Takot ba sa Amerika ang China?

Ang India at China ay magkalapit na mga bansa at hindi nagkakasundo sa definition ng kanilang land border. Dahil dito ay nagkaroon sila ng mga skirmishes at naging dahilan ng kamatayan ng ilan nilang mga sundalo. Ilan sa nalathala ay ang mga sumusunod:

  • 1967 Nathu La and Cho La clashes – India repelled Chinese incursions in Sikkim.
  • 1987 Sino-Indian skirmish – A tense standoff in Arunachal Pradesh, but no full-scale war.
  • 2020 Galwan Valley clash – A deadly hand-to-hand combat incident in Ladakh, resulting in casualties on both sides.

And sitwasyon ng India at China ay mai-hahalintulad ng sitwasyon ng Pilipinas at sa pinag-aagawang mga isla sa south china sea na ang ilan ay napapaloob sa ating EEZ or WPS. Bakit hindi nangyayari ang mga katulad na skirmishes sa pagitan ng Pilipinas at China? Sa opinion ko ay dahil kahit papano ay umiilag ang China na magkaroon ng direct o kaya naman ay proxy war sa US. Isipi nalang natin na ang India ay may mas malakas na sandataha kumpara sa Pilipinas pero hindi nag-dalawang isip ang China na makipag-digma sa kanila. Subalit sa south china sea ay hindi ito ginagawa ng China. Isa pa rin na malaking hadlang sa pag-angkin ng China sa halos buong south china sea ang Amerika. 
Ang malakas na pakikipag-ugnayan sa US ay maituturing pa rin na deterrence sa arm conflict sa south china sea.

Microsoft Office365

Let's be honest about it. Apple office document apps sucks. Although, I am using Macbook 12-inch model as my personal laptop, I hate their office apps not because they are buggy or not user-friendly; but because of their limited adoption. Few people are using it (none of my friends and colleague uses it). I cannot use it in my work because people will curse me. There is only one instance where I used it, i.e. during our hackaton event. That's it.  As expected, like any office worker; I am a regular user of Microsoft Office, i.e. word, powerpoint and excel. I bought office365 since it is cheaper and you always get the latest version. I am using it for 2 years now and my license will end August of this year (August 08, 2018 to be exact). I bought my last 2 licenses from lazada.com.ph for less than 2,000 pesos. As I don't want to lose my access to onedrive.com and office apps; I bought a new 1 year license from lazada.com.ph for 1,499 pesos inclusive of the shippi...

Earthwood Guitar String

My daughter requested a guitar because she wants to learn playing the instrument. We went to SM North to and buy the guitar at JB music store for 900+ pesos. She picked the gray-ish color. It is a beginner's guitar and with the price, I would say, the quality is average. But you can buy the same quality guitar at RJ music store at slightly lower price. One thing that she doesn't like is the strings which is painful to the fingers since they are very 'hard' (not sure if that is the right term though). So I checked Amazon to get some 'soft' guitar strings. Luckily, I found Earthwood that has a good reviews. I ordered and ship the item through my-shoppingbox.com. After almost 15 days, I received the strings. I replaced the old strings and tuned them using an Android App. It really made a big difference playing with Earthwood strings. It is more forgiving to the fingers and has a better sound quality (I am not a musician - just an opinion).  My daughter is n...
