☆ Why Australia keeps an arm’s length from South China Sea tensions, even as it draws closer with the Philippines
  + stars: | 2024-03-04 | by ( Kathleen Magramo | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
CNN —When Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. addressed the Australian Parliament last week there was no mistaking the fighting talk. The Philippines accused China's coast guard of setting up the barrier at the mouth of the disputed fishing ground. That meeting will also be attended by several other nations with territorial disagreements with China – including Vietnam, Brunei and Malaysia. Collin Koh, research fellow at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore, said Australia was unlikely to back any tough language at the summit pertaining to the South China Sea or any other hot-button issue. As Bisley put it, “We don’t like what China does, but we’re not going to put ourselves in harm’s way.”

☆ A marsupial in Australia will sacrifice sleep for sex, before dying and being eaten by its mate, say scientists
  + stars: | 2024-01-26 | by ( Marianne Guenot | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
During their three-week mating season, they sleep three hours a night less than usual. Females live just two years, while males die shortly after the breeding season. Still, for most animals, loss of sleep is a serious business. The effect of the loss of sleep doesn't reset in the morning but instead is compounded every night. "Three hours of sleep loss is not lethal in any animal we know of," Lesku said.

☆ These small male marsupials give up sleep for sex, then die after intense mating season, study finds
  + stars: | 2024-01-25 | by ( Hafsa Khalil | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
Scientists based in Australia have found that mouse-sized male antechinus trade sleep to leave more time for reproductive activities during mating season, with one male who was monitored halving his sleep time during that period. Non-breeding dusky antechinus spend an average of 15.3 hours of the day asleep, according to the researchers. “Sleep restriction in breeding male antechinus is likely to be an adaptive behavioral response driven by strong sexual selection,” the paper said. To study the semelparous marsupials, researchers examined two antechinus species: dusky antechinus (Antechinus swainsonii) and wild agile antechinus (Antechinus agilis) both captive and wild. Lesku said researchers would next like to examine how male antechinus deal with restricting their sleep for three weeks.

☆ What does Yevgeny Prigozhin’s presumed death mean for Vladimir Putin?

A woman visits a makeshift memorial near the former PMC Wagner Centre, associated with the founder of the Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, in Saint Petersburg, Russia August 24. "From the point of view of Putin, as well as many among the security forces and the military, Prigozhin's death should be a lesson to any potential followers." Putin, who has spoken in the past of his hatred of traitors, described it at the time as a "stab in the back". 'GAME OF THRONES'But the death of Prigozhin, if confirmed, is not without cost to Putin. If Putin was responsible for Prigozhin's death, he said, it demonstrated he was willing to engage in brutal repression of any kind of dissent.

Hun Manet, 45, needs to win a National Assembly seat to become prime minister, which he is expected to do in Sunday's general election. Analysts had expected the transition to come mid-term, giving time for Hun Manet to earn legitimacy with the public and political elite. "The reality is that as long as Hun Sen is around, nobody will move against Hun Manet." Hun Manet has given few media interviews and no clues over his vision for Cambodia and its 16 million people.

☆ Australia's Albanese wins industrial relations vote, tougher challenges ahead
  + stars: | 2022-12-02 | by ( Kirsty Needham | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
SYDNEY, Dec 2 (Reuters) - Australia's parliament passed legislation on Friday to reform industrial relations laws, boosting the ability of unions to negotiate with multiple employers and scrapping a construction industry watchdog. The Opposition Liberal party said it would lead to more strikes. "Businesses don't want the ideology," she said, referring to the traditional battlelines drawn between Labor, with its trade union power base, and the Liberal party, over industrial relations. The legislation passed the upper house with the support of the Greens, who said they won amendments from the government to improve parental leave that would benefit women. Legislation for a national Anti-Corruption Commission, a measure to re-establish public trust in politics, passed on Wednesday.
