    Interesting to see that 10 of the 30 are European states. No wonder Russia wasn't to happy about the US-Proposed Missile Defence Shield. (which will now not be built in Poland btw). Russia also wouldn't be happy about being ranked lower than China (and prbbly contest it) India's ranking could be seen as a surprise - at least compared to its media coverage in the west - and then of course Egypt is very interesting as well. These would help to explain the US's continued and long-standing commitment to these two countries especially.

Osaka Melbourne SisterCities

  • The sister city relationship with Osaka was the first that Melbourne established.
  • A strong and beneficial sister port relationship already existed (established in 1974) between the Port of Osaka and the Port of Melbourne.
  • However, the sister city relationship was not formally established until 24 April 1978 at a ceremony in Osaka attended by the Lord Mayor. The stated aim at the time was to establish 'a people-to-people relationship with the aim of developing mutual friendships and a lasting and understanding relationship'.

    It's not an official or new article but I actually just found out about this and thought this is pretty cool. They even have a logo of Melbourne and Osaka Sister Cities.

    it is a quite funny animation. Also, in an interesting way, it uses symbolic languages to represent the modern world, pop culture and globalization. In my point of view, there is a global war in which sushi represents Asia and hanburg and chips play as West. they fight with each other in order to prove which one is more dominant and powerful.
