Countries With Largest Gold Reserves. Philippines number one
What happened to the gold of our ancestors that has been transferred under the custody of Marcos Family?Philippine Islands are "Riches Country in the World!" There are 950,000 metric tons of gold ( declared missing in the International Court of Justice in Hague) picked up by Yamashita from its European Ally, Hitler and another 250,000 metric tons of the Japanese loot around Southeast Asia are both now in the Philippines. Very few Filipinos knows this( Wall Street Journal, November 15,1985 issue wrote: "Two Thirds of all the gold in the world is in Philippines and One third is divided among the rest of the countries of the world")
During A TALK SHOW in a U.S. TV , the week following the bombing of the New York Twin Towers, President George Bush was asked this question: Which is the richest country in the world today? With a smile he said; "The Philippines." In a US TV interview as well with President Barrack Obama, in his "700 Billion USD stimulus funds" for US economy, he was asked a question where will he get the billion dollar substantial funds needed and quoted saying. "We have friends outside US who will support us".
The branded Yamashita Treasure was considered "booty". There were varied country claimants who are victims of the said WWII loots and these countries filed protest and claims after the war in the International Court of Justice. Though, there was a passage of law for thirty years starting 1946, that without a valid claim against it this "booty" it would belong to its new possessor. That would have been in 1976. However, the International Criminal Court (ICC) extended the deadline of the claims to 10 years up to 1986.
With the conspiracy of the International Banking Cartel, neither the ICJ denied the existence of these gold and claims. Sadly, Successive governments of the Philippines denied its existence and failed to acknowledged the gold. For almost 24 years, Information has been conspired to keep from being known to Filipino people.

Trump Backs Off Powell Firing Threat, Signals Ongoing Fed Tension
President Donald Trump, who nominated Jerome Powell to lead the Federal Reserve in 2017, recently stated he has “no intention” of firing the central bank chair before his term ends in 2026. This marks a shift from Trump’s escalated rhetoric, where he hinted at the unprecedented step of ousting him over disagreements on interest rate policies. Trump’s push for lower rates to counter his tariff-driven economic agenda has clashed with Powell’s warnings of potential inflation and slower growth. Despite the de-escalation, which calmed markets, Trump’s continued pressure suggests the Fed’s independence remains under strain as he tests the limits of his influence.Trump’s frustration centers on the Fed’s refusal to cut interest rates, which he says hinders growth.
Powell, whose term lasts until May 2026, has stressed the Fed’s independence. Removing him would require proving misconduct, a legal challenge no president has won. The move could test the Fed’s autonomy.
