Peaceful Week

This week has been incredibly calm and productive. I have spent a lot of time at the mosque and Chi Liung Park to maintain peace of mind and take care of my health through exercise.

The United States and the Late Empire Syndrome: Towards Political Decay?

Image
Since its independence in 1776, the United States (US) has cultivated a political culture deeply rooted in the principle of "anti-monarchy." The establishment of institutions such as Congress and the Supreme Court was designed to ensure a system of checks and balances that would prevent the rise of authoritarian leadership. The historical context is clear—the US was founded through a struggle against British monarchical rule, with monarchy often associated with tyranny and oppression. The first US President, George Washington, rejected the suggestion of becoming a lifelong leader, despite his close associate, Alexander Hamilton, proposing a model resembling a king without a crown. By setting a precedent of serving only two terms, Washington reinforced a tradition that was respected for more than a century. However, Franklin D. Roosevelt broke this norm by serving four terms before Congress ultimately passed the 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution, limiting the presidency to...

Recently, Tupperware filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Many are wondering if this marks the end for a brand that has long been synonymous with high-quality food storage containers.

Today, GM has returned as one of the largest car manufacturers in the world, with an annual revenue of $48 billion. 2. Marvel Entertainment Marvel nearly went bankrupt in 1996, but they soon began releasing films like X-Men and Spider-Ma...

Rupiah Redenomination: A Step Towards Efficiency or a New Challenge? Bank Indonesia has once again raised the prospect of rupiah redenomination, a process of simplifying the currency’s numerical value without altering its real worth. For instance, Rp 1,000 would be redenominated as Rp 1. This initiative aims to enhance transaction efficiency and reduce the risk of miscalculations due to excessively large nominal figures. However, Bhima Yudhistira, Director of the Center of Economic and Law Studies (CELIOS), argues that this policy may not be suitable for immediate implementation. Economic stability, public readiness, and the psychological impact on the pricing of goods and services are critical factors that require careful consideration. Historical evidence suggests that while some countries have successfully implemented redenomination, others have encountered significant challenges, including psychological inflation and market uncertainty. Is Indonesia prepared to adopt this policy in...
