I love China - an ex Taiwanese 我爱中国, 我是中国人

 

 

30 min interview of a Canadian Chinese/Taiwanese and his personal view of the rise of China and world affair. He was from Taipei, moved to Shanghai and eventually settled down in Canada with his wife and 4 daughters. His views are those of a family man, a Christian and a Chinese. He loves China and wishes China to become the number one prosperous and strong country which would benefit the whole world. 

He is widely travelled and his wisdom came from his own experience and his beliefs. He as seen the decline of America, the rise of China and, the trust the Arab and Muslim states have in China to bring peace to the world. An honest view from a family man without the biases and influence of politics.

There is a specie of creatures in Singapore that have no race and no ancestors. They look every inch like Chinese but did not think they are Chinese. They are offended if they are called Chinese or related to Chinese. They did not know what race they belong to. They did not know who were their grandparents or great grandparents etc etc, believing that they did not exist. The best local description of such creatures is orang cina bukan cina.

PS. The interview was conducted in Mandarin, with no English subtitles.

May 4, 2024 MONTREAL 崇哥,60后,客家人,出生在台北。他是为数不多的,愿意在镜头前谈两岸关系的人。他说在台湾,80%出生在1950-1970年代的人,会认为自己是中国人。一次乘坐出租车的遭遇,让他下定决心离开台湾。谁也没想到的是,他移民的地点,是中国大陆。四个孩子都在大陆接受了小学教育,学习的是热爱祖国,热爱人民,热爱中国共产党。 如今移民加拿大蒙特利尔的他,面对镜头说:两岸统一迫在眉睫,我永远都是中国人,我以自己是中国人而感到无比自豪!

Shangri La Dialogue - China poking the eyes of the American Terrorists

 The speech by Admiral Dong Jun, China's Defence Minister, was about as forceful and direct as it could ever get in the face of the Americans. There was no mincing of words, no pretences or nuances, or avoiding directness. This is the first time that China stood up firmly, told the Americans squarely in the face, get out of the region, stop your mischief and warmongering, and that China would take the Americans blow by blow.

For China to take such a stand, it is a confirmation that China is now ready in every field, to take on the Americans and would not flinch any more. China's confidence did not come about from bluffing or lying or bragging. China has been preparing for this moment over a century, to be as strong as possible in military power to defend itself against the combined forces of the white savages, including Japan if it dares to join the white savages like the invasion of China in 1898 under the so called League of Nations. 

China never forget and conscientiously work towards this formidable task of being able to fend off all foreign forces daring to mount an invasion on Chinese soil. The content of Dong's speech is loud and clear, concise and pointed, China would no longer tolerate American treachery and aggression and will take the bull by the horns. Come what may, China would not side step or take a punch without hitting back. It is also China's message to the Mickey Mouse not to be foolish or face the consequences.

Dong also made several proposals in his concluding speech like standing up to hegemony and warmongers, standing up to defend the smaller nations of the Global South from American bullying. This is huge. To stand up and defend the smaller nations from the big American bully is as good as throwing a gauntlet into the ring. The Americans have been warned that any attempt to repeat a bombing of a Chinese Embassy would be met with the same reply.

Dong was also direct to tell the Americans to buzz off from the region and stop inciting wars and creating instability. He referred to the placing of mid range missiles in the Philippines island as a hostile act, implying that if this is not removed, China would do the same, in the Caribbean or Latin America. Both can play the same game.

American aggression and warmongering, threatening nuclear war, use of nuclear weapons, were slammed by Dong as American treachery, mischievous and irresponsible behaviour. American duplicity in the One China Policy were also taken to task. Dong made this very clear, even during the question and answer session, that Taiwan was an internal issue of China. Any trouble maker, like Japan, were told to shut up and stay out of Taiwan. This is a sign that China is ready to reunite Taiwan very soon, and by force if necessary.

China would not be polite and evasive when under attacks by the Americans anymore. Bring it on. China is ready to stand up not only for itself, but for all the smaller nation states against American hegemony and bullying. A new and confident China is standing up to the world's number terrorist state. All the little Mickey Mouse states better take note of this. China now means business. Enough is enough!

When the dollar is no longer accepted...oops, dollar is safe haven!

 The dollar is still flying high and in demand for trade and as a hedge against inflation outside the BRICS world. Many nation states and big banks are still holding on to dollars, buying American bonds and treasuries to protect themselves...but in decreasing amount. Dollar holding for big banks as a safe bet has decline from 75% to 58%. It is good for the moment, when the dollar is still being accepted for trade and business, when they can use the dollar to buy American goods and also goods from other countries.

What would happen to the dollar when it is no longer accepted for trade and business? BRICS and the Global South are de dollarising, ditching the dollar. Every day, more and more countries are trading with their own countries instead of the dollar. The need and importance of the dollar will diminish with time. Eventually, a day will come, when countries would not want to accept the dollar, when there is no demand for the dollar, when no one would want to buy American goods that are expensive and no better than other alternatives?

The Americans are still furiously printing the dollar, and the American debt is ballooning to over $35 trillion. The supply and demand equation will come into play and the value of the dollar must depreciate and even becomes worthless. This is the same reasoning as the prices of HDB flats. When the time comes, when the lease expires, its values must be zero. When there is an abundance of dollars, when the BRICS and the Global South no longer need the dollar, its fate will be sealed.

The day when the dollar would turn into banana currency or monopoly money is approaching and would be a reality. It is an unavoidable and inevitable nightmare waiting to happen. The dumping of the dollar is progressing with increasing intensity by the day. Run for safety while you can.

America's free ride on the rest of the world, exchanging toilet papers for real goods and services, must come to an end. The people of the world are not that stupid, and will not be stupid forever.

PS. The recent surge of the dollar is like injecting it with steroids. The Americans are manipulating its rise, forcing its allies and cronies to buy the dollar, to buy treasuries and bonds. This is like a flash in the pan. It cannot last when its value is based on fake demands. It is like the last burst before it collapses, like surging stock market to a new peak before a plunge. 1930s Depression is the next big event.

The avalanche of de dollarisation has started crashing down.

Choosing between Trump and Biden is the epitome of American Democrazy

 China must not be foolish to expect any difference in USA foreign policies between the Republicans and Democrats, whoever sits in the White House. It is now an all-out anti-China and Russia setup by the real powers behind the throne. It was originally constructed to tout the superiority of democracy over socialism, which has now become an obsolete and untenable argument.

USA foreign policies have now been all purely about countering Russia and China. Both parties contending for power in the USA are just a choice between the right hand and the left hand, and their thinking will remain identical, however good a show they are trying to put up. It is up to the voters to say enough is enough. This will never come about and we can be sure. Stupidity cannot be cured, right?

This game of musical chairs built for perpetual rule by two parties have been working to perfection, that has long been built into their DNA and no one can change that. And no one will be able to change that, knowing that the same kind of evils are lurking inside Congress, as well as the swamp that can never be drained, all having the same evil designs. Any younger leader aspiring to assume leadership, with a different mindset, will be beaten down by the powers that be. Their use of the propaganda machine is as powerful internally as well as externally. No one can fight that. Just take Trump as an example, now beaten to a pulp.

Therefore, China has little to gain choosing between Biden and Trump going into the White House. China must just follow its own course, built up its military power, lift more people out of poverty and give them a better life, continue to use the same mindset adopted at home to help poor countries out of poverty and assist them to progress, and above all continue to innovate to counter the West out to destroy it. No one can argue against that or complain against that. Only the corrupted West will do that to preserve their superiority complex that is eroding.

Austin lying about Ukraine

 Putin has achieved nothing in Ukraine, so says the brain-dead USA Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin.

He obviously never looks at the map of Ukraine today and how much territory Russia has gained so far into the war. The whole Eastern flank, the Donbass region, are all under Russian control. Those are the most industrialized zones in Ukraine and the richest food producing region as well. That is nothing achieved by Putin? Who is Austin trying to delude?

Contrast the achievements of the USA and NATO two years into the war. What have they achieved despite all the aid and weapons given to Ukraine? What have they to show in terms of territory taken back from Russia? Not an inch to show! And Biden gloated about turning the Ruble into rubble and Russia going down on its knees. Another 'theory of victory' turned to dust.

The only achievement, if I can call it achievement at the expense of allies, is the USA and NATO being given an opportunity to get rid of obsolete weapons, and the USA Military Industrial Complex being given the chance to make hay while the sun shines, selling new weapons to NATO.

And Austin thinks he can lie and get away with it? He has to do better than that. His ignorance is truly astounding. He has taken the 'theory of a Ukrainian victory' to a whole new level.

And with all the clowns attending the Shangri-la Dialogue, who needs to go to a circus? Not even when it is an expensive circus to put up.
