RE: Britain Losses it’s Top AAA Credit Rating and try to regain its status.

Good Afternoon Mr. Chancellor. I have said so in my last writing to you on September 28, 2012 on the subject of UK Breaking Debt Rule. I informed you how long and painful the process of reducing debt would be and how your government can reduce the debt without choking of recovery and global demand. Here it was my last writing to you. “UK keeps it top AAA credit rating because market expects that your government would keep the budget tight. But your government failed to keep the budget tight. If you lost AAA credit rating, interest rates will shoot up and UK will never be able to diminish its deficit. Indeed, UK GDP is shrinking. Therefore there will be less tax revenues to reduce fiscal deficit. But I don’t see any attempts by your government to diminish the fiscal deficit during 2012. UK adopted austerity plans in the past two years to limit government spending and keep borrowing rates very low but the UK economic recovery remains challenge due to weak global economy and banking troubles across major developed economies. Your government is not executing effective fiscal consolidation programme which should not restrain economic growth”. If I am not mistaken, UK banking system is not stable, banks are not lending, exports is not rising, housing is not stable, private investment is not recovering and structural reforms are not in place. It is very difficult for UK government to regain its AAA status in a year. I insisted many times your good office, UK need renewed investment in non-financial businesses to reduce government deficits. If UK want to regain its AAA status, you need intense focus on export market, corporate tax used to attract inward investment, explicit targeting on high value FDI, ensure SME have adequate access to finance, encouraging business growth and structural reforms should be in place. What I observed, most of the policy makers around the world heading in different directions because of that there will be no hope of actually making any progress. If UK wants to improve its public finances, you should impose heavy tax on tobacco products and luxury items, reduce NHS costs, and reduce benefits spending. I am confident that these all have positive impact on net revenues and would have significant benefits for UK economy.       

Thank you very much for your kind attention Mr. Chancellor.    

Sincerely regards,

Nagorno-Karabakh conflict

To put things into perspective, Nagorno-Karabakh is not an independent entity but an occupied territory of the Azerbaijan Republic and is recognised by the international community and the UN. The fact that the Armenian Prime Minister's son is doing his military service in the Armenian army located in Azerbaijan's Nagorno-Karabakh and started an undeclared war against Azerbaijan, occupied Nagorno-Karabakh and 7 adjacent regions of Azerbaijan, and massacred and forcefully deported Azerbaijani aborigines was the main reason for the lack of peace in the region. The laws of armed conflict failed to protect the Nagorno-Karabakh civilian population, individual civilians, and civilian property. The laws of armed conflict failed to discriminate between those taking parts in the fighting in Nagorno-Karabakh. The laws of armed conflict failed to protect the environment as war causes severe or long term damage to the environment. The fact here is that there is a number of international doc...

SUGGESTION TO THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTIONAL COURT, GERMANY  To:               The Right Honorable Federal Constitutional Court Vice President  From:           Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date:            05.10.2011 RE:               Issuance of Eurobond   Suggestion:    Approval of Issuing Eurobond Good Morning Prof. Dr. Kirchhof. I am writing to express that Federal constitutional court explicitly rules out Eurobonds a few weeks ago. In addition you had warned, Ms. Angela Merkel, a Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, never again to propose Eurobond. This is certainly not good news for me as well as Europe. German brothers and sisters in the Euroland must help in this difficult moment with iss...

SUGGESTION TO THE PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN YOSHIHIKO NODA

SUGGESTION TO THE PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN YOSHIHIKO NODA To: The Right Honorable Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: 30.09.2011 RE: Japan Energy Policy Suggestion: Changing Industrial Policy Good Morning Prime Minister. BBC World broadcasted your speech regarding alternate energy sources. I agree with your approach to reduce nuclear power in the medium term because having the nuclear reactors in an earthquake prone zone is not safe for the environment or the communities that live near them. Japan is struck in a difficult situation concerning energy. If you want to eventually move away from the nuclear energy, you’ll have to invest more alternative energy sources. If you can’t invest, then it may have to say with a nuclear power for a while. You need make the right decision because source of energy is dwindling. You have one more option which is Japanese people depend on nuclear power with only 1% but 9% including hydroe...
