Darlene Deibler went to Indonesia to preach the gospel to cannibalistic tribes. But when war broke out, she found herself plunged into the horrors of a WWII prisoner-of-war camp. And yet, Darlene would spend the rest of her life telling about a God whose comfort outshined her sufferings, whose presence was more precious than her losses, and whose loving provision was as faithful as the morning sun.
Minter Dialogue with Dr Chris Kerr (Re-release) In 2024, I released 47 new episodes and with listeners from 113 countries I want to acknowledge those who are listening from as far away as Argentina, Chile, New Zealand, Indonesia and South Africa. I want to thank you for all your support and words of encouragement. I am grateful to have your ear and precious time once a week. So to celebrate the new year, I wanted to re-release the top 3 episodes of the year in terms of popularity. And I found it deeply meaningful that the most popular episode was the conversation I had with Dr Chris Kerr. Dr Chris Kerr is a hospice physician and end-of-life researcher. He's also the acclaimed author of “Death is But a Dream” as well as one of the most viewed TEDx speakers, with over 5 million views for his talk, “I See Dead People: Dreams and Visions of the Dying.” In this conversation, we discuss his work, what he has observed about people dying and death, the way the medical community evaluates and embraces — or doesn't — death. We look at the difference between psychedelic-assisted therapy to deal with fear of death versus the types of the visions one has naturally. We touch on assisted suicide and euthanasia, as well as explore the major lessons Dr Kerr has extracted over the course of his fascinating 25+-year career. As profound as a conversation as I've ever had. You can also find the original show on Youtube here.

Peter Gelderloos argues that international governmental responses to the climate emergency are structurally incapable of solving the crisis. But there is hope. Across the world, grassroots networks of local communities are working to realize their visions of an alternative revolutionary response to planetary destruction, often pitted against the new megaprojects promoted by greenwashed alternative energy infrastructures and the neocolonialist, technocratic policies that are the forerunners of the Green New Deal. Gelderloos interviews food sovereignty activists in Venezuela, Indigenous communities reforesting their lands in Brazil and anarchists fighting biofuel plantations in Indonesia, looking at the battles that have cancelled airports, stopped pipelines, and helped the most marginalized to fight borders and environmental racism, to transform their cities, to win a dignified survival.

It's Friday, January 10th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Muslims block construction of church in Indonesia Muslims in Indonesia said they will sue Catholic leaders to prevent completion of a church building after months of construction, reports Morning Star News. The St. Anthony Catholic Church in Bandung, the capital of West Java Province, obtained building permits. However, attorneys for area residents claim they were granted through improper means and without their permission. Christians in Indonesia say they are routinely pressured to make extra payments known as “grease” – essentially a bribe -- to local officials or residents in order to obtain construction permits in the 83% Muslim country. In John 15:18, Jesus said, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” Judge temporarily blocks release of DOJ report on Trump case In America, Aileen Cannon, a Trump-appointed judge, ruled that special counsel Jack Smith's report on the federal classified document case against President-elect Donald Trump cannot be released pending more court proceedings, reports NewsNationNow.com. The move came after Trump's attorneys demanded that Attorney General Merrick Garland leave the release of the report up to the incoming administration. Back in July, Judge Cannon dismissed the classified documents case against Trump. She said Smith was illegally appointed. Smith's report was expected to be released “imminently” before objections by Trump's attorneys, saying the report would be “one-sided.” Trump wants Panama Canal back At a recent press conference in Mar-a-Lago, President-elect Trump outlined why he believes America should get the Panama Canal back. The 51-mile waterway, which was completed by America in 1914, connects the Caribbean Sea with the Pacific Ocean. It cuts across the narrowest point of Panama. The Panama Canal shortcut greatly reduces the time for ships to travel between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, enabling them to avoid the lengthy, hazardous route around the southernmost tip of South America. In 1914, 1,000 ships went through the Panama Canal. By 2012 however, more than 815,000 ships used the waterway shortcut. TRUMP: “The Panama Canal was built for our military. Look, the Panama Canal is vital to our country. It's being operated by China. China! And we gave the Panama Canal to Panama. We didn't give it to China. They've abused that gift. It should have never been made, by the way. “Giving the Panama Canal is why Jimmy Carter lost the election, in my opinion, more so maybe, than the hostages. The hostages were a big deal. It's a bad part of the Carter legacy. He was a very fine person, but that was a big mistake. We lost 38,000 people. It cost us the equivalent of a trillion dollars.” Gary Bauer, President of American Values, wrote, “Panama is likely in violation of the treaty it made with us when we handed over control of the canal. The treaty mandates that nothing be done at the canal that threatens America's security. But Panama has allowed communist China to gain footholds on both ends of the canal. Trump's strong language is what a president should say, which is why Joe Biden hasn't said it.” California fires claimed 2,000 buildings and 5 lives Many images of wildfire devastation coming over the newswires made the City of Angels look every bit like Hades: raging infernos, charred skeletal remains of homes, a smoke-filled sky, and weeping residents, notes The Hollywood Reporter. According to the Los Angeles Times, firefighters battled multiple blazes overnight as whipping winds, with gusts up to 100 miles per hour, fueled three major wildfires. The Palisades Fire burned more than 15,800 acres and numerous homes, businesses and landmarks in Pacific Palisades. It reached westward along the Pacific Coast Highway, toward Malibu. The Eaton Fire burned more than 10,000 acres and many structures in Altadena and Pasadena. And the Sunset Fire exploded around 5:45 p.m. yesterday and appeared to be burning south toward Hollywood Boulevard. More than 2,000 homes, businesses and other buildings have been damaged or destroyed and at least five people have died. Plus, 30,000 people evacuated their homes. Actor James Woods saves 94-year-old man in fire with phone call Appearing on CNN, actor James Woods tells a providential story about the fire. WOODS: “We have a neighbor who is 94 years old, who has dementia. I said there were no cars on the driveway. We would go over to help him get in his chair, you know, sometime, if he fell, with the caregiver. But I knew he was in the hospital. “God was on his side. I decided to call his son in Massachusetts and said, ‘Hey, Francis, just to be sure, your dad's still in the hospital, right?' He said, ‘No, he got home last night, and there's a new caregiver, and I don't have the number.' “They wouldn't let us back up. So, I finally got through to 9-1-1, and said, ‘You gotta go check on this guy.' I call my neighbor, who hadn't evacuated yet. He was on his roof, fighting his fire. I said, ‘Go in and check on him.' He went. He said, ‘The door's open, there's nobody here.' He went in and yelled. He said, ‘No, nobody here.' I said, ‘Look, just go behind the pantry. There's a little room. We can see him during the day. He likes to sit there because there's a garden. “He went in and found him. He'd been left alone. And it turned out the fire department made the new caregiver leave, and they said, ‘We're coming back for him.' Well, they hadn't come back for him. I'm hoping that they would have but, you know, there was so much chaos. “It was like an inferno. Every house was on fire around us, and he got him out, and the house burned down about an hour later.” Psalm 138:7 says, “Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You preserve my life.” With a broken heart, Woods revealed that his own house was consumed by flames after he evacuated. WOODS: “At 11:49 last night, all the smoke alarms in our house alerted our phones that our house that we had just renovated for three years and had just finally moved into about three months ago. You know, all the smoke alarms are going off, so that's hardly [gets emotional] a good sign. “So, I'm I'm not sure, but it it wouldn't make any difference, because, you know, the whole street's burned down. So, I mean, even if you go back to your home. We were out on our driveway. I looked at the smoke was so black. It was a house across the street was on fire. The house next door is on fire.” McDonalds abandons woke DEI policies, embraces “Golden Rule” And finally, fast food giant McDonald's is the latest major corporation to distance itself from the woke “diversity, equity, and inclusion” policies. Instead, they want to emphasize the “Golden Rule,” reports LifeSiteNews.com. Matthew 7:12 says, “"In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you.” The Associated Press reports that McDonalds plans to abandon specific diversity targets for senior leadership, end a program aimed at diversity training for suppliers, and pause participation in “external surveys,” such as those conducted by the radical homosexual pressure group called the Human Rights Campaign. McDonald's cited the “shifting legal landscape” after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that race-based affirmative action was unconstitutional in 2023 as contributing to the changes. Conservative activist Robby Starbuck, who has successfully pressured other companies to reverse woke policies, said he had informed McDonald's that he planned to release a report on them as well.

In the first half, author and physicist Stan Deyo discussed pressing global issues and advancements in technology. Reflecting on the current geopolitical climate, particularly the conflicts in the Middle East, Deyo said he sees the potential for World War III. "I think we're going to get real close to it very quickly," he stated. He believes that by 2025, tensions could escalate to a point where people might welcome alien intervention as a solution to these conflicts. "The people of Earth will cry out for someone to solve the problem," he claimed.The conversation then touched on the topic of gravity, with Deyo proposing that it could be harnessed as an energy source—a revolutionary technology that could provide electricity without traditional power grids. "We could have energy anywhere we are," he suggested.He also shared his views on climate change, which align with President-elect Donald Trump's skepticism. According to Deyo, the Sun's uncontrollable activity is the real cause of global warming, but those in power want the public to believe it's a man-made problem, thereby giving the population a sense of control. "[Climate change] is a scam... but I think it may be a necessary scam," he argued.On the topic of artificial intelligence, Deyo expressed alarm at its rapid development. He warned that if AI is allowed to reprogram itself, then "we've created a beast." He predicted that a future world government might rely heavily on AI for decision-making, emphasizing its speed and efficiency compared to human capabilities. "It thinks at about 100 million times faster than a human can," he pointed out.-------------------In the second half, renowned cryptozoologist Loren Coleman shared insights on various legendary creatures. Coleman, who has made dozens of appearances on the show, reflected on his professional journey from working as a researcher to becoming the director of the International Cryptozoology Museum. "If I'm going to have a legacy, I might as well be in charge of founding a museum," he joked.Coleman maintained that "about 80% of the things I look into are misidentifications," but that 15% could potentially be new species. He mentioned that while Bigfoot remains a popular subject, interests in creatures like chupacabras and Mothman fluctuate over time. Regarding the elusive Bigfoot, Coleman reflected on historical discoveries, asserting, "We're still in the early stages of collecting evidence." He explained that while there have been many recent sightings, the quest for definitive proof continues.Coleman also discussed several other cryptids, including Mothman, which he described as "over-human-sized" and tied to Native American lore. He cautioned that many recent sightings, particularly in Chicago, might be misidentified balloons or drones. Regarding the Dogman, he suggested that some reports could actually be misinterpretations of Bigfoot. "There's less evidence there [for Dogman] than for Bigfoot," he remarked.He also touched on chupacabras, describing two types: one resembling a dog and another with a more humanoid form. Coleman then expressed optimism about the Orang Pendek, a small ape-like creature from Indonesia, saying, "Of all the cryptids we're talking about tonight, the one that will be found next, I think, will be the Orang Pendek."Coleman concluded by discussing the coywolf, a hybrid between coyotes and wolves, and the potential existence of the dodo bird, asserting that "there are still some remote and quite undiscovered areas" where these birds might be hiding.
Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Saline Supply Secured Through Lunar New Year Y F Chemical Corporation, Taiwan's largest saline producer, has resumed full production after addressing violations that halted operations last year. The Health Ministry announced that saline supplies are now sufficient (充足的) to meet hospital needs through the Lunar New Year. Other manufacturers have increased output, and imported saline stocks remain high, with hundreds of thousands of bags in reserve. While a global shortage of soft-bag saline packaging caused recent delays, officials expect supply to stabilize next week. The FDA has coordinated with manufacturers to prioritize deliveries for any reported shortages. Hospitals have also increased their inventories ahead of the holiday season to ensure uninterrupted care. Record NT$1.05 Billion in Lunar New Year Lottery Prizes Taiwan Lottery announced a record $1.05 billion NT in bonus prizes for this year's Lunar New Year lottery. The prizes will be drawn daily over 20 days from January 24th to February 12th, covering popular games like Lotto 6/49, Daily Cash, and Bingo Bingo. The Lotto 6/49 top prize will be $100 million NT, while the Big Red Envelope game offers up to $1 million NT per winner from a prize pool of $480 million NT. Smaller prizes are also available through additional (額外的) draws, including the Small Red Envelope game. For Bingo Bingo, prize amounts will increase during the holiday lottery period. This year's Lunar New Year bonus prizes are the largest ever. UN: Syrian Refugees Desperate Conditions The United Nations is warning more than 125,000 Syrian refugees are facing "desperate conditions" as they return to their home country. The UN's refugee agency U.N.H.C.R says many people have arrived back in Syria following last month's fall of the Assad regime. But families find themselves with little shelter and few economic prospects (前途). Sally Patterson reports from New York. Ukraine Zelenskyy Austin on Trump Presidency Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin used their final meeting in Germany to press the incoming Trump administration not to give up on Kyiv's fight. Austin warned that to cease military support now “will only invite more aggression, chaos and war.” President-elect Donald Trump's pronouncements about pushing for a quick end to the war and his kinship (親切感) with Putin have triggered (觸發) concern among allies. But Austin said "no responsible leader will let Putin have his way.” And while Austin acknowledged he has no idea what Trump will do, he said the international leaders gathered Thursday in Germany talked about the need to continue the mission. UN Forecasts Modest World Economy Growth The United Nations says the world economy resisted battering by conflicts and inflation last year and is expected to grow a subdued 2.8% in 2025. The U.N. projected last January that global economic growth would be 2.4% in 2024. It said Thursday that the rate was estimated to have been slightly higher, at 2.8%. Both remain below the 3% rate the world saw before the COVID-19 pandemic started in 2020. In their 'World Economic Situation and Prospects 2025, U.N. economists wrote that their positive prediction was driven by the strong but slowing growth forecast for China and the United States and by robust (旺盛的) performance anticipated for India and Indonesia. The European Union, Japan, and United Kingdom are expected to experience modest recovery. That was the I.C.R.T.

Mistisisme seakan telah menjadi unsur yang esensial dalam peradaban manusia. Mulai dari sejarah awal ketika era Mesopotamia kuno, Yunani, hingga era modern, masyarakat seluruh dunia selalu memiliki hubungan yang spesial dengan hal-hal berbau mistis. Khususnya kepada kelompok yang sering dianggap memiliki ikatan kuat dengan hal-hal gaib. Yess, kalau di Indonesia, para dukun dan orang pintar nih. Menariknya, bentuk kepercayaan kepada para dukun dan dunia mistis juga ternyata ditunjukkan oleh para pemimpin negara. Ketika peristiwa pemakzulan Presiden Korea Selatan, Yoon Suk Yeol kemarin misalnya, muncul kabar bahwa ternyata ada sosok spiritual yang menjadi pemantik status Darurat Militer. Sosok tersebut adalah Noh Sang-won, Kepala Komando Intelijen Angkatan Darat yang disebut menjadi penasihat spiritual Yoon, dan membisikkan kepadanya untuk terapkan status Darurat Militer sejak tahun 2023. Sementara di Indonesia sendiri kepercayaan kepada dukun paling kentara ketika era Presiden Soeharto. Kala itu, Soeharto memiliki penasihat spiritual bernama Sudjono Humardani, sosok jenderal yang juga dikenal sebagai "Menteri Dukun"-nya presiden Indonesia ke-2 tersebut. Lalu, mengapa dunia politik yang penuh kalkulasi bisa begitu erat dengan unsur mistis? Apakah peran penasihat spiritual ini benar-benar nyata, atau justru ada intrik politik dan psikologis di baliknya? Well, inilah misteri mistisisme politik global!

The crocodiles in Indonesia are getting sneaky
It's Thursday, January 9th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus 300 million Christians worldwide face imprisonment, torture, and murder International Christian Concern released its 2025 Global Persecution Index, highlighting 20 countries where Christians face extreme persecution. Among those countries are Nigeria, Iran, India, China, and North Korea. Over the last year, persecution has worsened dramatically in Nicaragua, India, and Nigeria. Christians face everything from government hostility and Hindu nationalism to brutal violence and technological surveillance. Jeff King with International Christian Concern said, “Approximately 300 million Christians worldwide face persecution of all types, including imprisonment, torture, and assassination.” Despite persecution, Christianity is showing resilience and even growing in countries like Iran and Indonesia. Indonesia joins Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa group Speaking of Indonesia, the Southeast Asian country, which is also the fourth most populous country in the world, joined the BRICS organization on Monday. The intergovernmental organization began with Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – thus the acronym B-R-I-C-S. It has expanded to include Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates. The BRICS group is seen as a counterbalance to western powers in the G7 which includes Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. 70,000 Californians evacuate as 20,000 acres burn In the U.S., three major wildfires brought destruction to the Los Angeles area of California yesterday. The fires have burned over 20,000 acres, destroying over 1,000 buildings and killing at least two people. 70,000 people are under evacuation orders. Stoked by high winds, the Palisades Fire is the most destructive fire on record in Los Angeles County. As of yesterday, the fires were 0% contained. James Nelligan, a resident of Los Angeles County, texted, “It's super smoky; ash is raining down.” 87% of Congress are self-identified Christians Pew Research released their latest Faith on the Hill report, covering the religious composition of the 119th U.S. Congress. Self-identified Christians now make up 87% of voting members in the Senate and House of Representatives combined. That's down just a smidge from 88% in the last session and 92% a decade ago. It's still much higher than the Christian makeup of the general U.S. adult population at 62%. Also only 1% of Congress is religiously unaffiliated compared to 28% of the general public. Protestants continue to be the largest group in Congress at 55% followed by Catholics at 28%. However, the share of Protestants is down from nearly 75% in the 1960s. In 2 Samuel 23:3, King David said, “The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spoke to me: ‘He who rules over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.” 4,000 people have asked Trump to free imprisoned pro-lifers Over 4,000 people now have signed a petition through change.org for President-elect Donald Trump to free imprisoned pro-lifers. The petition includes the names of many pro-lifers who are facing prison, house arrest, charges, or sentencing for peacefully protesting at abortion mills. The petition to Trump says, “We ask you to reverse the weaponization of the Department of Justice and pardon these individuals, whose only crime was peacefully pleading for the lives of babies about to die. More than this, we beg you to consider the case for the preborn who have been sentenced to death with no trial. They are unseen and unheard, totally dependent on others, and completely vulnerable.” You can sign the petition through a special link in our transcript today at TheWorldview.com. Anniversary of Jim Elliot's murder And finally, this week in history marks when five Christian missionaries — named Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Roger Youderian, Ed McCully, and Pete Fleming — were speared to death by Ecuadorean Indians they sought to evangelize. They died on January 8, 1956. Jim Elliot had famously said, “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” Remarkably, after their murders, Jim's wife, Elisabeth Elliot, and Nate's sister, Rachel Saint, continued the evangelistic outreach to the very people who had killed their relatives. In October 1958, Mrs. Elliot, and her three-year-old daughter Valerie, went to live with the Indian tribe along with Rachel Saint. Elisabeth Elliot later published two books featuring the story of the missionaries and how God used them.

Vietnam, Indonesia e Malaysia sono tre paesi che crescono, sono economie che vedono nascere campioni nazionali che si stanno imponendo sul complicato mercato asiatico, specie quello tecnologico. Sono paesi attrattivi per gli investimenti esteri, anche perché hanno mercati interni trainati dai milioni di cittadini considerati appartenenti alla middle class. E sono paesi nei quali le classi medie rappresentano una cartina di tornasole di tante trasformazioni economiche e sociali che sembrano in costante divenire e che ci raccontano, in fondo, tre cuori pulsanti del continente.

This week's show features stories from Radio Deutsche-Welle, France 24, and NHK Japan. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr250110.mp3 (29:00) From GERMANY- Trump said that he would like to incorporate the Panama Canal and Greenland into US territory. While some in the US consider this distraction politics, the notions have raised concern in the rest of the world. An interview with Victoria Herrmann, a Senior Fellow at the Arctic Institute, discusses why Greenland has been of military and economic interest to the US for 100 years. She describes the independence movement in the island and the desire for marketing resources. Canadian PM Trudeau announced his resignation that will not take effect until Parliament reconvenes in March. RDW found that the German government has cut funding for several human rights organizations that have been critical of Israeli actions in the current war in Palestine. One of the groups defunded is New Profile, an Israeli movement which supports conscientious objectors and a civilian society. From FRANCE-A very interesting week for international press reviews. First, a Panama paper says Trumps threats show imperialism continues- then a Danish and a Greenland paper have different takes on the US interest in Greenland. Elon Musk is getting many headlines in the European press, from his dissipated support for British right wing leader Nigel Farage, to his attacks on the PM Starmer. Then a report on Musk versus Starmer and the UK government- French President Macron accused Musk of supporting a new reactionary international movement. Finally press reviews on the end of fact-checking on Meta applications. From JAPAN- In response to Biden canceling the sale of US Steel to Nippon Steel, both companies filed a lawsuit. The WHO says cases of Human Metapneumovirus, HMPV, are rising in China but within an expected range. Indonesia is the first SouthEast Asian country to have full membership in the BRICS economic group. Vietnam has the third largest trade surplus with the US. The EurAsia group says 2025 will be the most geopolitically dangerous year since the Cold War.

In the fourth and last episode of the governance building block we dive into the discussion of social dialogue and social protection for informal workers. But what does social dialogue actually mean? How can in be used as a tool to improve social protection schemes to better include informal workers? What are the aspects we should look at when analysing these spaces and what are the main barriers workers in the informal employment face to access them? To help us understand these questions we invited two guests. First, we are going to talk to Jane Barrett, who will set the stage and introduce us to the main aspects of social dialogue, the power dynamics and how these spaces should work. Jane is the former Organization and Representation programme director at WIEGO. She has extensive experience in collective bargaining, membership recruitment and organizing, trade union membership and leadership education, research and policy advocacy. In the second part of the episode we talk to Aura Sevilla, who will talk about the concrete social dialogue experiences in Southeast Asia. Aura is the Southeast Asia focal point of the Social Protection programme at WIEGO. She has been working in a study report analysing six countries in the region: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Myanmar, the Philippines, and Thailand. *Our theme music is Focus from AA Aalto (Creative Commons) References Informal workers and dialogue for social protection, Social Protection Responses to COVID-19 #3, by Annie Devenish and Cyrus Afshar https://www.wiego.org/social-protection-responses-covid-19/ Social Dialogue for the Transition from the Informal to the Formal Economy, by Global Deal https://www.wiego.org/research-library-publications/social-dialogue-transition-informal-formal-economy/

Description: At 24 years old, Jennifer Hatmaker was parenting her first diaper baby on no sleep as a stay-at-home mom and pastor's wife. By contrast, Jen's second-born, Sydney Hatmaker, spent half of her 24th year on a gap year travelling the world and banking a lifetime of memories. In this special two-part conversation, Sydney walks us through some of the best moments and lessons learned from her life-changing adventure, beginning in May in Berlin and ending in October in Vietnam. With stops along the way in Sicily, Turkey, Portugal, Spain, Malaysia, Indonesia, India, and Thailand, Sydney gives us some of her best tips for travelling solo on a shoestring budget. It might entail a 40-hour journey taking a car to a bus to a ferry to a bus, to another ferry, to a train, to a taxi, to a scooter, to a hostel, all to save $60, but the point is it can be done and she's here to inspire us all with tales from her adventure. Highlights from this conversation include: In our GenXcellence Travel-Edition, we reflect on what travel was like for us in the 80s-90s, before satellites and cell phones and Expedia (Sydney has never heard of Traveller's Cheques) Sydney gives us her best tips for getting into one of the world's most popular techno clubs in Berlin (shh! It's very hush-hush!) We learn about surfing camp on the coastline of the Portuguese Riviera Why you need to budget more for European travel than Asian travel and how you can eat in Asia on $4 a day Sydney talks about learning to be comfortable travelling on her own and being in her own company – something she thought she was already good at but was pushed to new limits And a lot more….. Be sure to tune in for part two of our conversation next week to hear how the story ends. *** Thought-provoking Quotes: I didn't have a phone for the last two months of my trip. I still had a laptop so when I was at the hostel on wifi, I could do research and book things but it was a different kind of travel. I made the most of it and it ended up being a bit of an adventure.I obviously had an initial reaction of panic (not having a phone) but then I felt this complete freedom. – Sydney Hatmaker I did have some big ideas that I would get something out of my system on this trip, that I would come home and settle down, get a real job, root down in one place but halfway through my trip I realized there is so much more (in the world) that I want to see. There's so much to do, so much to see and explore and so many ways to make it happen. – Sydney Hatmaker Travelling feels different and way more real when you're by yourself. I love my own company and my company is better than some random person that I'm not really connecting with. And realizing that, makes it really easy to connect with more people. – Sydney Hatmaker Resources Mentioned in This Episode: The 9 Enneagram Types Descriptions - https://www.enneagraminstitute.com/type-descriptions/ Skyscanner - https://www.skyscanner.com/ Rick Steves Travel Guides - https://amzn.to/41mKeFX Berghain Techno Club in Berlin - https://bit.ly/4gfaMNq Sagrada Familia - https://sagradafamilia.org/en/ Jen's MeCamp - https://bit.ly/3D1qX2I The Banana Pancake Trail - https://trail.bananabackpacks.com/banana-pancake-trail/ Hostel World - https://www.hostelworld.com/ Pyramid Yogshala Yoga School - https://pyramidyogshala.com/ Guest's Links: Connect with Jen!

This week we were on the road in Oklahoma City and had the exciting opportunity to sit down with Dr. Ann Bluntzer Pullin, Executive Director of the Hamm Institute for American Energy at Oklahoma State University. Ann was appointed to Executive Director in August and has over 25 years of experience in higher education as a professor and administrator, most recently serving as Executive Director of the Ralph Lowe Energy Institute at TCU's Neeley School of Business where she served in several leadership capacities for a tenure of eleven years. Ann started her career as a Foreign Service Officer in Education and Agriculture and served in Poland, Lithuania, Indonesia, and Australia. Established in 2021, the Hamm Institute is at the forefront of energy geopolitics and international energy security initiatives, in addition to driving technological and policy innovations through research to address domestic and global energy challenges. It was our pleasure to visit with Ann on-site at the Hamm Institute to discuss their latest updates and observations on today's energy world. In our discussion with Ann, we explore the critical intersection of energy security and national security, the Hamm Institute's mission to foster informed dialogue around energy and economic growth, and the importance of partnerships with responsible energy producers to improve global security and sustainability. Ann shares insights from a recent trip to Taiwan, Korea, and Japan with Governor Stitt of Oklahoma, highlighting discussions with energy ministries, economists, and industry representatives about the energy security challenges faced by these countries, as well as the global trend to prioritize national interests and how a strong and self-reliant America can serve as an example for other nations. We touch on the role of the U.S. in exporting natural resources and fostering energy security, the challenge of balancing short-term geopolitical stability with long-term innovation and sustainability, the Hamm Institute's efforts alongside OSU to shape global energy discussions and support developing nations' energy needs, the potential for Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy's DOGE initiative to disrupt conventional thinking, the positive opportunity for media to bring awareness to government issues and necessary reforms, and much more. We greatly enjoyed the discussion and appreciate the important contributions Ann and the Hamm Institute team are making around energy, particularly with issues around national security and energy security and how they are completely intertwined. Thanks to Ann for joining and thanks to you all for your friendship and support!

Pinn Lawjindakul, Partner of Lightspeed Southeast Asia and Jeremy Au discussed: 1. Bain Consultant to Grab Head: Pinn recounted her shift from Bain & Company, where she started as an intern in 2011, to joining Grab in 2015 during its rapid expansion. She highlighted the operational and cultural differences between consulting in San Francisco and Southeast Asia, noting the latter's more hierarchical and less mature environment. At Grab, Pinn tackled challenges such as competing with Uber, Easy Taxi, and Rocket Internet, emphasizing the importance of localized operational advantages. 2. Tiger Global to Lightspeed VC Partner: Pinn reflected on her pivotal time at Tiger Global (2016–2019), where she immersed herself in growth-stage investments like Flipkart. The fast-paced environment and exposure to trend-driven, data-backed decision-making helped her realize the impactful nature of venture capital. This experience solidified her passion for working closely with entrepreneurs and shaping transformative businesses. Transitioning to Lightspeed Ventures, she embraced a focus on early-stage startups in Southeast Asia, drawn by the opportunity to guide founders from the outset and help them adopt a regional mindset critical for success 3. Southeast Asia vs. China & India: She highlighted Lightspeed's report, which debunked the longstanding comparisons of the region to China and India. The report argued that Southeast Asia's fragmented markets, diverse consumer profiles, and smaller economic scale require a unique approach, defying the traditional narratives borrowed from larger, more homogenous markets. They also championed Singapore's underestimated potential as a key driver of economic growth, countering the conventional wisdom that focuses almost exclusively on larger markets like Indonesia, e.g. Gojek vs. Grab. Pinn also highlighted the need for a more rational approach to capital allocation, underscoring how sustainable growth requires founders and investors alike to balance ambition with market realities. Jeremy and Pinn also discussed her perspective being a parent has changed her perspective on startups, what they learned as Bain interns and what advice she would give her younger self. == Pinn is a founding member of Lightspeed Southeast Asia, a global early-stage investment fund. Prior to Lightspeed, she was at Insignia Venture Partners and Tiger Global Management, where she focused on consumer and financial technology across SEA, India and China. She worked closely with Flipkart (sold to Walmart), Ola, Policybazaar, Hike, Games 24x7, Razorpay, Uxin (IPO exit). Pinn started her career as a management consultant at Bain & Company and also founded Grab's motorcycle-on-demand in Bangkok, Thailand. Pinn graduated from Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania with a double degree in Psychology and Finance. === Watch, listen or read the full insight at www.bravesea.com/blog/navigating-sea-markets Nonton, dengar atau baca wawasan lengkapnya di www.bravesea.com/blog/navigating-sea-markets 观看、收听或阅读全文,请访问 www.bravesea.com/blog/navigating-sea-markets Xem, nghe hoặc đọc toàn bộ thông tin chi tiết tại www.bravesea.com/blog/navigating-sea-markets Get transcripts, startup resources & community discussions at www.bravesea.com WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VakR55X6BIElUEvkN02e TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jeremyau Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremyauz Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeremyau LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/bravesea Spotify English: https://open.spotify.com/show/4TnqkaWpTT181lMA8xNu0T Bahasa Indonesia: https://open.spotify.com/show/2Vs8t6qPo0eFb4o6zOmiVZ Chinese: https://open.spotify.com/show/20AGbzHhzFDWyRTbHTVDJR Vietnamese: https://open.spotify.com/show/0yqd3Jj0I19NhN0h8lWrK1
