Shangri-la Dialogue Entering Mid Life Crisis according to this Author!🤣👎

🙈🙈🤣😍😍

CHINA,Russia and IRAN the Moat important Country in the World Now didn't Attend the Forum!!💪😍💪😍💪😍😍😍💐

Why Should They Attend When this Forum is Overwhelmed by the Aggressors who KILLED MORE than 100,000 in GAZA and Supported by the HOST Country Who Preach Rule of Laws But NEVER Sanctions theM!!👎🐕🇺🇲🐕🐕🇺🇲👎😎😎😎👎

... Read moreHaving followed the Shangri-La Dialogue for several years, I personally feel that it is at a pivotal crossroads. Originally conceived as a platform to foster security dialogue in the Asia-Pacific region, it now seems to struggle with diminishing participation from critical global players such as China, Russia, and Iran. Their notable absence signals a lack of trust or interest in this forum amid rising geopolitical tensions. The criticism that the dialogue has become a choreographed event with participants delivering rehearsed statements rather than engaging in candid discussions resonates strongly. From my experience attending related conferences, there is often a noticeable tension between the desire for diplomatic decorum and the need to address harsh realities directly, especially concerning ongoing conflicts like the crisis in Gaza. Moreover, the forum's host country is perceived to selectively apply principles like rule of law, which undermines the legitimacy of the dialogue in some eyes. This perceived bias discourages some nations from engaging sincerely. For the Shangri-La Dialogue to overcome what some call a 'mid-life crisis,' it must evolve by encouraging more genuine, inclusive dialogue that accounts for the diverse security concerns of all regional actors. In practical terms, this could mean expanding the agenda to tackle contemporary issues openly and promoting sanctions or accountability measures where appropriate. It might also involve creating smaller, track-two meetings to build trust among skeptical parties before larger summit discussions. Based on what I have observed, revitalizing the Shangri-La Dialogue will require bold diplomacy paired with clear ground rules that foster transparency and mutual respect among nations. Overall, while the forum’s current state may appear bleak, there's still potential for it to act as a meaningful platform if these challenges are confronted head-on rather than ignored.

Not the kind of service yard you’ve seen before
Designed with functionality in mind 🤩! Originally we were quoted $3000 to do carpentry in the service yard. I decided to thrift furniture on Carousell and buy a dishwasher stand from Taobao, cutting our furniture cost to almost 10% of the original quote! All in all, I think we did good in hav
