Did you fly to Asia? If so you could be getting some cash back. China adds more partners to AIIB, something US may not be too keen about. And finally, North Korea again shows its hand with Kaesong.

Is Kaesong Proving to be a Bad Idea?
When will Seoul learn that doing business with North Korea at the Kaesong Industrial Complex brings nothing but headaches? It’s something that really makes you want to smack your head. Get the latest details on the current problem.
