Today, they're one of the largest Christian populations in Indonesia, with over 6 million believers. The transformation happened because someone, a German missionary named Ludwig Nommensen, decided their spiritual poverty was unacceptable. That was 190 years ago. Today, 4,473 people groups are still waiting for their Ludwig Nommensen moment. The People Group Adoption Program launches today, and here's how it works: It meets you where you are. You're not being asked to become a missionary in the field (though if God calls you to that, we'll cheer you on). You're being invited to use your current gifts, prayer, advocacy, networking, research to support those who are already called to go.
In this week's show we start with FOLLOW UP: The world keeps trying to protect kids online — Indonesia just joined Australia, Spain, and Malaysia in banning social media for under-16s, while COPPA 2.0 sailed through the US Senate unanimously. Meanwhile, Roblox is using AI to clean up its chat, because apparently "Hurry TF up" is the hill they've chosen to die on — even as they're still dealing with the whole "pedophile problem" thing from January. On the AI copyright front, Gracenote is the latest company to sue OpenAI for helping itself to proprietary data, joining a growing queue of plaintiffs who apparently didn't get the memo that everything is training data now.IN THE NEWS: Anthropic is suing the Pentagon after being labeled a "supply chain risk" — apparently because the CEO said AI shouldn't be used for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons, which the Trump administration heard as fighting words. The delicious irony: the Pentagon is still running Claude in active operations while trying to phase it out. Speaking of active operations, investigators now think a missile strike on an Iranian girls' school may have been triggered by bad AI-generated intelligence from that same Claude-based system. So yes, the autocomplete that hallucinates your grocery list is also maybe accidentally bombing schools. Meta's Oversight Board is begging the company to get serious about AI-generated content after a fake war video from a Filipino fake news account racked up 700K views — while separately, Zuckerberg dropped cash on Moltbook, a "social network for AI agents" that turned out to be mostly humans larping as bots and had a security flaw that exposed everyone's API keys. The guy who built it basically vibe-coded the whole thing. Meta's own CTO said he didn't "find it particularly interesting." And yet. Oracle is hemorrhaging jobs and drowning in debt chasing AI dreams, its stock down 50% from peak — a timely reminder that "AI will replace workers" is currently manifesting as "companies set money on fire and lay people off to pay the electric bill." Researchers confirmed AI is homogenizing human thought and creativity — a thing some of us have been screaming since day one. A DOGE engineer allegedly walked out of the Social Security Administration with databases containing personal info on 500 million Americans on a thumb drive. The Ig Nobel Prize is relocating to Switzerland because it's no longer safe to invite international guests to America. Nintendo is suing the US government to get its tariff money back. SETI thinks it may have been accidentally filtering out alien signals due to space weather. And Pokémon Go players unknowingly spent a decade building a centimeter-accurate surveillance map of Earth's cities that's now guiding pizza delivery robots — which, honestly, tracks.In APPS & DOODADS: The GOG clan in Clash Royale just hit eight years old — respect. OpenAudible is the cross-platform audiobook manager your Audible library deserves, especially if you've got over a thousand books sitting there judging you.And finally in MEDIA CANDY: Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 is here, and pretty beige. Live Nation settled its DOJ antitrust case for $200 million, kept Ticketmaster, and avoided a breakup — meanwhile court documents revealed employees joking about "robbing fans blind" and gouging "stupid" customers, which explains basically every concert ticket you've bought in the last decade. YouTube is now officially the world's largest media company at $62 billion in revenue. Bluesky's CEO is stepping down, which is either a bad sign or just the natural order of "person who built the cool thing hands it to the person who scales the cool thing." Dead Set — Charlie Brooker's 2008 zombie-in-the-Big-Brother-house miniseries — is worth a watch if you haven't. And trailers dropped for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 (March 24th), The Boys final season (April 8th), and The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (April 1st — yes, really).Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Sid Kim. Sid didn't become an entrepreneur by following a master plan. He taught himself how to write a business plan from a book, raised venture capital during the dot com boom, and found himself running a company before fully understanding what success or responsibility would actually demand. As the son of immigrants who rebuilt their lives from scratch, Sid saw entrepreneurship as a way to create stability and agency. In this conversation, he reflects on the lessons that came from early wins, sudden losses and building businesses across borders, and how those experiences reshaped his relationship with money, risk and purpose. Sid is a global entrepreneur and business expansion strategist with nearly 30 years of leadership experience across Asia and the United States. His career has centered on building, scaling and diversifying ventures that bridge cultures, markets and industries. As Founder of Vatos Urban Tacos, Urban Mix, Sid Burger & Craft Beer and KoMari, Sid has launched and managed over 20 restaurants and businesses across Singapore, Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and the U.S. As Chairman of Vatos Capital Partners, he continues to oversee concept creation, fundraising, investor relations and brand growth. At SAGE Partners Group, where he serves as CEO, Sid leads cross-border consulting initiatives helping Asian brands expand into the U.S. and guiding North American brands into Asia. From strategy and compliance to design-build and operations, he helps companies navigate the complexities of global expansion while focusing on execution and growth. Beyond F&B, Sid founded GolfX, Singapore's leading indoor golf facility, and serves on the Singapore Golf Association's Golf Development Task Force, promoting the sport's growth and accessibility in the region. Sid recently founded a golf import, export and distribution company for U.S. brands wanting to expand to Asia. A frequent speaker and mentor, Sid shares insights on international expansion, entrepreneurship and cross-cultural leadership with founders, executives, and students worldwide. A Fulbright Scholar and former UC Berkeley Graduate Scholarship Advisory Board member, he combines academic rigor with entrepreneurial instinct—specializing in business development, financial strategy and scalable global ventures. Risk, Reinvention and Redefining Legacy Sid's journey shows that money is more than a measure of success. From his immigrant upbringing to building businesses across continents, his story reflects a thoughtful evolution in how he approaches risk, ambition and stability. Wealth, when guided by intention, creates freedom to pivot, tell meaningful stories and invest in the next generation. Through open conversations with his son about investing and career choices, he illustrates that financial legacy is shaped as much by dialogue and example as by assets. Lessons about money come from experience and shared perspective. If you want to align your resources with the life and legacy you want to create, an Aspiriant advisor can help you design a strategy grounded in purpose and discipline.

Restrukturisasi besar di tubuh Tentara Nasional Indonesia membuka panggung baru bagi para perwira. Dari reinkarnasi Kaster TNI hingga Pangdam Jaya berbintang tiga, “teater para panglima” ini bukan sekadar mengurai bottleneck karier—tetapi berpotensi melahirkan elite militer yang kelak memengaruhi arah politik dan demokrasi Indonesia.
Pada 11 Maret 2011, pukul 14.46, bumi di lepas pantai Tohoku bergerak. Gempa M 9,1 memicu tsunami setinggi 40 meter yang menewaskan hampir 18.500 jiwa — lalu melumpuhkan tiga reaktor nuklir Fukushima Daiichi. Jepang, negara dengan sistem peringatan dini terbaik di dunia, tetap berduka. Di episode ini, Talk Disaster membedah mengapa — dan apa yang harus Indonesia pelajari sebelum giliran kita tiba.

Di tengah dinamika ekonomi global dan ketegangan geopolitik, serikat buruh dan para ekonom menilai perjanjian dagang antara Indonesia dan Amerika Serikat berpotensi memberikan manfaat bagi pekerja. Sejumlah aturan dalam perjanjian tersebut dinilai dapat memperkuat perlindungan tenaga kerja di dalam negeri. Ekonom sekaligus peneliti senior INDEF, Fadhil Hasan, menjelaskan bahwa perjanjian dagang antara Indonesia dan Amerika Serikat memuat sejumlah ketentuan yang berkaitan dengan perlindungan pekerja, salah satunya adalah pengaturan yang lebih ketat terkait praktik outsourcing atau alih daya tenaga kerja. Selain itu, standar upah minimum juga didorong untuk berlaku lebih luas, tidak hanya bagi industri besar, tetapi juga bagi industri menengah di berbagai sektor. Menurutnya, ketentuan tersebut justru dapat memberikan dampak positif bagi kaum buruh di Indonesia. Meskipun demikian, pemerintah dan para pemangku kepentingan tetap perlu mengawasi perkembangan ekonomi global, termasuk dampak konflik internasional terhadap perekonomian nasional.

Dibawakan oleh Yohanes Keluli Witak dari Stasi Santa Maria Perantara Rahmat Atawatung, Paroki Santo Bernardus Abbas Tokojaeng di Keuskupan Larantuka, NTT, Indonesia. Yeremia 7: 23-28; Mazmur tg 95: 1-2.6-7.8-9; Lukas 11: 14-23.TUHAN MENETAPKAN BATAS Renungan kita pada hari inibertema: Tuhan Menetapkan Batas. “Apakah Tuhan Allah memiliki batas?” tanyaseorang remaja kepada Pastor Parokinya. Jawab sang Pastor, “Ya, Tuhanmenetapkan batas-batas tertentu, ketika sejak manusia pertama, syaratsyaratditetapkan supaya manusia yang memiliki kebebasan itu harus bertanggung jawabatas kepercayaan yang Tuhan berikan. “Terus kenapa Tuhan dikatakan jugaselama-lamanya”? sangga remaja itu. Pastor lebih mendekatinya dan menjelaskan. “Jadi bagi Tuhan sendiri, Iatidak terbatas dalam kehendak, kemurahan, dan keberadaannya. Ia kekal dan tidakterikat oleh tempat dan waktu. Tetapi dalam memberikan ajaran dan perintahkepada manusia, Tuhan menetapkan batas-batas. Maka kita memiliki sejumlah batasberupa perintah-perintah-Nya seperti: jangan berbohong, jangan mencuri, janganberbuat cabul, jangan malas, dan seterusnya.” Setelah ia pahami penjelasanPastor dan kembali ke rumahnya, ia mulai menulis sejumlah perintah Tuhan yangharus diikutinya dalam bertingkah laku. Karena ia sering lupa akan tugas-tugasutamanya, ia menetapkan batas-batas keinginannya, yaitu bermain hp satu jam disore hari dan satu jam lagi di malam hari. Waktu yang lain ia pakai untukkerjakan apa yang diminta orang tuanya dan belajar mengulangi pelajaran sertamengerjakan tugas-tugas dari sekolah. Di dalam masa Pra Paskah ini,remaja tadi memiliki beberapa daftar berupa batas-batas yang mengontrolnya didalam bertingkah laku. Ia benar-benar mengikuti arahan dan nasihat dari PastorParoki dan orang tuanya. Secara umum kita sebagai pengikut Kristus dan anggotaGereja, Tuhan Allah menetapkan batas-batas umum untuk kita ikuti dan patuhi.Batas-batas umum tersebut berlaku bagi semua orang, setiap tempat dan segalazaman. Pada hari ini, melalui inspirasibacaan-bacaan liturgis, kita diingatkan tentang diri kita pribadi dan sebagaikomunitas umat yang beriman kepada Kristus, yang membentuk Gereja yang satu dankudus, sebagai orang-orang-Nya Yesus Kristus. Kita adalah bagian dari Yesus danbukan Setan. Identitas kita sebagai orang Kristen, yaitu orang-orang-NyaKristus merupakan batas umum yang kita jaga, banggakan dan pelihara. Dua seruan yang penting bagikita untuk hari ini ialah: kita menjaga batas ini dengan menjadi bangsa ataukomunitas orang-orang yang selalu mendengarkan Tuhan. Keras kepala, keras hati,dan memilih jalan sendiri, sangat bertentangan dengan identitas itu.Berikutnya, identitas ini kita pelihara dengan tetap selamanya bersama YesusKritstus, sebab Ia sendiri menegaskan bahwa tidak bersama Dia berarti menjadimusuh-nya Dia.Marilah kita berdoa. Dalam nama Bapa... Ya Yesus, terimakasih atas rahmat persekutuan yang menyatukan kami. Kemuliaan kepada Bapa danPutra dan Roh Kudus ... Dalam nama Bapa ...

Delivered by Vivian from the Parish of Saint Thomas the Apostle in the Archdiocese of Jakarta, Indonesia. Jeremiah 7: 23-28; Rs psalm 95: 1-2.6-7.8-9; Luke 11: 14-23. GOD SETS THE LIMITS Our meditation today is entitled: God Sets the Limits. “Does God havelimits?” asked a high school boy to his parish priest. The Pastor replied as hesaid, “Yes, God set certain limits, from the moment of the first human beings,that we basically have freedom but we must be also responsible for the trustGod has given us. "Then why is God also said to be forever"?continued the teenager. The priest came closer to him and explained to him morepassionately. “For God Himself, there is no limit in His will, His mercy, and Hisexistence. God is eternal and He is not bound by place and time. However, whenGod teaches and commands human beings, He sets the limits. So, we have a numberof limits or boundaries expressed in His commandments such as: “Do not lie, donot steal, do not commit fornication, do not be lazy, and so on.” After he understood the Pastor's explanation and returned home, hebegan to write down a number of God's commandments that he must follow in hisdaily life. He realized that he often forgot about his main tasks, then he setlimits on his many desires, namely playing on the cellphone one hour in theafternoon and another hour in the evening. He rather spent more of his times todo what his parents asked him to do and to review lessons or doing some home works. In this period of Lenten observance, the teenager has several lists oflimits that control him in his conducts. He strictly follows the direction andadvice of the Parish Priest and his parents. In general, for us the followersof Christ and members of the Church, the Lord God sets certain principalboundaries for us to follow and obey. These should be applied to all people,every place and all ages. Today, from the inspiration of our readings, we as persons andcommunity who believe in Christ and constitute the one and holy Church, confirmour commitment of faith. We belong to Jesus and not to Satan. We are part ofJesus and not Beelzebul. Our identity as Christians, namely people of JesusChrist and of God is our common boundary that we should maintain and guard. There are two important reminders for us today, namely we should keepwell this boundary, to be a community of people who always listen to God.Stubbornness and selfishness in choosing one's own path, is absolutely againstthis identity. Furthermore, we maintain this by remaining forever with JesusChrist, because He says that those who live outside of Him are against Him. Let'spray. In the name of the Father... O Lord Jesus, thank you for the grace ofunity that always keep us together as Your people. Glory to the Father and tothe Son and to the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father ...

Riêng Việt Nam đang phối hợp với Cam Bốt và những đối tác khác ở Đông Nam Á để triệt hạ các đường dây lừa đảo xuyên quốc gia. Trong một báo cáo được công bố vào năm 2023, Liên Hiệp Quốc ước tính hàng trăm ngàn người đã bị cưỡng bức tuyển dụng để thực hiện các vụ lừa đảo trực tuyến. Báo cáo mới, dựa trên lời khai của các nạn nhân và các cuộc phỏng vấn với các cảnh sát và đại diện của xã hội dân sự, mô tả các vi phạm nhân quyền nghiêm trọng mà những người bị buộc phải làm việc trong các trung tâm này phải gánh chịu. Báo cáo ghi nhận các trường hợp tra tấn, ngược đãi, bóc lột, lạm dụng tình dục, cưỡng bức phá thai, bỏ đói và biệt giam. Một nạn nhân từ Sri Lanka khai rằng những người không đạt chỉ tiêu hàng tháng về lừa đảo đã bị dìm xuống nước hàng giờ trong các bể nước (gọi là 'nhà tù nước'). Các nạn nhân cũng kể lại việc bị ép buộc chứng kiến, thậm chí tham gia vào những hành vi vi phạm nhân quyền nghiêm trọng này. Một nạn nhân người Bangladesh cho biết anh ta được lệnh đánh đập những người lao động cưỡng bức khác, và một nạn nhân người Ghana mô tả việc bị ép buộc phải chứng kiến bạn mình bị đánh đập. Một nạn nhân người Việt Nam kể lại việc em gái mình bị đánh đập, bị chích điện, bị nhốt trong phòng và bị bỏ đói trong bảy ngày vì đã toan đào thoát. Liên Hiệp Quốc lên án tình trạng những nạn nhân này bị xác định sai là tội phạm và bị truy tố hình sự, hoặc bị trừng phạt thay vì được bảo vệ. Từ nhiều năm qua, Cam Bốt đã trở thành “thiên đường” cho các tổ chức tội phạm điều hành ngành công nghiệp lừa đảo trị giá hàng tỷ đô la. Một báo cáo năm 2024 của Viện Hòa bình Hoa Kỳ ước tính doanh thu từ các vụ lừa đảo mạng ở Cam Bốt vượt quá 12,5 tỷ đô la mỗi năm, tương đương một nửa tổng sản phẩm nội địa (GDP) của nước này. Viện tư vấn Stimson Center, trụ sở chính tại thủ đô Washington của Mỹ, có một dự án về chống lừa đảo trên mạng, tập hợp các nhà khoa học cũng như các nhà hoạch định chính sách và cả đại diện các tập đoàn công nghệ như Google hoặc Meta. Sau ba năm thực hiện, vừa rồi họ đã tổ chức hội thảo tại Bangkok để tổng kết và đánh giá về những chiến dịch triệt hạ các trung tâm lừa đảo ở Cam Bốt. Tham gia dự án này có tiến sĩ Lương Thanh Hải, một nhà tội phạm học, hiện là giảng viên Trường Tư pháp hình sự và tội phạm học Griffith, Úc. Trả lời phỏng vấn RFI Việt ngữ ngày 05/03/2026, ông Lương Thanh Hải cho biết: "Hơn nửa năm trở lại đây, từ giữa năm 2025 cho đến đầu năm 2026, dưới áp lực mạnh mẽ từ cộng đồng quốc tế, từ Mỹ, Trung Quốc, Hàn Quốc và một số nước Đông Nam Á, chính quyền Cam Bốt đã mở một chiến dịch quy mô rất lớn nhằm triệt phá các khu phức hợp lừa đảo trực tuyến ( scams compound ). Tất nhiên để đánh giá một kết quả tổng thể đòi hỏi những số liệu cụ thể và hiện nay thì chúng tôi vẫn đang cập nhật để có số liệu cụ thể chính xác. Nhưng sơ bộ thì trong vòng nửa năm trở lại đây, chính quyền Cam Bốt đã đánh sập được gần 200 trung tâm lừa đảo. Có thể nói là đây là một con số khá ấn tượng. Trong cuộc tọa đàm vừa rồi, chúng tôi cũng đã tổng kết sơ bộ ít nhất có hơn 173 nhân vật cầm đầu đã bị bắt và khoảng trên dưới 11.000 người tham gia đã bị trục xuất khỏi Cam Bốt. Hàng ngàn người là nạn nhân bị ép lừa đảo đã thoát khỏi các trung tâm đó. Đầu tháng 2 vừa rồi, chúng tôi cũng ghi nhận, đặc biệt là sau khi quân đội Thái Lan tiến hành công kích và triệt phá các khu phức hợp, các sòng bài lớn ở Cam Bốt, người ta đã phát hiện các đối tượng sử dụng trang phục cảnh sát của ít nhất là 7 nước như Úc, Brazil, Việt Nam, Indonesia, Singapore v.v... Đây có thể nói là những bằng chứng rõ nhất cho thấy các ổ lừa đảo này hoạt động hết sức tinh vi, sử dụng các trang phục của lực lượng thực thi pháp luật nhằm tạo ra những kịch bản y như một cuộc thẩm vấn của cảnh sát liên bang Úc, hay của cảnh sát Việt Nam, cảnh sát Singapore..., để lừa đảo, thậm chí là đưa ra các kịch bản bắt bớ, khởi tố..., khiến các nạn nhân dễ bị đánh gục. Chính quyền Cam Bốt đầu năm vừa rồi đã đưa ra được một con số khá ấn tượng là đã giảm được khoảng 50% hoạt động lừa đảo trực tuyến sau các chiến dịch mạnh như vậy. Tất nhiên con số đó cũng cần phải được thẩm định. Ngoài ra một số trùm mạng lưới, đặc biệt là Trần Chí ( Chen Zhi ), một đối tượng cầm đầu đã bị chính quyền Hoa Kỳ phong tỏa các tài sản và dưới áp lực của Mỹ, Cam Bốt cuối cùng cũng đã triển khai các chiến dịch và bắt được trùm lừa đảo này. Đầu năm vừa rồi, Trần Chí bị dẫn độ theo yêu cầu của chính quyền Trung Quốc đưa về Trung Quốc xét xử. Giới nghiên cứu chúng tôi tiếp tục cập nhật và hy vọng chính phủ Trung Quốc sẽ công bố những thông tin minh bạch, cũng như các bản án cụ thể, để chúng tôi từ góc độ tội phạm học có thể phân tích sâu hơn tại sao và như thế nào mà một trùm lừa đảo như Trần Chí lại có thể đi sâu và điều hành cả một tập đoàn lớn như vậy ở Cam Bốt trong rất nhiều năm. Sau khi phá được nhiều chuyên án lớn như vậy, nhiều tổ chức quốc tế cho rằng các đường dây này chỉ tạm thời giải tán thôi và rồi sẽ lại di chuyển sang địa phận khác. Các hoạt động tuyển dụng lao động của những trung tâm lừa đảo vẫn tiếp tục trên mạng xã hội. Bởi vì xét đến cùng, công nghiệp lừa đảo này ở Cam Bốt vẫn có quy mô cực lớn, có thể kiếm siêu lợi nhuận hàng chục tỷ đồng mỗi năm. Nói cách khác, chiến dịch này đã gây xáo trộn lớn, nhưng chưa thực sự triệt tiêu được hệ sinh thái đối với loại tội phạm lừa đảo qua mạng này." Hơn nữa, không chỉ có người Trung Quốc hay người Cam Bốt, mà có cả người Việt Nam điều hành đường dây lừa đảo ở xứ Chùa Tháp. Theo báo chí Việt Nam, ngày 13/02, Công an Đồng Nai phối hợp Cục An ninh mạng và phòng, chống tội phạm sử dụng công nghệ cao (Bộ Công an) đã tạm giữ Nguyễn Thị Vân, 30 tuổi, cùng 13 người khác để điều tra hành vi Lừa đảo chiếm đoạt tài sản. Nguyễn Thị Vân được xác đinh là cầm đầu đường dây lừa đảo 2.500 tỷ đồng của hàng ngàn nạn nhân, hoạt động tại Cam Bốt. Các nhà điều tra cho biết đây là một trong những vụ án đầu tiên bắt giữ được chủ mưu là người Việt Nam, tự đầu tư cơ sở hạ tầng quy mô lớn và vận hành hệ thống lừa đảo tại nhiều địa điểm ở Cam Bốt. Ngày 25/02, đến lượt Cơ quan Cảnh sát Điều tra Công an tỉnh Tây Ninh ra thông báo tìm những ai là nạn nhân của Huỳnh Nguyễn Ngọc Huy trong vụ án lừa đảo qua mạng xã hội để mua bán người. Cụ thể, Huy dùng tài khoản Facebook "Huy Trần" đăng tin tuyển dụng giả giới thiệu các “việc nhẹ lương cao” để lừa gạt nạn nhân đưa sang Cam Bốt. Tại đây, các nạn nhân bị ép buộc làm việc, nếu muốn về nước phải trả tiền chuộc rất cao, hoặc bị bán tiếp sang các công ty lừa đảo khác. Nhà tội phạm học Lương Thanh Hải giải thích: "Qua nghiên cứu từ thực tiễn, cũng như về lý thuyết, chúng tôi gọi đó là sự trùng lặp, sự lặp lại giữa nạn nhân và thủ phạm. Chúng tôi hay dùng thuật ngữ offender - victim overlap. Họ là những nạn nhân đã bị dụ dỗ để sang làm, bị ép buộc, được đào tạo từng bước một, từng kịch bản một và thậm chí đóng các kịch bản lực lượng thực thi pháp luật của nước A, nước B, nước C để lừa ngược lại. Thậm chí khi bị nhốt vào các trung tâm lừa đảo này, họ bị ép buộc phải đạt được chỉ số KPI ( chỉ số đo lường và đánh giá hiệu quả hoạt động ), hàng ngày hàng giờ phải thực hiện bao nhiêu cuộc lừa đảo. Thành thử họ không còn lựa chọn nào khác, buộc phải làm ngày làm đêm, thậm chí phải lừa cả người thân trong gia đình, bạn bè của họ ở Việt Nam, lôi kéo sang để lại trở thành nạn nhân của các vụ lừa đảo qua mạng tiếp theo. Trong khoảng hai năm trở lại đây, công an Việt Nam cũng đã phối hợp khá chặt chẽ với các lực lượng thực thi pháp luật của khu vực Đông Nam Á, thông qua các kênh chính thống, ví dụ như ASEANAPOL, tức là Hiệp hội cảnh sát trưởng của các nước ASEAN, hoặc là thông qua các đối tác song phương giữa cảnh sát và bộ Nội Vụ của Vương Quốc Cam Bốt hoặc Thái Lan. Đã có nhiều cuộc giải cứu thành công, ví dụ mới đây công an tỉnh Tuyên Quang đã giải cứu và đưa được khoảng 74 nghi phạm từ Cam Bốt và Việt Nam trong một vụ lừa đảo lên đến hàng nghìn tỷ đồng. Hiện nay, Việt Nam được đánh giá là một những nước đầu tiên của khu vực Đông Nam Á đang hướng tới áp dụng nguyên tắc "không hình phạt" đối với nạn nhân, nếu như chứng minh được họ là nạn nhân của các vụ ép buộc lừa đảo trực tuyến. Điều này cũng đã được cụ thể hóa trong luật về phòng chống buôn bán người của Việt Nam được sửa đổi năm 2024 và có hiệu lực từ tháng 7/2025. Về góc độ chính sách và pháp luật, chúng tôi cho đấy là một trong những bước tiến rất đáng ghi nhận từ chính quyền Việt Nam." Một cơ sơ pháp lý khác để Việt Nam có thể tăng cường hợp tác với các nước để diệt trừ các trung tâm lừa đảo, theo ông Lương Thanh Hải, chính là Công ước Hà Nội: "Công ước Hà Nội, tức là Công ước của Liên Hiệp Quốc về phòng chống tội phạm mạng, đã được ký từ tháng 10/2025. Bản thân Việt Nam và Cam Bốt, cùng một số nước khác trong Đông Nam Á, có tham gia. Theo thống kê của chúng tôi, tổng số nước ký kết đã lên đến 73 hoặc là 75 nước. Đây là một bước tiến lớn về cơ sở pháp lý để tăng cường hợp tác quốc tế trong phòng chống các tội phạm mạng, bao gồm cả lừa đảo trực tuyến như các trung tâm ở Cam Bốt. Tuy nhiên, phần lớn những người Việt được phát hiện tham gia, thậm chí trực tiếp đi sang và cầm đầu các nhóm đối tượng ở Cam Bốt trong các trung tâm lừa đảo trực tuyến không phải là những "big boss", không phải là trùm của những ông trùm. Phần lớn những ông trùm đó vẫn là "behind the scene", vẫn đang tiếp tục lẫn trốn. Như trường hợp của Trần Chí chẳng hạn, phải mất rất nhiều thời gian mới bị phá vỡ và bị bắt. Thành thử những người Việt này thì chúng tôi đánh giá chủ yếu là đứng đằng sau điều hành các trung tâm lừa đảo Cam Bốt. Công an Việt Nam cũng đang tiếp tục khởi tố theo các nhóm tội lừa đảo, chiếm đoạt tài sản, hoặc tổ chức đưa người ra nước ngoài trái phép, tham gia trực tiếp vào các trung tâm lừa đảo đó. Các số liệu cũng như các bằng chứng cho thấy các đường dây này thường là dụ người Việt Nam bằng cái chiêu là "việc nhẹ lương cao", sau đó bán sang trung tâm lừa đảo. Các cơ quan công an Việt Nam trực tiếp cũng như phối hợp với lượng thực thi pháp luật các nước, trong đó Cam Bốt và Thái Lan, đã triệt phá các nhóm môi giới này trên các nền tảng xã hội, như Zalo hoặc Facebook và có nhiều trường hợp đã xử lý về tội mua bán người, hoặc tổ chức xuất cảnh trái phép. Chúng tôi cũng kỳ vọng Công ước Hà Nội, cũng như các cơ sở pháp lý khác trong khu vực ASEAN, đặc biệt là giữa các nước Việt Nam, Lào, Cam Bốt và thậm chí cả Thái Lan nữa, sẽ tăng cường hợp tác về thực thi pháp luật, trao đổi dữ liệu về tội phạm mạng, tiếp tục phối hợp giải cứu các nạn nhân và cũng có thể tiến hành dẫn độ, hoặc trao đổi các loại tài liệu liên quan đến điều tra, truy tố và xét xử trong quá trình triệt phá các băng nhóm từ nay cho đến cuối năm và trong thời gian tới."

The "Yunarmiya" or 'Youth army' is a movement that was founded in January 2016 by the Russian government. In total, more than 1.8 million children in Russia have joined the movement. As of May 2025, more than 120,000 Youth Army graduates served in the Russian army and other security forces. The Youth Army is also actively recruting Ukrainian children in occupied regions of the country. This began in parts of Ukraine even before Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022, in places like Crimea and Donbas. The children are taught to sing the Russian national anthem; kiss the Russian flag; dig trenches and handle guns. Zhanna Bezpiatchuk of BBC Ukrainian has been looking into how these Youth Armies operate in occupied regions of Ukraine. Simon Bolivar was a nineteenth century soldier and statesman who led six countries - Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Panama - to independence from the Spanish empire and earned himself the title of ‘El Libertador', the liberator. He left a huge legacy in South America and is still considered by many as a revolutionary hero. Growing up in Venezuela, Juan Alosno of BBC Mundo was very familiar with Bolivar's mythology, because it was taught to him in school. Even as a child, there were a couple of details that just didn't stack up for him.... so he set out to investigate. At the end of January this year, 6 people were caned in public for violating Sharia law in Aceh, Indonesia. Caning is a common punishment for breaking Islamic law in religiously conservative Aceh, although the practice has drawn criticism from rights groups who say it's cruel. Aceh has a unique identity within Indonesia, and is the only part of the country to practice Sharia. Astudestra Ajengrastri of BBC Indonesian explains Aceh's history and why it chooses to be different from the rest of Indonesia. This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world. Presented by Faranak Amidi.

Buddhist sutras tell of a distant future, where the teachings of the Buddha we know have been entirely forgotten. This future city, ruled by a benevolent, wise king, is a utopia, where people want for nothing and live for over 80,000 years. But even this paradise is still in need of a teaching, that nothing lasts forever.This is the world of the future Buddha Maitreya, also known as Metteyya, the Buddha of loving kindness. Exploring Buddhist texts like the Descending Birth of Maitreya Sutra, the Lion's Roar of Maitreya Sutra, and the Gandavyuha Sutra, we find timeless wisdom, a warning against false prophets, and a dramatic vision of the infinite potential of loving kindness.Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”Support the channel by subscribing, liking, and commenting to join the conversation!Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mythosandlogos00:00 Introduction00:10 Bodhisattva Maitreya, Indian Museum, Kolkata00:26 Gameplay from Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt Red01:08 Leaves from a Gandavyuha Manuscript, Asia Society, New York, Rockefeller Collection01:28 The Future Age01:39 Buddhas of the Three Generation by Ding Guanpeng02:11 Buddha Teaching the Ramaga Sutra 佛說羅摩伽經 by Shengjian 聖堅02:34 Leaves from a Gandavyuha Manuscript, Asia Society, New York, Rockefeller Collection03:20 Minimundus Klagenfurt, Borobudur Tempel Magelang, Detail, Schubbay, Creative Commons03:43 Mucailnda Protects the Buddha from the Rain, at Wat Olak Madu, Kedah, Photo Dharma from Sadao, Thailand, Creative Commons03:56 Universal Monarch, Phanigiri, Telangana, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Creative Commons04:22 Clothed statues of the Buddha in the ruined Khmer Hindu temple of Wat Phou, Champasak, Laos, Basile Morin, Creative Commons04:43 Maitreya, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney05:26 Miniature Votive Stupa, Cleveland Museum of Art05:38 The Buddha Amitabha with the Eight Great Bodhisattvas, The Asian Museum, San Francisco06:08 The Lion's Roar06:46 Maitreya Buddha Triad, Gyeongju Art Museum07:22 Hungry Ghosts Scroll, Kyoto National Museum08:30 Maitreya's Tower08:52 The Mong Xuanzang, Tokyo National Museum09:06 The Eighteen Arhats Traversing the Sea, The Museum of Chinese Art and Ethnography, Parma09:50 The Transmission of the Teachings of the Gelugpa Sect, The Asian Art Museum, San Francisco10:00 Seven Leaves from a Manuscript of the Gandavyuha Sutra, Cleveland Museum of Art10:16 View of Borobudur, Indonesia, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Creative Commons10:24 Maitreya, Museum of Oriental Art, Torino10:41 Maitreya Makes a Gift of a Throne, Borobudur, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Photo Dharma from Sadao, Thailand, Creative Commons10:52 Maitreya Makes a Gift of a Woman, Borobudur, Anandajoti Bhikkhu, Photo Dharma from Sadao, Thailand, Creative Commons10:58 Stone Buddhas of Yonghwasa Temple, Cheongju, Cheongju Early Printing Museum11:11 Sudhana's Pilgrimage to Fifty Five Spiritual Teachers as Described in the Flower Garland Sutra, Nara National Museum11:19 Conclusion: Nothing Lasts Forever.

The morning kicked off with the Bears releasing Tremaine Edmunds and a debate over social media's influence on team narratives. Also, ex-college basketball player Jarred Shaw's imprisonment in Indonesia reminds Gio of a TV show, and a look at Jets quarterback trade ideas involving JJ McCarthy and Kirk Cousins. Plus, Russell Westbrook's media confrontation, Ian Eagle's historic call of LeBron James breaking the field goal record, and Michelle Beadle's critique of Luke Kornet's stance on women. Jerry's also got NHL highlights, Juan Soto's World Baseball Classic comments, and Draymond Green's defense of Magic City. The show also included a mix of NFL tampering discussions, the coaching turnover for Jalen Hurts, and the bizarre story of Phillies broadcaster Ben Davis choosing to avoid the ER after a chainsaw accident.
Ex-college basketball player Jarred Shaw is imprisoned in Indonesia for weed gummies, sparking memories of the show Locked Up Abroad.

S&P futures are down (0.3%) and pointing to a slightly lower open today. Asian markets traded mixed on Friday, with Hong Kong the notable outperformer. Mainland China and Japan were modestly higher, South Korea and Singapore finished flat, and Australia underperformed. Indonesia saw the sharpest losses after Fitch downgraded its credit outlook. European markets are higher but remain on track for their worst weekly performance in a year, as energy price concerns and inflation risks dominate.

This week we acknowledge the US strikes on Iran and the escalation that has followed. The immediate human cost is what matters most right now. But this crisis is unfolding within a global system still shaped by oil markets and fossil fuel dependence - a dependence that amplifies regional instability and turns into global vulnerability.The same structural tensions sit at the heart of this week's conversation, recorded before these events. Indonesia is the world's fourth most populous country, one of its largest coal exporters, and a nation with every natural resource it needs to transition to clean energy. The problem isn't will, it's money. Who it's available to, and on what terms.Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac and Paul Dickinson are joined by Sri Mulyani Indrawati - Indonesia's former Finance Minister under three different presidents, former Managing Director of the World Bank, and one of the most credible voices in the world on exactly this set of challenges. She walks through what it actually costs to retire a single coal plant years ahead of schedule, why developing countries find themselves trapped by contracts they signed in good faith, and why the international finance system is making the transition harder, not easier.Countries like Indonesia borrow at far higher rates than wealthier economies, even as they face greater exposure to climate impacts. When that exposure feeds into credit ratings, the cost of capital rises, making clean energy investment more expensive precisely where it is needed most.In a system that makes decarbonisation harder for the countries most vulnerable to climate impacts, who pays?Learn More:
The U.S., Japan, and other G7 countries are scrambling to secure critical minerals to end their reliance on Chinese-controlled supply chains. Every week, there's news of another mining deal for cobalt, lithium, and other resources essential to powering 21st century technology. But the race to control critical resources may already be over. Decades before countries in the Global West recognized the importance of these minerals and metals, China quietly built out a vast network of mining and refining operations. Nicholas Niarchos, author of the new bestselling book "The Elements of Power: A Story of War, Technology, and the Dirtiest Supply Chain on Earth," joins Eric & Géraud to discuss the history of the battery metal competition and why China's early moves in this space may have given it an insurmountable lead.

Some of the most effective solutions for improving birth outcomes worldwide are rooted in relationships, not technology. In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker speaks with midwife Stephanie Marriott of the International Confederation of Midwives about the global impact of midwifery care. She outlines what defines a midwifery model of care, why continuity of midwife-led care matters for both outcomes and experiences, and how trust and relationship-based care can influence Cesarean rates, trauma-informed care, and access to services. Stephanie draws on her work across the U.K., Asia, and Africa to share how countries such as Indonesia and Bangladesh are strengthening midwifery education, regulation, and deployment, and what that means for maternal and newborn health. Together, Stephanie and Rebecca also discuss the essential role midwives play in humanitarian and disaster settings, the global shortage of midwives, and the growing call for One Million More midwives worldwide.
