Cambodia turning towards USA?

President Donald Trump is being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Cambodia for helping to avert a deadly war in the region.

Many speculations on the Thai Cambodia border skirmishes have been reported trying to fish out who actually started it. Some claimed it was the Thai, while some claimed it was the Cambodians. Whatever, some parties are very happy to ignite this conflict in peaceful Southeast Asia, hoping that it would blow up and create another area of instability in the region. Fortunately sensible leaders stepped in to snuff out the flames. 

ASEAN Chairman Anwar Ibrahim was busy holding meetings with the two sides and ended having them shaking hands and temporarily hold them down to an immediate ceasefire. Anwar's role is obvious to everyone in the region, with photoops as well. But credit was stolen by Trump who claimed credit for the ceasefire. Cambodia, instead of thanking Anwar is now nominating the war criminal Trump who is continuing with his genocide in Gaza for the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump was instrumental in the ceasefire sitting in the comfort of his office in Washington, with a phone call, and not Anwar who was running around like a bull's arse fly with no recognition?

The actions of the Cambodia is raising question as to who started this conflict and where is Cambodia's alignment. Cambodia has been saved from destruction by China, China was the sole benefactor for building up what Cambodia is today, and is still pouring money into Cambodia. Why is Cambodia cozying up to the Americans? The second point of interest is the release of the taped conversation between Hunsen and Paetongtarn that led to her downfall. The Shinawatra family and Hunsen were very closed, family friends. Why would Hunsen do this to bring about the fall of Paetongtarn? Why would Cambodia, a relatively much weaker country, dared to start a body conflict with its much stronger neighbour?

There is absolutely not reason for the Shinawatras to turn against Hunsen. Thaksin was Hunsen's adviser and close friend and stayed in Cambodia for a long time. The only possible reason is that some foreign intelligence reports were offered by a third party to Hunsen to insinuate that Thailand had bad intention. The evidence could be fabricated but someone in Cambodia chose to believe in the misinformation and used it to create mistrust and to sour the relations of the two sides. This is standard American practice that they used against the Arabs and ASEAN countries. All it needs is a few influential parties in the country that stand on the side of the reports, believing in the reports and convincing others that the reports are true. And you will have trouble instantly.

Hunsen and Cambodia's behaviours are highly suspicious and controversial, as good as betraying his good relationship with Thaksin. Why? Who is behind all these misunderstandings or provocations? 
China has to be very careful with Cambodia and where it is heading. Very likely there is a mole in Cambodia, very influential, to incite this incident. Would Cambodia turn into another ungrateful beneficiary of China, turn against China in due course?

When French balls shrink. China could have buried the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle in the South China Sea

 


8 minutes clip of the French aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle and 3 escort ships flirting in the South China Sea in a show of force under the guise of freedom of navigation in Mar 2025. China sent 40 warships to surround the French fleet, telling the French China could bury every one of the French ships, including the aircraft carrier in one go.

Every movement of the French was checked, and any funny move could result in being shot and sank. The French learnt a lesson and avoided the intended mission to sail through the Taiwan Strait. Instead they diverted outwards towards Japanese islands in the Pacific Ocean.

China was in a way telling the French, scoot off or else. Not only the French convoy were surrounded by 40 Chinese warships, but there were also Chinese bombers and hypersonic missiles all ready to fire and sink them.

Other Mickey Mouse warships from Britain, India think they are unsinkable and dare to try in their silly show of force would only make themselves look more silly in the South China Sea. Even the American aircraft carriers would be sunk if they try to be funny in the South China Sea or East China Sea.

Only the rotting junk Pinoy piece of shit called ship would not be shot at because it would be a waste of bullets and missiles.

PS. Latest, Indian and Pinoy and their WW2 and hand me down ships holding joint patrols in the South China Sea to frighten China.

Americans coercing India to take side...but the Americans would say it is China forcing India to take sides

 Two things that came to my mind when India negotiated its tariff agreement with the USA. How is India going to be forced to import USA rice that will put its rice farmers out of business? The second question I had to ask was how is India going to do without Russian oil? Trump said that he is punishing India with a 25% tariff for buying Russian oil, thus supporting the Russian economy and its war funding.


Now India is not even buying USA's F35 fighter jets and reverting to buying Russian military equipment, a real slap on the face of Trump. India is not opening up the Indian agricultural sector as well by allowing USA rice into the country to kill off its farmers. Of course, Trump can never force India to buy its contaminated beef stuffed with growth hormones, that Hindus are forbidden to consume on religious grounds.

As I said earlier, India's future lies with BRICS and it is time for India to think rationally, instead of being used by the USA to stifle the growth of BRICS. If India sees and realizes that its future is tied to BRICS, that will be a great win for BRICS as well and Trump will be hopping mad and facing de-dollarization on an even faster trajectory.

Thailand must put a stop to foreign intervention

Each time the USA created unrest in Thailand, Red Shirts or Yellow Shirts, the Thai Monarchy eventually steps in to calm the situation, while the Thai Military will enact emergency rule to prevent a revolution that favors the USA. What does the USA need to do to destabilize Thailand? Create wars among neighbors.

Taking out the Thai Monarchy and preventing the strong Thai Military regime from restoring calm is the only way, and the irony is that the Thai Military and segments of the Thai population knows that keeping the Monarchy is essential for peace in Thailand. There have been calls for removing the influence of the Thai Monarch or curb its power under recent Government changes that failed.

Thailand must move ahead with its new law requiring NGOs to disclose their funding, which will tell the Government which foreign country is trying to destabilize Thailand. The answer, a no-brainer, will ultimately point to the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) together with the CIA funding those NGOs working the ground.

That is clearly foreign intervention into the internal affairs of a sovereign country. Singapore already outlawed any foreign funding for political parties, with even foreign or domestic companies' involvement in funding of political parties in election campaigns not allowed. Which is why funding disclosure of election campaigns had to be closely monitored.

China's chip self sufficiency is a death knell to American chip manufacturers

China is now telling Jensen Huang of Nvidia to prove that its H20 chips sold in China is secure, meaning that China is confident enough now to do away with Nvidia chips in China if proof is not forthcoming. True or not, some are talking about a kill-switch backdoor that could be detrimental for Chinese AI developers. China does not have to prove any security breaches by Nvidia, just like the USA not needing to prove that Huawei is a security threat to ban it completely earlier. Let us watch the show developing.

The USA wants to punish entities and countries using Huawei chips, which means that such Huawei chips are really competitive in performance and no pushovers to elicit such a response. In return China is paying the USA back in its own coin by going after Nvidia for a start. I think that is perfectly fair with USA claiming Huawei chips as violating USA export controls. China can use National Security Issues against Nvidia and other USA chip manufacturers doing business in China. The Chinese market is one big chip market that is important for many, including TSMC, from which Nvidia is using to make its H20 chips.

There have been warnings by some analyst about the H20 chips from Nvidia and about Nvidia wanting to continue having a strong foothold in China for nefarious reasons, knowing that AI development in China is not playing second fiddle to USA entities.
