I've never read fiction more quickly than I have with reading these three pieces. It is so easy to consume self-hatred.
Camberwell Market find- bought from a person who pursues deceased estate sales as a full-time career.
This is the first letter I found in a tub full of papers- and it just so happens to be an envelope branded with my great grandfathers place of work before and after the Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies. British-American Tobacco Company in Java.
Imperialism and colonialism didn't use to hide itself. The same cannot be said of the multi-national enterprises today.
As clean-up efforts continue and an interim government finds its feet, families have said farewell to loved ones killed in last week's viole
The ABC have listed the extent of damages done by the Gen Z led protests during their revolutionary struggle against corrupt officials.
“Protesters targeted symbols of the ruling elite or the wealthy. They torched the homes of politicians, car showrooms, and private offices.”
The interesting piece (related to my PhD) from this article is the cost of damages done to the newly built Hilton hotel.
“Losses were estimated at 25 billion Nepali rupees ($266 million), with more than 2,000 workers affected. Damage to the Hilton alone was put as high as $83 million”
The article then goes on to say-
“The Hotel Association of Nepal reported more than 20 hotels damaged, including the Hilton fire. Others were looted.
Tourism is a key employer, the country's fourth largest, providing jobs to more than 371,000 people, according to government figures, with more than a million visitors every year”
The similarities to other developing economies with a large tourist destination image such as Bali, Indonesia- where also too “Tourism is the lifeblood of (Nepal's) economy” -are uncanny.

Maybe more to explore here. But a key focus of mine is how these multi-national corporations hemorrhage an insane amount of money out of tourists destinations; expecting the populations of Nepal and Indonesia a-likes pay off to be that the neoliberal system will reward these destinations in the form of jobs and infrastructure development.
