I am a victim of Stalking and Harassment. If you have never been stalked you have no idea what it feels like, but in real life it's a type of abuse, as it makes the victims feel vulnerable. According to the Stalking Advocacy Service website, Veritas the definition of stalking as    “A pattern of fixated and obsessive behaviour, which is unwanted, repeated, persistent and intrusive and causes fear of violence or engenders alarm and distress in the victim”. In the legal terms Stalking and Harassment are associated together.  " Stalking became a criminal offence on the 25th  of November 2012. Stalking has no single definition in legislation, which has contributed to an unacceptably low number of recorded crimes and prosecutions.  " Stalking behaviour includes following, watching, spying, monitoring, someone that causes the alarm and distress on the victims. These are the most obvious behaviour my by stalker, but each stalker's behaviour could be different.  Stalking is i

Introduction to the World's Most Dangerous Man In my opinion, Donald Trump, the current president of the United States is the most dangerous person in the world. He has become the most hated, untrustworthy, and dangerous leader for so many reasons. He is not just the biggest threat for the American Democracy, tthe traditional Republican Party, but also the biggest obstacle for the global trade, peace , prosperity, and also in fighting against the Coronavirus and climate change. According to the Surveys,   Donald Trump is the most Hated, Untrustworthy, and Dangerous Leader in the world, and the Biggest Threat to the World's Peace and Prosperity .  He is "the King of Hatred, Lies, Racist, Division, Fear, Tensions, Bombshells and Wars".  It's Karma, what goes around comes around.  Under Trump's leadership America has not just lost its soul, but also the global leadership, reputation and aspiration being a role model. Donald Trump has created a toxic culture of no

It’s about the comparison between China and the UK; the two very different cultures, lifestyles, histories, social, economic and political systems. I am also writing about the British royal family; their survival secrets, historical love stories, romance, and tragedies. It also includes the growing influence of rising China and the bigotry from the West.  My unique views and analysis are by standing on the edge of the coin that enables me to see the both sides of the coin, which is coming from my real-life experience. Please keep checking the blog for the future updates. 我计划在2020年的秋天出版我的第一本书，非小说《中国人眼中的英国》咸艳华著 ，请继续查看我的网站。

西湖位于浙江省的首府 - 杭州市，是个非常出名的景点，都说不到西湖看，就像没有来过杭州。这里的最主要景点包括，西湖、雷峰塔和千岛湖。关于后两个景点，请读雷峰塔记和千岛湖记博客。 2019 年 8 月我回国探亲，跟我的父母、哥哥和妹妹还有我的侄女团聚，有幸拜访此大名鼎鼎、美丽、富有传奇色彩的湖水。杭州是中国的第一富翁，阿里巴巴的创始人 - 马云（ the founder of Alibaba, Jack Ma ）的故乡，可惜的是我没有在街上碰到他！ 在上海的旅游结束后，我们在那里雇了一辆轿车驰往杭州，大约得了两个多小时。中途我看到有些车牌是绿色的，我就问道： “哥，那些车牌子怎么是绿色的，怎么跟其他的不一样啊？”我在英国长期住，对国内的发展还是“迟钝”，对不起。 “那是电动车，环保，所以特赏绿牌子，一看就是绿色汽车。“ 当时英国还没有这种政策， 当我回国后的 10 月，新闻报导英国也要对电动汽车发行绿色牌子了，我想他们肯定是跟中国学的，因为， 我在英国住，从来没有见过绿牌子的汽车。 我们的酒店就在西湖旁边，这很方便。到那里是已经是傍晚。卸下行李，吃完晚餐后，我们一家在西湖边漫游。跟高楼大厦林立、到处都是霓虹灯闪烁、繁华的南京路和上海相比的话，西湖边感到安静和暗淡。夏天蚊子很多，因此，到西湖一定要准备驱蚊膏等为妙。 第二天我们一早就坐船游西湖，感觉很美，诗情画意。不久我们就到了中间的岛上，那里有四个小湖，其中的一个就是日月潭，湖中有湖。有一个湖里，长满了莲花，有桥和凉亭，非常美丽。慢走在那弯曲的小桥，观望湖水和争奇斗艳的莲花感觉非常诗意。另外，走在两边长满竹子的弯曲卵石道，远离城市的喧嚣，感觉很宁静，心旷神怡。对于在北方长大的我们，壬生第一次经历这么富有南方风格的美景，当然值得千里迢迢的路程了。我们不禁照了很多相片。我的儿子理查德，吹着鸟鸣笛子，也感到很兴奋。 你也许问，西湖不就是挖了一个坑，填得水吗，我的家乡也有。不同的是，西湖自古以来被著名的唐代诗人李白和白居易笔下所吟诵，千古有名。这里又是非常有人气的电视连续剧“新白娘子传奇“的拍摄地点，有雷锋塔和断桥，有神秘的传奇故事，你们有吗？这种诱人的故事和特色使西湖成为名胜古迹独具

I read this book in 2007, it is one of my favorite personal financial books of all time. Robert Kiyosaki is one of the most influential people in my life; his books have completely changed my mindset about money and wealth creation. I have bought and read about 20 books by Robert Kiyosaki and his advisers. The below diagram is his famous Cashflow Quadrant.
