Global South countries benefitting from China's overcapacity

 Now, why would Global South countries want to cut their noses to spite their faces? Isn't it better to support China's overcapacity and continue to enjoy cheaper consumer goods? Who wants to pay an arm and a leg for things made in the USA or the West? Only a fool wants that.

And so, as Global South countries enjoy US$30,000 EVs, USA consumers are now going to have to pay US$60,000 for the same EV. The tariff of 100% is basically an added tax by the USA Government. China still makes US$30,000 EVs for countries outside the USA. Such a simple concept and so easy to understand. It works the same way as buying a car in Red Dot, when customers in other countries are paying much less for an identical car. Wonder whether only USA voters are stupid enough to believe that tariffs are good for the country.

You would have noticed that the USA is good in inventing 'word salads' like making 'decoupling' into 'de-risking', subsidies into 'inflation reduction' and UN international Law into 'Rules Based Order'.

The USA can fool most people most of the time, some people most of the time and not all people all the time.

Would the US be able to compete again, fairly?

 When will the USA now be able to compete? No way! Starting from scratch is no longer feasible. The horses have bolted and are now too far away to rein in, therefore closing the stable doors now is an exercise in futility. Just inventing the wheel when others are flying is no way to catch up.

In manufacturing, they hollowed themselves out because of cheaper destinations and should I say greed. The USA can no longer compete on cost. In technology, USA is no longer the top dog dictating the pace and in some sectors which China is now ahead. In patents filed, China is ahead of the USA. No, not just in cooking and washing clothes.

In cutting edge research, they are now aware that Chinese research papers written solely in Chinese is a treasure trove of innovation that they had ignored over the decades. Examples are EVs, batteries, space exploration, super computers, nuclear devices and drone technology.

Chinese research papers were sidelined in University rankings in the past, but now they realized that such papers in science and engineering were cutting edge stuff, not to be ignored.

In semiconductors, China may still be behind, but not for long, with the Chinese Government pouring resources into this sector. Do not ever bet against China. Not just by repeating the collapse of China over and over again. It will not happen.

Trump or whatsoever, the wars must go on...forever

 Do not be deluded that Trump will end the war in the Middle East and Ukraine. It is not going to happen. The MSM is now hyping up the assassination attempt on Trump by Iran. True or not does not matter so long as it enables the USA to find an excuse to target Iran and continue with the Middle East War. Trump never walks the talk if he can help it.

Having said that, ending the war in Ukraine could be a possibility, now that Russia is having the upper hand, and the West knows that it is just a matter of time before Zelensky capitulate. Of course, fabricating a Russian assassination attempt on Trump is out of the question, knowing the history of Russia gate, and Trump and Putin's relation over the years. Despite all the false pretenses by NATO, especially Olaf Scholz about helping Ukraine despite his own political future in doubt, it is just political grandstanding, nothing more. Face saving is now very important for the USA and its European allies, after failing to erase Russia from the face of the earth by using the 'Mother of all sanctions' to collapse Russia. Who had been hoping for the collapse of Russia must be suffering withdrawal symptoms by now, just like Gordon Chang's China collapse, a prediction that had been renewed every year.

The Middle East will just continue to fester and escalate, Trump or not, and you can be sure of that. Trump has a lot of baggage carried over from his first term which he will have to fulfill. The point is that more demonization will come the way of Iran, even with fabricated evidence just as in Iraq. There is nothing the USA will not do just to attain its sick agenda of creating forever wars.

The USA just cannot do otherwise than sustaining a war economy. Manufacturing is not its strong point to uplift its economy today. That is why it is resorting to so many underhand tactics just to keep competitors down, which is an exercise in futility. This has been its modus operandi for decades against countries rising too fast like Germany and Japan. China is just unfortunate to be its punching bag today for the same reason. But China is not France or Japan. China is now a peer competitor in every endeavor, a situation that the USA has never faced before.

Resurgence of Western Imperialism and Colonialism .

 Warmongering G7 countries headed by the United States have plans to recolonize all countries of the South.

The resurgence of Western imperialism and colonialism headed by the Anglo-Saxons US is posing a lethal threat to all countries of the South which include the BRICS countries. The G7 countries in partnering with the Zionist Jews have decided on the march to conquer all countries of the South and rule over them in hegemony under the One World Government headed by the United States and Zionist Israel.

It is imperative all countries of the South must wrap up any petty quarrels or misunderstandings among themselves and unite strongly in solidarity to face the mortal danger of the diabolical threat pose by the resurgent imperialism and colonialism of the white countries of G7 and Israel headed by the United States. The planting of the despicable Zionist state of Israel in Palestine and the genocide of the Arab muslims in Middle East is only a preamble to their greater overall plan to take over all Middle East which includes Turkey and the whole continent of Africa. The United States and the Jews have been stirring choas and turmoils in many parts of Africa especially in the north, east and Central Africa. The present Trump administration is fully packed with racialist and white supremacist warhawks and warmongers. They have openly called for the invasion of Venezuela, Bolivia, Cuba, Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala, Jamaica and Haiti. In Asia they have openly called for war against China, Iran,  Syria, Lebanon, North Korea, Russia, Cambodia and Loas. Also they have plans to destabilise India, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea.

Turbulent times are ahead. The United States and the G7 countries are all bankrupt with deep debt of trillions of dollars. In the past few hundred years they could all live in plenty and splendour because they were able to plunder, rob, loot and steal all the wealth and riches from their colonies. So now being poor and bankrupt they think resorting to wars in imperialism and colonialism will solve their problems and their debts. 

War is over the horizon and may start at any time and at any place. Countries of the South led by Russia, India, Brazil, Iran, China and South Africa must go all out to prepare for nuclear war against the desperate West headed by the evil Anglo-Saxon United States. This could be a final battle and we countries of the South headed by the BRICKS leadership must prevail and destroy the diabolical G7 evil imperial fascist countries and its satanic partner of the despicable illegal state of Israel. Do not expect any mercy from the monstrous G7 countries headed by the US . They will definitely unleash a horrendous nuclear war on we countries of the South and therefore the countries of the South must be ready at any time to hit the G7 countries and Israel with full force of nuclear  bombs to wipe them out clean from this global earth.

Russia, China, India, Brazil, South Africa and Iran as leaders of the South must waste no time in getting all countries of the South to galvanize in unity and solidarity to fight and win the last battle against the neurotic insane G7 warmongering countries headed by the evil Anglo-Saxon United States. Time is of the essence. Get fully and totally prepare to destroy the barbaric Western warmongers .

China concerned, worried about North Korean soldiers in the Ukraine War? Really?

'Troops have become North Korea’s latest contribution in support of Russia’s war in Ukraine - which has intensified over the weekend - putting China in an uncomfortable “diplomatic tight spot”.

China has many reasons to be concerned, analysts say. (Who are these analysts?)

It is worried that the escalation risks pulling Asia into the European conflict, raising the stakes and bringing unwelcome conflict closer to its doorstep. 

It is facing pressure from the United States and South Korea to use its sway - however much there is - to rein in North Korea and Russia.  Article Boots on the ground, by Lee Gim Siong, CNA

 

The above comments in CNA discussed the two views, by western so called analysts and the real eastern analysts on how China would perceive and react to the North Koreans fighting in the Ukraine War. Western reports said North Koreans are fighting in the front line together with the Russians and have contacts with the Ukrainians, killing some Ukrainians. They added as usual, many North Koreans have been killed. Really? Where is the proof?

The agenda of the so called western analysts is to create the impression that China was very unhappy with this development, that the North Koreans are leaning closer to the Russians, that there is deep distrust between the Russians and Chinese and they would be disturbed by everything, including the North Koreans fighting in the war. It was quoted that 'China is particularly concerned the conflict could be brought closer to home, Dr Edward Howell, departmental lecturer in international relations at Christ Church, University of Oxford, told CNA.'  The truth is that the North Koreans would help to make sure the war would stay in Ukraine with Russia coming up as the victor. How naive can this Oxford lecturer be? Is this the quality of the thinking of Oxford lecturer?

Another more dramatic view is this,

'There could be grave consequences if Seoul does follow through, warned Dr Alexey Muraviev, an associate professor of national security and strategic studies at Curtin University.

“We may end up having a … proxy conflict, where Ukraine is considered a proxy conflict between the two Koreas and allies,” he told CNA.'

What? North Koreans fighting in Europe would lead to a proxy war between the two Koreans, ...if Seoul does follow through', like what, sending South Koreans to Ukraine to fight the North Koreans? How old is this associate professor, 3 year old? Who is he trying to frighten?

Another silly dig to cause division between China and Russia is this,  'A paper published on Nov 1 by researchers from the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War suggests that Pyongyang may be using its growing alignment with Moscow to reduce its dependence on Beijing.' Are the Russians, Chinese and North Koreans that dull, in the face of existential threat from the evil Americans and still bickering with each other over minor issues? Only the American terrorists can think and act rationality in their national interests? The Russian, Chinese and North Korean leaders are full time politicians, not news reader, con men, lawyers or charlatans elected to be part time leaders for a few years. They think deeply and far ahead than those clowns in Washington. They know what they are doing, not to rally support from the ignorant crowds for their votes.

What is frightening the Americans and the West is this, 'On the one hand, the Russia-North Korea arrangement risks a bloc being formed. Inevitably including China, it would be placed against a US-South Korea-Japan alliance, said Mr Zhu Feng, dean of the Institute of International Studies at Nanjing University, in a Nov 6 report by British news outlet The Guardian. 'Yeah, a bloc is forming, actually formed long ago without any fanfare, for the 3 states to fight together against the aggressive Americans and the West. They cannot afford to break ranks and be taken down one at a time by the American warmongers and the expansionist NATO.

'Dr Muraviev suggested that China may be tacitly offering "quiet approval," or at the very least, choosing not to "vehemently oppose" the expanding military cooperation between North Korea and Russia....

I cannot see North Korea and Russia pursuing a path that excludes Beijing,” said Dr Muraviev, citing China’s “significant influence” over both nations.' This is a sensible comment by a thinking academic, not the fly by night so called western analysts, probably paid by the Americans to write what the Americans wanted them to say.

Another logical comment is this, 'Likewise, Ms Divya of Fudan University believes Moscow and Pyongyang will continue to put their relations with Beijing ahead of their own.'  The Russians, Chinese and the North Koreans are serious players in international relations and clear thinking. They know that they are all targeted for destruction by the Americans and the West and their only hope for survival is to unite and fight together. Wish the Arab and Muslim states could act the same way, could know who is their real enemy, and what their fate would be if there is no Russia, China, North Korea and Iran to hold the fort, to keep the aggressive and expansionist American and western terrorists from conquering and ruling the world.

If China, Russia, North Korea and Iran failed to stop the American and western terrorists, what would life be for the Arab and Muslim states, for the Latin American and African states?

Kim Jung Un has proven to be a decisive and clear thinking leader of international standard. He knows very well what would become of North Korea if Russia and China would to fall. He is standing up and putting his support in the most crucial way, by sending his soldiers to the front line to fight the aggressors that are planning to take over his country. 

Many Arab and Muslim states are increasingly taking firmer stand against the American and Israeli genocide and their plan to take over the Middle East, to rule the Arab and Muslim states by Israel. Clear thinking leaders of the Global South have no choice but to make a stand. Unless they are happy to be ruled by the racist white supremacy terrorists in Washington and London and their European colonies.

Saudi Arabia and Jordan are under extreme pressure from the American terrorists but are still trying their best to stand with the Palestinians. None would be seen going to Washington to kiss Trump's ass.

And the Americans wanted to order China to tell the North Koreans not to send troops to support Russia. They think the can order China around to do their bidding. They think North Korea is like American doggies, would be ordered by the Americans to do whatever the Americans want them do so.
