What happen in Year of Goat 羊年发生什么事

This is a comparison  between 1979 and 2015.

Why 1979? Why not 1991 ( Gulf War ) or 2003, which is also year of Goat. This is because the rise of petroleum price few years ago like what happen in 1973.

We know the start of Spring on 4th of February on both 1979 and 2015 and first day of Lunar Chinese New Year on 19 February 2015.

However our comparison start from 1 January respectively rather than 4 February or first day of Lunar Chinese New Year as it still comply with 12 year cycle of comparison.

Similarity

1979 The Shah left Iran for exile on January 16, 1979, as the last Persian monarch, leaving his duties to a regency council and an opposition-based prime minister. Ayatollah Khomeini was invited back to Iran by the government, and returned to Tehran to a greeting by several million Iranians. The royal reign collapsed shortly after on February 11 when guerrillas and rebel troops overwhelmed troops loyal to the Shah in armed street fighting, bringing Khomeini to official power.

1979: 17 February, China limited attacted on Vietnam,  causing Vietnam in ability to invade Thailand after Cambodia

2015: 16 February, Egypt Air Strike on ISIS in Libya. This is after Jordan air strike one week ago. This is consider iconic as ISIS not only confronted western country in Europe but it own Islam brother country.

Differences

1979 : Copper prise rise in January.

2015 : Copper price still in bear market in January.


铜价

1979 : Petroleum Price stabilize in January to March affected by what happen in Iran and rise of  Khomeini and start rising again in June.

2015 : Petroleum price have some minor technical rebound only on what happen in Yemen.

What to watch

1979 : Former Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in December causing rise of Gold price

2015 : Would peace talk in Ukraine last? Would drop of petroleum price really clipped Russia

In short, 1979 call Annus Horribilis by historian.  








 羊年发生什么事

这是比较1979年和2015年发生的事。

为什么是比较1979年?不是也是羊年的1991年(海湾战争)或2003年。这是因为这几年石油价格大起像1973年之后发生的相同。 我们知道每年立春从二月4日开始和2015年农历一在2015年2月19日。 但是我们比较从1月1日开始,而不是2月4日或农历一开始,但是它仍然符合范蠡陶朱公12年的周期论

相似的地方

1979年: 伊朗革命,沙阿(伊朗君主)穆罕默德·禮薩·巴列維領導的伊朗君主立宪政體在过程中被推翻1979年1月中旬,沙阿被迫流亡海外,因此在兩星期後,在外流亡了15年的霍梅尼回到德黑蘭,受到數百萬伊朗人的歡迎。在不久後的2月11日,游擊隊叛軍在巷戰裡擊敗了忠於沙阿的部隊,導致皇室政權的崩坍。經過了全國公投後,伊朗在1979年4月1日成為伊斯蘭共和國,並通過了新的伊朗伊斯蘭共和國憲法。霍梅尼在1979年12月成為國家的最高領袖
這一次異乎尋常的革命使全世界感到錯愕:它的发生沒有那些引起革命的慣常因素;革命很快使國家发生了彻底的轉變;革命获得了廣大群众的支持;耗費大量資金建立的軍隊及保安部門保護下的原政权仍能被推翻


1979年中越戰爭也被稱为对越自卫反击战反中国扩张主义战争第三次印度支那戰爭,是指於1979年2月17日3月16日爆發在中國和越南越南之間的戰爭。1978年12月,越军进攻柬埔寨,是為柬越战争,不過一個多月,于1979年1月7日攻占柬埔寨首都金边,推翻了红色高棉,成立了“柬埔寨人民共和国”。1979年2月12日,中央军委下达《中越边境自卫还击作战命令》,决定于2月17日拂晓,从广西、云南方向同时发起对越自卫还击作战。牵制越南进攻泰国




约旦埃及会不牵制回教国?







约旦埃及




约旦约旦埃及会不会牵制回教国

差异的地方

1979 : 一月铜价已经上涨
2015: 一月铜价已经大幅下滑

1979 伊朗革命导致石油价格三月稳定,六月大涨
2015:石油价格已经大幅下滑,也门内战只引起技术反弹

要关注什

1979: 前苏联十二月入侵阿富汗导致黄金价格上涨
2015: 乌克兰和谈可以持续多久?下降的石油价格真的导致俄罗斯无力入侵乌克兰?

1979年被历史学家称为"可怕的一年"。

Online payment con and GHL Systems 支付宝网络诈骗与GHL系统

  • 投诉者从警方处获取该男子资料, 并写上不雅字眼泄愤。



On 25 Dec 2014, Three people claimed they have been cheated of about RM24,000 by an “agent” of a China-based online shopping website Taobao.com, Which own by US listed Alibaba.

They pay the "agent" to top up their online payment account, Alipay. Alipay own by Alibaba founder Jack Ma but it management is separated from listed Alibaba.

Despite Alibaba listed on New York Stock Exchange which propel Jack Ma to become Asia second richest businessman after Hong Kong's Li Ka Shin. It seem that Alibaba main business, Taobao.com is still very much within China.

Even you try to land Taobao.com in Malaysia, it will bring you to South East Asia page of Taobao.com but not home page of China's Taobao.com. It seem people in Malaysia still unable to top up their Alipay directly and still have to relied those so call "Agent", Who have a China's Reminbi Credit or Debit Card or have a Reminbi account holder.

This is still less condusive than US eBay and Paypal. Of course, seller able to sell via eBay and collect money via Paypal. This is not the case on Taobao.com and Alipay.

Malaysia, with people well versed in both English and Chinese, should be able to provide a link between US and China in Ecommerce. This is big potential for Malaysia as China largest trading partner within Asean.

However, the above have been block by banking system. The payment system never link up between Malaysia and China.

Bank Negara Malaysia will impose interchange fees ceiling from July 1,2015. It is not sure such ceiling fee will included Paypal? In fact, Paypal give very unfavorable foreign Exchange rate compare to bank and Money changer to it merchant, other than higher fee.

Earlier, on 17 Dec 2014, GHL Systems Bhd’s unit, GHL Systems Philippines Inc (GHL Philippines),signed an agreement with OmniPay Inc, a non-bank financial institution specialising in payment cards, to acquire merchants under a third-party acquirer (TPA) arrangement in the Philippines accepting payments via Unionpay and JCB cards. This is one milestone for GHL systems after completed deal of epay Australia.

This is a great milestone if GHL Systems able to have a connection with China Unionpay. Unfortunately, the connection are with Omnipay but not directly with Unionpay.

GHL’s chief executive officer Raj Lorenz said “We also expect to conclude a TPA arrangement in Malaysia soon,”. If TPA Malaysia is directly with Unionpay and GHL systems able to have direct connection with UnionPay. Then, this will provide a catalyst for Malaysia to link up banking system with China and Malaysian might not required to go through those "Agent" in future. This also provide competition between Paypal and Alipay if Bank Negara Malaysia unable to regulate ceiling charge of foreign operator.

 Of course, this also enable GHL systems to tap into lucrative Alibaba group's Taobao.com and Alipay.com.

Will Malaysia be the first country to link up Ecommerce between the West and China. The first country who have buyer and more importantly, seller, selling through both eBay and Taobao.com. Unfortunately, the increase of international postage rate by Pos Malaysia Berhad on May 2013 has force many ebay seller ceased their operation.











  • 投诉者从警方处获取该男子资料, 并写上不雅字眼泄愤。



支付宝网之前络诈骗与GHL系统

南洋商报去年十二月25日报道:

数十名来自全国各地的网民,向一名自称是代购中介的本地男子汇入数百至数千令吉不等,以协助代购中国商品或充值本身的支付宝户头,结果一无所得,保守估计损失逾5万令吉。

支付宝是阿里巴巴创办人马云属下私人企业.但不属上市阿里巴巴一部分.

看来马来西亚人仍然无法开通人民币网上银行给支付宝账户充值。而还需要通过所说的“代购中介”尽管阿里巴巴的淘宝网站已经有淘宝东南亚支付宝网站也说可以使用任何信用卡及预付卡

比美国eBay属下Paypal困难使用及不用户友善尽管阿里巴巴市值营业额比eBay及Paypal合计大阿里巴巴营业额只靠中国东南亚国家如马来西亚等仍然需要通过所说的“代购中介”人民币交易

之前,2014年12月17日 ,GHL系统(GHLSYS,0021,主板科技股)宣布菲律宾子公司,与菲律宾专业于付款卡的金融机构Omnipay签约,将在当地提供支付服务给商户(简称TPA),协助吸引更多商家接受中国银联(UnionPay)国际和日本国际信用卡公司(JCB International)。

使GHL系统中国银联(UnionPay)有联系可惜需通过菲律宾Omnipay联系而不是直接联系

马来西亚人双语能力马来西亚为东协跟中国最大的贸易伙伴使马来西亚有潜力成为打美国中国电子商务国家可惜银行交易系统成为

国家银行宣布,将在7月1日调低银行向商家征收付款卡交易的跨行交易费顶限,不确定顶限括国际运营商如Paypal和支付宝

GHL系统会跟中国银联(UnionPay)阿里巴巴达成联系,成为打破碍关键?电子商务市值营业额世界最大阿里巴巴达成交易?

如果成功,马来西亚将成为第一跟eBay阿里巴巴淘宝同时拥有电子商务卖家 国家可惜2013年5月马邮政国际邮费涨价已经造成不少电子商务卖家终止营业

2014年最差的企业公主



韩国韩进物流运输集团会长的长女、大韩航空公司副社长赵显娥,被一名乘务员惹怒后,竟然将乘务员赶下班机。
事件曝光后,赵显娥9日为她的行为负责提出辞呈。
赵显娥5日乘坐自家公司班机,拟从纽约飞往仁川。途中,乘务员递给她坚果时未征得她许可,也未把坚果放入盘子,结果惹怒她。
赵显娥涉嫌于12月5日搭乘从纽约肯尼迪机场飞往仁川的韩航KE086次班机时,因对空服人员提供坚果的方式不满,在飞机滑行前往跑道,但还未起飞的情况下,要求机长将飞机滑行回登机门,并迫使座舱长下飞机,航班最后晚点11分钟到达。
赵此举被业内人士批评,认为她有越权之嫌。韩国《航空法》规定,班机乘务工作由机长负责,乘务员由机长负责指挥和监督。
赵显娥本人也为她的行为,向韩航乘客和国民表示道歉,并希望因她而受到伤害的人士,能够原谅她。


赵显娥
赵显玟


据韩国一家报纸31日报道,“坚果返航”事件核心人物赵显娥的妹妹、大韩航空专务赵显玟17日向赵显娥发送“一定会复仇”的短信,短讯内容近日曝光,使事件进一步加剧。
不想为幼稚错误辩解
报道指,赵显娥的妹妹赵显玟当天在个人推特上发帖表示,对于短讯内容被媒体曝光感到无言以对,心怀歉意,不想为这一幼稚的错误辩解,希望得到谅解。
赵显娥(40岁)是已故韩进集团创始人赵重勋的长孙女,父亲赵亮镐是韩进集团现任会长、大韩航空会长。赵亮镐的小女儿赵显玟现年31岁,是韩国最年轻的大企业高管,在大韩航空负责广告及市场营销等业务。
