🇪🇸❤️🚨 @rubenuria: "As I imagine many of you know that Leo Messi has donated €80,000 for the reconstruction of Sierra Oeste in Madrid. As a Madrid resident, I simply want to say thank you to him and hopefully soon he visits the capital of Spain so we can give him a standing ovation first and then the hug he deserves for helping in these very complicated moments, especially when he had zero obligation to do so.
"This gesture from Leo speaks to how great he is both on and off the field. A true gentleman. I know Leo well and I know he doesn't like this to be known or talked about because he doesn't care for publicity, nor does he need it.
"But I do want people to know. Why? Because this isn't Messi's only donation. Just so people know, Messi already donated a significant amount of money to the Red Cross in other parts of Spain. Messi also extended help to combat the effects of that damn DANA [storm] that devastated Valencia and that our Valencian friends suffered from. Furthermore, just so people know, Messi along with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo also wanted to help those affected by the earthquakes in Venezuela.
"Messi, I repeat, does not need publicity, nor does he want it. But at least for me, I damn well feel like making it known. He isn't just the number one of all time on the pitch, but he is also the greatest outside of it. Thank you, Leo, in the name of many Madrid residents, and of course, many Spaniards."
❗️Leo Messi gave World Cup match tickets to people who couldn’t afford them, including the family of Cape Verde goalkeeper Josimar Vozinha. @yanilatorre 🇦🇷❤️🇨🇻
Yes, those photos you’ve seen are real.
More than 18 years ago, a baby named Lamine Yamal and his mom Sheila met Lionel Messi at a UNICEF fundraising photoshoot.
Today, their achievements on the pitch inspire millions. Off the pitch, both Messi and Lamine Yamal use their voices and platforms as UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadors to support and advocate for children around the world.
The goal? That every child survives, thrives, and fulfils their potential.
We are proud to have them on our team.

They're right for Japan, Korea, and Singapore. Those guys source 75% of refined products from the Persian Gulf. Hormuz closes, they bleed.
But Indonesia is a different story entirely.
Yes, Indonesia imports refined products. Pertamina's refining capacity doesn't fully cover domestic demand, so Pertalite and Solar get bridged through imports. The Hormuz shock hits that. Real exposure.
What makes Indonesia different is this.
Indonesia's actual risk from this isn't supply. It's fiscal. If oil prices spike because Hormuz stays closed, the government's subsidy bill for Pertalite and Solar expands. Wider deficit, rupiah pressure. That's the bear case for Indonesia, and even that's manageable.
The bull case is what nobody is talking about.
Indonesia runs B40 right now. 40% of every liter of diesel consumed domestically is palm oil biodiesel, not petroleum. When oil spikes, the incentive to push toward B50 or B55 gets stronger overnight. Import volume drops. Indonesia self-hedges using its own CPO supply. No other country in Asia has this. Not Korea, not Japan, not Singapore.
Then there's coal.
When Hormuz disrupts LNG and oil flows into Asia, the fastest lever available to power generators in Japan, Korea, and India is gas to coal switching. Indonesia is the world's largest seaborne thermal coal exporter. ADARO, ITMG, PTBA, BUMI don't suffer from this scenario. Export volumes go up. Realized prices go up. Royalty revenue to the government goes up.
Same logic on LNG. Indonesia exports from Bontang and Tangguh. When Middle Eastern supply gets disrupted, the spot premium on non Gulf LNG widens. Indonesian cargoes price up.
Same logic on CPO. High oil equals strong biodiesel demand globally equals strong CPO prices. Indonesia and Malaysia control 85% of global supply.
You see, Indonesia pays more for refined product imports. Fiscal subsidy pressure rises. Rupiah is a watch item. Those are real negatives.
But Indonesia earns more on coal exports, earns more on LNG spot, earns more on CPO, and reduces net petroleum import volume through accelerated biodiesel blending. The terms of trade move in Indonesia's favor, not against it.
The conventional take is "Indonesia is a net oil importer so oil shock is bad." The correct take is Indonesia is a net energy exporter in the commodities that directly substitute for disrupted Persian Gulf supply. A sustained Hormuz closure improves Indonesia's aggregate energy trade position, not deteriorates it.
Happy Sunday and Happy Easter.

My thoughts: there should be a line drawn between remembering history and being entrapped in history to engage in endless cycle of hate. The second is what CCP is doing.
Serbuan rumah Sahroni itu pengalihan isunya. Dia mah diinfo dari kemaren2 sama tukang nasgor makanya dese di Tumasik sekarang. Kata mereka korbankan rumahmu, kuganti dengan yang lebih bagus. Jadi deh "demo anarkis" ditindak tegas dan dengan alasan keamanan militer semakin nyaman depan bawah atas belakang. Jelas ya.
This big amount of money exist for animation production. Yes. Give me 3 miliar and I'll establish my own animation studio. I'll sewa ruko kecil di Kosambi I'll assemble a small and capable team then make good 2d animation films without campur tangan stupid investor. Ya Allah.
Many people won’t like to hear this but the only impressive thing about Cristiano Ronaldo’s International career is the remarkable longevity.
His goals per game record doesn’t compare to the greats.
His performances in major tournaments average at best.
Big k/o games, awful.
