USA wants to restart manufacturing with expensive and lazy American workers

 When clowns are running the show, most of the policies are going to backfire. Clowns do not think forward, only intent on keeping the audience entertained. They care not about what happens next.

First of all, sourcing of raw materials will be one big problem for the USA trying to bring back manufacturing. China now controls most of the essential raw materials and even the refining logistics. The USA is trying to put the cart before the horse by frantically building up the factories from scratch and then trying to source for the raw materials to operate. It will not work!

Next, we have to look at the skilled manpower needs which is in short supply in the USA. Training engineers takes time, and time is not what factories can stay idle and wait. TSMC, in setting up semiconductor manufacturing in Arizona had to recruit skilled engineers and technicians from Taiwan to work in the USA. Here, TSMC encountered another big problem. The work attitudes of USA locals and imported Taiwan workers contrast like day and night. Taiwanese work long hours in Taiwan and brought with them the same work attitude to the USA, but USA workers are basically lazy bums unable to follow the TSMC work routine. Another rouse that escalated was the differential in wages paid to USA locals and Taiwanese workers.

With the wage differentials in mind alone, can products made in the USA be able to compete in the global market? With the lack of raw materials in mind, trying to source for cheap raw materials is out of the question and with more expensive inputs, can the USA hope to compete on the global market?

China works on a different trajectory. China thinks long term what it wants to do and plan its move. China trained all the engineers and stem graduates that it will need for its manufacturing hub agenda decades ago. In tandem China also sourced for all the raw materials and secured them under joint ventures will friendly countries like in Africa also decades ago. China did not do all this yesterday. China had all these planned decades ago. That is why China was able to dominate global manufacturing so fast while the USA was still asleep in the believe that their days of domination will never end.

BRICS is FREEDOM.... from American oppression, threats, sanctions and bullying

 BRICS is not simply an economic blog of nations to cooperate and trade among themselves. The countries of the world have been under the oppression and control of the evil American Empire, being threatened and bullied by the American terrorists and unable to fight back, unable to break free from the stranglehold of the evil Americans in everything. 

The Americans see themselves as the Empire to rule the world. They are the law makers, making rules and laws for the world to obey and live by under the mischievous so called Rules Based Order, not the international law under the UN. The Americans called the shot, interfering and meddling the affairs of every country, telling countries what to do, who are enemies, who are their enemies, who they can or cannot trade with, who they should sanction and who they should go to war with.

Any country disobeying the American edicts would be taken to task, be sanctioned, isolated, invaded and their leaders killed. That is life under the evil American Empire. There is no freedom, no democracy under the American terrorists waving the flags of freedom and democracy. There is also no human rights. The American terrorists killed whoever they want, and rule the world using their military might.

BRICS is the alternative, the saviour of all nation states, to be free from American oppression. The countries no longer need to labour to produce goods and services to exchange for a piece of paper the American issued as money of exchange. The countries of the world no longer need to feed the American terrorists or be attacked or killed by the Americans.

BRICS is FREEDOM for countries of the world, to do what they like, to be friends and trade with whoever they like, to be free to use their own currencies for trade, no longer to be slaves of the American terrorists. BRICS is like living in a new world with new rules they made for themselves in their interests, not to be living under the oppressive American Rules Based Order, to be killed or kicked around by the Americans, threatened and bullied by the Americans.

BRICS is here to set the rest of the world free from the Americans terrorists!

Singapore can easily be taken over by foreigners with its loose diarrhoea immigration policy

 The Europeans took over North America, ie USA and Canada, by mass immigration of Europeans into the continent to replace the almost extinct native Americans genocided by the European invaders. The same thing happened in Australia and New Zealand with the white men now appearing as if they were the natives. The Americans, Canadian, Australians and New Zealanders were not natives to the lands they now occupied. They were invaders, murderers, robbers, plunderers, rapists etc etc but gave themselves ownership of the land they robbed from the natives. Anyone not knowing the history of these lands could easily be blindsided to think that USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand were the legal lands of the Europeans and they have every right to be there. They massacred the natives and took over their lands! They have no legal rights to be there!

The same formula is now being repeated and enacted in the Middle East. The white men forced the migration of European Jews into Palestine, giving them a small piece of the land. Then the whole story of occupation, genocide, ethnic cleansing began and now the Palestinians have lost most of their land, and the few surviving Palestinians are being trapped in hell in their homeland, either they died in the hands of the Americans or the Jews, or they died from hunger, starvation, thirst, sickness and diseases when all the basic necessities for survival are controlled and restricted by the Americans and the Jews. 

This is only the early phase in the occupation of Arab land. The whole of the Middle East is likely to end up like USA or Canada, or Australia and New Zealand when the natives would become a minority like the natives of North America, Australia and New Zealand. And after a few centuries, no one would know or remember what happened and be saying, the white men are nice guys, building up such fine countries.

The fate of Singaporeans losing out to foreigners would not be that dramatic or bloody. There is no need for an invasion of forced migration with our diarrhoea immigration policy. There is also no need for an army to defend the island. It would be done legally and no one would know when the foreigners have taken over the country and become the majority in the island. Oops, they are not foreigners, they are new Singaporeans, given citizenship by Singapore with the consent and blessing and approval of the daft Singaporeans. The transition and transformation would be clean, cool, systematic and absolutely peaceful and legal without anyone knowing what happened and when it happened.

American terrorists are setting up time bombs all over the world for wars

 Actually, not a word that USA politicians spout is not lies one way or another. And not a word of truth will ever come out of USA politician's mouth that they want to hide to promote their agenda.

Everyday USA politicians talk about not wanting to escalate the wars in Ukraine and Middle East, but they keep supplying weapons for them to fight. How on earth can there ever be any chance for peace to come about? This is encouraging the Ukrainians and Israelis to continue the fighting. How do they fight without the weapons that the USA supplied? Fighting with shovels like the Russians and still gaining territories?

Just look at the situation in the South China Sea. More and more weapons are slowly and discreetly being sent to the Philippines, encouraging them to confront and hyping up the threat from China. Across the Taiwan Straits, more and more weapons are supplied to Taiwan by hyping up the threat from China. On the Korean Peninsula more and more provocations are carried out with military exercises conducted close to the North.

All these are situations that the USA wants to keep cultivating as time bombs. In the event of a miscalculation, war could suddenly erupt, a situation which the USA is waiting to exploit.

But China is wise enough to see what the USA is planning to do in the South China Sea and keeping a close eye on Ukraine and Israel. China have just to control export of most of the essential raw materials for making weapons, without which the USA and NATO are crippled. Now, it appears that Ukraine is suffering a serious shortage of weapons from the USA, which of course will never be talked about. Why and for what reason is also not discussed as it is a security issue.

More sick jokes of American lies and terrorism

 Terrorism has taken on a new meaning, and the USA, Israel and the West will not call it terrorism. But it is terrorism clear and simple, that is killing innocent non-combatants indiscriminately, however they may want to spin it.

And if the Arabs and Muslims resort to using the same tactic, will they be branded as terrorist for certainty. Oh, by the way the USA administration is still investigating. I would say that they are using the timely delay to put together and working on an excuse like blaming a few men in a boat blowing up the Nord Stream pipelines.

The USA claimed to have the best intelligence agency working together with the British, and yet they claimed to have no inkling about this happening, which is a tad unbelievable. But their intelligence was so good that they could produce evidence of Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq, produced the material evidence at the UN, including a test-tube vial of biological weapon shown to all at the UN, which if dropped would have killed everyone inside the building.

To put it more comically and more laughable, they also had the audacity and decency to broadcast videos of trucks hauling pipes which were claimed to be for making WMD. That was a sick joke indeed, for the person being able to be at the right place and time to videotape the truck heading in his direction. And a milk powder factory was said to be making biological weapons and bombed to smithereens. Poor Iraqi babies suffered. But it is all collateral damage. Madeleine Albright even went on to say that sacrificing 500,000 Iraqi children was worth it. The Mother of all Monsters.
