This is Shopee’s free shipping slogan. When I usually go to Shopee to pick up goods, I don’t pay much attention to the scenery in front of the store. Today, when I went there, I was waiting for Shopee to open. While I was waiting, I was surprised to find that the words printed on the red cloth hanging in front of the store were so laughable. I didn’t find it funny, but on the way home, I felt the corners of my mouth slightly raised, unable to laugh. What kind of marketing or creative thinking would use an slogan like this to “emphasize the original $0 free shipping mechanism”, but use a sentence that can’t be beaten as a gimmick to attract people’s short-term attention. There are several problems with this slogan. First, breaking up with your ex does not necessarily mean that one of you has been cheated on. Secondly, since you have been cheated on, you will not be surprised if your ex comes back to get back together. Third, “If you cheat, your ex won’t come back” is regarding human relationships, a human condition; and free shipping for 0 yuan is a marketing strategy formulated by merchants. How can the two be equal or used as connecting sentences? Perhaps as an slogan, its eye-catching appeal serves its purpose. But for people who don’t know why and don’t know how to think, even if it’s just a little ripple flowing through their hearts and soon forgotten, is it possible that it can become a negative teaching material? Pedestrians coming and going on the street or residents living nearby, if they have smaller children, do not understand the meaning of words, they can speculate, associate, and then internalize it into a kind of knowledge. Children learn that “green” has other meanings, referring to a certain state of human relations. I don’t object to the representation of words that are popular and popularized. After all, this is part of the culture of the common people. But I hate labeling or generalizing any relationship or situation with specific words.

TIROLER TAGESZEITUNG “Editorial” from November 20, 2023 by Peter Nindler “Too many questions, too few answers”

Innsbruck (OTS) – The black-red state government has maneuvered itself into an obvious decision-making vacuum. At the end of the year, the government’s engine is sputtering, and at the same time the distrust of the opposition is increasing month by month.
The challenges in the state are great, but the black-red state government is heading towards the end of the year with more unanswered questions than answers. Too many construction sites have opened up in the past few months, a large proportion of which are inherited legacy issues. New problems have also arisen, such as the swimming pool misery, which threatens to sink the black and red team. At the same time, almost fourteen months following the state elections, distrust has spread between the government and the opposition parties FPÖ, List Fritz, the Greens and NEOS.
The state government cannot survive into the coming year with the state budget. Because with net new debt of 178 million euros and a peak debt level of 1.175 billion euros, political trappings have to be done rather quietly. So what’s wrong with the current engine of government?
The financial bankruptcy of the market town of Matrei in East Tyrol, the bankruptcy of the municipal association’s own service company GemNova, the disputes over the Zillertalbahn, in which a decision for a hydrogen drive was made in advance and without critical analysis, or now the pause button for the new MCI building, which cost 250 million euros in Innsbruck, the state government was put on the defensive almost in a staccato manner. Not to forget the financial followingmath of the 2019 Nordic World Ski Championships in Seefeld. Despite admittedly difficult conditions, it is Governor Anton Mattle (ÖVP) and his coalition partner LHStv. Georg Dornauer (SPÖ) has so far not been able to convey political problem-solving skills convincingly. Not even on a topic as emotional as swimming pools.
The pause for reflection on the new MCI building does not solve the task, but merely delays it. Red-Black also pushes the tense relationship with the state energy supplier Tiwag in front of them like a junk shop. Chamber of Labor President Erwin Zangerl is setting the pace here – already looking ahead to the chamber elections at the end of January. Because it is far from enough if Mattle and Dornauer always criticize Tiwag’s communication strategy; what matters is what electricity price is on the customers’ bills.
Too much has built up politically recently, so the state government must finally get into decision-making mode. As she demonstrated with childcare. Black and red are still miles away from design anyway.

Ivory Coast: the opening of the Yamoussoukro-Bouaké highway facilitates transport

Truck or coach drivers, passengers and economic players are delighted with the opening of the last section of the highway connecting Abidjan to Bouaké by expressway. On the other hand, traders who were used to seeing passengers regularly stop along the old track are seeing a drastic drop in their revenue.
From our correspondent in Abidjan,
The coach taking the Abidjan-Bouaké line makes a short break at Tiébissou. Abou, backpack on one shoulder, gets off the bus to stretch his legs. He regularly uses transport to make this journey. “ The journey is faster, simpler and smoother. So, I find it impeccable compared to previous years, so that’s very good. »
On August 23, the last section of the Abidjan-Bouaké highway was inaugurated in Tiébissou. It doubles the old track, narrow and deteriorated. Less fatigue, fewer accidents, and vehicles that better support the journey. This is also the observation of bus driver Amara Doumia. “ Before, there were a lot of stops, as it was on the small track. Often there are collisions and cars break down. »
Road driver, Ali Ouedraogo operates on the Ouagadougou-Abidjan route. Ivory Coast is the first trading partner of Burkina Faso. It is through this strategic axis that the majority of goods pass. “ On the old road, it might take a whole day because of the state of the roadexplains the driver. Now, we drivers are the ones who are comfortable. »
Aggrieved traders
From next year, the economic impact of the opening of this last section will be able to be estimated. But not everyone benefits from the new highway. Traders who used to work along the old road feel wronged, like Fanta Bakayoko, who waits in front of her sweet potato and tomato stall.
« There was a lot of traffic. People came every day, there was a crowd, but now it’s not like that. Today, we are in debt. Since it’s food, once it’s left, you can’t sell it the next day. You have to be in debt. Today, there is not a street trader who is not in debt. We are all in debt “, she laments.
Fanta plans to find a new location near the expressway and prefers to philosophize. “ It’s evolution, we want to move forward. Everyone pays the price, these are the disadvantages of development. »
The northern highway is part of the major structuring motorway project for sub-regional integration: opening up the north and creating the Dakar-Lagos corridor by 2035.
