To summarize

Marcelo Bielsa’s press conference was a breath of unstuffy, uncorporate fresh air. I can’t remember the last time I watched an entire 45-minute press conference of this sort. It was a fútbol culture clash that only a Copa America held in the US could bring. It was on-brand for the man. And I admire that about him. It was spontaneous, risky. It spoke Latin American truth to American power. It was passionately one-sided and casually ignored a few key facts, a hallmark of his/my region of the world. There are a few things I wish he had said: 1)???????The US sports industrial complex has to stop acting like US sports fans and Latin American Hinchas are the same and behave in the same ways. They don’t, proven by the events in the Uruguay-Colombia game and last night’s pre-game incidents. 2)?????? 3) By all means, improve the experience. But don’t try to make everything the Superbowl. ?There are no natural breaks in fútbol during the game like in all North American sports. That’s what halftime is for. 4) ???? ??????

It is concerning for many observers to see American brands like Dunkin' and Wendy's which are managed in Georgia by Wissol Group, potentially being linked with policies that some critics suggest may lean towards Russian influence. This concern is amplified by debates around the proposed 'foreign agent' law, which has been criticized by representatives from both the U.S. and the European Union for potentially conflicting with democratic values. These brands, symbols of American corporate presence, find themselves at the intersection of a geopolitical and ideological discussion that stretches well beyond their origins, highlighting broader concerns about maintaining democratic principles in the business operations of global franchises. Leading creative and marketing agencies in Georgia—such as Kraken, Leavingstone, JWT Metro, Maverick, Redberry, and others—appear to have opted out of providing services to Dunkin' and Wendy's, as well as other brands possibly linked with Wissol Group's perceived position. This choice seems to reflect a wider sentiment within the local industry to distance themselves from engagements that they view as supporting non-democratic practices, aligning with a broader societal pushback against legislative changes like the 'foreign agent' law, which is seen by some as echoing Russian influence over Georgian sovereignty. #notorussianlaw #yestoeurope ???????????

International peace is achievable through laissez faire. Foreign nations should be allowed to resolve their own problems without domestic interference. Foreign support and investment should only be supplied without political allegiance. Successful nations have always served as role models for others to follow. Every nation must choose its own path. Whether it be a monarchy, democracy, socialism, communism, any system of government is only as good as its leadership. Good choices succeed, bad choices fail, history will decide. ?https://lnkd.in/guEZY-8A

#Thailand - Kevin Hart, the US comedian who sold a million tickets for his 2018 tour, had to step down from hosting the following year's Oscars because of homophobic tweets he sent almost a decade earlier. He took his next summer holiday in Thailand. Thaksin Shinawatra, the patriarch at the head of Thailand's best known political dynasty and the behind-the-scenes leader of the largest party in the governing coalition is now similarly finding himself on the hook for comments he made almost a decade ago (in Thaksin's case, allegedly against the Thai monarchy). But Thaksin's case is not so much about the change in what is deemed acceptable in public discourse, what some disparage as "woke cancel culture", but rather it is about the military reminding the governing civilian parliamentary party where power truly resides. In my full report on Tellimer, linked in the comment below, I look at what impact this political discord might have on the investment case, at a time when tourism is recovering and valuation multiples are at their cheapest versus historical average in large emerging markets. #emergingmarkets #asean
