For naval warfare they likely to use a more hellish arsenal.

That's why the point of the SCMP article is rather moot, because none of the American and Japanese surface capital ships can survive a confrontation with China either.

No idea how credible this info is:

India's Democratic system is actually its biggest concern. 'Democracy' only works well in a relatively small population but when the population is in the hundreds of millions and everyone has a voice at the same time, it becomes its Achilles heel. Voting in this way can get the most incompetent, corrupted, fanatical, weirdo and manipulating politicians into office.

What India needs is to find a way to sieve out the scum, layer by layer from the bottom up so that only the most competent politicians progress. But with Indian caste system inherent in their society, nothing short of a revolution is required.

Smart Indian people need to suck it up, return to India, and have at least ten children each. That's the only way to save India from the immense damage that the caste system has done to the Indian gene pool. If India doesn't get rid of the caste system, egalitarian countries like Pakistan and Bangladesh will leave India in the dust.

It is to introduce healthy life style in society and this will decrease cost of heart diseases, diabetes and people will have positive attitudes . This place is solely created due to House of Saud efforts to unite various tribes.
you seem to have some issue with them maybe due to Israel or some other reason. but Palestine does not belong to Arabian peninsula nor Palestinian fought on there behalf against communists. This was Turkish control area for centuries, Turks recognize this Israel, did all the business and are part of Council of Europe.

Wasn't this practice the norm against that famous ancient Hejazi from the Quraysh? Wherever he went to catechize people, his enemies sent a bandwagon of entertainers to sway people's attention away.

you think this Saudi population is idiots and not have any sense of self awareness. the rest of muslim world should be glad that they organize millions of pilgrimage every year. if they extend to Tourism, Sports and Entertainment it will provide much more to everyone.

. But growth has been brisk at around 6% a year since 2012 (except during the pandemic). The economy has quietly boomed under a variety of regimes, from the liberal President Benigno Aquino (2010-16) to the thuggish President Rodrigo Duterte (2016-22). The run is set to continue under President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos (see chart 1). The World Bank says the Philippines will soon be an upper-middle-income country.

The jokes write themselves.
