SUGGESTION TO SWISS NATIONAL BANK PRESIDENT PHILIPP HILDEBRAND

RE: Rise in Swiss Franc

Suggestions & Solutions:

Good Morning President. I am writing to express the concern of rise in swiss franc. We know that currency appreciation boosts a strong economy, low inflation and low unemployment. In addition, it lowers the cost of commodity imports. In general currency appreciation softens the demand for exports but in Switzerland exports rise. I think that most of the swiss goods are “Veblen Goods”. If we bought swiss goods of their class and quality so as its price goes up so the demand for the good also rises. For instance “Rolex Watches”. As a result high swiss franc is increasing its exports.

Switzerland is not plagued by a high national debt and perennial budget deficits. Its monetary policy has been extremely conservative: no quantative easing, asset purchases or any other money printing programs. Ironically the only thing that makes investors nervous about the franc is that swiss franc appreciation.

Swiss National Bank booked a loss of CHF billion from failed intervention in 2010. Mr. Kendrick Reckons said that SNB may have lost CHF 38 billion. SNB should not in a position to make same mistake again. In my opinion swiss bought large amount of foreign currency to artificially stem the swiss franc’s rise and that those assets then preceded unexpectedly to deflate relative to the swiss franc. Switzerland should protect the swiss franc appreciation. I would recommend apply a commission of 2% to any transactions of buyers from abroad (i.e non-residents) for amounts over CHF 1,000,000. This would immediately stop the strengthening of the swiss franc until the European storm has passed.

In my opinion, large margin of currency appreciation in a short period of time is not good for sustainable economy.

Thank you very much for your kind attention President.

Sincerely,

Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja

BRITAIN’S BREXIT BATTLE 2019

To: The Right Honourable European Commission President Hon. Jean-Claude Juncker From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: August 19, 2019 RE: BRITAIN’S BREXIT BATTLE Suggestion: Hon. European Commission President, let me start by paying my respects to you and through you to. The UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has insisted repeatedly that backstop must go, if not then no deal BREXIT but he support the GFA and custom-free border between the UK (Northern Ireland) and the EU (Republic of Ireland). That is a blatant contradiction. How can he have it both ways? If the UK wanted to exit from the EU bloc without a deal - the return of a hard border is absolutely necessary. Why BREXITERS are object to the backstop? The reason behind that it would give the EU way to keep a toehold in future UK trade policy. If the UK wanted to leave the EU without backstop, in other words, a hard BREXIT or there is been no exit agreement by both the UK and the EU – then the r

HONG KONG EXTRADITION BILL 2019

To: The Right Honourable Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China Ms. Carrie Lam From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: August 29, 2019 RE: HONG KONG EXTRADITION BILL 2019 Suggestion: Hon. Chief Executive of the Hong Kong let me start by paying my respects to you and through you to. “One Country Two Systems” structure compels Hong Kong to operate currently under different legal system than that of Mainland China. You published the extradition bill on March 29, 2019 and first reading on April 3, 2019 which will destroy Hong Kong legal independence because extradition bill is another attempt for China to take away the Hong Kong independent legal system that China has agreed for Hong Kong to keep until 2047. Thus, the people of Hong Kong marched their protest against the bill on June 9, 2019. Hong Kong protests are still continuing. The silence of your government leads me to believe you have no plan t

EU NEW FISCAL AUTHORITY FOR WEAK MEMBER STATES

This paper focuses on setting up new fiscal authority to manage compatible fiscal decentralisation and budgetary discipline in the EU Member States. The authority need to adopt a tough fiscal consolidation programme. The authority should be responsible for designing fiscal policy for all Member States with stricter rules, conscientious monitoring and enforcement mechanisms for the conduct of fiscal decentralisation and budgetary policy. If Member States does not implement or violate the fiscal authority law that Member State/States to be sued in the European Court of Justice. We cannot grow our economy without proper fiscal cooperation between Member States. So the fiscal authority must coach at least weak Member States how to implement effective fiscal policy so that crony driven economy can be turned into a competitive market based economy. EU established the provisions of the Stability and Growth Pact (SGP) to avoid excessive deficits of the Member States and take precise act
