Why America and the World are Betting Big on Private Space | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Pakistan has submitted another request for a bailout, seeking $6 billion from the IMF. While the IMF may grant it, the persistence of Western aid to Pakistan raises questions about their oversight of issues like rigged elections and the military's questionable activities. Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin made headlines by piloting a fighter jet and taking a swipe at Joe Biden. An AI chatbot's response to inquiries about Modi and Zelensky highlighted biases in its answers. Additionally, a new social media IPO, Reddit's impact, and a private company's moon landing commemorate the US achievement after 50 years. Notably, the world's elite are gathering in Gujarat's Jamnagar, while Indians in Russia are reportedly coerced into fighting in Ukraine. Elsewhere, Libya's armed groups leaving Tripoli, Japan offering digital nomad visas, and the concept of upcycled food are topics of interest. Turning to global affairs, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's proposal for post-war Gaza governance faces rejection from Palestinian officials. India, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives conduct a trilateral maritime security exercise, while Bangladesh participates as an observer. Senegal's presidential dialogue offer finds no takers, prompting protests amid concerns over election delays. Hungary strikes a fighter jet deal with Sweden amid the latter's NATO bid, and South Korea raises its public health alert due to doctors' resignations over proposed reforms. The report also delves into Pakistan's renewed IMF bailout request and questions surrounding its legitimacy, Western support, and implications for democracy. Additionally, Putin's recent actions, US-Russia tensions, and biases in AI technology are explored, highlighting the complex dynamics shaping global politics and technology.

Mental Health
You can't determine someone's emotions just by looking at them or by what they present online. Even though our lives might seem perfect from the outside, they often aren't. Personally, I'm constantly worried about performing well in school, especially with the upcoming year-end test. I'm not sure how much longer I can handle the pressure. My mind is frequently overwhelmed, keeping me awake at night. Some days, the burden feels too heavy, and I feel lost. When I did poorly on a test, I managed to hold myself together until I got home, but then I broke down in tears in front of my mom. She listened carefully and reminded me that just like physical health, we all have mental health, including our feelings, thoughts, emotions, and moods. Feeling sad, angry, or stressed is normal, just as feeling happy, confident, or carefree is. Positive and negative emotions are part of daily life, influenced by what's happening around us. Good mental health involves experiencing the full spectrum of emotions, not just constant happiness.
