The Epoch Times: Promise for Renters' Rights to Be on National Agenda
The Australian federal government has rejected a proposal from the Greens to introduce caps on rent increases, saying there is “overwhelming evidence” that they do not work. The Greens blocked a $10bn bill that would have created a Housing Australia Future Fund, which was intended to help establish 30,000 affordable and social housing properties within five years. The Greens withheld their support for the bill due to concerns about the lack of renters’ rights protections within it.

The federal government has been advised that it may be able to trigger a double dissolution election over the matter.

Spectator USA: Can the nomads of Kyrgyzstan survive?
Kyrgyzstan's capital, Bishkek, is ranked the second most polluted city in the world due to the heavy use of coal for central heating and air conditioning.
