Chery brands have 24% market share car sales in S.A - it was ironic seeing the BMW dealership closing in my town and being replaced by a BYD one.

It will be interesting to see how VW responds next year with the locally manufactured small SUV Tengo targeting the Chery Tiggo 4 Pro 4 - why bother with an old Polo Vivo when you get something WAY better and modern.

It needs to retail at R269,000.00 or cheaper.

I have severe backpain - some opioid will do nicely.

Pangolins actually - they carried a strain of the virus that had the ability to infect human cells via ACE2 receptor.

The bat variant did not have that - wet market - close proximity - a fortuitous gene swap and hey presto.

2008 is calling again - SPV's of subprime mortages.

Commercial shipping - oh dear.

We have a vigilant free press reporting on scandals and a court system which holds the govt fully accountable.

I see far more corruption evident in the US right now with Trump and his family and their crypto investments and dodgy govt deals - perhaps the Economist should do an article.

People being pardoned by paying for it.

It is inevitable that NI will join the Irish Republic in some manner as a special devolved state, but it will happen naturally as the demographics shift from the Unionist to the Republican side as per voting and the younger generations identifying as unionist will care less about the parades and bonfires and far more pressing things like economy and opportunities in Ireland and EU.

Nobody wants to go back to the "troubles" except for the hardcore old timers who are slowly dying out on both sides.

Spend more time with my family :).

Finally.

One daughter was on the spectrum and could not deal with high school - we tried finding her an alternative school but they are scarce and too far away - we enrolled her in a home-schooling program with certification and gateway to school leaving certificate but had her go in daily to a tutoring center to work at her own pace but a tutor checking if she is on track.

Kids will goof off if you don't check on them and parents make for terrible teachers - seen so many admiring the lesson materials when it arrives and start with gusto with mom taking more off days and eventually it all fizzles out and the kids end up without a school leaving certificate.

Time to fork it and build a new place for true open source.

Clearly you either don't read the news or a fanboy or some of his stunts and lies does not bother you.

I am not watching the cartel or ISIS ones - they are staged and frankly rather disturbing to me.

I saw one with an aftermath of a HIMARS strike with anti-personal warheads (ball bearings) on a Russian drone training camp in a forest, the heaps of bodies did not bother me at all - was more wondering about the trees and how above a certain height there were no branches or leaves.

On a visceral level I understand the why of the killing from the Ukrainian side - it is morally just.

Like in Vietnam and fragging their commanding officers.
