Remember Adam Baba, and other reporters who were attacked by followers linked to the ruling party. Salute to all reporters for their professionalism in covering the event.
A fight broke out as Penang Chief Minister, Lim Guan Eng walked down from the stage to meet Anti Lynas Save Malaysia supporters after his speech to about 500 people at Speakers Corner, Esplanade, Penang, this evening.
The person injured is a reporter by the name of Adam Baba who was treated at the General Hospital for head and hand injuries.
Video by Jimmy Leow, Citizen Journalist (CJ.MY)
The peaceful anti Lynas rally in Penang to support the Kuantan people in their movement to stop the Lynas building rare earth processing plant in Kuantan. The said plant will be the world largest, and the output will place them as largest in the rare earth global market, able to challenge the leadership of China. But the said plant was not able to provide a solution for disposal of radioactive waste.
A bigger Anti Lynas Rally was held in Kuantan on the same day 26-2-2012 , but held earlier. Kuantan rally was held peacefully. For your information, Penang state was ruled by opposition party. The opposing group who support Lynas, was from NGO who support the ruling party and the youth group of ruling party. The use of violence to a peaceful people rally was a mockery to democracy of Malaysia.
Remember Adam Baba(the reporter), remember Kuantan's Lynas Processing Plant, Malaysia...remember ugly incident at Anti Lynas Rally in Penang, Malaysia.
Shame to democracy in Malaysia, this time demon really go crazy....
Let the people and the world know the true face of democracy in Malaysia

Emmenecker Challenge
The Adam Emmenecker sandwich at Jethro's BBQ is the largest in Des Moines. Named after the Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year for 2008 this colossal sandwich is one serious player. It has become so popular at Jethro's that there is now a challenge to eat it if you dare. If you can tackle it within 15 minutes you will be properly recognized at Jethro's as a MVP and make the Wall of Fame. However, if you do try it and don't finish, you'll be relegated to the Wall of Shame.
Adam Emmenecker sandwich has been nominated as the Greatest Sports Sandwich in America for ESPN's FANWICH contest on Facebook. Show America that the Adam Emmenecker sandwich is worthy of this national recognition by logging on to Facebook and voting for your favorite BBQ restaurant and our infamous sandwich which is named after former Drake Bulldog basketball star, Adam Emmenecker.
The Missouri Valley Conference Most Valuable Player of 2008 loves this sandwich. It's big... "really big..." just like all of those "really big" shots Adam sank in the Bulldogs' magical MVC Championship Season of 2008. Start with our huge pork tenderloin, add our Angus steak burger, top it with slabs of Texas brisket, apple wood bacon & fried cheese, finished with buffalo chicken tenders. We smother this mountain with melted cheddar cheese, and white cheddar sauce, serve it with your choice of side. This could hurt you! A sandwich fit for the MVP.

KEP - CAMBODIA'S OTHER RUINS with Dr Jean Michel Filippi
Japan denied the ugly killings of Imperial Japanese Army on the Nanking massacre, and blind to what happen in the past. The people who have suffered in WW2 will remember WW2 and cruel killings of the IJA during the war and during their occupation. The people all over the world who suffered during WW2 will speak for the victims of the Nanking massacre, the killings may not call Nanking massacre, there are many monuments all over the world still remind us of the cruelty of IJA in WW2.
Let them forget about their military extremism, we will not forget.....all peaceful people in the world will not forget the WW2 and IJA...
KEP, a small seaside town in Cambodia standstill to remind us the evil of Khmer Rouge Genocide. Another ugly face of war and communist fanatic, just like the military extremists of IJA....
http://www.rustycompass.com In the early 1960s, Cambodia's Norodom Sihanouk presided over a kingdom at peace. Its elites travelled to the seaside town of Kep for weekends of high living and gambling at the town's casino. Kep was the grooviest beach town in South East Asia and a homegrown architectural style of remarkable ambition was celebrated there.
By 1970, Cambodia's efforts to keep out of the ever encroaching conflict next door in Vietnam, had failed. The Khmer Rouge was gaining territory throughout the country. Kep's brief period in the sun was over.
While travellers to Phnom Penh's Tuol Sleng museum get a sense of the sheer brutality of the Khmer Rouge, Kep's story is more subtle but no less powerful. This small town does not show the faces of the victims of the Khmer Rouge. Instead, the ruined buildings of Kep intimate a time of confidence and rich cultural aspiration that was comprehensively demolished with Pol Pot's rise.
The owners of Kep's mansions either fled Cambodia or died at the hands of the Khmer Rouge. Cambodia still reels from the impact of the Khmer Rouge genocide. The virtual annihilation of an entire class of professionals, academics, artists and leaders will take generations to heal. Their ghosts lurk in the ruins of Kep.

中国的稀土保卫战
简 介:稀土是一种重要的战略资源,广泛应用于各个领域,尤其是电子、等涉及到军事和未来发展的重要领域。中国曾占世界稀土商品量的80%,长期以来,全球主要依赖中国出口稀土,出口国主要为日本、美国、法国等国家。由于大量出口和盲目开采,1995年起,中国的稀土储量开始大幅下降,目前储量只有全世界的30%,但出口量却占到了全球贸易量的90%以上。有专家预测,按现有的生产速度,中国的稀土储备仅能维持15到20年,未来将有可能需要进口
美歐日加速佈局稀土戰略儲備 山姆大叔重挖"稀土州"
日本媒體4月5日披露,日本正計劃向擁有豐富稀土資源的貧窮國家提供經濟援助,以換取稀土資源的穩定獲取渠道,從而為其環保汽車產業發展打下基礎。這個消息或許並不那麼吸引眼球,但卻反映出日本針對有21世紀黃金之稱的稀土資源加速實施戰略儲備佈局的現實舉措。
事實上,歐洲和美國也早已加速佈局稀土戰略儲備:歐洲在2008年已未雨綢繆,制定相關戰略原則,而美國則更是在立法及本土資源開發方面 雙管齊下,為稀有能源的儲備打下基礎。分析人士認為,在各經濟體正在迎接新一輪增長的時候,對未來全球經濟格局產生重大影響的稀土戰略儲備全球戰局正逐漸走向白熱化。
日元換稀土將全球實施
日本媒體披露,日本最早將在今年5月向南美洲的玻利維亞提供數億美元的貸款,幫助該國建立一座功率為100兆瓦的地熱發電站。日本政府提供大規模經濟援助的原因在於,這可以幫助該國在與法國、巴西等國的競爭中脫穎而出,獲得從玻利維亞進口鋰礦的合同。而根據目前探明的儲量數據,玻利維亞的烏尤尼大湖蘊藏的鋰礦規模幾乎佔據全球的50%。
鋰目前的主要用途是作為電動汽車的電池原料,這種稀有金屬也同時被用於制藥、精細化工及合金製造行業。鋻於其難以取代的重要性,有分析人士認為,日本對玻利維亞的經濟援助也不可能僅以一個項目了事。事實上,日本還將出資4.4億日元為玻利維亞首都拉巴斯的所有醫院配備太陽能儀錶盤。此外,兩國也將就建立羊駝絨紡織經濟及在玻利維亞推廣地面數字電視等項目展開闔作。
除了鋰之外,稀土概念下的其他稀有金屬,包括鑭、鈰、釹、鐠、鏑、鈧、釔等都在諸多高科技領域中有著不可替代的地位,並在諸多行業均有廣泛應用。因此,稀土被稱為未來元素,其在工業中的地位越來越重要且開採量不斷攀升。正因為如此,除南美洲的鋰礦外,日本還打算將日元換稀土的策略用到非洲和亞洲國家所富有的稀土資源。
