Should individual countries interest supersede the goals and the interest of the whole world Reading Text: Politics of coronavirus: Taiwan, China and WHO The quote that I chose from the text is the tweet by the Taiwanese foreign affairs ministry twitter page. “@WHO, what’s wrong with you? First you called us “Taiwan, China,” then you changed to “Taipei.” You misreported the confirmed cases, & now you call us “Taipei & Environs.” Look! Taiwan is #Taiwan & not any part of the #PRC. JW” (Hale, 2020, p. par 4).The quote is important to me because it shows the growing conflict of interests between the World Health Organization and China (Hale, 2020). As such, it helped me generate a question due to the critical role of the WHO and Taiwan’s response to the Coronavirus crisis. The text by Eric Hale (2020) on the Aljazeera News website is a breakdown of the conflict of interest between WHO and China. This text lays bare the dilemma facing the world health organization. The institution tasked with protecting the world from infections must fight the challenge…

Food and Drug advertisements We come across advertisements as we listen to radio, watch television, or visits websites. Businesses invest in advertisements to communicate with target customers and persuade them to seek certain services or buy products. Advertisements are effective in influencing behaviors and decisions of people thereby achieving its objectives (Tang, 2018). There are several theories on advertising but most of them states that an effective advert should consider main practices such as repetitive advertising and exposure towards the brand. In other words, if the advertiser wants the consumers to like the product, then they should continuously expose consumers to adverts. By doing so, they develop certain feelings towards the product. Advertisements are so powerful such that consumer takes advert information as the absolute truth (Boyland, Kavanagh-Safran & Halford). Therefore, advertisers should tell the truth about their products to avoid misleading consumers. Unfortunately, there are cases where advertisers mislead customers. For example, in 1977, Nestle misled mothers from developing countries about their infant formulae leading to deaths of many children and spread of HIV (Sasson, 2016). Moreover, there…

Guatemala Historical Background The Maya civilization marks the beginning of Guatemala history. The modern Guatemala history is said to have started with the Guatemala Spanish Conquest of 1524. In 1523, a force of Spaniards was sent to the country under the leadership of Pedro de Alvarado. Due to the tremendous technological advancement that these Spaniards had, they took advantage of the indigenous people within a short period. By 1540, they had gained the overall ruling of the whole area. They then became the rulers of the country. Within the time of their ruling, conversion to Christianity and the growth of the church was exponential.
