Don't eat too much. Don't drink too much.
And don't talk politics.
My family Xmas bun-fight kicks off this arvo so must remember to heed my own advice.
SPC 2
Given it's the year that China asserted full control of Hong Kong (23 years into a 50 year agreement), a little focus on the Baluchistan area of Pakistan.
It's become an economic zone (it has natural respurces for export), one handed off to China for exploitation. Now a port is Chinese controlled and is being fenced off from the wider region. A bit like Hong Kong in its 1897-1997 phase.
Formerly the Pakistan government "kidnapped" local nationalists. Now in Sweden and a few days ago in Canada Baluchi nationalists in exile have drowned.
