Indonesia for tougher anti-terror law
Indonesia has passed a new law that will give police more power to take pre-emptive action against terror suspects.
The law was approved by the country’s parliament today, days after suicide bombings claimed by Islamic State killed more than 30 people in the city of Surabaya.
Under the revised law, anyone suspected of planning an attack can be held for up to 21 days for an initial examination, instead of a week, and for up to 200 days for a formal investigation.
Those convicted of smuggling explosives or other chemicals and weapons into or out of the country for terrorism will face a maximum penalty of death.
Apex Courts Micro-Managing Without Expertise, Blundering

Uncertainty of Projects due to Judicial Interventions, Corruption and Scams are primary reasons for poverty, poor development and polluted environment. Even after 13 years Supreme Court is FUMBLING – Clearly Haryana Government wanted to acquire Large Farm Land at Prime Location On Behalf Of Builders for Commercial Purpose.
‘Residential-Cum Commercial Project could be Worth Rs.50 Cr/Acre But State Government Wanted to Buy Farmland for Just Rs.0.12 Cr/Acre Only’.
I am familiar with the Haryana Government Loot Program in 2005when State wanted to acquire Farm Land on behalf of Builders Like ’10,000 Acres for Reliance*’ and actually sold to Reliance prime land stretching across districts for as low as Rs.2 Lakh/acre when cost of Developed Land in DLF-I was about Rs.2 lakh/Sq.Mt. [Acre = 4000 Sq.Mt.]
*RIL was acquiring 25,000 Acres of Land at just three places, two in Maharashtra & one Haryana for Industrial Townships – even Rs.50 Cr Per Acre was Rs.12,50,000 Cr Projects to be Funded By India – MORE THAN ALL THE CREDIT ADVANCED BY ALL SCHEDULED COMMERCIAL BANKS IN 2005 WHICH WERE Rs,11,52,400 Cr.
Shareholder’s Equity of RIL including Anil Ambani was Rs.1,393 Cr and Dividend Distributed was Rs.1,045 Cr – Just one project was much more than 1000 Times the Equity – 2500 Times Mukesh Ambani Groups promoters holding.
Since 1997-98 India had stable Governments – though RIL Revenue has gone up 45 Times but Dividend growth is barely 3 Times to around Rs.3200 Cr. Why do our Banks fund Company operating at low EARNINGS for Shareholders – 1% or less of turnover?
Apex Court is Familiar with SCAM OF BIG BUILDERS who have taken advances of Rs. Thousands of Crores and Diverted Money to other Projects or Simply Personal Accounts.
Farm Land Acquired for Rs.Lakhs Per Acre, Housing Project Retail Cost is Rs.40 Crores to Rs.150 Crores for Economy Flats to Super Luxury Flats.
In 1974, I worked in Bharat Steel Tube – it was built on 50 Acres of Land, Zenith Steel Tube was built on about 20 Acres but similar Jain Steel Tube Plant in Ghaziabad Industrial was built on just 2 Acres. PSU Steel plants acquired 10 times more Farmland or Forest Land than required.
Obviously SC was expected to Direct States & Banks to FUND MANAGEABLE & REALISTIC PROJECTS – Maximum 5 Acres At A Time than 229 Acres that requires Rs.10,000 Cr Investment in Hissar, a small town.

Hungary tough on “Stop Soros”
Hungary’s government will submit a tougher version of the “Stop Soros” bill to parliament next week, adding criminal penalties for groups accused of financing illegal immigration, according to Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s chief of staff. “The bill has been tightened… to state that the organization and financing of illegal migration should be punished,” Gergely Gulyas said on Thursday after a government meeting. The legislation will empower the interior minister to ban non-government organizations that support migration and are seen as a national security risk, Reuters said.
France invites for to be hub of tech
French President Emmanuel Macron has called on tech leaders to invest in France, saying his innovation policies aim to make the country the gateway to Europe. Speaking in Paris on Thursday, partly in English, in front of leaders of the tech industry, Macron said: “It’s because France is changing like crazy that we can say that France is back and you could choose France,” AP reports. He said his labor changes have boosted investment in the country over the past year. However, the changes, aimed at giving employers more flexibility to hire and fire, have prompted a series of strikes and street protests against what unions see as weakening workers’ rights.
Trump cancel Kim meets,NK willing to talk
Trump on Thursday cancelled his proposed summit meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on June 12 in Singapore and blamed Pyongyang’s “tremendous anger” and “open hostility” for his decision.
Trump’s announcement came hours after North Korea carried out what it said is the demolition of its nuclear test site on Thursday.
“I was very much looking forward to being there with you. Sadly, based on the tremendous anger and open hostility displayed in your most recent statement, I feel it is inappropriate, at this time, to have this long-planned meeting,” Trump wrote in a letter to Kim which was released to the press.
North Korea has said that it is still willing to talk to the United States after President Donald Trump cancelled a summit between the two countries.
North Korea’s First Vice Foreign Minister Kim Kye Gwan said that the abrupt announcement of the cancellation of the meeting is unexpected and North Korea finds it extremely regrettable.
He said, North Korea is willing to sit face-to-face any time in any form to resolve the problem.
Earlier, the US President had cancelled his proposed summit meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on 12th June in Singapore.
Mr Trump blamed Pyongyang’s tremendous anger and open hostility for his decision.
The announcement came hours after North Korea carried out what it said is the demolition of its nuclear test site Thursday.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres today said he was deeply concerned as US President Donald Trump cancelled a widely anticipated nuclear summit next month with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
UN Secretary-General said this after he presented a new UN disarmament agenda in Geneva today. Mr. Guterres said that he urged the parties to continue their dialogue to find a path to a peaceful and verifiable denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula.
His comments came shortly after US president informed Kim Jong Un that he was cancelling the nuclear summit scheduled on June 12 in Singapore. The decision came as North Korea said it had completely dismantled its nuclear test site.
