La educación, el gran desafío
La cacofonía politiquera está ya casi en su clímax final, lista para desfogarse en votos este 20 de agosto. Gane quien gane, en términos de prioridad para el desarrollo a largo plazo de nuestro país, el tema número 1 es la reforma educativa. Lamentable admitirlo, pero las reformas profundas que requiere la educación en Guatemala enfrentarán, como siempre ha pasado, una resistencia casi total tanto en su enfoque sistémico como por parte de…

La necesidad de una tregua
Romper esta dinámica le corresponde, en primer lugar, al presidente. Ello requiere coraje para ser persistente en mensajes difíciles pero necesarios, aunque pase por momentos de impopularidad. Hasta en las guerras se acuerdan treguas, un período de cese al fuego entre enemigos. Es urgente que gobierno y oposición acuerden una agenda por un tiempo , con buena voluntad, para resolver los temas pendientes.

Mysterious Form of Vision Loss May Brew Inside The Gut, Scientists Say

Glaucoma, classified as a group of neurodegenerative diseases,…

解放軍東海軍演的真實目的（呂禮詩）
副總統賴清德擔任總統特使，率團出訪巴拉圭，啟程前，浙江海事局突然發布航行警告，於出訪當日中午起至十四日下午止，在東海進行軍事演習。此次軍演是例行性或是針對性的起手式，其背後的真實目的，實有釐清之必要。 歷年解放軍在黃海、東海及南海進行規模大小不一的軍事演習，其航行警告概分為軍事演習、軍事訓練、實彈射擊及軍事射擊訓練等四種，然解放軍隱諱操演的實際內容，故難以透過文字敘述一窺堂奧，只能經由航行警告中的演練時間、地點與範圍，研判演訓的真實狀況。 從航行警告發布的內容看來，演習始於副總統動身前且橫跨週休假期，與二○二○年起的例行性演練樣態不同，看來針對性極強；若參照演習區域，位於舟山市以東一百二十一公里公海的七十海浬長、三十海浬寬所合圍的七二一五平方公里操演區，較二○二○年迄今的各年度操演區更為偏北，距離台灣最北端的富貴角尚有四百八十公里之遙，指稱為環台軍演的起手式，似過度推論。…
