China Cards - China Factories, China Market, China Finance, China Consumer Goods, China....

 A couple of decades ago when China was opening up to the war, everything was so attractive in China. Everything was cheap, cheap and cheap. And to make things more attractive, the Chinese govt was happy to cooperate, and there were abundance of land and low cost labour, disciplined and conscientious, to toil for whoever willing to set up production in China. All the first movers were smiling all the way to the banks. Where on earth can manufacturers find to plentiful of skilled labour that just worked and worked, and super efficient and at super low cost, without complaining. No labour problem, just pure exploitation by the capitalists. No one cared about slave labour or the rights and welfare of the workers, fair wages. Every investor was in for the ride.

Soon it was spreading around that to compete and succeed, one must have a factory in China to take full advantage of cheap labour cost and cheap in everything. This was the first China Card. And with increasing spending power of the workers, a Chinese middle class quickly took shape. Manufacturing in China is one part of the equation. The other even more attractive part is the growing consumer market in China. How to sell to 1.4b people that are increasing getting rich and wanting to consume, to buy everything to improve their lives? The Chinese market was the second China card to make money, plenty of money.

The rapid growth and changes in China was like a fiction scripted in Hollywood, a fantasy in the good sense. Everyone is happily making fortunes from China and with China becoming the factory of the world, selling good and affordable stuff to the whole world, and with great efficiency. In a way, many useful and valuable China Cards appeared for all to collect and benefit from the China fantasy. 

Chinese money became readily available to the world through Chinese banks, with interest rates that are cheaper than the IMF and World Bank. This is a boon to developing countries that needed cheap financing to uplift the life of their people through economic development. The China Finance Card was followed closely with China Infrastructure Card, with countries jumping on board the BRI high speed train. Te combination of Chinese Finance and Infrastructure technology have been a big boost and blessing to many countries in the Global South with many crying for more.

China did not disappoint. Now there are many must have China Cards... for Chinese EVs, both as consumer and joint manufacturing, China Space Station, China EV Batteries, China Bullet Trains, China Supply Chains, Rare Earth, Chinese Chips, etc etc are filling the pockets of not only countries in the Global South but also countries in the developed world. China is offering every useful and of good value to the rest of the world with no strings attached.

The next China Card will be on China STEM Talents. This most crucial element that made China what it is today has been missed by countries of the world. China did not brag about them and they are still not on offer to the world. The Chinese STEM talents are real talents, not fake talents, not big mouth braggarts that talked but unable to deliver. They are all armed with the best degrees from the top universities in the West, topping their classes year after year. Soon the rest of the world would wise up to these rare talents and would be grabbing them for their own national interests. If these talents can do what they did for China, they could do the same for countries of the world. And not to forget, they are quietly contributing to Silicon Valley and many high tech American companies, without fanfare, working in the background. Also in American R&D and their academia.

For the moment, the clowns in Washington are chasing the Chinese STEM talents out of America. This is a golden opportunity to grab these talents during this transition period. The loss to the Americans is gain for countries that could grab these talents on their way home, to serve in their motherland.

Ssssshhh, China is not talking about this China Card. This is perhaps the most valuable of all the China Cards. China is going to build moon stations in 2030, with their STEM talents.

PS. Not to forget, the BRICS Card!

China will not be like the white barbarians and savages. Do not presume others are as evil as YOU.

 

 The White Barbarians and Savages been doing all these EVIL Deeds and Murderous Acts for Centuries and their thoughts are the same that China would be like them presumably so in their EVIL minds that they shall be do.

Also, EVIL Scums had fears of Retributions and Vengeance that those that they had wronged.

So hits them before they could rise.

Suppress them first for safety and precautions.

Thus the EVIL Whites with their guilt consciousness!

Oh wrong, they are Savages without consciousness.

People wising up to the twisted lies and propaganda generated by the USA and the West

 People are wising up to the twisted lies and propaganda generated by the USA and the West. It is good that the USA has gloated about having a propaganda machine supported to the tune of US$300 million a year just to turn out filth.

Why should people still want to believe in the MSM, knowing they are just echo chambers used by the propaganda machine to spread their misinformation and disinformation. The illegal Iraq war was one perfect example of how they did it, even to destroy another country. The fabricated love of the Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang was and is another attempt to pull wool over the eyes of unsuspecting people. And the USA and the West contradicted themselves silly by their acts of supporting genocides against the Muslims in the Middle East. Was there any real love for the Uygur Muslims? Tell me!

And today, none of the Global South countries have joined the bandwagon hyping up China's overcapacity threat. Only the USA and its Anglo-Saxon clique are engaged in the demonization of China's overcapacity, solely because they are unable to compete. Why should the Global South countries be unduly worried about China's overcapacity? It is, in fact, a blessing for them being able to continue to enjoy cheap products from China, that they would otherwise have to pay and arm and a leg for. Without China's overcapacity and with the touted (I say touted only) re-industrialization in the USA and the West, they are going to bear the expensive products turn out by the West if not for Chinese overcapacity, just like the USA voters having to bear the added tariffs on their Chinese products. Such a simple scenario is beyond the comprehension and understanding of, what Biden calls, just 'garbage'.

American terrorists and CIA - Help, everyone is threatening US, Help, everyone is meddling in our demestic affairs...

 Everybody seems to be accused of interfering with USA elections over the years, even Iran now. This is a 'red herring' still being used today but is getting stale and hardly effective. Four years of trying to uncover Russian interference with the 2016 election ended up as an empty wild goose chase. The USA will have to come up with a more innovative and persuasive narrative and I think it is running out of barrel bottoms to scrape. It is still stuck with Russian and Chinese interference. Soon, India will also be dragged over the coals if what is happening is any indication.

'In the past, the 'red herring' was all about communism trying to destroy democracy and the voters fell for the fabricated fear mongering. This narrative resulted in the Vietnam War, the domino effect they call it, that if Vietnam falls, the whole of South-East Asia will go the communist way. Well, South Vietnam did fall, and what were the North Vietnamese doing by not expanding communism southwards? It was more an attempt to regain hegemony over the countries in Indochina, which the French failed to retain. It was democracy trying to demolish communism instead of the other way round.

For several years the narrative then focused towards fighting terrorism. More like a master terrorist fighting wannabe terrorists to show it is on the right side. Anyone fighting against USA's interest is branded a terrorist. The USA has no lack of terrorist to fight for several long years.

The USA had been trying to promote democracy in Iraq and look what happens to the country. Afghanistan was thought to be left to go downhill with the defeat of the USA but look what is happening to the country. Things are working without the USA fermenting gloom and inviting doom.

Presidential Election - Garbage vote Garbage into the White House

 

 Well, Biden now calls Trump supporters 'garbage'. Actually, voters of both camps are just 'garbage'. Every four years it is 'garbage in and garbage out' of the White House. Garbage voted their own garbage into the White House, right? It works perfectly fine!

Yesterday the USA Job statistics were painting a rosy job creation picture, just slightly below last month's 216,000. Today, a different picture telling us that job creation in October collapses and is the worst since Biden took over. A big adjustment is coming again.

While businesses are laying off staff and closing down outlets, how could job creation be said to be rosy? Who is hiring? Who are they trying to fool? USA is now more or less like the weathermen, looking at the sky and clutching at straws to paint a rosy picture. At least those weathermen have basis to forecast from satellite images that could still go wrong. The USA Government practically plucks statistics from the air. It does not matter, because voters never take notice anyway because they are after all just 'garbage'.

The Fed is now cutting interest rates this month and the next. These are desperate moves with Janet Yellen and Jerome Powell unable to conjure up more tricks to fool the masses. From this, we can see that the USA economy is tanking, but no fear because Trump is going to make America Great Again. Just give him four more years is all it takes.
