Resorts World Sentosa in Singapore has partnered with LIV Golf, the controversial world tour of professional golf funded by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF). The sovereign wealth fund is one of the richest in the world with assets estimated at 620 billion dollars.

The 2023 LIV golf season kicked off last month in Mexico with LIV Golf Mayakoba. The tour will then stop in Tucson, Az., from March 17-19.

LIV Golf Singapore will take place from April 28-30 at the Serapong course at Sentosa Golf Club. Resorts World Singapore, one of the world’s largest integrated resort destinations, which features a 160,000 square foot casino with over 2,400 slot machines and 500 table games, will be the title sponsor of LIV Golf Singapore.

We are bringing LIV Golf to Singapore because it is part of our DNA to deliver new, high-end experiences to our wide range of visitors. Many of our premium visitors are also golf enthusiasts and they will like this event,” commented Tan Hee Teck, CEO of RW Sentosa.

World Golf Hall of Fame member Greg Norman, CEO and Commissioner of LIV Golf, said the golf tournament will bring some of the best golfers in the world to Singapore, a “market deserving of the best competitive and entertainment experiences. events. of our sport”.

Resorts World Sentosa shares a casino gaming duopoly in Singapore with Marina Bay Sands, which is owned and operated by Las Vegas Sands.

Moderate controversy

LIV Golf has been chastised on the world political stage for acting as a front for the Saudi government to improve its public image through “sportswashing”. In the United States, many residents, journalists and PGA Tour players continue to hold negative views of Saudis due to the country’s alleged links to the financing of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Despite the controversy, LIV Golf’s huge login bonuses and $25 million tournament purses have successfully poached many of the PGA Tour’s top players. Notable golf superstars who have jumped for LIV include Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka.

Tan, who was elevated to CEO in May 2022, said Resorts World’s sponsorship of LIV Golf Singapore is part of the casino’s ongoing commitment to bringing world-class entertainment and attractions to the city-state. . .

Trump’s involvement

Former President Donald Trump is a huge fan of LIV Golf and lends several of his golf courses to the tour. The 2023 LIV Golf League consists of 14 tournaments, and three of them are scheduled for lessons with Trump on their behalf.

LIV Golf Washington, DC, scheduled for May 26-28, will be played at Trump National Golf Club outside the nation’s capital in Sterling, Virginia. LIV Golf Bedminster, scheduled for August 11-13, will be played at Trump National Golf Club in New Jersey. And from October 20-22, LIV Golf Miami will be played at Trump National Doral.

Trump said last fall that LIV Golf was backed by “good people with unlimited money.”

New York Impact

Genting is pursuing a large-scale downstate casino license for RW New York City. The Queens Casino near JFK International Airport is currently limited to video lottery terminals and electronic table games. A full-scale casino license would allow the property to bring Las Vegas-style slots, live dealer table games, and sports betting to the property.

Along with MGM Resorts’ Empire City Casino in Yonkers, Resorts World is considered a leader in one of three downstate casino licenses.

Restart the presses! Nunatsiaq News is back in print!

After almost three years of interruption, the print edition of this newspaper returns this week.

We temporarily ceased publishing the print edition in March 2020, shortly after the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This upside down period is best summed up by the word “pivot”.

Businesses, governments, community organizations and individuals have been forced to change what they do and how they do it.

Nunatsiaq News received a triple whammy. The print shop we used reduced production and eventually closed during the pandemic.

It became more difficult and more expensive to ship newspapers as Canadian North reduced flights and shipped only essential goods.

And the newspaper’s distribution in the North became unpredictable as everyone was encouraged to stay home and practice social distancing to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus.

Hopefully it all fades from the history books now. Life in the North and across Canada is starting to look more like it did before the pandemic.

That’s why it’s time to bring back the print edition of Nunatsiaq News.

It is a happy coincidence that we are able to reach this milestone as the newspaper begins to celebrate its 50^e birthday in February.

So much has changed since 2020. Like everyone else, we’ve learned a lot about how to do things differently.

It is clear that readers have chosen to put their news online. The news industry was heading in this direction before COVID-19, but the pandemic has accelerated and deepened this shift.

Readers have shown a preference for information delivered instantly, and our ability to do so has refined as we have invested in our website and email distribution.

Our website – which was updated approximately eight months into the pandemic – continues to be where readers in Nunavut, Nunavik and southern Canada turn for the latest information on the North. . . We are proud to say that it won the Best Website category at the Quebec Community Newspaper Association’s annual awards for 2020 and 2021.

Social media, in particular Facebook, is the medium by which more and more of our readers consult Nunatsiaq News.

And the number of people who subscribe to our free e-edition and receive a PDF version of the document delivered to their inbox every Friday morning continues to grow.

But there are still plenty of readers who love the tradition of an ink-on-paper journal…perhaps with a cup of coffee in hand, as an indulgence during their busy days.

Thus, our print edition returns as a tool used by Nunatsiaq News to keep its readers informed and entertained.

It will be slightly different than it was before the pandemic. Instead of newsprint, it will be printed on bond paper and it will be slightly smaller than the old tabloid look from three years ago.

The distribution will also be a little different, with newspapers appearing in Iqaluit, Rankin Inlet, Cambridge Bay, Pangnirtung, Kuujjuaq and Ottawa…to start.

Readers told us they missed the print edition after going on hiatus in 2020.

We think the return of the print edition this week will make you feel like you’re reconnecting with an old friend you haven’t seen in a while. You realize how much you missed them. You realize they have changed, and you have changed.

But despite all the time that has passed, you are happy to see them again.

She also completed Safe Space training with the LGBTQ+ Resource Center, volunteered for the after-school youth program at Rocksprings in Athens, and served as a resident assistant for two years in the Reed community.

She lives in Miami with her husband, Corey, her son, Gabriel, and her dog, Bella.

The following are excerpts from an interview with Bruce-White that have been edited for clarity and length:

What experience during your time at Grady College had the biggest influence on your current situation?

Studying at Grady College was one of the best experiences of my life. I remember the day I learned that I had been admitted to school. It was a day filled with joy and appreciation for the hard work I had put in after struggling to adjust to college and university life during my freshman year. When I was admitted to school, I felt like I was finally in a good rhythm.

I was fortunate to learn from two amazing teachers who became my mentors after graduating from Grady College. They are the late Conrad Fink and Valerie Boyd. Without them, I don’t think I would have continued to pursue a career in advocacy communications. In early 2011, Professor Fink told me (after being late to another of his classes) that I was a “howler” and that my best writing happened when I wrote about things that bored me. Well, he was right. I have spent much of my career in the movement on behalf of historically marginalized communities, and in particular black and brown people. I’ve written about everything from voter suppression to paid sick leave and access to abortion. I have never forgotten what he said, and it drives me to keep writing and organizing on social and economic issues in pursuit of equity and justice.

Professor Boyd was another professor at Grady College who meant the world to me. She was the first black teacher I had at Grady College, and that performance meant so much to me. She helped me learn to focus my writing to become clearer and more persuasive. Professor Boyd really wanted to help his students succeed, and thanks to her, I was able to connect with other writers in Atlanta and work with them as they launched their own online journals and magazines. I finally started my own online blog with two friends in 2016. Professor Boyd taught me a lot and I owe a lot of my success to him. She had a profound impact on me, and I honor her life and her friendship through my work.

What brought you to your current career path?

At the end of my freshman year at UGA in 2010, I was fortunate enough to be chosen for an internship with the Sadie Nash Leadership Project, whose mission is to empower, empower and equip young women of gender and young people of color as agents. for a change in their lives and in the world. Operating at the intersection of love and rigor, the Sadie Nash Leadership Project uses popular education to build community, critical awareness, and college and career readiness among participants. This experience changed the trajectory of my career and I have never looked back. I have used my journalism training to propel me into a career of advocacy communication, movement building and organizing to disrupt systems of power and oppression that harm historically marginalized communities. My work now is not so much a career path as a life calling for the spirit of good and evil to push our country to change.

What advice do you follow?

Two pieces of advice I respect are #1: Believe it can change and #2: Love at the center. The struggle for liberation is omnipresent and the work of dismantling systems of oppression and evil is urgent. It is easy and understandable to view these challenges as insurmountable. But I rely on my ancestors, I learn from my elders, and I am inspired by so many people who do this work every day. They make me believe that can change, and I live by that advice. Also, I remember someone at a conference once telling me that with love at the center, the change we seek is possible. It upset me and made me think differently about how I approach this work for justice. With love at the center, I believe we can and will make our country a place where everyone can live in dignity and thrive.

What advice would you give to young students of color who will soon enter the workforce?

There are so many little nuggets of wisdom I’ve learned from other great leaders I’ve met that I think would be helpful for students of color entering the workforce. The first would be to find a mentor. Look for people who do the work you want to do, befriend them, and learn from them.

The second would be to stand up for what you know is right. We all have a moral obligation to do the right thing, and it’s not just societal, but it should be part of your daily practice. Just because something is part of the company culture doesn’t mean it’s the right thing. It could also mean encouraging your company to expand its policies to meet the needs of workers now. I urge young students of color to challenge policies that are not mission-aligned or EDIB-centric (equity, diversity, inclusion or belonging) and urge organizational leaders to effect change. Whether it’s speaking out about bad workplace behavior or urging your company to extend paid family leave or mental health days. Be brave for what you know is right.

The third would be to look for opportunities to help you develop your expertise and skills. Approach life with curiosity! There are so many free workshops and seminars available to us. There are also opportunities that cater specifically to students of color in a variety of different fields. Never stop learning or trying to grow and expand your expertise. Also, join professional groups or spaces that concentrate people of color.

Finally, impostor syndrome is a very real problem for many people, but especially for women of color. For example, women of color who suffer from impostor syndrome will often not apply for a job for which they are qualified if they feel they do not meet all of the criteria listed in a job description. News flash: No one has all the skills listed in a job description! Remember that you are powerful and you can learn new skills. Apply for this job or other new opportunities. And, if you need help coping with impostor syndrome, talk to a medical professional or life coach. They can help you gain confidence and learn how to deal with feelings of impostor syndrome, especially when it comes to work.

What does Black History Month mean to you?

Black History Month is a time for us to reflect on the contributions, culture, and lived experiences of Black people in America. It is a way for us to honor our ancestors and elders, to teach our children about the struggles we have faced and still face for fairness and justice, and to envision a future where black people are safe, valued, seen, believed, can thrive and live here peacefully and with dignity. In addition to Black History Month, I celebrate Black Future Month, which is a forward-looking vision of what black freedom can look like. This month is a time of reflection and celebration. It is a time of work, rest, joy and resistance. As we live in a time when Black History education is under threat from state governments across the country, this month means everything to me. As a new mom, this month has given me a new opportunity to teach my son the power of his community and the beauty of his culture. It’s powerful. This month is a space to celebrate our history and imagine a world where all black people are free.
