@rojasrjuand@compactmag to be fair the Quintana Roos of the world are growing even faster than the Queretaros and Nuevo Leons. having a Cancun or Punta Cana is a nice source of divisas and jobs. trouble for Portugal is their tourism is more of the Condesa, Roma, Medellin gentrifying variety
4/ Chega, however, is also very corrupt hence immigration explains the bulk of its appeal.
The number of foreign citizens in Portugal more than doubled from 620,000 to 1.5 million since 2020 in a country of just 10 million. 70% now say they want less

@Joe_Nye professor do you think widespread use of English is an important US soft power asset? should US sponsor/facilitate/study replacement of classroom instruction with AI tutoring, esp in countries with high but not 100% English penetration, like Philippines, India, Nigeria?

Today's deal means the UK is becoming a rule-taker on food, animal, and other agricultural products from the EU.

The health ministry has released a new 1,000-page document with the names, ages and other info, of 52,959 Palestinians killed in Gaza.
For the first 100 pages (over 5,000 names), the age is listed at 5 years or younger.
The first 18 pages the age is listed as 0 (under 1 year)
@Ramiroyess@infopresidencia A brasil parece que le va bien trabajando con los chinos. Ha llegado a ser el mayor productor y proveedor de soya a nivel mundial - siendo esta exportacion su mayor fuente de divisas - apoyandose principalmente en la demanda china. Los metros de Quito y Bogota parecen bien
@HarvardGrwthLab Should more third world countries emulate institutions like Embrapa and Fiocruz? Does life sciences have a lot of forward and backward and lateral linkages? Can regulatory quid pro quo (eg allowing drugs with safety trial clearance only, not efficacy) attract r&d / factory JVs?
