PREVENTION OF CORRUPT PRACTICES AND TRANSFER OF FUNDS OF ILLICIT ORIGIN :REPORT OF THE SECRETARY-GENERAL : ADDENDUM
In addition, according to the new law, the casinos
will be obliged by law to declare any activities
suspected to be linked to terrorism or to organized
crime activities as well as to record the identity of
clients as well as any sum of money that is over to the
amount established by law.
(...) In view of the fact that the biggest problem in
recovering funds acquired illegally and transferred
abroad, as well as in dealing with bribery in
international transactions, is that the criminals are able
to use offshore zones and online bank accounts to
conduct various kinds of financial transactions,
Ukraine has initiated agreements on mutual legal aid
with, inter alia, Antigua and Barbuda and Hong Kong.

UNITED NATIONS OPERATION IN CYPRUS :REPORT OF THE SECRETARY-GENERAL
The
mission tried to mitigate the situation by promoting the use of online platforms by
civil society actors, with some limited success. (...) Established
mechanisms for cooperation, such as those between the two Nicosia municipalities (the
Nicosia Municipal Coordination Group and the Nicosia Master Plan) remained dormant
during the reporting period, owing to the difficulty of operating by online means. In
response, the mission strengthened its capacity to facilitate online connections and
sought creative ways to continue to support dialogue and cooperation across the divide.
(...) The leaders and representatives of Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot political
parties maintained their regular meetings, some of them online, under the auspices of
the Embassy of Slovakia.

SUMMARY OF STAKEHOLDERS' SUBMISSIONS ON SOLOMON ISLANDS :[UNIVERSAL PERIODIC REVIEW] : REPORT OF THE OFFICE OF THE UNITED NATIONS HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS
ECPAT International also noted that there were no provisions under Solomon
Islands law that define or criminalize forms of online child sexual exploitation other than
child sexual abuse materials, such as live streaming of sexual abuse material, online
grooming, online sexual extortion or unsolicited sexting. Further, the law criminalizing
child sexual abuse materials and associated conducts did not explicitly refer to offences
committed in the online environment. Another omission in the law relating to child sexual
abuse materials was the lack of an exemption clause concerning sexting between minors.
(...) ECPAT International also stated that the increasing use of mobile phones and the
proliferation of Internet access presented potential and growing new vulnerabilities to the
sexual exploitation of children in the online environment, including perpetrators’ new ways
to groom and exploit children.104

The first half is the INSTALLATION PERIOD

A MAJOR BUBBLE COLLAPSE MARKS THE SWING OF THE PENDULUM

NATURE OF INFRASTRUCTURES

Need credit creation through bubble boom and short-term CAPITAL GAINS
Once the bubbles collapse, the job is done THE NEW PARADIGM IS INSTALLED AND CAN BE DEPLOYED
But that requires a structural shift away from the casino economy
The length of the process depends on the social and political forces The last time around it took over a decade and a major war
