  Trump company's accounting firm says 10 years of financial statements are unreliable

Trump Organization's accounting firm says 10 years of financial statements are unreliable

[Image: 200928113202-02-trump-briefing-taxes-092...us-169.jpg]

New York (CNN)Former President Donald Trump's long-time accounting firm informed the Trump Organization last week that it should no longer rely on nearly 10 years' worth of financial statements and that they would no longer be their accountants, citing a conflict of interest.

"We have come to this conclusion based, in part, upon the filings made by the New York Attorney General on January 18, 2022, our own investigation, and information received from internal and external sources," Mazars wrote in a letter to the Trump Organization chief legal officer, advising them to no longer rely on financial statements ending June 2011 through June 2020.

"While we have not concluded that the various financial statements, as a whole, contain material discrepancies, based upon the totality of the circumstances, we believe our advice to you to no longer rely upon those financial statements is appropriate."

The company also advised the Trump Organization to inform any recipients of the statements, such as lenders or insurers, to not rely on the statements.

  Muda’s maiden election candidate Amira says spurred into politics by ‘Sheraton Move’
Posted by: superadmin - 02-15-2022, 03:05 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 15 — Malaysian United Democratic Alliance (Muda) secretary-general Amira Aisya Abd Aziz has said that her decision to participate in politics was influenced by the 'Sheraton Move' which saw the collapse of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government in 2020.

Posting on Twitter after being nominated as Muda’s first election candidate to contest the Johor state election, Amira said she could not bear any longer to watch her friends fight on her behalf in the political arena.

“Growing up in a family with no political background, I never thought today would happen. The Sheraton Move for me is a point of collapse of democracy in Malaysia,” she said in a Twitter thread.

  The outlook for bitcoin as geopolitical tensions heat up and interest rates rise

Here’s the outlook for bitcoin as geopolitical tensions heat up and interest rates rise

[Image: 107005904-1643117857182-gettyimages-1237...=740&h=416]

The bitcoin narrative could be tested this week as investors monitor tense developments between Ukraine and Russia and weigh the possibility of the Federal Reserve hiking interest rates by 50 basis points, or 0.5 percentage points, in March.

The largest cryptocurrency by market capital currency has long been regarded by early investors and enthusiasts as a safe haven asset — one that ideally could offset risk in investors’ portfolios and limit exposure to negative shocks.

However, in recent months bitcoin has has been trading like equities, specifically like riskier growth-oriented stocks. It’s still recovering from a big drop from earlier in the year, when rising rates led investors to shed positions in tech and other risky assets.

  Indonesian teacher gets life in jail for raping 13 students
Posted by: superadmin - 02-15-2022, 02:43 PM - Forum: International News - No Replies

BANDUNG: An Indonesian court today sentenced a teacher to life in prison for the rape of 13 students, in a case that has drawn national attention to sexual abuse in the country’s religious boarding schools.

Bandung district court in West Java found Herry Wirawan guilty of raping 13 female students, all minors, and impregnating at least eight of them.

During the trial, it was revealed he had raped the children – many from poor families attending the school on scholarships – over five years.


The pattern of abuse came to light when the family of a female student reported Wirawan to the police for raping and impregnating their teenage daughter last year.

  They met on Valentine's Day while hiking in the Himalayas
Posted by: superadmin - 02-15-2022, 02:28 PM - Forum: General Discussion - No Replies

(CNN) — It was Valentine's Day 1996 when Lee Green walked into a mountain lodge in Nepal, surrounded by the snowcapped Himalayas, and encountered Mandy Halse for the first time.

Green and Halse were thousands of miles from their respective homes in England and New Zealand. Both were backpackers in their twenties determined to see as much of the world as they could. They'd found themselves in Nepal by a series of coincidences.

When Green entered the Nepalese teahouse, the stage was set for a memorable meet-cute.

Except on February 14, there were no sparks between the two travelers.

Two weeks later it was a different story, one that's still ongoing 26 years later.

  The day Karpal chased Anwar’s brother out of his office
Posted by: superadmin - 02-15-2022, 09:50 AM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

PETALING JAYA: Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim tonight paid tribute to the late Karpal Singh for refusing to take a single sen despite having represented him in court for many years.

Anwar recalled the time Karpal visited him in prison and reprimanded him after Anwar’s family and friends had collected up to RM400,000 to pay his legal fees – a sum of which Anwar not only knew nothing about, but one that paled in comparison to the years of work Karpal had put in as well as other expenses he had borne.

  Kisona can show she means business during BATC 2022
Posted by: superadmin - 02-14-2022, 05:58 PM - Forum: Badminton - No Replies

[Image: 20211004-kisona-bernama-2.jpg]

KUALA LUMPUR – The Badminton Asia Team Championships (BATC) 2022 will be a platform for S. Kisona to prove that she is back at her best as the country’s top women’s singles shuttler.

After facing numerous challenges in 2021, including inconsistent performance and catching Covid-19 twice, the 23-year-old will be going all out to make amends at BATC, which will be held at the Setia City Convention Centre near here from tomorrow till Sunday.

Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) singles coaching director Wong Choong Hann said Kisona, the 2019 SEA Games champion, has been showing good progress lately to regain her previous form.

“We did look into the areas to improve her physical condition, and she is quite good lately. She has been recuperating and also in terms of on-court training performance is very stable.

“So, just how much that means to transform into winning points, we need to test it out in BATC. It is a good platform even though we have second teams from Japan and India. But they are still strong opponents, so we want that opportunity (to test our players),” he told reporters during team training today.

Apart from world number 64 Kisona, the other singles shuttlers in the squad are Eoon Qi Xuan (126), Siti Nurshuhaini Azman (309), Myisha Mohd Khairul (369) and Tan Zhing Yi (1,484).

Drawn in Group Y, the ladies will start their campaign against India tomorrow, before facing Japan on Wednesday. The top two teams in each group will advance to the semi-finals and earn tickets to the Uber Cup finals in Bangkok, Thailand.

In the absence of former world champion PV Sindhu (7) and former world number one Saina Nehwal (25), India will depend on youngsters Aakarshi Kashyap (56), Malvika Bansod (61) and Ashmita Chaliha (62), while Japan, who are resting their top six players, will be represented by the likes of Natsuki Nidaira (72) and Riko Gunji (181).
Choong Hann said the women shuttlers are working hard to improve their performance, and he hopes they can spring a surprise, after having advanced to the semi-finals during the previous edition in Manila.

Meanwhile, the country’s top-ranked women’s doubles player Pearly Tan, 21, warned her teammates not to take the challenge lightly although Japan and India are not sending their best teams.

“Our target is to qualify for the Uber Cup, but we can’t underestimate the opponents. We have to support each other, give courage and help each other to be highly motivated.

“As the first doubles, M. Thinaah and I will be focused on our own game plan regardless of our opponents. Every match is important; we hope to deliver points for the team,” said the world number 15. – Bernama, February 14, 2022

  After spat with PKR, Syed Saddiq calls for united front against BN in Johor
Posted by: superadmin - 02-14-2022, 05:54 PM - Forum: Politics - No Replies

[Image: 20220214-Anwar_Ibrahim_Syed_Saddiq_PKR_M...ok_pic.jpg]

JOHOR BARU – Muda president Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman adopted a conciliatory tone at a Pakatan Harapan event today, calling for a united front to fight “the arrogance of Barisan Nasional (BN)” in Johor.

On the tussle between PKR and Muda, he said it must have been peculiar as many felt that his party was on a mission to “fight with friends” in the opposition.

“Let me remind you that Muda is built to overhaul Malaysia’s politics. In doing so, it must be clear who we are fighting, and who are our friends,” he said during the launch of PH’s election machinery in Pulai here.

The Muar MP added that the vision for the electoral battle is clear, and that all component parties must fight the arrogance of BN.

He warned that any loss in focus will allow BN’s politics to continue, which will see more state polls to come.
