26 Sept is the birthday of India's former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. Excerpt from my @ProSyn article: "he insisted on the highest standard of honesty. When, in 2010, inflation was raging & some bureaucrats suggested that it might be best not to hurt his political standing by releasing so much price data, he put his foot down, insisting there should be no compromise on statistical transparency, even if it dented his poll numbers." @ProSyn?referral=2da718 prosyn.org/ew9NrEB

#India’s Taxation and Other Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2026 removes the legal provision that has kept #UPI transactions free of Merchant Discount Rate (#MDR) since 2020. The key question now: will charges be limited to large merchants while protecting small businesses and low-value digital payments?: @BardhanArya or-f.org/39983

Distinguished Columbia Univ. Prof. Jeff Sachs on how the rest of the world should respond to Pres. Trump's threats: “For the world to hold together, the rest of the world has to say, we're not going down crazy lane. Because if we normalize craziness, there is no way out.”

Former U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns says the U.S. is "wavering" from the Taiwan Relations Act of 1979, saying "that's a very dangerous thing to do." He adds that President Trump rolling out the red carpet for Chinese President Xi Jinping earlier this week was unprecedented, saying, "We should treat our allies better than we treat our adversaries. China is an adversary. I would have preferred to have seen a state dinner this week for the Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi...She's a true ally."

#WATCH | China | A local says, "Today is a very important day in China, especially for Chinese people, because it's the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is a very important festival in China. The festival falls on the day of the full moon, and in China, the full moon is a symbol of reunion. So, on this day, people usually go back to their hometowns and spend time with their family members to celebrate the festival together. We often eat mooncakes on this day..."
