Donald Trump outlines policy plan for first 100 days
Washington (CNN)President-elect Donald Trump unveiled plans Monday for his first 100 days in office, including proposals related to immigration, trade deals and defense policy, using a video published online to briefly outline his proposals.
Trump promised to withdraw from negotiations on the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, cancel environmental restrictions put in place by President Barack Obama, ask his national security team to buttress against infrastructure attacks, have the Labor Department investigate federal worker visas and impose broad new bans on lobbying by government employees.
The six items Trump detailed Monday are all somewhat easy lifts inside Washington -- because they can be done with a simple signature by Trump and do not require congressional approval.

Brexit slashes U.K. household wealth by $1.5 trillion
http://money.cnn.com/2016/11/21/news/brexi...alth/index.html

Malaysia is noted to have the highest household-debt-to-GDP ratio in Asia. Household savings, which is a major component of financial resilience, on the other hand, is low.
The country’s household-debt-to-GDP ratio rose to 89.1% last year, from 87.4% in 2014. It remains significantly higher than that of Indonesia at 17% and Singapore at around 60%.
As it is, many are living from hand to mouth, with their ‘heads just above the water’, they will be in crisis if the economy slows down further and this can cause major social problems for the country,” he says, noting that the potential social instability will depend on how long and deep the slowdown will last.
