Podcasts about Indonesia

The eighth and final episode in a series on the history of Indonesia: a hinge in the world system where colonialism and revolution have decisively shaped the trajectory of global history. This last installment picks up with the 2014 election of Joko Widodo, or Jokowi, to the presidency. That promise was soon betrayed, laying the groundwork for the rise of Prabowo Subianto, a scion of Suharto who represents nearly everything repugnant about the New Order regime. And yet Prabowo's rule remains beset by contradiction and controversy—and the Indonesia's political future remains uncertain.

In Indonesia, 19 people are convicted of trafficking at least 34 babies. The leader of the group, a 70 year-old woman, was sentenced to seven years in prison. The trafficking ring illegally bought babies in West Java and sold them for adoption in Indonesia and Singapore. Also: a deal to secure an Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon and the disarmament of the Iranian-backed Hezbollah faces its first test on the ground. US military says it struck at Iran's ability to launch attacks into the Strait of Hormuz, on the tenth night in a row of US strikes. A mansion in north London, which provided vital intelligence during the Second World War, opens to the public for the first time. The deadly Ebola outbreak continues to spread in the Democratic Republic of Congo, affecting several provinces across the country.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes back Steve Hanke back to the show. Steve Hanke is a Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University. Hanke highlights the two major wars—the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran and the Ukraine war—as critical disruptors of global commodity flows. He notes that the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed, with Iran controlling it, and the Houthis threaten the Red Sea chokepoint, severely constricting crude and refined product supplies. Russia's cutoff of diesel exports and domestic fuel shortages compound the strain. Oil markets are in backwardation, with spot prices above futures, signaling dangerously low inventories that have cushioned prices so far but are nearing depletion. Hanke warns that once physical inventories run out, oil prices could spike dramatically, potentially later this summer. He advises going long on oil, especially major producers, as a straightforward trade for most investors. On gold, Hanke maintains a bullish outlook, projecting a peak around $6,000 per ounce based on historical ratios to real disposable income. He attributes recent pullbacks to dollar strength and rising interest rates but sees central bank buying as a fundamental driver. He also discusses the pressure on the Fed to monetize debt, which could fuel inflation and support gold. The conversation shifts to the broader commodity supercycle, fueled by deglobalization, underinvestment, and the need for larger precautionary inventories. Copper and tungsten are identified as clear bullish plays due to supply deficits. Hanke notes that high diesel prices are squeezing mining and agriculture, potentially raising output prices. He also touches on dollarization, recommending developing countries adopt the U.S. dollar to expand its use rather than de-dollarize. The interview concludes with Hanke emphasizing the importance of money supply growth as the key determinant of nominal GDP and inflation.

Southeast Asia's venture market is not in a downturn. It is in a structural winter, and mid-2026 is when that distinction stopped being academic. Kristie Neo returns to break down what is actually happening across the region: Singapore's IPO revival is real but is being carried by data centres and REITs rather than homegrown tech; allocators now rank Southeast Asia at the bottom of Asia behind China, India, Japan, Korea and ANZ; and a generation of growth-stage companies is being kept alive past the point where a merger or a wind-down would have served everyone better. Jeremy Au and Kristie also work through what could actually restart the funding ladder, from encouraging tech M&A and fixing university IP commercialisation, to tax incentives for angels and support for syndicate leads who can assemble the $1 million to $5 million rounds that Singapore currently cannot fill. If you are a founder raising in Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Thailand or Malaysia, or an LP trying to work out where capital goes next in Asia, this is the honest state of the market.

From airports to cricket broadcasts, India's family conglomerates keep turning up everywhere. According to the 2024 Barclays-Hurun report, one family's wealth alone equals nearly one-tenth of everything India produces in a year. India is running a version of the economic playbook that South Korea and Indonesia once ran — protect your conglomerates and let them do the building.South Korea came through it, at enormous political and economic cost. Indonesia's economy contracted by 13% in a single year.India is somewhere earlier in that story.

China is an active advocate and practitioner of global governance in artificial intelligence, committed to ensuring that the benefits of AI are shared more broadly and equitably among people around the world, experts said.专家表示，中国是人工智能全球治理的积极倡导者和践行者，致力于让人工智能发展成果更广泛、更公平地惠及世界各国人民。Guided by the principles of multilateralism, openness and inclusiveness, China works to build the broadest possible international consensus on AI governance and contributes Chinese solutions to advancing global development in the age of intelligence, they said.专家们说，中国秉持多边主义、开放包容的原则，努力凝聚人工智能治理领域最广泛的国际共识，为推动智能时代全球发展贡献中国方案。Speaking in Shanghai at the opening ceremony of the 2026 World AI Conference and High-Level Meeting on Global AI Governance, President Xi Jinping called for joint efforts to build a just and equitable system for global AI governance.国家主席习近平在上海出席2026世界人工智能大会暨全球人工智能治理高级别会议开幕式并发表讲话，呼吁各方共同努力，构建公正合理的全球人工智能治理体系。"All countries should take a people-centered approach and develop AI for the positive and for good. We should ensure that AI is an important driver for shared prosperity and common security," Xi said.习近平表示："各国应坚持以人为本，推动人工智能向善发展，确保人工智能成为促进共同繁荣与普遍安全的重要力量。"In his keynote speech, Xi stressed the need for adhering to the principles of openness and win-win and boosting innovation-driven development.习近平在主旨演讲中强调，要坚持开放合作、互利共赢，加快创新驱动发展。He called for strengthening risk awareness, ensuring that AI is secure and controllable, encouraging inclusiveness, promoting mutual learning between civilizations, advocating solidarity and improving global governance.他呼吁增强风险意识，确保人工智能安全可控，倡导包容普惠，促进文明互鉴，弘扬团结协作精神，完善全球治理。Gordon K'achola, founder and CEO of the Africa Center for Diplomatic Affairs, highlighted that China has promised to help developing countries build their own AI know-how.非洲外交事务中心创始人兼首席执行官戈登·卡乔拉指出，中国已承诺帮助发展中国家建立自主人工智能技术能力。"For Africa and the broader Global South, the goal isn't just getting the latest tech. It's about building the capacity to create and control their own AI writing algorithms, growing research centers, and strengthening local institutions," he said.他表示："对非洲和更广泛的全球南方国家而言，目标不仅仅是获得最新技术，更在于培养自主研发和掌控人工智能算法的能力，壮大本地研究中心，加强本土机构建设。"Xi said that China will develop international AI application cooperation centers with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, the League of Arab States, the African Union, the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and BRICS.习近平表示，中国将与东盟、阿盟、非盟、拉共体、上海合作组织、金砖国家共同建设人工智能应用国际合作中心。Furthermore, China will promote the deployment of MAZU, an AI-powered meteorological early-warning solution, in 30 countries, he said.他还表示，中国将推动人工智能气象预警方案"妈祖"在30个国家落地应用。Philip Okello, principal meteorologist at the Kenya Meteorology Service, noted that China has made significant advances in meteorological forecasting, satellite observation and early warning of disasters, adding that deeper cooperation in these areas could help enhance Africa's forecasting capabilities and strengthen its resilience to climate change.肯尼亚气象局首席气象学家菲利普·奥凯洛指出，中国在气象预报、卫星观测和灾害预警等领域取得显著进展，他补充说，在这些领域深化合作将有助于提升非洲的预报能力，增强其应对气候变化的韧性。"President Xi's speech is timely because climate change is no longer a future risk; it is a present-day reality that is affecting countries across the globe," he said.他说："习近平主席的讲话恰逢其时，因为气候变化已不再是未来的风险，而是正在影响全球各国的现实挑战。"Okello also said that Xi's emphasis on strengthening meteorological science, innovation and international cooperation "aligns closely with what Africa needs to better prepare for increasingly frequent droughts, floods and extreme weather events".奥凯洛还表示，习近平强调加强气象科学研究、创新与国际合作，这与非洲应对日益频发的干旱、洪涝和极端天气事件、提升防范能力的需求高度契合。Xi also announced the establishment of the World Artificial Intelligence Cooperation Organization, whose headquarters will be in Shanghai, as "a major move by China to answer the call of the Global South and unite the international community" to vigorously promote AI development and governance.习近平还宣布成立总部设在上海的世界人工智能合作组织，称这是"中国响应全球南方国家呼声、凝聚国际社会共识"、大力推动人工智能发展与治理的重大举措。Maria Sun, co-chair of the FIRA RoboWorld Cup 2026, said the rapid development of AI has brought new challenges, underscoring the need for stronger international cooperation to address them collectively.2026世界机器人足球锦标赛联合主席玛丽亚·孙表示，人工智能的快速发展带来了新的挑战，凸显出加强国际合作、共同应对这些挑战的必要性。"China's efforts to promote AI cooperation with developing countries are very encouraging. International exchanges like these help bring more countries into the AI era," she said.她说："中国致力于推动与发展中国家的人工智能合作，这非常令人鼓舞。此类国际交流有助于让更多国家融入人工智能时代。""China has maintained an open approach to AI development, and that will contribute significantly to technological progress worldwide. Today, China is one of the global leaders in AI, and its continued openness will help drive innovation and international cooperation," Sun added.孙补充说："中国在人工智能发展上始终秉持开放态度，这将为全球科技进步作出重要贡献。当今，中国已成为全球人工智能领域的领军者之一，其持续开放的姿态将有助于推动创新与国际合作。"Humprey Arnaldo Russel, head of the ASEAN-China Research Center at the University of Indonesia, said that AI creates transnational challenges involving safety, ethics, misuse, technical standards, regulatory fragmentation, and widening digital and governance divides.印度尼西亚大学东盟-中国研究中心主任汉弗雷·阿纳尔多·拉塞尔表示，人工智能带来了涉及安全、伦理、滥用、技术标准、监管碎片化以及数字和治理鸿沟扩大等跨国性挑战。He said that the Global AI Governance Initiative, put forward by President Xi in 2023, advances global AI governance through solidarity and multilateral cooperation, which requires the greatest attention from the international community.他表示，习近平主席于2023年提出的《全球人工智能治理倡议》，通过团结协作与多边合作推动全球人工智能治理，这需要国际社会给予高度关注。"The proposal is especially important for the Global South, whose interests remain underrepresented in global technology governance. A broadly accepted, United Nations-centered framework could strengthen developing countries' participation (in global AI governance) while respecting different national conditions," he added.他补充说："这一倡议对全球南方国家尤为重要，因为它们的利益在全球科技治理中长期代表性不足。一个得到广泛认可、以联合国为中心的框架，既能尊重各国不同国情，又能加强发展中国家在（全球人工智能治理）中的参与。"David Tuffley, an adjunct senior lecturer at Griffith University's School of Information and Communication Technology in Australia, said the people-centered approach seeks to address a major challenge in AI governance: ensuring that the benefits of the technology are shared broadly rather than remaining concentrated in the hands of a few.澳大利亚格里菲斯大学信息与通信技术学院客座高级讲师戴维·塔夫利表示，"以人为本"的理念旨在应对人工智能治理中的一大挑战，即确保技术发展成果得到广泛共享，而非被少数人垄断。President Xi's speech highlighted China's commitment to promoting global AI governance and the development of international norms, he noted.他指出，习近平主席的讲话彰显了中国致力于推动全球人工智能治理和国际规则制定的坚定承诺。Tuffley also said that for the international community, particularly developing countries, the commitment to capacity building and greater access to computing power is especially significant, as much of the world's population currently has little voice in shaping the rules that govern AI.塔夫利还表示，对国际社会尤其是发展中国家而言，加强能力建设、扩大算力获取渠道的承诺意义尤为重大，因为当前全球相当一部分人口在人工智能规则制定中话语权十分有限。"Australia and China share an interest in AI safety research, in standards for evaluating frontier systems, and in ensuring AI serves rather than displaces human judgment in critical domains such as healthcare and education," he said.他说："澳大利亚与中国在人工智能安全研究、前沿系统评估标准，以及确保人工智能在医疗、教育等关键领域服务于人类判断而非取代人类判断等方面，拥有共同利益。"practitioner /prækˈtɪʃənər/ n.实践者，践行者equitably /ˈekwɪtəbli/ adv.公平地multilateralism /ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm/ n.多边主义inclusiveness /ɪnˈkluːsɪvnəs/ n.包容性fragmentation /ˌfrægmenˈteɪʃən/ n.碎片化underrepresented /ˌʌndərˌreprɪˈzentɪd/ adj.代表性不足的adjunct /ˈædʒʌŋkt/ adj.兼任的，客座的frontier /ˈfrʌntɪr/ n.前沿

Selamat ulang tahun ke-22, Informa!

Selalu berpotensi, tak pernah berhasil. Dari Fairchild sampai Lokananta, kenapa Indonesia betah berhenti di ambang? Apakah ini Kutukan Ambang?

Shutterstock Track 1219389 Monetization ID TFGEPGEI0LHEIJAI Kia ora. Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand. I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from interest.co.nz. Today we lead with news the Yemeni Houthis have announced a naval blockade against Saudi Arabia but effectively closing the Red Sea. Elsewhere new mediation efforts are underway again. In the US, the Conference Board's leading indicator tracking turned negative in June. The shift down isn't a lot because it wasn't very positive in earlier months. But it is consistent with the Atlanta Fed's GDPNow tracking showing an exhaustion of the pace of the US expansion. Off balance sheet debt at the big US tech giants is exploding, making investment assessments harder to make. It is now an estimated US$1.65 tln as artificial intelligence investments ballooned, a Nikkei study shows, and now exceeds actual reported debt. The problem is particularly acute at Meta. These companies are about to report Q2-2026 results and these debt levels are sure to become an issue. The main way these debt obligations stay off balance sheets is via "innovative" lease transactions centered around timing issues. And US Big Tech valuations are also under threat from Chinese alternatives, especially the relatively new Moonshot K3 version. It is hard not to to get a sense that financial markets are facing a revaluation crisis in the tech sector. In Canada, their CPI inflation rate came in at 2.8% in June, with a core rate of 2.1%. Both these measures were lower than in May and slightly lower than expected. The Malaysian export boom is carrying on (+45% from June a year ago), especially for electronics (+57%) and petroleum (+56%), and especially to the US (+109%). But they needed all of that because imports surged sharply too, up 44% from a year ago. The People's Bank of China kept its key lending rates at record lows for a 14th straight month in July, as widely expected. The one-year loan prime rate (LPR), the benchmark for most corporate and household borrowing, was held at 3.0%, while the five-year LPR, a reference rate for mortgages, remained at 3.5%. However, rate cut expectations are rising there as their domestic economy slows. German producer prices were up a modest +1.8% in June from a year ago, similar to the prior two months. But this new level is in contrast to the PPI deflation they had reported for the earlier twelve consecutive months. A number of major countries are struggling to contain the devaluation of their currencies against the US dollar. Japan is seeing its currency at its weakest level since 1996. India is seeing levels back to near the record lows they had in mid-May. And Indonesia is battling record low levels as well. All these are major economies and all are trying to work what level of higher interest rate differential is needed to stabilise their situation. This is just part of a rising interest rate background, not helped by the prospect of higher US interest rates from their inability to tackle inflation effectively. The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.60%, up +4 bps from this time yesterday.  The price of gold has slipped to US$4003/oz, down -US$14 from yesterday. Silver is now just under US$56.50/oz, up +50 USc from yesterday. Oil prices are +50 USc firmer from yesterday at just under US$83/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is now just under US$89/bbl. Hormuz transits are still just a trickle There have been just 1 crude tanker and 5 cargo ships exiting over the past 24 hours (4 dark with transponders off) and 8 entering for new loads (8 dark) and all this traffic is Iran-linked. The Kiwi dollar is marginally firmer from yesterday at just under 58.5 USc. Against the Aussie we are down -20 bps at 83.5 AUc. Against the euro we are up +10 bps at just on 51.2 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at 62.3 which is unchanged from this time yesterday. The bitcoin price starts today at US$65,541 and up +1.6% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just over +/-1.4%. You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz. Kia ora. I'm David Chaston and we'll do this again tomorrow.

Dibawakan oleh Veronika Genua dari Paroki St. Martinus Roworeke di Keuskupan Agung Ende, Indonesia. Mikha 7: 14-15.18-20; Mazmur tg 85: 2-4.5-6.7-8; Matius 12: 49-50.TONGKAT KUASA TUHAN         Renungan kita pada hari ini bertema: Tongkat Kuasa Tuhan. Tradisi dalambanyak budaya politik menjadikan tongkat sebagai simbol kekuasaan. Kitamengingat Musa memakai tongkat untuk menampilkan kuasa Allah yang bekerja dalamdirinya untuk memimpin bangsa dan umat Allah. Para raja dan presidennegara-negara juga memakai tongkat dengan makna simbolik kekuasaan yang merekamiliki. Di dalam Gereja, tongkat uskup juga memiliki makna serupa.  Tongkat yang terbuat dari bahan entah kayu entah logam sangat melekatdengan kekuasaan atau otoritas orang yang memakainya. Bahkan rotan ataupotongan kayu lurus yang dipakai bapak atau ibu di rumah cukup memberikanpemahaman bahwa jika anak-anak melanggar aturan hukumannya ialah pukulan dengankayu itu. Dalam semua pemandangan dengan tongkat ini, kita dapat mengerti lebihlanjut mengapa Tuhan selalu mengungkapkan di dalam kitab suci kuasa-Nya yangdisimbolkan dengan tongkat.  Ia berkata dalam nubuat Mikha dalam bacaan pertama hari ini bahwa Iamenggembalakan umat-Nya dengan tongkat-Nya. Yesus sang gembala yang baik jugamenjalankan tugas penggembalaan itu dengan memakai tongkat imam agung, yanghingga saat ini disimbolkan pada Paus dan para uskup. Dengan tongkat itu,tugas-tugas sebagai pemimpin dan gembala memiliki legitimasi dan kekuatan untukmendapatkan ketaatan atau kepatuhan dari orang-orang yang dipimpin. Tongkat kuasa Tuhan, memiliki fungsi untuk suatu pemurnian dan pembebasanmanusia dari kuasa kegelapan dan dosa. Setan dan penguasa kegelapan ketikaberhadapan dengan kuasa Allah yang dilambangkan dengan tongkat, ia menjadiketakutan. Itu terbukti dalam setiap tindakan Yesus yang selalu hadir melaluikata-kata dan hardikan, yang langsung membuat para setan menjadi takut danmemohon untuk tidak disiksa. Berkat tongkat kuasa Tuhan itu, segala dosa kitadapat dicampakkan ke dalam dasar laut, demikian kata nabi Mikha. Jadi kita mesti memandang tongkat saat ditunjukkan kepada kita apakah dalamposisi dipegang, dijadikan penopang pada saat berdiri, atau saat menunjukkandan menegaskan sesuatu dalam suatu proses pengajaran. Yesus menunjuk dengansegala kuasa yang ada pada-Nya, ketika Ia mengajarkan bahwa para murid danrasul sesungguhnya adalah ibu-Nya, dan saudara-saudara-Nya. Penegasan ituberisi suatu ajaran yang penuh kewibawaan dan prinsip. Ajaran itu ialah bahwamelaksanakan kehendak Allah merupakan tugas utama setiap pengikut Kristus.Tongkat kuasa Yesus itu sampai detik ini berada pada tangan Paus dan Uskup ditempat kita masing-masing. Kita harus mendengar dan mengikuti Bapa Suci danUskup kita. Marilah kita berdoa.Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Tuhan, semoga kesetiaan dan ketaatan kami kepada Gerejasenantiasa kuat dan bertahan, khususnya melalui ketaatan kami kepada Bapa Sucidan Uskup kami. Kemuliaan kepada Bapa dan Putra dan Roh Kudus ... Dalam namaBapa.

Delivered by Vici from the Parish of St. John the Baptist in the Archdiocese of Jakarta, Indonesia. Micah 7: 14-15.18-20; Rs psalm 85: 2-4.5-6.7-8; Matthew 12: 46-50.THE STAFF OF GOD'S POWER Our meditation today has the theme: The Staff of God'sPower. In many political traditions a staff or stick is used as a symbol ofpower. We remember Moses who used a staff to show that the power of God was atwork in him, when he was in his mission to lead the people of God to where theLord led them. Kings and presidents of various countries also use staff whichis the symbol of the power they hold. In the Church, the Pope and Bishops havealso staff with the similar meaning. The staff that is made of wood or metal refers to thepower or authority of the person who uses it. Even a stick of wood which isused by father or mother at home is enough to give us understanding that ifchildren violate the rules, they will be subjected to punishment be beaten withthe stick. Seeing what this staff or stick signifies, now we can furtherunderstand why  in the scriptures Godalways reveals His power through the symbolic staff being used by His chosenfigures who had so important duty to do. Today we listen to the Lord who says through theprophecy of Micah in the first reading, that He Himself shepherded His peoplewith His staff. Jesus the good shepherd also carried out the pastoral works byusing the high priest's staff, which until now has been symbolized by the Popeand Bishops. With that staff, the duty as leader and shepherd have itslegitimacy and strength to demand obedience and reliance from people who aresubjected to it. The staff of God has its powerful function in thepurification and deliverance of men and women believers from the power ofdarkness and sin. Satan, the ruler of darkness, when confronted with the powerof God that is symbolized by the staff, he will fall trembling and fear. Thatwas evident in every action of Jesus who was always present through words anddeeds, which instantly frightened the Satan who asked not to be tortured. Thisis the role of to the staff of God, that is to cast all our sins and to bethrown into the sea, says the prophet Micah. So we must look at the staff when it is shown to us insuch manner being held by the person in power, it is made as a support when westand, or when it is used to emphasize on something so important. Jesus referredto all the power that existed in Him, when He spoke that His true disciples andapostles were indeed His mother and His brothers. This statement of Jesussurely contains the teaching that is full with authority. This teaching isabout to carry out God's will which is to be the main task of every follower ofChrist. The staff of Jesus until now is in the hands of the Pope and the Bishopsof the Church. We must listen and follow our Holy Father and our Bishop.Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... O Lord, may our fidelity and obedience tothe Church always be strong and lasting especially through our obedience to theHoly Father and Bishop. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the HolySpirit ... In the name of the Father …

"Indonesia Tak Jadi Kolaps: Optimisme atau Fakta?" Narasumber: Pkl 23.00 ::: Direktur Eksekutif Indonesia Political Review (IPR), Iwan Setiawan Pkl 24.00 ::: Pengamat Ekonomi, Irwan Ibrahim

There is something very easy and generous about the way Reki Reinantha tells his story. He came to Australia from Indonesia as a high school student, began studying architecture, then slowly found himself pulled towards the kitchen and the pleasure of making people happy through food. Since then, his path has taken him through Japanese restaurants, major hospitality groups, pop-ups, setbacks and, eventually, businesses of his own. Since then, his path has taken him through Japanese restaurants, major hospitality groups, pop-ups, setbacks and, eventually, ventures of his own. Today, that includes Sachi, his seafood and sushi restaurant built around the idea that exceptional Japanese food can be both highly skilled and genuinely accessible; Atsu, which has earned a loyal following for its fun katsu, skewers and highballs; and Common Cuts, a newer venture that applies the same philosophy of quality and approachability to Melbourne's steakhouse scene. But what stayed with me most was not the scale of what he has built. It was the way he talks about the people around him: the responsibility of leading a team and the very lovely belief that good things happen when you are surrounded by good people. Listening to Reki, it becomes clear that the restaurants are only part of the story. At the heart of everything he has created is a commitment to community, opportunity and the relationships that make hospitality.

This is episode 3 of a six-part series on food imperialism. Welcome to Edible Empire, a podcast by Planet Pulse Pacific about the hidden cost of our food.Food isn't just about taste—it's power. This podcast explores how empires and corporations built control through agriculture, reshaping cultures and feeding some at the expense of others.This episode traces the global impact of the palm oil industry from its indigenous roots to modern supply chains through three expert interviews.Dr Jonathan Robins opens by detailing the pre-colonial history of oil palm in West Africa and explaining how European empires weaponised the crop to fuel the Industrial Revolution, establishing structural patterns that mirror today's agribusiness models.Dr Helena Varkkey then unpacks the political economy of Malaysian production, exposing how entrenched relationships between political elites and conglomerates shield the industry from regulation.Farwiza Farhan brings a frontline conservation perspective from Indonesia, documenting how government-incentivised monoculture plantations drive deforestation, threaten endangered species, and violate Indigenous land rights. Together, the experts critique the effectiveness of voluntary sustainability certification schemes like the RSPO, debate whether palm oil can ever be truly sustainable at scale, and highlight the efforts of local communities fighting back against corporate food imperialism.Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss out on the next episode!Resources from this episode:https://www.mtu.edu/social-sciences/department/faculty/robins/https://commoditiesofempire.org.uk/about/jonathan-robins/https://theconversation.com/profiles/jonathan-e-robins-1227071https://seapeat.wixsite.com/homehttps://cgsea.org/https://umexpert.um.edu.my/helenav To view all the links to the websites and documents, visit the show notes on our website.Please support our work and enable us to deliver more content by buying us a coffee or becoming a member of Athletes for Nature.Follow us on Instagram and Facebook, subscribe to this podcast, and share this episode with your friends and family.

What if the greatest obstacle standing between you and the life you're meant to live... is the story you've been telling yourself? In this deeply moving conversation, Kute Blackson sits down with Celine DeCosta, author of The Burning Ground, to explore what happens when life falls apart, not as a punishment, but as an invitation from the soul. Through heartfelt storytelling and profound spiritual insight, Celine shares how burnout, heartbreak, loss, and unexpected synchronicities became the catalysts for awakening to a life of deeper purpose, freedom, and alignment. Together, Kute and Celine unpack how our greatest wounds can become our greatest teachers, why the soul speaks in whispers while fear shouts, and how rewriting the meaning of our past has the power to transform our future. This is more than a conversation about healing. It's an invitation to trust life's unfolding, surrender what no longer serves you, and remember who you truly are beneath the stories you've carried for so long. If you've been feeling stuck, disconnected, or quietly wondering whether there's something more waiting for you, this episode may be exactly the message your soul has been waiting to hear.   Timestamps (00:02:15) – The invisible story that was quietly shaping Celine's entire life (00:07:07) – What if your greatest crisis is actually your greatest awakening? (00:12:31) – The radical decision that changed the course of her life forever (00:18:06) – How to leap into the unknown without blowing up your life (00:24:33) – How to tell the difference between fear... and the voice of your soul (00:32:00) – The mysterious encounter in Indonesia that awakened her true calling (00:41:43) – Rewrite your story, reclaim your power, and discover your deepest gift (00:54:40) – A final invitation to trust the unfolding of your soul's journey  Some Questions I Ask Why do some people seem unstoppable while others remain trapped in the same cycles? What finally gave you the courage to stop living the life everyone expected of you? How can someone tell the difference between the voice of the soul and the voice of fear? What happened during your journey that completely changed how you see life? How do we stop identifying with painful stories we've carried for years? What would you say to someone who knows they're meant for more, but feels too afraid to take the first step? In This Episode You'll Learn Why the story you've been telling yourself may be the very thing keeping you stuck. The surprising reason life's biggest breakdowns often become your greatest breakthroughs. How to tell the difference between fear speaking... and your soul calling. The hidden emotional addictions that quietly shape your choices and relationships. A powerful framework for transforming pain into purpose and reclaiming your authentic life. Why your greatest wound may actually hold the key to the life you were born to live.   Get in Touch: Celinne da Costa https://celinnedacosta.com Create a life that is a masterpiece.

It's the weekend “Get It Off Your Chest” episode — uncut, unedited, and full of the most random ramblings you won't hear on the weekday debates.Jeremy goes into full Karen mode over “invaders” having cans on his precious Dublin 18 green… and somehow it turns into a row about Satzenbrau, class snobbery, and whether you should be allowed drink in public at all.Then he takes aim at young people “living their best life” in Thailand, Patagonia and Indonesia — and claims that's why they'll never afford a house.And finally: are holiday brochures still a thing… or are you stuck in 1992?

China and Indonesia have pledged to deepen ties, with Beijing supporting stronger bilateral ties and Jakarta welcoming more Chinese investment and expanded Belt and Road cooperation.

VOV1 - Trang Jakarta Post của Indonesia đã đăng tin bài với tiêu đề “ Vì sao các nhà sản xuất xe điện chọn Việt Nam”, đánh giá các điều kiện giúp Việt Nam đón các ông lớn xe điện toàn cầu so với nhiều quốc gia khác, đặc biệt là Indonesia- quốc gia có lượng Niken lớn nhất thế giới.Hai tác giả bài báo là Victoria Fanggidae- giám đốc điều hành và Yuanda Pangi Harahap-  điều phối viên dự án tại The Prakarsa, một trung tâm nghiên cứu chính sách ở Jakarta. Bài báo đánh giá các điều kiện thuận lợi tại Việt Nam, bao gồm cấu trúc của chính sách nhà nước, phát triển nguồn nhân lực, giáo dục và sự hỗ trợ của nhà nước cho nghiên cứu và công nghệ nền tảng.Về chính sách công nghiệp,  tác giả bài báo cho rằng, Việt Nam  cung cấp các ưu đãi như miễn thuế doanh nghiệp lên đến 15 năm, miễn thuế nhập khẩu linh kiện, giảm tiền thuê đất và hội nhập sâu rộng vào chuỗi cung ứng toàn cầu. Những biện pháp này là một phần của chiến lược toàn diện, có thể dự đoán được, nhằm điều chỉnh các ưu đãi tài chính với quy hoạch cơ sở hạ tầng và nguồn nhân lực. Do đó, Việt Nam đã thu hút thành công các cam kết lớn từ các doanh nghiệp hàng đầu trong nước như VinFast và đảm bảo nguồn vốn đầu tư trực tiếp nước ngoài (FDI) khổng lồ vào sản xuất công nghệ cao.Trong Chỉ số Độ phức tạp kinh tế (ECI), thước đo mức độ phức tạp của rổ hàng xuất khẩu của một quốc gia, Việt Nam đã cho thấy sự tăng trưởng ổn định, từ vị trí thứ 69 năm 2012 lên vị trí thứ 45.Tiếp theo là sự sẵn sàng của lực lượng lao động. Việt Nam đã tích hợp sâu giáo dục nghề nghiệp vào chính sách công nghiệp tổng thể. Các chương trình đào tạo nghề của Indonesia phục vụ hàng triệu học viên mỗi năm, cấp chứng chỉ một cách có hệ thống cho hơn một phần tư tổng lực lượng lao động. Các chương trình này liên kết chặt chẽ với các ưu tiên công nghệ cao của quốc gia như chất bán dẫn và xe điện, đảm bảo sinh viên tốt nghiệp đáp ứng các tiêu chuẩn nghiêm ngặt của chuỗi cung ứng toàn cầu.Số liệu từ Cục Thống kê Indonesia (BPS) cho thấy hơn 60% lực lượng lao động của Indonesia chỉ có trình độ học vấn trung học phổ thông hoặc thấp hơn, một sự tương phản rõ rệt với các kỹ năng kỹ thuật tiên tiến mà ngành công nghiệp xe điện yêu cầu. Trong lĩnh vực sản xuất, hàng triệu công nhân đang hoạt động chỉ tốt nghiệp trung học phổ thông, so với một phần nhỏ có bằng cao đẳng hoặc đại học. Trong khi Việt Nam đối mặt với thách thức cấu trúc tương tự với tỷ lệ lao động chỉ tốt nghiệp trung học phổ thông cao, việc mở rộng giáo dục nghề nghiệp có mục tiêu đã nhanh chóng gia tăng số lượng người có bằng cao đẳng kỹ thuật và đại học, liên kết trực tiếp họ với sản xuất chính xác, robot và công nghệ pin. Cách tiếp cận tích hợp ngành này mang lại cho Việt Nam lợi thế cạnh tranh sắc bén, khiến lực lượng lao động Indonesia chỉ chủ yếu tập trung vào các vị trí đòi hỏi kỹ năng thấp đến trung bình.Tác giá bài báo cho rằng Indonesia từ lâu đã tuyên bố tham vọng lớn lao là đạt được tầm nhìn "Indonesia Vàng 2045", một kế hoạch biến quốc gia thành trung tâm sản xuất khu vực phát triển, có tính cạnh tranh cao. Là quốc gia sở hữu trữ lượng niken lớn nhất thế giới, nếu Indonesia muốn trở thành trung tâm đổi mới xanh chứ không chỉ là kho chứa niken thô, nước này cần khẩn trương xây dựng một hệ sinh thái mạch lạc, nơi các chính sách ổn định, kỹ năng tiên tiến và đổi mới trong nước hỗ trợ lẫn nhau./. Phạm Hà/VOV IndonesiaXe điện VN được giới thiệu tại Triễn lãm ô tô GIIAS tại Indonesia- VOV Jakarta

EPISODE 740 - Carter Vance - A story of living, loving and growing up on Canada's Parliament HillIn this engaging episode, author Carter Vance shares his writing journey with host Dave, connecting as fellow Canadians. Originally from the small town of Cobourg, Ontario—famous for its literal Big Apple roadside sculpture and summer beach—Carter credits a high school teacher's encouragement for launching his creative path. She connected him with local cafe owners for poetry readings, sparking his early involvement in plays, school magazines, and submissions to prestigious outlets like Arc Poetry Magazine, which offered a mentorship that honed his skills in audience focus, form, and resilience against rejections.Reflecting on advice he'd give his younger self, Carter emphasizes demystifying publishing, treating writing like a disciplined job—as Stephen King advocates with daily hours—and clarifying one's unique "why" amid abundant content. Creative writing, for him, captures intangible life moments and fosters empathy by letting readers inhabit others' minds, unlike film or music. His diverse career, including policy work in Canada, the UK, Indonesia, and Parliament (as a House leader staffer from 2015-2019 and Senate role), humanized politicians as flawed individuals, revealing unexpected alliances, young staffers' influence, and information's power in decision-making.Carter's debut novel, Smaller Animals (released November), draws from these experiences, following young Canadian political staffers' relationships and growth amid power dynamics—"smaller animals" behind the spotlight. Comparable to Arthur Phillips' Prague, Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises, or Sally Rooney's works, it appeals to politics enthusiasts and character-driven readers alike, requiring no deep parliamentary knowledge. He discusses staff autonomy, grunt work evolving to info control, and hopes readers connect personally while gaining insights into unseen influencers.Amid recent Canadian tragedies, Carter finds hope in political maturity, rising public engagement, and openness to change. Upcoming: a short story in Plentitude magazine, more writing, and ideas like a Berlin Wall saga. Key Takeaway: Writing thrives on encouragement, discipline, and authentic voice—craft stories that build empathy and unique perspectives, turning personal experiences into shared connections.https://cartervance.ca/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Beneath the noise of Jakarta's terminals and back alleys, a street vendor named Baekuni built a reputation for kindness; offering food, shelter, and quiet protection to the city's most invisible children. And for nearly seventeen years, that reputation served as the perfect disguise... until his true horrors were brought to the surface. The country was shocked when the mutilated remains of a young boy was discovered in 2010, leading investigators to uncover a disturbing pattern of exploitation and violence that had gone on for far too long. Part 1: We explore the conditions that allowed Baekuni "Babe" to develop into the monster that he would eventually become, and how he managed to remain undetected through nearly 2 decades. Part 2: We follow investigators as they pick up on the discovery of the young boy's mutilated body parts, and witness Indonesia reckon with the fact that they allowed such a monster to roam their streets for so long.

Daniel Suh spent a decade optimizing for prestige. Korean immigrant parents who left careers behind to start a small business in the US, a childhood spent moving apartments through bankruptcy, UCSD, five years in consulting to put his brother and mother through school, then an accelerated JD-MBA at Northwestern. He landed the big law summer and a private equity offer, the American dream on paper. He was elated for about ten minutes. "It felt like climbing a mountain for ten years. You get to the summit, and then you realize you climbed the wrong mountain the whole time." Today he is General Partner at Gold House Ventures, the cultural capital fund backing founders at the intersection of AI and creativity.  In this conversation with Jeremy Au, Daniel breaks down the second-generation guilt that pushes immigrant kids into careers they never chose, the high school demand letter that won back his family's security deposit in 24 hours, and why Gold House evolved from an Asian founder fund into something broader. He gets specific about what "cultural capital" actually buys a founder that money and introductions cannot, and why the backlash against AI is a narrative problem rather than a technology one. If nobody trusts the model, adoption stalls no matter how good the model is. Culture, not capability, is what moves people. A conversation for founders, VCs and operators across Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand and Malaysia who are quietly wondering whether they are climbing someone else's mountain.

CLiz Peek discusses the strong American economy, noting that small businesses feel relief as tariff threats abate and inflation falls. Lower energy and gasoline prices have cheered investors. Anecdotal evidence from local bookstores and ice cream parlors reinforces a positive outlook for consumer sentiment. (1)Liz Peek highlights the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America as a significant threat to established Democraticincumbents. Young voters are flocking to radical platforms promising free services. Rahm Emanuel emerges as a blunt voice for the party, urging a challenge against these "loons." (2)Jonathan Schanzer reports on the restart of hostilities in the Strait of Hormuz, where oil prices have hit $87 per barrel. The US is conducting air strikes against Iranian naval assets and drone bases. Schanzer questions why these strategic targets were not hit earlier in the conflict. (3)Jonathan Schanzer explores the Houthi threat in North Yemen and the potential for a wider regional conflict. While the US keeps Israel on the sidelines to avoid escalation, Turkey's "neo-Ottoman" ambitions are rising. Schanzer warns that Turkey seeks to fill the power vacuum left by Iran. (4)Mary Kissel analyzes the failure of the Iran ceasefire, noting that Iran calculated the US lacks the will for ground intervention. The conflict centers on Iran's suspect nuclear program, with potential new targets at Pickaxe Mountain. Public engagement remains low despite rising energy costs. (5)Mary Kissel discusses NATO's decision to reinforce Ukraine with advanced drone technology and Patriot missile manufacturing. Ukraine is hailed as the "future of warfare," transitioning from a security consumer to a security contributor. Kissel emphasizes the need for the US to counter Russian propaganda. (6)Joseph Sternberg examines Germany's economic struggles under Chancellor Friedrich Merz, including a shift toward deregulation and infrastructure borrowing. Massive layoffs at Volkswagen signal the end of traditional "lifetime employment." Merz faces political challenges from Social Democrats who resist aggressive free-market changes.

However, he acknowledges Ukraine's technological ingenuity in developing swarming drone capabilities for modern combat. (10)Gregory Copley highlights Australia's declining regional power as Indonesia and India rise strategically. China'smissile tests and interest in Antarctica further destabilize the South Pacific. As the Antarctic Treaty ends, a scramble for the world's largest oil deposits appears imminent.

Meanwhile, the UK faces rising anxiety over security for political leaders following the assassination of Ann Widdecombe. (12)Jeff McCausland discusses the closing of the Strait of Hormuz due to Iranian threats from land-based missiles and drones. President Trump faces a dilemma: muddle through, escalate with ground forces, or withdraw. McCausland warns that seizing territory like Kharg Island would result in significant casualties. (13)Jeff McCausland notes that Europe now views Ukraine as a security contributor due to its mastery of drone and robotic warfare. While Putin considers escalation or mobilization, Chinese pressure likely prevents the use of tactical nuclear weapons. The US continues to communicate "serious consequences." (14)Ernesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa condemn Gustavo Petro's refusal to recognize election results in Colombia. They criticize Brazil's President Lula for his silence on criminal leftist regimes. The "Shield of the Americas" alliance is emerging to defend regional democracy and fight corruption.

The seventh episode in a series on the history of Indonesia: a hinge in the world system where colonialism and revolution have decisively shaped the trajectory of global history. This penultimate installment analyses the 1998 fall of Suharto and his New Order dictatorship. Basic political freedoms were established but the transition to democracy never included a transition away from oligarchy. And it happened in the absence of a mass organized left — a left that had been destroyed through the mass anti-communist killings of 1965 and '66. We also trace the arc of three conflicts on Indonesia's colonial periphery that have decisively shaped its recent history: West Papua, East Timor, and Aceh.

He played in the big leagues, wore the Red Sox jersey, and had 14 surgeries trying to keep a dream alive. Then the career ended. And in the silence that followed, Ryan Kalish almost didn't make it through.  Ryan is not the kind of guest I typically have on this show. He doesn't have a bestselling book or a company that just crossed a hundred million. What he has is a story that stopped me cold on Instagram months ago. I was scrolling and I saw this guy on a street somewhere in the world, walking up to a man who was homeless, and he bathed him and gave him a haircut and got him some food. I thought: who is that? I looked him up. And I thought, "I have to have him on. "Ryan brings something to this conversation that is rare: the honesty of a man who was at rock bottom and didn't dress it up. He talks about the dark thoughts after his career ended, the substances he used to self-soothe, the spiritual calling that kept finding him even when he ran from it, and the moment sitting by a river in Austin, Texas, where it all clicked. He has now served orphans, refugees, and vulnerable people across Indonesia, Thailand, Uganda, India, Jordan, Tanzania, Egypt, and more, largely on his own dime. His 70-year-old father is his cameraman. I ask Ryan questions I think most people are afraid to ask: what does it actually feel like to do this? Is it lonely? Is it worth it? What did you have to let go of to get here? And I push Ryan on whether the hit he gets from feeding someone who's starving compares to circling the bases after a home run. His answer stops the conversation.    Here's what you'll gain from this episode: What to do When You're Feeling Helpless: The reframe that unlocks everything for anyone sitting in a hard season wondering what to do next. Your Old Identity Has to Die: What Ryan had to pluck out of himself to make room for who he was becoming, and why the most painful part of reinvention is also the most necessary. You Don't Have to Be Qualified: Why the people least likely to think they can make a difference are exactly the ones who should Collective Consciousness: Learn about the only thing that will actually change the world at scale.   This is an episode you will share with everyone you know!

It's just the two of us this week, which means we bounce between Star Wars, ageism in medicine, Mark Cuban's healthcare policy ideas, and the spleen. Kristin sent me a video about the Bajau people of Southeast Asia, a group of divers from Indonesia and the Philippines who have genetically evolved spleens that are 50% larger than average, which they use as an oxygen reservoir to dive 70 meters and hold their breath for up to 13 minutes, and look, I'm not saying I was wrong about the spleen, but I'm being forced to acknowledge it might have one useful function. We also talk about the 72-year-old medical school graduate who is now heading into a family medicine residency and the baffling ageist backlash she received from people who apparently think someone "stole a spot", in family medicine, where programs regularly can't fill their positions. She earned it, full stop. We get into Mark Cuban's argument that free medical school tied to service requirements could help fix the primary care shortage, I think he's closer to right than I initially gave him credit for, but the downstream problems are thornier than they look, and the direct primary care model, which makes a lot of happy doctors but probably has a selection bias problem. We also go deep on spleen physiology because Kristin is my heckler and this is the bit now: splenic lacerations, splenules, Howell-Jolly bodies in the blood post-splenectomy, and why losing your spleen means you really, genuinely need to be vaccinated against pneumococcus, meningococcus, and Haemophilus influenzae type b. Also, I had mono in college, did not follow the no-contact-sports instructions, and I only survived because Kristin wasn't around yet to enforce anything. She has since made up for lost time. Takeaways: The Bajau people of Southeast Asia have genetically evolved larger spleens. A 72-year-old woman earning her medical degree and entering family medicine isn't taking anyone's spot Free medical school tied to service requirements is a more interesting idea than pure loan forgiveness Losing your spleen significantly raises your infection risk from encapsulated bacteria Direct primary care attracts genuinely enthusiastic physicians, but that may partly reflect selection bias — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Beneath the noise of Jakarta's terminals and back alleys, a street vendor named Baekuni built a reputation for kindness; offering food, shelter, and quiet protection to the city's most invisible children. And for nearly seventeen years, that reputation served as the perfect disguise... until his true horrors were brought to the surface. The country was shocked when the mutilated remains of a young boy was discovered in 2010, leading investigators to uncover a disturbing pattern of exploitation and violence that had gone on for far too long. Part 1: We explore the conditions that allowed Baekuni "Babe" to develop into the monster that he would eventually become, and how he managed to remain undetected through nearly 2 decades. Part 2: We follow investigators as they pick up on the discovery of the young boy's mutilated body parts, and witness Indonesia reckon with the fact that they allowed such a monster to roam their streets for so long.
