THE BRICS FORGES AHEAD AS BRAZIL, RUSSIA, INDIA, CHINA, SOUTH AFRICA AS FORMED IN 2011 TO EXERCISE ITS ECONOMIC WILL THROUGH ECONOMIC, TRADE, AND BANKING MEETS TO FURTHER SOLIDIFY ITS CHALLENGE OF WESTERN CURRENCY - BUT REMAINS TO BE SEEN IF THE BRICS HAVE BEEN FIRED IN THE KILN OR ONLY MADE OF CLAY

"Some countries are getting more inward-looking in their policies. Protectionism is rising and forces against globalisation are posing an emerging risk," he added.

While Xi did not single anyone out, Republican candidate Donald Trump has threatened to erect trade barriers to Chinese products if elected US president. Britain's vote to leave the European Union has been interpreted partly as a backlash against globalisation.

While China's economy has been running out of steam of late --although it is still the world's second largest -- India is now the fastest-growing major economy and its GDP is expected to increase 7.6 percent in 2016–17.

- 'Deeper bonds' -

Modi said it was vital the BRICS nations increased cooperation by dismantling trade barriers and developing infrastructure.

"I think I speak for all when I say that through a common vision and collective action, we will create and sustain deeper bonds among BRICS nations, develop our economies and secure our societies," he said.

"While our achievements have been substantial, we need to sustain the positive direction and strong momentum of intra-BRICS engagement."

Xi said BRICS countries had much to be proud of and had contributed to more than 50 percent of global growth in the last decade.

THE POTUS FOR 2016 HILLARY CLINTON LEAKED EMAILS SHOWS THE TELL TAIL OF DECEIT LEADING GREED FOR THE SPIN OF FORTUNE RIGGING THE SYSTEM IN FAVOR FOR POLITICAL FAVORS - AN OPINION OF THE CLINTONIAN WAY OF POLITICS AND MONEY MAKING SCHEMES WITH FAVORS AFTERWARD AS THE REWARD FOR THE DIRTY DEEDS

AMONG the many telling kernels of truth dappling the spoor of the Hillary Clinton campaign’s internal e-mails released by WikiLeaks this past week, this one immediately leapt out.
“Politics is like sausage being made. It is unsavoury, and it always has been that way, but we usually end up where we need to be. But if everybody’s watching ... then people get a little nervous, to say the least. So, you need both a public and a private position.”
The sausage maker was Mrs. Clinton, giving one of her $US225,000 speeches that she’s so long sought to conceal from the public, in this instance to the National Multi-Housing Council in April 2013. It came at a time when the just-retired secretary of state was coyly gearing up for a White House run, little tin cup at the ready, raking in nearly a million dollars that month alone.
When her ode to pragmatic two-facedness was called out by Donald Trump at last week’s debate, she lamely blamed it on Abe Lincoln, as portrayed in Steven Spielberg’s 2012 film. Never mind that a high-priced collection plate and the passage of the 13th Amendment have little in common. It’s all in a day’s work for a woman who claims to be for the Little Guy but spends most of her time frolicking with the political and financial elites.
Then again, Hillary has long believed that “the personal is political,” especially when political power can benefit her personally. Indeed, as the emails show, her public career has been based on showing one face to her gullible supporters and another, more ruthless one to allies and adversaries behind closed doors.

CHINA IS THE WANNA BE EMPIRE OF 2016 AS IT WANTS TO TAKE OVER ASIA AS JAPAN HAD ONCE TRIED TO DO IN 1939 - BUT WITH AN INCH HERE AND THERE AND A MILE HERE AND THERE AS ISLANDS OUT OF ITS JURISDICTION BEING CONFISCATED TO NOW OCEAN FISHING RIGHTS IN THE WESTERN SEA OF KOREA BEING POACH BY CHINESE FISHERS - AS ITS OWN COASTAL OCEAN HAVE BEEN RAVAGE OF FISH FROM OVER FISHING - AS S KOREA WILL USE FORCE TO ENFORCE ITS BORDERS - AS N KOREA GIVES AWAY ITS COASTAL WATERIES TO CHINA FOR THE SAKE FOR THE N BOMB

The Chinese government on Wednesday denied that Korea has jurisdiction over waters where a Chinese trawler sank a Coast Guard ship last week.

A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman told reporters that Korea should refrain from using excessive force that could harm the safety of Chinese nationals.

The Foreign Ministry here insisted that a crackdown authorizing the use of live firearms against constant incursions by Chinese fishermen is "justified."

Asked to comment on Seoul summoning the Chinese ambassador to lodge a formal protest, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said the coordinates given by the Korean government for the location where the trawler rammed the coast guard speedboat "is within the waters where existing fishing activities shall be maintained as prescribed in the fishery agreement between China" and Korea.

"There is no term in the agreement that can justify law enforcement activities by the [Korean] coast guard in these waters... The Chinese side once again asks the [Korean] side to discipline its law enforcement staff and regulate their law enforcement activities so as to avoid the abuse of law enforcement power and violent behavior or approaches that may hurt or endanger Chinese personnel."

But the Foreign Ministry here said the Chinese fishing boats were operating illegally in Korea's exclusive economic zone and Seoul had the right to pursue the trawler into open seas.

THE GREAT PYRAMID OF GIZA MAY HAVE TWO MORE CAVITIES UNEXPLORED FROM THE PRESENT 3 KNOWN CAVITIES EXPLORED

Egypt’s Great Pyramid of Giza could contain two previously unknown “cavities,” scientists using radiography to scan the millennia-old monument said Saturday.

On Thursday, the antiquities ministry cautiously announced finding “two anomalies” in the pyramid built 4,500 years ago under King Khufu, with further tests to determine their function, nature and size.

At 146 meters tall, Khufu pyramid, named after the son of pharaoh Snefru, is considered one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.
