    You don't understand China, I live in Taiwan I know better than you

    China has problem but none they can't fix with their surplus of money.

    USA has problem that USA can not fix without civil war and collapse of the FED

    D you understand the difference :cool:

    Got to love how easily it is to brainwash Asians. In my opinion 80% of them are incredibly naive.

    And no, this isn't an anti-Asian comment, just stating a fact.

    What many don't understand is that being top man or top country - brings a lot of unwelcome obligations.

    Even if they build themselves upt to extra strong entities they are still largely dependent on others.

    If the oil producers had an embargo on the USA it would collapse rapidly. If countries refused to buy China's exports then the same result..

    Even the mighty have to tread warily

    Let's clear one thing up in this thread: China has never been an communist state. Everything you see and hear regarding China being communist is their marketing propaganda telling you they are communist. China has always been up to this point in time an oligarchial meritocracy.

    2nd point: there is the mainland Chinese, and then there's all the other Chinese. If you didn't know or understand these points although you are welcome to share your opinion, you probably aren't qualified to comment on the Chinese diaspora and as an extension of that, policy.

    And if you think all asians are the same, I invite you to take a trip to glasgow, go over to the east end and call a scottish guy english.

  6. China might never have been communist. Where was anything communist? They call it communism and they rule with an iron hand and do mass murder like nobody in all of history... then they try to sell us on their ascendancy to being the economic light of the world and in line to have the reserve currency!! The MSM carries on with that program because they are Marxists, they did the same thing with South Africa, it's now a crime ridden shithole...

    The West will sort the current mess out, realize that Socialism can never be properly funded, tell everybody to get off their lazy ass and get their own food, water, housing, medicine etc, to stfu and stop whining.. and bank some coin for their retirements while they are at it... and maybe people will even stop buying stuff made out of plastic just to keep China from ascending to Masters of the Material Plane or whatever it is they think they should be...

    An interesting point about China which few in the rest of the world know is that it is not really a natural 1 country. It was unified through hundreds of wars in the past.
    The languages spoken in China vary a lot. People from the Canton area speak a very different language from the people of Beijing or Shanghai or many other areas. While working there I noted that the people in the office all spoke English which they even spoke to each other if they came from different language areas. A bit like Europe with all their different languages. The Govt hasnow though forced everyone to also learn Mandarin as that's the official language.

    To the rest of us they all look very similiar, must be something of a problem if a descritpion of someone is needed ?

    I think it was horrible. I am really confused from the Chinese officer, because ther is uncontrolled situation with this smog. At the moment, noxious substances present really danger for people in Beijing. On the other hand, Shanghai is entirely clean city. I don´t understand it.

  10. hong kong is amazing. I was impressed by the energy there. Yes, at this point i think china is HK X 200.

    there is a reason germans call chinse yellow danger. They saw this long time ago.

    And nothing can stop it. Big white man, with lots of debt and personal issues is finished.

    However chinese are aware of that and do not want to be intrusive. They appreciate diversiry. And are aware of their ant like behaviour.
