    Today, it was proven, that the ‘hoax’ of Plastic Rice, is no hoax.

    The video making the rounds and appearing on You Tube is not a joke.   Whether the factory is in Vietnam, China or down the road, doesn’t […]

    • I put in the ‘tests’ so just in case you want to be sure…

      The Chinese have been dumping garbage here for years. About 3 years ago I had bought a pair of jeans. I was wearing them the 2nd time… just walking. Not fast. And the crotch tore.

      I am not surprised about plastic rice

    • It is a very important which has been existing but not much awareness has been created about the subject all over the world. We always think it happens in other cities or countries and not in my neighbourhood and we may end up consuming something like this which is very harmful. As the world says no to plastics this is a new problem which has been cropping on and off in different countries. Nowadays everything is polluted and all companies has come with genetically modified food and more dangerous varieties of products on our dinner table. Polished rice is one more dangerous product doing the rounds. The rice millers try to do the polishing in such a way that they mix some chemicals and give a coating to give the rice a white and glossy look as it looks attractive and people will pay a higher price. The concerned departments of respective governments of each country have to check this and take stringent action against the culprits. A very useful article.

      • The Chinese have been doing this all over the world. In Nigeria it is a major problem. Now it is in Jamaica and may be in your country.

        One has to be so careful, even when they buy ‘fresh’ vegetables. I always pick the ones that look a little handicapped because they are not G.M.

    • There are many countries now victims of fake rice and it originates from China.I do not know why Chinese want to scam the world.They are not afraid , why? they do not have God in their lives. There is no one to fear about wrong doings on earth. Even in their own country, they are not afraid for their country also processed illegal drugs. This is not only my own assumption and not really an assumption for these two happened in Philippines fake rice / plastic rice entered Davao city, but they never prospered especially this time under the new President they will surely land 6 feet below the ground should they not stop exporting fake rice to Philippines There are also many Chinese drug pushers jailed in Philippines ,thousands of them. They were caught manufacturing shabu.

    • That is one of the disadvantages of science. Genius people use their knowledge to cheat other people. All their consciences are totally gone.

      They don’t care about the effect of what they are doing. What matters is their needs of wealth.

    • It is a very big problem on internet to identify the legit sites who have to pay the people from whom they make promises and take services before ditching and vanishing into thin air without paying any money to the people concerned. As the web happens to be run by the respective companies whose services are being used to host the scam sites these people who own the web engines and help these scam sites to sprout up should take care that their infrastructure is not being misused as even their name gets spoilt and so does their goodwill. Scams occur in different ways on the internet not only with writing sites and writers but with many other products services and places where information is being provided. If there is a branding, grading, rating and tracking process it would be very useful for one and all using the web for different purposes all over the world.

      • As this is a writing site, I focused on those scams. There are many others, i.e. dating sites, and of course when you go to buy something online.

    • it is really scary nowadays to surf the internet … no once can control anything

      • You don’t use your real name. You don’t use your real address, you never give your credit card number, and never put up a real photo. You’ve just cut your chance of being scammed by 60%

    The only time I thought of Macedonia was when I was reading a book about Alexander the Great.   Other than that, it’s not a place you’ll hear about in the news.

    Not until recently, when it came to light that […]

    • The Macedonians played US? Oh man! Somebody needs to tell our politicians cause they’re going after the Russians! I’m not good at geography but I’m pretty sure Macedonia and Russia are on two entirely different points on the map. You don’t suppose the Russians hired the Macedonians. Hmmmm? That would be interesting “connect the dots” scenario.

    • Maybe I’m the only one that can check an IP? Macedonians had no interest in politics. They were looking for money. It was exactly as Ulsterman did. He created ‘The Whitehouse Insider’ because he knew people hated Obama and would read anything and believe it.

      The chaps in Macedonia tried a number of different ideas before they hit on this one. It was the Macedonians who said the Pope supported Trump.

      These are just young men, not political. They were just spoofing.

    • What! This is shocking news to me. Never in my life did i think that people can do this sorts of things but you have just confirmed my fears. I used to think this things are not for real now I know better. I have often asked myself why Americans don’t like people from west Africa so it’s because many were played online? I was in a dating site one time and this was purely innocent I was working on something so I registered in one of th sites so that I can see for myself what people talk about. Each time a guy would come up and request for friendship he would make it very clear on his profile that he is looking for a serious person and he is not willing to send anyone any money or get anyone a visa. And then they would also say that they are not a lottery where money can just be picked at pleasure. Last but not least they would say that do not want to be associated with anyone from Nigeria or Ghana for that matter.now I realize that it was just being biased but something had to have happened for them to say that. Then it was also mandatory that you had Skype so that you could verify for sure that you were talking to someone real. This online games can really make someone go insane and just do stuff that is not right. Thank God I found the truth and got me out of this sorts of things.
