Chinese Reclamation Spratly Islands.

Threatens Stability of ASEAN and Surrounding Areas.

Construction of the Spratly Islands which made China makes a lot of countries around worried, because very likely the area was transformed into a military base.

Not without reason that concerns arise, because clearly visible runway built China in the Spratly Islands is able to accommodate all types of aircraft, both commercial aircraft and fighter planes.
Not only the ASEAN countries which feel threatened its security, but also Australia and the United States, because if China has a military base in the area, long-distance bombers belonging to them, Xian H-6K, can launch cruise missiles capable of destroying all military fisilitas United States in Australia.
"Reclamation is certainly violate semanagt declaration of behavior (DOC) between China and ASEAN in 2002," said Greg Poling, an analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).

China's development is carried out in the island expected to be completed within the next 10 years or even faster.
Polls reveal that the DOC aims to facilitate dialogue between ASEAN member countries and China. DOC is expected to be a deterrent confrontation in the South China Sea that have the potential to get worse.
Unfortunately, since declared, DOC is like a toothless tiger. China of course continue to do development and dialogue agreed never go according to expectations.

Vietnam and the Philippines, which both claim the Spratlys could not do much against Chinese behavior. During both Hanoi and Manila have already voiced their objections with quite vocal. For prevention of attacks from China, Vietnam arming themselves. They buy the latest weaponry from Russia worth billions of dollars the United States, including more than 20 pieces of fighter bomber Su-30 type.
The Vietnamese government also made a strategic port in Cam Ranh Bay to naval world. One of the building bases there is the United States.

On the other hand, the Philippines chose take legal action in the UN International Court on the Law of the Sea. The Philippines also bought two new battleships would be a maritime fleet to counter China's ambitions in the South China Sea.
Although the two countries are already preparing to arm themselves, however their capabilities are still far below China.
"Vietnam and the Philippines have limited choices. They can not use force, does not want to compete to do the construction development in the Spratlys which will only make the situation unstable. They also can not win the competition (development)," said Poling.

Not only that, many observers considered that the massive development measures carried out China in disputed territory, located in the South China Sea has its own purpose, ie more stick nails as the legitimate owner of the area. Military facilities that will be built in the area that also makes China has far more advantages than other countries participating claiming the island.
"This facility, seems to be built with the aim of forcing countries other claimants to give up their ownership claims, or at least (this development) will make the Chinese have a stronger negotiating position on the disputed area," said the defense official publication IHS Janes.
IHS is a company that provides information and analysis to support business and government who will make decisions on industrial, defense, security, energy, technology, trade and maritime.

Separately, the Chinese government dismissed allegations that his country is going to attack.
"The action (development in the Spratlys) will not target or affect anybody," said Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi.
"We are not like other countries do the construction illegally in the territory of others. We do not accept criticism from others when we build our own facilities in the area," he added.

Immigrants In New Land.

Now Helps Others immigrated.

Moutassem Yazbek is one of the very few successful Syrian refugees reached Italy and went on a trip to the land of dreams, Germany. Since the end of 2014, he lived and worked there, he also opens himself to the Syrian immigrants newly arrived in Germany.

"I vowed to do in order to reach Europe. The risk is very heavy, but the fear and abuse that I received has finally paid off. Now I have a much better life," said Yazbek. Before arriving in Europe, he stopped in Dubai and before the period of validity of the visa expired last December, Syrian man was listed as working in Dubai.
When the visa can not be extended again, would not want Yazbek have to leave Dubai. Europe became a major destination that comes to mind. At that time he was not sure where the European countries that became the goal.
What is clear he will not return to Syria.
"Returning (to Syria) means you have to kill or be killed and only that choice," said the man with the mustache.

As citizens of Syria, Yazbek not need a visa to enter Turkey, then from Dubai he moves towards Turkey. At the end of 2013 he managed to set foot in the State of the Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Blue Mosque) is. Once in Turkey, precisely in the city of Istanbul, he continued his dream of reaching Europe as quickly as possible.
From Facebook, Yazbek know about the city of Mersin, a port city on the southern tip of Turkey is the gateway to Italy. So far, the path that is always skipped illegal immigrants.
"No need to think too long, I directly into Mersin," he said.
In the hotel where he was staying, he met with other Syrian man who is ready to cross over to Italy. Of the man he knew a smuggler smuggler and was then brought it to Europe. But the price to pay to achieve their dreams Yazbek is not cheap, and after haggling the smugglers who reportedly had a very good reputation among illegal immigrants agreed travel price Yazbek. The two men agreed to trade USD 6,500 (about Rp. 84,18 million)

Historic day finally arrived. At the crossing, Yazbek join about 100 other immigrants. They headed smuggling points with five bus. Unexpectedly, it was not smuggling point is in Mersin, located quite far from the port city. After arriving at the destination, Yazbek and other immigrants have to walk for about 30 minutes before finally climbed aboard.
The first vessel was boarded Yazbek small ship. Yazbek entourage is divided into three small boats. After a long journey, they arrived at a large ship on purpose, but after riding the boat does not go to leave, they had to wait for three days because there were two other immigrants who join the group. Each group of 100 people.

By carrying 300 people, the ship started sailing in the Mediterranean Sea. Eight hours later, the problem arises, the machine is damaged ship full of illegal immigrants was also oscillated. The waves took them to Cyprus. The crew aboard sends a distress signal so that no other boats were helping them. Soon the ship stumble reef and stranded.
"Cyprus coast guard ship later help us and return us back to Turkey," recalls Yazbek.

Fingerprinting of immigrants in Turkey was recorded, then they were released. But unlike most of his companions were cured and did not want to repeat a dramatic journey, Yazbek re planning a trip to Europe. Such Yazbek, other Syrian men, Fares al-Bashawat want to enjoy the beauty of life in Europe. Together with his family he succeeded in leaving the war-torn country to Egypt. From the city of Alexandria, Fares sends his wife and their two daughters to Italy. Now he plans to send two of her other children to the Blue Continent.
"I prefer to see my daughters died at sea on the way to pick up freedom rather than letting them remain in Syria," he said. Fares will now send a ten-year-old son to Italy. He hoped his son could later meet with his mother and two siblings in Italy. Thank you for reading this article.

Want to blue continent.

Find Happy, Meet Woe.

For residents in countries of conflict, like the European continent of hope. The lives of its inhabitants safe, comfortable and prosperous, not fulfilled their bullets whistle.
Therefore they are willing to take the distress in order to get to Europe and stayed in the blue continent.

In total there are people from 20 countries who migrate to Europe, each have their own reasons. Eritrea residents fled from persecution and conscription, Somalis want to flee from the attack Al Shabaab militants and residents of Syria wanted to get out of a prolonged civil war conflict in his country. Each one can dream of a better life in Europe.

"Last year, half the flow of immigrants coming from Syria and Eritrea. The thrust of the country of origin (to migrate) is actually much larger than the attractiveness of Europe itself," said Director of Migration Research in Altai Consulting Arezo Malakooti.

First immigrants from Eritrea to Israel, but after that country apply very strict rules, Europe became their sole purpose.
For the immigrants, they do not matter if they have to pay dearly. Normally all their property had been sold to pay for a trip to Europe, whether it be by land or sea. Costs are pegged smugglers to cross the Mediterranean Sea around USD 5 thousand (Rp. 64.5 million) per person, for immigrants, it is a one-way ticket.

They had two choices, dying at sea or foot and live in Europe. What is clear, returns home to his country was never an option.
"I was scared, I took a big risk, incoming European or die," said Al-Hajj, 25, a resident of Gambian origin.
Many of the immigrants who ran out of supplies while on the trip. They have to survive only by eating toothpaste or other items.

If the man can dream decent working and living in Europe, in contrast to the women. They want their children to be born in Europe. Thus the child automatically has a European citizenship and a decent living, not like their parents.
To be able to achieve the dream is not easy. A woman of Somali origin have to travel four thousand miles for 7 months in order to cross the Mediterranean Sea and childbirth in Europe.
Unfortunately, his wish is not reached. He was caught when the boat is still sailing in the waters of Libya. The baby was named Sabrine was born a week after Tripoli, the woman was still lucky, at least he is still alive, because hundreds of other immigrants do not have survived.

Throughout 2014, there were 3,200 immigrants who died in the Mediterranean Sea to get to Europe. Meanwhile, throughout the year there have been more than 1,600 people. Based on data from the International Organization for Migration (IOM), since 2000 already there were 22 thousand people were killed while trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea.

On the other hand, the rapid flow of refugees to Italy has given rise to a new job. Smugglers and middlemen search alias passengers. In addition to smugglers who should have acquaintance "insiders" and ship owners, intermediaries are important people in the business of smuggling refugees, because without intermediaries vessel quotas will not be met.

In addition to Turkey, Egypt has also become a gateway for illegal immigrants entering Europe, precisely through the City of Alexandria. According to Ahmad El-Chazli, activists of the Egyptian Initiative of Personal Rights, the summer becomes the peak flow of smuggling.
"Wave the biggest smuggling in the Mediterranean Sea always happens every summer," he said.

Data UNHCR says that about 219.000 illegal immigrants across the Mediterranean into Europe throughout 2014. During that period, at least 3,500 immigrants have died before it reached Europe, while since the beginning of 2015 until now no less than 35.000 asylum seekers had reached the southern region of Europe.

Did You Know About Making cloth.

1. Type of Material Based Process.

a. WOVEN / WEAVING.

Cloth made from the crossing of two threads with the way in weaving / woven. Often called the woven fabric. Woven material characteristics can not be in drag.

b. KNIT.

Fabrics made from the entanglements of the thread / yarn hooking with thread, often called the knit fabric. Characteristics of this fabric can pull or elastic.
Examples of knitted fabrics: jersey, interlock, rib, single jersey, tricot etc.

2. TYPES OF MATERIAL BASED ON RAW MATERIALS.

Animal Textiles (raw material of animal)

Generally derived from hair or fur and animal skin fibers. Fabric samples originating from animals that wool fabric and silk fabric. Wool is generally derived from sheep's wool, but can also be of fur llamas, camels and alpacas. There is also a fabric derived from sheep hair of Kashmir called Cashmere fabric. This fabric is expensive and uniquely valuable more frequent washing will be more subtle, but must use a special detergent such as shampoo. Wool and Cashmere relatively heavy and thick that is suitable for the area to cool cool. Generally used as jackets, coats, blankets, and traditional robes. Different again with silk fibers derived from silkworm cocoons. Silk fabric is very smooth and shiny so it looks fancy, so high-priced. Suitable formed into a variety of upscale fashion.

Plant Textiles (raw materials from plants)

Can be derived from roots, bark, leaves, and fruit plants. Examples of plants commonly processed into fabrics are cotton, cotton / kapok, jute, pandanus, bamboo, coconut, banana, pineapple, and various grass - grass. The fabrics are from cotton called cotton (cotton), in addition to cotton, cloth and drill also comes from cotton woven fibers, called pina pineapple fiber, from fiber linen tree called linen, etc.

For fabrics made from cotton or cotton is divided into two :

* Cotton combed

• Fiber finer yarn.
• Results Knitted and more flat appearance.

* Cotton carded

• Fiber yarn less smooth.
• Results of knitted and appearance of uneven material.

Characteristics of cotton combed or carded are :

 Material was cold and a little stiff
 Easy tangles
 Easy to absorb sweat
 Clothing / fabric will be damaged if immersed more than 2 hours in detergents
 Vulnerable to fungus
 When burned it smelled like burning paper, burning results will be ashes and the course of fire is slow.

Mineral Textiles (raw materials from mineral)

derived from minerals such as asbestos, basalt, iron, silver, glass fiber, and gold. Generally, when processed into fabric first formed into fibers or sheets. The intended use of minerals as a fabric for special reasons such as strength and elegance. Fabric of asbestos called vinyl.

Synthetic Textiles (raw material of artificial materials / chemicals / synthetic).

1. Aramid

Aramid is widely used for fire-fighting clothes, car and motorcycle racers. Aramid including types of nylon such as Nomex, Kevlar and Tawron is highly refractory materials, high temperature resistant, burning at a temperature of 53 oC.

2. Acrylic

Acrylic known by the trade name Acrilian, Cashmilon, Orlon, Vonnel, Wolacryl, and others. While modakrilat trade name Acrilan, Courtelle, Cresian, Dynel, Orlon, Redon and others.
In general nature similar to wool. Fabrics and garments from the acrylic has a soft grip, rua (bulky) light and heat insulator that can withstand the heat of the body but did not make the skin itch. Disadvantages of this material is the convenience in usage. The surplus is even if the fiber is unable to absorb water but moist taste when used and acrylic are dry faster compared to other synthetic fibers.
The washing can be used with regular soap and resistant to chemical dry cleaning and laundering other organic solvents. Acrylic is very sensitive to heat because it causes distorted material, therefore the ironing is only done with warm iron.

3. CDP

Abbreviation of cationic dyeable polyester, which is a type of synthetic fiber which is a modification of polyester fiber that can be dyed with a dye base and disperse dyes.

4. Polyester

Known by the trade name Terylene, Dacron, Trivera, Tetoron. Strength, good elasticity of polyester fibers to produce fabric which has good resistance to indentation or creases so that the heat does not require ironing. Disadvantages of polyester fabric is moist low absorption and high rigidity so that comfort is reduced.
Staining polyester done using color zar disperse rich color fastness and has excellent color to washing, rubbing and light.
Polyester fabric resistant to organic solvents and chemical washing / dry cleaning, as well as having excellent resistance against bacteria and fungi.

5. polyimide / Nylon

Also known as Perlon, caprolan and amilan, trilobal or anthrone, rislan, nomex and others. In general, these synthetic fibers are good insulators and can cause static electrical properties. Properties of strength and elasticity as well as excellent durability, resistance to attack by fungi, bacteria and insects.
Shortage of nylon fabric is low moisture absorption. Nylon can be washed with soap and alkali resistant to chemical washing / dry cleaning. Heat resistant nylon material is not high, at a temperature of 180 ° C, nylon board began sticky and damaged at 230oC temperature and melts at a temperature of 250oC.
Nylon can be dyed with acid dyes and metal complexes, against other dyes such as alkaline, direct, sulfur, but washing durability and ugly light.

6. Spandex

Better known as Lycra which is a trade mark of Du Pont. Has the properties of high elasticity, strong and has a high rub resistance. Spandex is a synthetic fiber types are known to have better elasticity of rubber. Spandex fabric can reach the level of elasticity to pull up to 500%.

Semi Synthetic fibers.

1. Capital

Capital or polynosic known as Avril, Hightel, Vincel, Zantrel and other woods are regenerated cellulose, viscose rayon type with a higher degree of polymerization and has a micro-fibrillar structure with a molecular chain length twice that of rayon, higher strength but creep along lower moisture regain.
Capital can be washed with soap or detergent and organic solvent and chemical washing / dry-cleaning and ironing with moderate temperatures, with heating such as ni creasing can be eliminated, the presence of steam in ironing the fabric makes it easy to be slick and looks shiny

2. Rayon Viscosa

Viscose rayon is a semi-synthetic fiber raw materials from natural wood which has a high cellulose content, so as to have comfort in a very good use in a variety of conditions

3. Rayon Acetat

Included in the semi-synthetic fibers that have good elasticity, but not enough to give a good tangle resistance. Rayon acetate is a poor conductor of heat but it is a good heat insulator therefore this material is widely used as upholstery fabrics
Washing can be carried out with lye soap and chemical washing / dry cleaning. Acetate cloth ironing done using a warm iron and indirect
Acetate rayon resistant microorganisms and insects but not resistant to mildew, especially in humid conditions

Blending / Mixed Fibres

Often to get cheaper prices and the strength of the material is then carried blending fabric / fiber mix for example T / C 65/35 (a mixture of polyester cotton), T / R 65/35 (a mixture of polyester rayon), CVC (a mixture of polyester cotton 50 / 50), cotton / lycra (97/3) and others.

1. TC (TETERTON Cotton) / Polyester - Cotton

This type of material is a mixture of 35% Combed Cotton and Polyester (Teteron) 65%. Compared to materials Cotton, TC material can absorb less sweat and a little heat in the body. TC usually made for bed linen, hem, pants.
Characteristics: More resistant 'shrinkage' (no shrinkage and expansion) despite being washed repeatedly and when burned will produce ash and charcoal, for detailed testing should be with certain chemicals.

2. CVC (Cotton Viscose)

This type of material is a mixture of 55% Combed Cotton and 45% Viscose. The advantages of this material is its degree of shrinkage (shrinkage pattern) is smaller than the material Cotton. This type of material also absorb perspiration.

3. Denim

Denim is the material of the products that we often call jeans. Denim itself was originally a mixture of wool, silky and cotton. But in the early 20th century the manufacture of denim material wearing only cotton fibers.

4. Identify types of materials practically.

1. Cotton

Cotton material is subtle but easily crumpled Touched,
When burned (take one / several strands of yarn) will be ash, and the course of fire is slow.

2. Viscose

Viscose material is smooth and soft when in squeeze and wrinkle-resistant, the material properties fall.
When burned to ashes and the flames slowly.

3.Polyester

Slippery grip, although for certain polyester yarn has a soft grip (will be discussed in more detail in the next article),
And when burned into charcoal / like plastic burning, course of rapid fire.

4.TR and TC

Have a handle halfway between polyester and cotoon / Rayon
When burned will produce ash and charcoal, though for more detailed testing should be with certain chemicals.
