At the Paris Olympics, all the cuisine will be French, but mass-produced goods from China will be everywhere, from cutting-edge sports equipment to dinky souvenirs.
Tai added that China’s manufacturing sector has become “pretty cost-competitive” over the past 30 years, with many factories producing high-level original equipment.
“Going forward, Chinese manufacturing will move up the value chain by using more artificial intelligence or automation in the production process,” he noted.
“Although labour costs have risen in China, logistics, work efficiency and transport are much better in China than in those Southeast Asian countries,” said Qiu Dongxiao, head of economics at Lingnan University in Hong Kong.
“In China’s case, even though it has become a world leader in many advanced manufacturing sectors, not all of the low-end manufacturing has migrated out,” said Stephen Olson, a senior adjunct fellow at the Pacific Forum and a visiting lecturer and non-resident fellow at the Yeutter Institute in the US state of Nebraska.
“China remains competitive at both ends of the spectrum,” he added.

What does Ukraine have on offer at this point to justify this stupid level of pure arrogance. Should this moron end up being hit by a FAB-500, I’d say he is asking for it given that Ukraine did send those neo Nazis to help with the HK riots so really, he should stfu and gtfo of China if he values his worthless life instead of trying his hand at mucking around in HK again. I have never forgiven these stupid fools for what they tried to do in HK in regard to the riots and honestly I hope he chokes on it given the fact that sooner or later, he is going to be out of a job along with his coked up boss

So says the walking corpse.

One big mistake the Secret Service made was that they greatly overestimated the degree of difficulty to shoot Trump.

This Olympics is going to suck and this stupid Israeli favoritism also sucks as well. What givens them the right to be this entitled anyway

The Olympics is no longer what it was suppose to be. I've been boycotting it for some time now as they've become too commercialized and political. Instead, I support my local amateur sports community.

There's nothing but bad news back home. Similar to Zelensky, he rather be elsewhere.

They changed the law a few months ago. Him forging fake documents to impersonate and steal their house put him in the first degree felony as a squatter. Surprising that the real owners have to go through civil litigation to reclaim their property.



Even then the sentence is very excessive. Clearly, the DA wanted to use him as an example. 40 years of prison AND 30 years of probation.
Harming the interests of property owners: Check
Being Black: Check

US leads China only in standing military size (aside from all the sarcastic measures like prisoner numbers or opium addicts).

A standing military alone does not a more powerful nation make. Economy size, productive ability, research output, automobiles and aircraft manufactured, there are many more important measures than just having a large peacetime standing army.

I don't even know if there's any credibility to this story because they get some facts wrong about rare earths. Just because China controls 80% of rare earths on the market. It doesn't mean 80% of rare earths are found in China. China acquires a lot of rare earth ore from paying for mining rights in other countries. The US and the West can't compete because they aren't willing to pay as much as the Chinese. China processes 80% of the rare earths on the market is more like it. It's the processing part that gives China the monopoly because the West isn't willing pay the price from processing because it's difficult and hazardous and it cost too much for the technology to process for others countries to do it themselves. And remember the US ships their rare earth ore they find and own to China to be processed.

If this rare earth deposit is in China then it belongs to China. China shouldn't be even negotiating over it. Chinese like thinking they're civilized hence why they're entertaining negotiations. From the Western perspective, China negotiating means Beijing recognizes there's legitimacy to the claim.
