The Dalai Lama has sparked anger after declaring that “Europe belongs to the Europeans”.

The Tibetan Buddhist spiritual leader also said that refugees should return to their native countries and assist with developing them. 

The 14th Dalai Lama was speaking at a conference in Malmo, Sweden which is home to a large immigrant population, according to the Business Times. 

 

“Receive them, help them, educate them ... but ultimately they should develop their own country,” the 83-year-old said, when speaking about refugees.

Manon, 17, has a Facebook account, but to connect with her friends she turns to other social networks such as Instagram and Snapchat.

“I don’t use it to post status updates or personal information,” the San Francisco teen said.

Manon maintains her Facebook account to be able to stay in touch with the large number of users on the huge social network and as a “gateway” to log into other apps.

“But to communicate with my friends, it’s Snapchat,” the high schooler said. “Everyone says Facebook is out of date. I think it’s because all the parents are on Facebook.”

As Facebook has grown into a network of more than 2 billion people globally it has lost its luster for younger users who made up a core base.

Questions:

1. Do you agree on the use of this kind of surveillence system? Why and why not?

2. Do you think diplomacy is important (recently we broke diplamatic relationship with 2 countries)? How could we do to make friends in the world?

Dear SP English club friends:

The upcoming Taipei mayoral election is drawing near in 6 months. For this meeting we would

like to positively and constructively discuss our thoughts and opinions about past and current elections 

in Taiwan. Of course we're not experts and our knowledge is not necessarily deep and precise. So, we need 

to recruit new blood and inspiration into our English club to brainstorm.
