Liberalism and the Global Economy

Bretton Woods at 80 Years

Oct 29 - nov 1, 2023     bretton woods, new hampshire, usa.

It is our pleasure to welcome you to Bretton Woods, New Hampshire and the historic Mount Washington Resort. As we approach the 80th anniversary of the Bretton Woods Conference we will gather to examine the state of the international economic system that emerged in its wake. In addition to formalizing an international exchange rate system for the post-war world that ultimately displaced the gold standard, this event led to the creation of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank, and set into motion the proceedings that produced the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs in 1947.

Accordingly, the main theme of this meeting is “ Liberalism and the Global Economy: Bretton Woods at 80 Years ”

2023 also marks the 90th anniversary of the American Institute for Economic Research. We expect the rich history of AIER, the Mont Pelerin Society, and the Mount Washington Resort will converge to create an important and exciting conference.

On behalf of the Program Committee and Organizing Committee we look forward to seeing you in Bretton Woods on October 29 – November 1, 2023.

In liberty,

EXPANDING TRADE

Mps tour busia, malaba borders to foster regional cooperation, lawmakers sought to establish opportunities, gains and challenges.

On Thursday, the committee will tour the Lake Victoria Basin Commission and Isebania border on an oversight mission.

• Discussions included use of smart gate and advanced scanning machines to address heavy traffic witnessed at Busia and Malaba 

Members of the National Assembly’s Regional Integration Committee have toured Busia and Malaba borders to foster regional cooperation between East African Community member states.

Led by Fafi MP Farah Salah Yakub, the committee conducted an inspection of the two border points to establish opportunities, gains and challenges faced at the posts.  

The committee engaged with officials from Trade Mark East Africa (TMEA), Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) and the administration of both county and national governments on approaches that will foster trade in the EAC.

“Regional cooperation is paramount for the development of the East African Community,” Yakub said.

The team sought discussed measures that can be embraced to widen the scope of trade.

Discussions included the use of smart gates and advanced scanning machines to address heavy traffic witnessed at Busia and Malaba One Stop Border Points.

The committee was later led by Busia county commissioner Kipchumba Ruto to inspect 70 acres of land where Sh2 billion modern market will be constructed by KRA and TMEA to expand business operations.

The committee also inspected the Malaba trailer park. The committee was informed that Malaba generates Sh5 billion per year.

Present during the tour were Christopher Wangaya Aseka (Khwisero), Beatrice Chepngeno Kemei (Kericho Women Rep), Richard Kipkemoi Yegon (Bomet East) and Rachael Kasiwai (West Pokot Woman Rep).

Moscow Sky Lights Up With Strange Glow After Explosion at Electrical Substation: Reports

N ew footage has emerged showing bright flashes lighting up the night sky in southern Moscow during the early morning hours of November 22.

Knewz.com has learned that there was an explosion at an electrical substation on the outskirts of Russia's capital city followed by an alleged power outage in "several" homes.

Video snippets, shared on Russian news channels like ASTRA , captured a series of flashes that caused the sky to change color. Smoke could also be seen rising from a building.

Corroborating the video, several Russian Telegram accounts reported an explosion near the south of Moscow and a subsequent fire at the Lyublino electrical substation, southeast of central Moscow, per Newsweek .

The local authorities from the area have since confirmed that an explosion occurred in the village of Molokovo, but they reassured the public that all vital facilities were operating as normal.

Russian outlet MSK1.ru reported the blaze at the substation and noted “several” power outages.

The town of Lytkarino, located to the southeast of Moscow, was one of the affected areas, as reported by the independent outlet, Meduza .

Additional power failures were reported in the southern Domodedovo section of the city. However, electricity was later restored to these areas.

One local resident speculated that a drone may have been responsible for the explosion, but additional sources are yet to support this theory.

Newsweek reported that messages on the ASTRA Telegram account run by independent Russian journalists showed residents near the substation panicking. One concerned Russian called it a "nightmare."

The incident follows an attack by Russia on a power station in southwestern Ukraine that left 2,000 people without electricity .

Knewz.com reported previously:

“ Russian forces launched a total of 38 Iranian-made Shahed-136/131 drones during the later hours of November 17 and 18.

The Ukrainian Air Force Command reported that 29 of these drones were shot down [...].

One civilian was injured as a result of the attack that targeted energy infrastructure in the southwestern Odesa Oblast.”

The assault came after repeated warnings by Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky that Russia would try to cripple its power grid as winter approaches.

Ukraine's leader warned that if Russia resorted to attacking its power utilities, it would respond in kind.

Ukraine has conducted numerous long-range aerial drone strikes on Moscow since May 2023.

Most recently on November 20, it was reported that one such incursion was intercepted close to the city, per Kyiv Post .

Moscow’s Mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed this and elaborated that the region's air defense systems intercepted the unmanned craft over the city of Elektrostal to the east of Moscow, as well as another over the Bogorodsky district, northeast of central Moscow.

The details of the recently surfaced video footage have yet to be independently verified.

Queensland premier Steven Miles questioned over bringing two private jets on crime prevention tour

Live Moment Queensland premier Steven Miles questioned over bringing two private jets on crime prevention tour

Queensland's premier has faced questions over his use of government-chartered jets, as he announced plans to bolster police numbers and give Cairns a dedicated chopper.

Premier Steven Miles said he believed the use of two private jets to travel across regional Queensland this week to make crime prevention announcements was appropriate.

Mr Miles, Police Minister Mark Ryan and newly minted Police Commissioner Steve Gollschewski have travelled to several regional cities a day this week, including Cairns, Townsville and Hervey Bay.

To transport the travelling parties — which also included local MPs — two government-chartered jets were used on multiple days to travel between Brisbane and north Queensland.

Steven Miles said the planes were needed for the busy schedule.

"It was determined that was the most appropriate way to deliver the itinerary," he said.

"It just would not be possible for me to have done that without access to those QG Air planes."

Mr Miles said he used commercial flights for travel when possible.

"That itinerary was based on my desire to make sure that I, the police commissioner, and police minster are in regional Queensland as much as we can possibly be," he said.

Live Moment

Look back at how ABC readers and other Australians responded to this live moment.

How can a Polair helicopter assist police?

• Police say Polair capabilities can enhance police operations in regional areas
• Polair helicopters have advanced camera, thermal imaging and night vision capabilities
• The helicopters are used daily to help police with tracking offenders, surveillance operations and search and rescue missions

That is where we will leave our live coverage. Thank you for joining us.

If crime rates are going down in Cairns why is a police helicopter needed?

Police Minister Mark Ryan says in the financial year to date, which is about nine months, the number of offences against properties in Cairns is down 12 per cent   and the unlawful use of a motor vehicle is down 20 per cent.

He says the new helicopter will be there to complement the work that police do.

"Polair is not just about apprehending offenders, it is about saving lives. "The very first call for service the Townsville helicopter was called to was a little boy lost in the bush. "Police tell me that they may not have found that boy if it was not for the helicopter. "That is why you need Polair."

MP says a police helicopter is a 'game changer' for Cairns

"If you are a crook out there you will now be observed from a very high altitude, you won't even know that the machine is even up there, but it will see you," Barron River MP Craig Crawford says. "It can lock on to the vehicle that you have stolen, it can see your heat signature when you are running through the park in the middle of the night. "You will be caught, you will be found, you will be charged and you will go in front of a magistrate."

Wondering what this is? Join us next time we're live and be part of the discussion.

On Monday, Mr Miles travelled from Brisbane to Cairns to hold a press conference alongside Mr Gollschewski after he was announced as the new police commissioner.

Mr Miles spoke in Cairns again on Tuesday, before he travelled to Townsville then Hervey Bay to make announcements about tackling youth crime with Mr Ryan and Mr Gollschewski.

The trio went from Brisbane to Cairns and Townsville again on Wednesday to spruik a new police helicopter and funding for more police officers.

Deputy Opposition Leader Jarrod Bleijie said the premier was   "wasting valuable resources with two luxury jets flying to the same location".

"The same five locations with his police minister," he said.

"They couldn't fly in the same plane together?"

Official guidelines state government jets should only be used when commercial flights are unavailable or inadequate.

'Aggressive recruitment campaign'

The dedicated police helicopter will be used to combat crime, as the state government announces plans to bolster the force with 900 new officers.

The ambitious recruitment target comes ahead of the looming state election and two days after Steve Gollschewski was appointed as police commissioner.

The commitment includes a boost of 500 sworn officers and 400 unsworn personnel over the next three years.

Despite a competitive labour market, the state government said an "aggressive recruiting campaign" had led to a 200 per cent jump in the number of recruits in the pipeline over the last year.

Nearly 700 aspiring officers are undergoing training and more than 2,000 applicants are in the recruitment process.

"The extra personnel will be allocated to areas across Queensland, ensuring we are future-proofing our police and keeping pace with population growth," Commissioner Gollschewski said.

"Despite the recruiting challenges being experienced in policing jurisdictions across Australia, the QPS is continuing to see a healthy pipeline of police recruit applicants."

New police chopper

With crime shaping up as a key issue in this year's state election, the Queensland government has also committed to purchasing a police helicopter for Cairns.

The aerial asset will include sophisticated thermal imaging cameras and night vision capabilities.

Townsville received a police chopper in January, which is flown daily to track offenders and stolen cars, conduct surveillance operations and search for missing people.

So far, it has taken 110 flights and located 74 persons of interest and 41 stolen vehicles. 

"We heard yesterday from the police in Townsville that the helicopter there can allow them to do some tasks that might have once taken weeks in just minutes," Premier Steven Miles said. 

Commissioner Gollschewski said he was "delighted" that Cairns would be getting its own chopper. 

"We've seen how extraordinarily successful these assets are both in south-east Queensland and in Townsville," he said.

"They are a game changer for our police here and they will be a game changer for the community."

The announcements are the latest in a suite of new government initiatives to combat crime.
