When a road car accident happened, a negotiation and a settlement process occur between you, the other driver and the insurer of both parties. The result depends on whose fault may be the accident and other factors like the seriousness of the damage and injury.
Whether its the other driver’s fault or your own, a negotiation is still part of the settlement process you have to undergo. Most of the insurance companies have a skilled negotiator therefore you need to prepare your settlement demand before doing anything. Be sure to base it on objective facts if you want to win the situation.

This is more technical for analyst and reporters: On Friday the Census Bureau will release the Q2 Housing Vacancies and Homeownership. This report is frequently mentioned by analysts and the media to track the homeownership rate, and the homeowner and rental vacancy rates. Unfortunately the report is based on a fairly small sample, and does not track the decennial Census data.
Economist Tom Lawler has pointed out the discrepancies in the homeownership rate before, and he points out that the vacancy rates are “silly” too.
From economist Tom Lawler: HVS Rental Vacancy Rate Silliness: The Case of Richmond, Virginia
In early 2009 the Richmond, Virginia press wrote numerous articles after quarterly HVS data on metro area rental vacancy rates showed that the rental vacancy rate in the Richmond, Virginia metro area in the fourth quarter of 2008 was 23.7%, the highest in the country.

The Third World Chinese Economic Forum , themed “Linking East and West in a Globalised World,” which is jointly organized by the Asian Strategy & Leadership Institute and the Country Heights Group in Malaysia, will see a convergence of Chinese entrepreneurs and businessmen from across the globe.
To be held on Nov. 3 and Nov. 4, key confirmed speakers and attendees include Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak, Country Heights Holdings Bhd. founder Lee Kim Yew, IOI Group executive director Lee Yeow Chor and Banyan Tree Holdings co-founder Claire Chiang, among others.
ASLI chief executive officer Michael Yeoh said that he was expecting 600 to 800 participants, with a huge number from overseas.
“Last year, we had participation from 23 countries. We are expecting more this year. This year, we have some big names, for instance Ronnie Chan, who is the chairman of the Tungling Group, which is the largest real estate developer in Hong Kong by market capitalization. We also have Datuk Seri Tahir, who is executive chairman of Indonesia’s conglomerate, the Mayapada group,” said Yeoh.
Yeoh is expecting to see a large turnout of Chinese businessmen, who will not just share their insights on the Chinese economic world, but how they are connecting and uniting with the West for joint synergies.
“With many of the world’s entrepreneurs gathering here for this event, they will be able to better understand our strengths and resources, and thus help to accelerate the economic growth of Malaysia.
“They can participate in our Economic Transformation Plan, and we can tap into the strength of rapidly developing economies to further move up the value chain,” said Star Publications Bhd. chairman Fong Chan Onn. The Star newspaper of Malaysia is the official English media partner of the event.
Malaysian Transport Minister Kong Cho Ha said such an event was good for foreign players to come to Kuala Lumpur and see for themselves how affordable, diversified and livable the city was.
“When they see for themselves, then perhaps we can attract more foreign direct investments. Engagement with China is very important. The Chinese people have changed from past times. For example, when I was in China, I could see that they know how to queue up now. You will be surprised that the Chinese diaspora are now setting up communities in Africa, Peru, Brazil, Argentina, and many other unconventional places,” said Kong.
In his message in conjunction with the forum’s launch, Prime Minister Najib said that the World Chinese Economic Forum provided a useful platform for interchange of views and ideas as well as to forge business partnerships and linkages.
“At this year’s forum, we shall be also promoting the concept of a new economic corridor linking China through the 10 countries of Southeast Asia and India to the Middle East — a sort of a new Silk Road.”
“I believe this China-ASEAN-Middle East Corridor can be a growth region of a sustainable development, economic prosperity and dynamic trade and investment flows.
“This forum also enables foreign participants to be updated on the tremendous business and investment opportunities available under Malaysia’s 12 National Key Economic Areas as defined in our Economic Transformation Program,” said Najib.
