New world order is looming

Johannesburg - The Brexit fallout and the market protectionist posture taken by US President Donald Trump had opened the door for a new world economic order, with developing economies at most risk of capital flight, according to the UN World Economic Situation Prospects 2017 report , said Kirsten Thompson, the managing director of research and project management at Plus Economics, who presented the report on Tuesday.
The proposed changes by the new US administration and the uncertainties related to Brexit did not bode well for developing economies.
“These uncertainties may also trigger capital withdrawal from developing economies with open capital markets such as Mexico, South Africa and Turkey,” the report said.

The report also noted that policy proposals of the new US administration would slow economic growth and other countries might take retaliatory policy measures.
Thompson said the world might well be about to witness the end to globalisation and this might lead to “African protectionism”.
“We are now entering an unknown, untested era economically. There is no economic model for what I believe we will see in the next year or two in the global economy with the super powers completely alienating themselves. The globalisation cycle trend of the 1990s is ending,” Thompson said.
The UN report found that the South African economy was projected to grow by 1.3 percent this year and by 2 percent next year.
Ian Cruickshanks, the chief economist at the SA Institute of Race Relations, said the move by the new US president meant the US was likely to trade with countries that had declining business prospects.
“He is less interested in globalisation and this means there will be less trade benefits for countries such as South Africa. It is going to be difficult for African countries and the Brics group,” Cruickshanks said.
The UN expects Africa’s economy to grow by a moderate 3.2 percent this year and 3.8 percent in 2018, with East Africa expected to grow at 6percent in the next two years.
The anticipated growth on the continent was due to the expected upward trend in global oil and non-oil commodity prices.
However, global commodity prices were expected to remain well below the pre-2014 levels.
The world gross domestic product was forecast to expand by 2.7 percent this year and 2.9 percent in 2018, the report said. The UN attributed this sluggish growth to weak global investment, dwindling world trade growth and high levels of debt.
Thompson said investments in infrastructure growth levels and dwindling trade levels meant there would be stagnating economic growth for the foreseeable future.
“Unless we boost investment levels, we will not be able to grow above this stagnating growth rates. We currently have one of the lowest global trade levels in 30 years.”

The United Nations Just Officially Announced a Global Communist Takeover, The New World Order Reconvenes
A long-held conspiracy theory yet again gets proven true. The UN at the seventy-first regular session has aggregated the role of the United Nations in promoting a new global human order into their agenda. In addition to the aforementioned under section A.
According to Author Jeffrey Grupp the New World Order (NWO) is hard at work making all the economic decisions for the world's economies.
Corporatism The Secret Government Of The New World Order By Jeffrey Grupp ...
Monopolistic mega-corporations control all basic resources and items that world citizens depend on for daily survival-not just food, resource-goods, or medicine, but also things like water, information, transportation, education, and even consciousness. The corporations are controlled by tiny numbers of unelected, militaristic, fascistic labor-lords who are outside of media attention. They exercise such absolute power that they will do anything -including obliterate and destroy the spirit and consciousness of citizens worldwide (including children). This book is an existential, empirical, economic, and psychological study of how corporations dominate the globe to the point that humanity worldwide is reduced to little more than a crushed, defeated mob of uneducated, brainwashed, and tormented beings - who are often tricked into believing they are free, as is the case with middle and upper class Americans. The corporatists secretly control the governments and major control agencies of the world: the UN, CIA, WTO, WHO, FDA, universities, the Federal Reserve, the world's militaries, farming, mass media, and religions - and that is just a partial list. Corporatism: The Secret Government of the New World Order shows that this is the real underlying cause of all major human problems. Other issues that people imagine to be the root of humanity's problems (politicians, war, human nature, greed, religion, parents, schools, etc..), are just symptoms. In this book, Professor Grupp proves that the United States is a corporatist nation no different from the communist horror-states described in books such as Orwell's 1984. In the near future America may become a full-fledged prison nation that will ultimately merge into the corporatist global "prison planet" that Hitler was initially attempting to set up, and which is now called the New World Order.
America is a nation secretly controlled by large corporations and other background entities that terrorize the nation’s citizens in order to establish a fascist-like control. And sadly, the vast majority of Americans have no idea anything of the sort is going on, according to Jeffrey Grupp, author of Corporatism: The Secret Government of the New World Order.
The transformation from a free to a corporatist society actually began in 1870s and continued slowly into the 1970s. But since the 1970s the transformation picked up speed turning the United States into a communist nation—an Orwellian state with all the standard characteristics such as invisible and fabricated terror networks, mass brainwashing, staged war, mass poverty and, eventually, the migration of virtually all citizens into compact, dirty, disease-ridden cities that could more accurately be called labor or concentration camps. And the pace of the transformation really accelerated after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Grupp writes.
For Grupp, the idea of a corporation includes the normal idea of a corporation: General Electric, for example. But it also encompasses the mainstream media and organizations like the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Health Organization (WHO), North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), United Nations (UN) and a myriad of other alphabet soup organizations that he says work against the people and take on criminalistic and/or genocidal qualities.
He posits that there are actually two governments at work in the U.S. (and around the world for that matter). The visible government is comprised of the President, Senators, Representatives and Supreme Court Justices that you see in action on C-Span, various news channels or in Washington, D.C.
But then there is the invisible government that operates behind the scenes by pulling the strings and pushing the buttons of the visible government. Grupp also writes that many members of the visible government are a part of the invisible government as well.
Grupp knows there are many skeptics to his beliefs. But this book lays out step-by-step his argument of how the secret government controls not only the thoughts and actions of the visible government, but the thoughts and actions of the populace as well. He writes:
“Do you have trouble believing that such a secret corporatist government exists? Do you have trouble believing that it could be as well-coordinated, hidden,savage, and tight-lipped as I am describing it? Is it so hard for you to believe a secret corporatist government exists, that you are inclined to reject the idea as implausible? Well, if you are inclined to reject the idea, then you have forgotten that this sort of group has manifested all throughout history, with the same level of secrecy, savagery, and well-organized functioning. The Nazis are a perfect example, where Nazi media information, medicine, military, government, and so on, were all perfectly controlled and coordinated by a secretive corporatistic government which, it seems, most Germans were oblivious to. You don’t think this is going on here in the United States?”
And Grupp’s argument is that some of the same people involved in the Nazi regime are behind today’s corporatism (for example, George W. Bush’s grandfather, Prescott Bush, was a top Nazi and Hitler’s banker).
Grupp shows how the secret government uses the media and corporations to achieve its goals—that is pushing toward One World Government.
It does so by framing its message to push the people into believing that—as George Orwell stated in 1984—that war is peace and freedom is slavery and ignorance is strength.
He demonstrates the effects that false flag terror and war events have had in molding and shaping the minds of Americans in order to make it easier for the decision-makers to achieve their ends: wars, economic downturns, higher taxes, oppressive government and submission to the nanny state.
Grupp writes that al-Qaida and Osama bin Laden are tools used by the CIA and that the government was complicit in the 9/11 terror attacks and the President, his staff, Congress and the media covered up the facts in order to hide what really happened that day.
He also makes a case that the secret government is using vaccines, faulty medical data, poisonous medicines and dubious research in order to make Americans a docile people that submit to orders and follow instructions without question.
Finally, Grupp posits that the secret government is using chemicals, bioterrorism and nanotechnology to advance its agenda of population reduction and control of American citizens.
The book is well sourced and a fascinating, thought-provoking trip into the major conspiracy theories alive today. If you believe that people and governments are capable of pulling off evil acts to achieve their agendas—particularly in a move toward One World Government—this book will reinforce your beliefs. If you’re not prone to conspiracy theories and don’t think people and governments can be evil entities, then this book will at least give you pause.
