The data […]
‘De bedoeling is om Kim Jong-un bij zinnen te brengen, niet op zijn knieën’, zei Admiraal Harris tijdens een briefing van de Amerikaanse Senaat.

Het Nibud moet ervoor zorgen dat mensen niet in de financiële problemen komen. Onlangs constateerde deze club dat een aanzienlijk deel van de bevolking bij de dag leeft en dat een deel van de onmacht om te sparen genetisch bepaald is.
