his booster shot last Tuesday. The 58-year-old unexpectedly passed away in his sleep on November 17th. Dr. Chai had always been known to be in good health and was present for duty as usual at the MOH on November 16th. Authorities are now investigating if the cause of his death was related to the vaccine.
The Ministry of Health has urged members of the public to refrain from making any speculations on the Senior Assistant Director’s death.

A report into Australian media coverage of COVID-19 by the University of Canberra’s News and Media Research Centre states that: “News media agendas are… strongly tied to both the political climate and sensitive to audience demand. These dynamics contributed to two characteristics of early coverage… a strong onus on relaying official information… as the press acted as a ‘loyal facilitator’ to relay official information and guidelines… news coverage produced stories that presented following government advice as both a process of ‘pulling together’ and as an individual responsibility of Australian citizens.” In other words, the media acted as a propaganda unit for the government when it came to COVID-19.

The storms of the Dust Bowl are legendary, epitomized in the April 14, 1935 ‘duster’ which gave the date the name “Black Sunday.” Despite the fame of the Dust Bowl, the recovery from it is much less well known. The History Guy remembers a story of the massive undertaking that changed the relationship of Americans to their land. It is a moving story of appropriate land use and stewardship that deserves to be remembered.

Kyle Rittenhouse Not Guilty Verdict Breaks Hollywood: ‘I Weep for This Country’
Report comment
The Rittenhouse verdict is a symbol of hope. The hope that there are people (the jurors) who despite the threats to their own lives and safety followed the evidence and it led them to the Not Guilty verdict.
For Kyle Rittenhouse, knowing he did what he did in self defence and was thus, not guilty, wouldn’t have helped knowing the leftie public mood. The jurors would have been under a great deal of pressure. To stand up against that and vote to acquit him, makes them a group of courageous people.

From the RT Op-Ed
‘…How has Victoria come to find itself in this sad and parlous situation – one that resembles the irreversible division and chaos that now characterises politics in the United States? Perhaps the answer lies in the so-called “progressive” nature of the Andrews government.
It is not a Labor government in the traditional sense at all – it has long ignored the interests of its former working-class base. Nor is it genuinely “progressive” in the traditional political sense. It is a government that exclusively promotes the interests of the globalised elites that rule most Western democracies, and it is fanatically committed to implementing the various woke ideologies adhered to by those elites.
In this respect, it closely resembles the American Democratic Party – and in precisely the same way that globalised elites in America and the Democrats created the politics of division in that country, so too has the Andrews government gone down the same path in Victoria.
Unlike in America, this process is in its very early stages in Victoria – but the tell-tale signs are there. Victoria is a deeply divided state – economically, politically and ideologically. The so-called “culture wars,” for example, are fought with particular virulence in Victoria…’

Piers Akerman:
The extraordinary over-reaction by ABC chair Ita Buttrose to a proposed Senate inquiry into its farcical internal complaints handling procedure suggests that there is more, much more, within the taxpayer-funded organisation that needs examination.
Any casual listener to the ABC’s news and current affairs programs would be well aware that the views and opinions proffered by the overwhelming majority of guests on topical issues are from a deep Green-Left perspective.
That same listener would also be unable to escape the conclusion that such sentiments from that end of the political spectrum are wholly acceptable to the most senior ABC presenters and greeted with approval.
Should any opposing voice be permitted on the ABC’s airwaves they are inevitably met with ridicule, scorn and unrelenting interruption.
Such is the norm with the ABC because its staffers permit not a single conservative presenter to host a mainstream prime time program.
The institution is a haven for the so-called progressive and as such is in lockstep with organisations like the Guardian, Crikey and GetUp.
As a regular commentator on the Insiders Sunday morning television program from its inception until the Gillard government, I watched as host Barrie Cassidy increasingly tilted the program further and further to toward the ALP and unfortunately lost much of the objectivity he had initially displayed.
Famously, Cassidy and his Left-wing guests chortled when I suggested that the Labor Party’s plans to institute a form of government control on the media was a dangerous step towards the slippery slope of censorship as practised in totalitarian nations globally. A video clip of that exchange still exists in the ethereal vaults of YouTube and is worth watching.
My experiences as a guest on another ABC flagship program, Q&A, only further demonstrated the commitment the broadcaster had to the Left. Not only were conservative guests routinely subjected to ridicule from whoever was hosting the program but the specially selected audience members were coached and had their questions vetted to fit the ABC-approved ideology.
Labor politicians and trade unionists appearing as panellists were feted on their arrival at the Ultimo studio such that then ACTU boss Sharan Burrow (now head of the international trade union movement) was given her own dressing room with her name on the door on one occasion when I was on the same program. Other guests made do in the communal make-up area.
The wishes of Left-wing guests such as infamous John Pilger were met with alacrity, conservatives were treated condescendingly.
On one occasion, after I had been told I would never be reinvited to appear on Q&A, a staffer called me at short notice to beg me to join the program the following evening as Pilger was to appear to promote yet another collection of his anti-capitalist, anti-Western maunderings and, concerned with the possibility that the ABC might be seen to be providing the platform for his marketing ploy, would I join the panel so the organisation would not appear biased?
As a favour to the staffer, a relative of a newspaper executive who helped me when I was starting out, I agreed.
Pilger was nowhere to be seen when I arrived at the studio and I was told he had pulled out at the last minute because he wasn’t going to be grilled on his views by someone from the other side of politics!
I haven’t been asked back, I doubt whether I would appear as the show is as predictably tedious as Paul Barry’s Media Watch. Regular readers of this column know I rarely inject myself into this space as I am not a fan of the personality cults that some commentators embrace. No red bandanas here, folks.
I’ve broken my own rule today because I used to admire the ABC and over my life have had many friends working as reporters and managers within the organisation.
Today, its news and current affairs programs are however beyond a joke.
AM on morning radio to the 7.30 Report on evening television are abysmal. Ita Buttrose has been captured by those who run the sheltered workshop and has lost credibility.
Register the ABC as a political lobby group and stop its funding. Programs such as music and agricultural reports could get some support or rely on subscriptions.
Otherwise, close the show down.

Ita Buttrose was given that job when she was around 75. Prestige and all probably very important. Feather in the cap type job as she goes through a certain time of life. Still being important, special, a someone.
She won’t rock the boat otherwise those left/extreme lefty types who “rule” the ABC will shaft her somehow.

Being able to locate and bring Charles home to his loved ones was an honor and a humbling experience that we will forever be grateful for and never forget.
