———

I visited the Vaccine Storage Center at Permai Hospital, Johor Bahru today (Wednesday, 14 July 2021) to inspect the distribution of Covid-19 vaccines to vaccination centers (PPV) in Johor. During the visit, I also had a meeting with Health and Environment EXCO YB Vidyananthan A/L Ramanadhan, Tourism, Youth and Sports EXCO YB Dato' Onn Hafiz bin Ghazi and Johor Deputy State Secretary YB Dato' Haji Mohd Noh bin Ibrahim.

I have decreed that the vaccination programmes throughout Johor be accelerated to achieve herd immunity as soon as possible. At the same time, I advised that the logistical process of vaccine distribution to the PPVs be expedited and that the supply of vaccines at PPVs must be sufficient as well as the need to have an adequate number of PPVs to cover the entire state of Johor.

I also witnessed the receiving of the Pfizer vaccine supply that would be distributed to PPVs in the near future. I am pleased to inform that 83% of Bangsa Johor have successfully registered to receive the vaccine. To those who haven’t, I would like to urge you to sign up as soon as possible. Again, I would like to stress that if herd immunity can be achieved, then Johor’s economic recovery can begin.

I would like to thank the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation,
and the Ministry of Health Malaysia for their cooperation to expedite the vaccination programme in all districts in Johor.

Finally, I would like to thank all frontliners for their service and sacrifice in saving the lives of the rakyat. May Allah always protect and bless the frontliners. Allah Peliharakan Sultan.

HRH Major General Tunku Ismail Ibni Sultan Ibrahim, Crown Prince of Johor

整理得很好

【**川普做了哪些40年來其他總統沒做的事?**】中共就是這幾任包括柯林頓，小布希，歐巴馬給搞到為所欲為，不管川普是否連任，這4年能夠把中共搞到崩潰邊緣，他真的不簡單!

**這裡整理幾點，他做了那些前任總統沒做的事?**

**1. 讓反共成為美國共識:**
* 正式公開承認過去幾十年對中政策的錯誤，並將中國與中共分開，認定中共所領導的中國為「有別於民主」的獨裁國家，視其為「新威權主義」

**2. 讓反共成為民主自由國家共識:**
* 呼籲並整合西方國家，在民主自由與極權暴政之間只能選邊站，價值觀勝過經濟誘因
* 在這次疫情，願意第一個出來講真話，讓我們不用活在指鹿為馬的世界，指出就是因為中共隱匿疫情，造成全球染疫超過千萬，死亡超過50萬人，經濟停擺，損失無可計算，四億多全職工作消失不復返，生活模式改變
* 甚至，他點出了 [#宗教自由](https://www.facebook.com/…/%E5%AE%97%E6%95%99%E8%87%AA%E7%9…)，喚醒我們與中共的差別，西方民主國家不要忘記我們的價值觀，行善止惡的重要性

**3. 斷絕中共資金來源:**

**6. 印太戰略**

2. Making Anti-CCP a consensus in the democratic and free nations:
* Appealed the democratic and free nations to stand together against CCP. Western countries is forced by CCP to choose side between persistence in freedom and acceptance of Beijing’s bully tactics, between value and economic incentives.

* Arrested the scholars and scientists involved in the Thousand Talents Program, and publicly condemned the Chinese Embassy accused to lead this program in the US
* Ordered a ban on issuing visas to the Chinese people, students and researchers with PLA background, in order to prevent Xi Jinping's "military-civilian integration strategy" from stealing US high technology

* According to CNN, because of using huawei equipments, the Philippines' power grid is under the full control of the Chinese government and could be shut off in time of conflict
* Denied Google to use a direct connection between the US and Hong Kong, due to a significant risk to security

6. Indo-Pacific Strategy

【#迷上英式英文】英國首相Bojo復出後首次演說：I ask you to contain your impatience

演說全文：

Good morning.

I am sorry I have been away from my desk for much longer than I would have liked, and I want to thank everybody who has stepped up, in particular the First Secretary of State Dominic Raab, who has done a terrific job.

But once again I want to thank you, the people of this country for the sheer grit and guts you have shown and are continuing to show. Every day I know that this virus brings new sadness and mourning to households across the land, and it is still true that this is the biggest single challenge this country has faced since the war.

And I in no way minimise the continuing problems we face, and yet it is also true that we are making progress, with fewer hospital admissions, fewer covid patients in ICU, and real signs now that we are passing through the peak.

And thanks to your forbearance, your good sense, your altruism, your spirit of community, thanks to our collective national resolve, we are on the brink of achieving that first clear mission to prevent our national health service from being overwhelmed in a way that tragically we have seen elsewhere. And that is how and why we are now beginning to turn the tide.

If this virus were a physical assailant, an unexpected and invisible mugger, which I can tell you from personal experience it is, then this is the moment when we have begun together to wrestle it to the floor.

And so it follows that this is the moment of opportunity. This is the moment when we can press home our advantage. It is also the moment of maximum risk because I know that there will be many people looking now at our apparent success and beginning to wonder whether now is the time to go easy on those social distancing measures.

And I know how hard and how stressful it has been to give up, even temporarily, those ancient and basic freedoms - not seeing friends, not seeing loved ones, working from home, managing the kids, worrying about your job and your firm.

So let me say directly also to British business, to the shopkeepers, to the entrepreneurs, to the hospitality sector, to everyone on whom our economy depends-

I understand your impatience.

I share your anxiety.

And I know that without our private sector, without the drive and commitment of the wealth creators of this country, there will be no economy to speak of. There will be no cash to pay for our public services, no way of funding our NHS, and yes I can see the long term consequences of lock down as clearly as anyone, and so yes I entirely share your urgency.

It’s the government’s urgency.

And yet we must also recognise the risk of a second spike, the risk of losing control of that virus, and letting the reproduction rate go back over one, because that would mean not only a new wave of death and disease but also an economic disaster, and we would be forced once again to slam on the brakes across the whole country, and the whole economy, and reimpose restrictions in such a way as to do more and lasting damage.

And so I know it is tough, and I want to get this economy moving as fast as I can, but I refuse to throw away all the effort and the sacrifice of the British people, and to risk a second major outbreak and huge loss of life and the overwhelming of the NHS.

And I ask you to contain your impatience because I believe we are coming now to the end of the first phase of this conflict.

And in spite of all the suffering we have so nearly succeeded, we defied so many predictions, we did not run out of ventilators or ICU beds, we did not allow our NHS to collapse, and on the contrary we have so far collectively shielded our NHS so that our incredible doctors and nurses and healthcare staff have been able to shield all of us from an outbreak that would have been far worse.

And we collectively flattened the peak, and so when we are sure that this first phase is over, and that we are meeting our five tests, deaths falling, NHS protected, rate of infection down, really sorting out the challenges of testing and PPE, avoiding a second peak, then that will be the time to move on to the second phase, in which we continue to suppress the disease, and keep the reproduction rate, the r rate, down, but begin gradually to refine the economic and social restrictions, and one by one to fire up the engines of this vast UK economy, and in that process difficult judgments will be made.

And we simply cannot spell out now how fast or slow or even when those changes will be made, though clearly the government will be saying much more about this in the coming days.

And I want to serve notice now that these decisions will be taken with the maximum possible transparency.

And I want to share all our working and our thinking, my thinking, with you the British people, and of course, we will be relying as ever on the science to inform us, as we have from the beginning.

But we will also be reaching out to build the biggest possible consensus, across business, across industry, across all parts of our United Kingdom, across party lines, bringing in opposition parties as far as we possibly can, because I think that is no less than what the British people would expect.

And I can tell you now that preparations are under way, and have been for weeks to allow us to win phase two of this fight as I believe we are now on track to prevail in phase one.

And so I say to you finally if you can keep going in the way that you have kept going so far, if you can help protect our NHS, to save lives, and if we as a country can show the same spirit of optimism and energy shown by Captain Tom Moore, who turns 100 this week, if we can show the same spirit of unity and determination as we have all shown in the past six weeks, then I have absolutely no doubt that we will beat it together.

We will come through this all the faster.

And the United Kingdom will emerge stronger than ever before.

Thank you very much.
