Detailing EU Complicity In Rohingya Crisis – Parliament Publishes Burma Campaign UK Evidence https://t.co/2Xo9DCUSnL #ASEM
— Burma Campaign UK (@burmacampaignuk) 20. November 2017
As EU Foreign Ministers meet Asian counterparts at the ASEM meeting in Burma’s capital, Naypyidaw, the Foreign Affairs Committee of the British Parliament has published evidence submitted by Burma Campaign UK which details EU complicity in the current Rohingya Crisis.
Since the new crisis began almost three months ago, the EU has not taken any practical action to try to prevent further atrocities. EU ministers have twice met and discussed the crisis and decided not to act. The only step taken is to suspend invitations to senior military officers to visit the EU.
Burma Campaign UK, along with Rohingya organisations and other human rights organisations, is calling on the EU to implement the following measures:
- Officially support the establishment of a UN mandated global arms embargo (The EU currently has its own arms embargo).
- Implement a visa ban on members of the Burmese military entering the EU.
- Ban the supply of any equipment to the military, not just arms.
- End all military training and co-operation programmes.
- Ban investment and business dealings with military owned companies.
- Support a referral of the situation in Burma to the International Criminal Court.
- Explore options for the application of universal jurisdiction relating to violations of international law in Burma.
- Review co-operation and support with the government of Burma in light of its denial of human rights violations and continuation of policies of repression against the Rohingya.
Appalling how the #EU High Rep @FedericaMog completely fails to acknowledge that #Rohingya are fleeing the #Myanmar army’s campaign of crimes against humanity (killings, rape, arson, persecution) – what the #UN Rights Chief refers to as a „textbook example of ethnic cleansing“ https://t.co/iApm8uERKy

Unsere Forderungen an die neue Bundesregierung. Integration gelingt, wenn…
- Wir die richtige Willkommenskultur leben. Das heißt: Wir begegnen Zugezogenen mit einer offenen & selbstbewussten Haltung, die auf Menschenrechten basiert.
- Mehr Geld zur Verfügung gestellt wird. Für Deutschkurse, Aus- und Bildungsangebote und zwar schon während des Asylverfahrens, um die Zeit vom ersten Tag an sinnvoll zu nutzen. Dazu müssen auch Strukturen von ehrenamtlich Engagierten finanziert werden.
- Gute Rahmenbedingungen für den Arbeitsmarkzugang geschaffen werden. Es braucht bessere Qualifizierungsmöglichkeiten für alle und eine Arbeitsmarkt-Öffnung nach 3 Monaten.
- Individuelle Voraussetzungen gezielt gestärkt werden. Familiennachzug muss für alle, also für Asylberechtigte UND Subsidärschutzberechtigte, möglich sein. Die psychosoziale Unterstützung und psychotherapeutische Versorgung müssen verbessert werden.
- Frauen gestärkt werden. Es braucht gezielte Maßnahmen zur nachholenden Qualifizierung für Frauen, um der „mitgebrachten“ Bildungsbenachteiligung entgegenzuwirken
- Asylverfahren verbessert werden. Dauer und Qualität der Asylverfahren sind nicht hinzunehmen. Rechtsinformation und Rechtsberatung sind ebenso wenig ausreichend gewährleistet wie die Qualität der Dolmetschleistungen.
- Armutsgefährdung von Zugezogenen bekämpft wird. Es braucht österreichweite Standards für die Mindestsicherung. Während des Bezugs von Mindestsicherung muss der Zugang zu Bildung und Ausbildung gesichert sein.

News Lens: Searching for Development 4.0 https://t.co/DnmmqEF9M2
— Bretton Woods Proj. (@brettonwoodspr) 2. November 2017
Those deeply involved in the tech revolution are already mapping out Industry4.0 or the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The Davos World Economic Forum associated Industry1.0 to the steam age, the second to the electrical age, the third to the Digital Revolution and the Fourth to new Internet of Industry. Today, technological breakthroughs in robotics, nano-technology, biotechnology and artificial intelligence create new goods and services, requiring new forms of governance.
In the light of profound changes in technology, climate change and our understanding of inequality and global imbalances, the time has come to take stock and help emerging markets understand what options there are for development in the New Economy.
In short, Development4.0 is not about more money, but how to live happily, peacefully and prosperously in harmony with each other, nature and continually to evolve with technology and each other. Development4.0 is not going to be a one-size-fit-all model, but diverse ways to think about the future of man. Mapping these pathways would be an achievement in itself.

Private banks might be used to keep information confidential to protect their clients. But EBRD loans are public money and banking secrecy rules have to be modified in order to acknowledge the fact that the public has a right to monitor these financial flows.
Already before the last board meeting in October, the EBRD received 27 percent of all GCF finances. With the last large project the share will be even higher. Add to that other international financial institutions and what is left for direct beneficiaries is becoming less and less.
The report also states that it takes approximately 29.8 days for both men and women to start a business in India, compared to 28.5 days last year. India stood at 156th for “starting a business.”

The IFC provided a $450-million loan for the construction of the Tata Mundra plant in India. Following the IFC’s failure to take necessary reasonable steps to prevent harm in the affected community as is required in terms of its own policy (the Policy on Social and Environmental Sustainability and the Performance Standards) the plant project destroyed the local marine environment, fish populations and sources of water used for drinking and irrigation.
When the affected Indian community tried to sue the IFC in the United States, where the head office of IFC is based, the court declared that the IFC had immunity and therefore could not be sued.

Freie Berufe – und da vor allem Ärzte – sind keine Dienstleister!
The Cut, Cut, Cut Act:
✅ Tax cuts for billionaires
✅ Tax cuts for corporations
✅ Forces cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security https://t.co/3sQiL8b5Qy— Bernie Sanders (@SenSanders) 2. November 2017
Ärzte haben sich der Genfer Konvention des Weltärztebundes – landläufig Hippokrates Eid – verpflichtet und eine lange Ausbildung hinter sich, die von der Ärztekammer geprüft wird. Niemand darf und soll sich einmischen.
Seit Jahren versuchen unterschiedliche Kräfte, die Selbstbestimmung und Selbstverfassung der Ärzte aufzuweichen, mit durchaus fragwürdigen Absichten.
Eine freie, demokratische Gesellschaft braucht unabhängige Organe, die dafür sorgen, dass Willkür und Zwangsverordnungen nicht Platz greifen können. Was die Zerstörung dieses Status nach sich ziehen kann, wissen wir alle aus schrecklicher Erfahrung: nie mehr Euthanasie.
Und noch etwas: Nahezu ausnahmslos alle Ärzte werden deshalb Ärzte, weil sie Menschen helfen wollen und Krankheiten bekämpfen. Das gilt für praktizierende Ärzte ebenso wie für forschende.
Ein Regelwerk, welches nach dem letzten Weltkrieg gegründet wurde, ist der Pensionsfonds, hilft bei Arbeitsunfähigkeit, zahlt Pensionen, unterstützt Hinterbliebene (Witwen, Witwer, Waisen).
Wieso bedarf es hier eines Zwanges? Wieso können Kollegen nicht freiwillig mitmachen und zahlen, wenn sie die Leistungen schätzen bzw. austreten, wenn ihnen die Kammer nichts bringt. Ist eine gute und berechtigte Frage.
