Sankattan Siha Na Islas Mariånas - Ta Hanao Gi Chalan

The Northern Mariana Islands, fully known as the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, are a sub-territory of the Mariana Islands, an unincorporated territory of the United States in the Pacific Ocean, south of Japan and north of Guam.

The area consists of 16 islands stretching over 500 kilometers, of which Saipan, Tinian, and Rota are the largest. The Marianas Trench Marine National Monument was designated there in 2009.

86 percent of the population speaks a language other than English in private, including Micronesian and Polynesian languages. Population growth is 2.8 percent per year. Due to the predominantly female migrant workers in the textile sector, the Northern Mariana Islands used to have the largest female-to-female ratio in the world at 1:0.77, but this is no longer the case following the collapse of the textile industry. The population has declined in recent years, to an estimated 55,000 in 2017.

Taiwan - Women

Taiwan is an island nation in East Asia that is diplomatically recognized by only a few countries due to the One China Policy. Its territory consists of the main island of Taiwan (99%) and other smaller islands. This technologically advanced industrial nation, which produces well over half of all semiconductor components manufactured worldwide, has a population of approximately 23.5 million.

The Republic of China was proclaimed in Nanking on January 1, 1912, following the Xinhai Revolution on the Chinese mainland. The island of Taiwan, under Chinese rule from 1683 to 1895 and from 1895 to 1945 under the rule of the Japanese Empire, only returned to the Republic of China at the end of World War II. In 1949 – following the defeat in the civil war against the Communist Party and the founding of the People's Republic of China on the mainland – the government, elites, and armed forces of the Republic of China withdrew to the island of Taiwan. There, the Kuomintang, led by Chiang Kai-shek, established a one-party rule that lasted for several decades, maintaining a state of emergency. The second half of the 20th century was characterized by high economic growth; towards the end of the 1980s, the Kuomintang initiated a gradual democratization process. In several scales of democracy measurement, the Republic of China (Taiwan) is today, alongside Japan and South Korea, one of the most democratic states in Asia, comparable to Germany and Switzerland.

Even after the proclamation of the People's Republic of China in 1949, the government of the Republic of China initially represented the Chinese state at the United Nations and was a permanent member of the UN Security Council. As a result of the People's Republic's one-China policy, however, more and more states severed diplomatic relations with the Republic of China, which was forced to cede its UN membership to the People's Republic in 1971 with UN Resolution 2758. In 1979, the United States finally severed diplomatic relations after establishing official relations with the People's Republic (Taiwan Relations Act). Today, only a minority of the international community maintains formal diplomatic relations with the government in Taipei. The status of the Republic of China under international law is disputed and is the subject of the Taiwan conflict.

دولة فلسطين (Daulat Filastīn) - على الطريق (Ealaa Altariq)

The State of Palestine (Arabic دولة فلسطين, DMG Daulat Filasṭīn) is a de facto state in the Near East. He claims the areas of the West Bank including Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip. Palestine is recognized as a state by 146 of the 193 member states of the United Nations; The neighboring country Israel, the USA, the German-speaking countries and some other countries in the Western world do not do this, but maintain official relations with it.

In 1988, the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) declared independence, which has since claimed all of the territory occupied by Israel since 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital. From 1994 onwards, several agreements led to Israel's withdrawal and thus to limited independence for Palestine in the autonomous areas. In 2007, due to the Fatah-Hamas conflict, Palestine split into two territories: the West Bank, ruled by Fatah, with around three million inhabitants, and the Gaza Strip, ruled by the radical Islamic Hamas, with around two million inhabitants. Both the West Bank and the Gaza Strip are governed by authoritarian rule. After 2006, no elections were held in either area. Freedom of the press and freedom of expression are severely restricted.

In 2024, the International Court of Justice declared in a legal opinion that Israel was occupying the Gaza Strip, the West Bank and East Jerusalem in violation of international law. Israel must evacuate all Israeli settlers from the occupied territories and compensate for the damage caused by the occupation. The legal opinion is not binding.

Anguilla - We Pon Di Shoreline

Anguilla is an overseas territory of the United Kingdom (British Overseas Territory Anguilla). It is located in the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean. The area forms the main island of the same name, Anguilla, together with several small, uninhabited coral islands. The name was derived from the Italian word anguilla for “eel” and refers to the elongated shape of the main island. Snake Island was also used as an alternative name. The Arawak called the island Malliouhana, the “arrow-shaped sea serpent.”

Anguilla - We Pon Di Shoreline

Here you can listen to the original version: https://soundcloud.com/ipg1/welcome-back-for-more

(Verse1)
Centered and focused, we all have a purpose
Always on the cutting edge, No need to unload us, alert us
Deep in the culture, we’re ultra Tight 
We dance, sing and write, getting ultra hyped 
Any size color or creative, no stereotype 
Bytes don’t hurt, but a keystroke can bury you 
Exchange what you learn, that’s a type stereo
Tight stereo, check another scenario 
That knowledge base that leaves a taste 
What’s a cook up? 
 
(Chorus)  
Welcome back for more, Got a taste for the flavor
well come back for more, and a flavor for the taste
Champions of the underground setting the pace
Welcome back for more, Got a taste for the flavor
well come back for more, and a flavor for the taste
Champions of the underground setting the pace

(Verse2) 
Listen very carefully, as I report the score 
ones and zeros, all built for war 
Computer Bass, ——stereo image tracks, cut and paste
Making music like we do, stand alone or with your crew
The collective few can’t refuse the flavor
Of our music with a slightly different taste 
Easy does it all the way, there’s never a rush 
Never haste, come correct and flavor to taste
A chef never worries about making mistakes

(Chorus)

(Verse3)
Making music dropping rhymes 
we’re in session all the time 
all the ingredients —thrown in the pot
Anytime theres a session you’ve got a cook-up 
that’s how we do it—-legends world renowned 
tight stereo in session, ———
champions of the underground—-
champions of the underground
Adlib

Set Free  by Glenny G ( August 14th 2025 )
A reflective journey exploring a vast length of time that has passed. I thought I would release this one today as food for thought and comments. Cheers from Glenny G

Set Free (Original)

Heaetbeat

On a planet resembling Earth, in a Galaxy far, far away 
There were creatures resembling humans of two pigmentations: one red and one blue 
And the red ones instructed the blue ones that there is one word that THEY must never say. 
And they will be ostracized, subject to violence or otherwise harmed if they do. 

You see, one or two centuries prior, the blue ones held red ones enslaved 
And there was a word that the Blue ones would use to refer to the red ones possessed
And though they had long since been freed, in lieu of the justice they craved 
They insisted the blue ones should never again breathe that word, not even in jest

And the blues ones at first were quite gladly compliant, at first they completely concurred
But the red ones adopted this word as a term of endearment, not a hideous curse!  
And now and again some poor Blue would get loose with its tongue and then out popped that word! 
And red ones who heard it were given free license to beat the blue or something worse! 

Even the most rich and powerful Blue ones if ever that word did they say
Were forced to make public apologies, tearfully beg for forgiveness, repentant 
that’s just the trouble with pendulums swinging too wide can the pendulums sway 
What started as simply a politic gesture was simmering now as resentment 

Words are just noises you make to express an idea you may have at the time
Our primitive ancestors, warning of predators, made noises just to alert you 
Always remember the words that are used in that world famous nursery rhyme:
Sticks and Stones may break your bones but words will never hurt you 

Most Blues were fine with not saying the word, its insulting so why not refrain 
And all of that’s true but it’s rather short sighted and frankly it misses the point  
The point is that blue ones were forced to comply or else suffer the punishment’s pain 
And when rules don’t apply to both red and blue equally, blue noses get out of joint 

So small bands of blues started saying the word in their home and amongst other blues 
And the building resentment would over time lead to a war pitting race against race 
Only slaves are subjected to punishment over expressing unpopular views 
Free people use any words that they want to:  a warning from deep outer space!

The Word You Dare Not Say

Even as a small child I wanted to learn a musical instrument...

...since there was a music school in our small town where I grew up, but it was limited to the activities of the local musicians' band, the choice was rather limited... because piano, guitar or saxophone were not offered and that's why I decided me for the trumpet, which was not used for cast-technical reasons, so the FLÜGELHORN became my instrument...
In my youth I turned my back on music and was active in sports towards the end of my teenage years.
