North Korea’s women’s national football team made a spectacular start to their 2026 Asian Games campaign, thrashing Bangladesh 10–0 in their opening Group F match on Monday, September 14, at Nagai Stadium in Osaka, Japan. North Korea raced to a stunning 7–0 lead by half-time before adding three more goals after the break. Chae Un-yong, Jon Ryong-jong and Kim Kyong-yong each scored twice, while Bangladesh failed to register a single shot during the match.

North Korea, currently ranked 11th in the FIFA women’s rankings, are among the favourites for the Asian Games gold medal. They next face Myanmar on September 17, followed by a highly anticipated Group F clash with South Korea on September 21.

STOP KILLING YOURSELVES WITH FAKE FOOD, JAMAICA!
You have become the dumping ground of preventable diseases.

Jamaica’s healthcare system is under enormous pressure from chronic illnesses such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease and obesity—many of which are linked to preventable lifestyle risk factors.

At the same time, fast-food restaurants and highly processed foods have become increasingly embedded in our communities, while healthier choices are often less convenient or more expensive.

We cannot keep building hospitals and expanding clinics without confronting what is helping to fill them.

This is not simply a healthcare issue—it is also a food, lifestyle and public education issue. Jamaica needs a serious national conversation about what we eat, what we feed our children, physical activity, and how easily unhealthy food has become part of everyday life.

The question is: are we treating the disease while ignoring what is helping to cause it? 🇯🇲

Leaders from Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are set to meet in Cardiff in a major coordinated push for the right to determine their nations’ constitutional futures through referendums.

The summit comes amid growing debate over independence, Irish reunification and whether Westminster — or the individual nations themselves — should ultimately decide the future of the United Kingdom.

Rain or Shine: Dwight Crawford Gets the Work Done 🇯🇲

Dwight Crawford, Deputy Mayor of Montego Bay and Councillor for St. James West Central, has been gaining popularity for something simple but striking — being out on the ground working in the rain.

In Claridge Hall, Crawford was seen alongside work crews and heavy equipment as drainage channels were cleared and shaped and road improvement works continued despite the wet weather. Much of the work required to improve communities happens behind the scenes, but Crawford’s hands-on approach has caught the public’s attention.

With the Jamaican Government working harder than ever for the people, the focus remains on getting projects completed, improving infrastructure and making a meaningful difference in the lives of residents — rain or shine. 🇯🇲

JAMAICAN POLITICS ACTIVE! 😂

A complaint about bad roads took a spicy turn after MP Rhoda Moy Crawford replied,
“My dear, that is a parish council road,” pointing responsibility to the mayor and councillor.

The constituent’s response? “Information noted, can’t wait for LG elections to get rid of them.” 😳🔥

From Ropes and Three-Hour Treks to a 30-Minute Journey to School.

Children living deep in the mountains of China’s Yunnan province once faced an extraordinary journey just to attend school, navigating steep canyon paths and, in some areas, relying on ropes and rudimentary climbing routes to negotiate the dangerous terrain.

Today, massive cliffside lifts, cable transport and shuttle services have transformed that journey, cutting a commute that could take more than three hours to around 30 minutes.

MAJOR DEVELOPMENT ON STREAM FOR CORNWALL REGIONAL HOSPITAL!

Montego Bay Mayor Richard Vernon says progress continues at the Cornwall Regional Hospital as the facility moves closer to reopening another section.

Vernon recently joined the St. James Ministers’ Fraternal on a guided tour of the hospital, giving members a firsthand look at the work completed and the progress being made.

The mayor emphasized that transparency builds trust and that stakeholders must remain informed and included throughout the process.

Each completed section represents another important step toward restoring and expanding the quality healthcare services that western Jamaica deserves.
