I didn’t ignore it. It’s actually quite funny. The article talks about Motorola as some champion of industry and the CCP and Huawei killed them. Talking about work in the early 2000’s, like come on, early 2000’s China killed your company? Sounds like the Canadians who say Huawei hacked and stole Nortel IP and killed them. What about the Execs who actually stole from the pension fund??

This line is especially good

But fundamentally, they appear to have misunderstood the transaction. They thought they were hiring a contractor; Beijing knew it was running an apprenticeship.

Yes, all the western CEOs who are in charge of billion dollar companies were all so stupid and naive to think China was not trying to learn. The whole point of the JV system was to learn, all sides knew this. It wasn’t a secret!

Did you not see the last story with Cameron Highlanders posting dick pics on facebook?
That was last week?

Dicks and bagpipes.

Now we have seen everything!

Expect for the Maple Leafs winning a Stanley Cup.

Feels so inadequate.

No wonder they playing with their bagpipes like that.

The three major concerns for the IOC are:
1) Poor governance by the IOA. Financial mismanagement and lack of transparency
2) Rampant doping. Highest positivity rate among major countries.
3) Poor performance in the Olympics. Failed to enter the top 10 rankings in the past five Olympics.

IOC is one of the most corrupt organizations in the world, rivalled only by the legendary FIFA.

This rejection only means that India didn't pay enough bribes. Gotta pay more!

grouping of emerging economies have not formed a unified position on a proposed alternative payment system, according to New Delhi’s foreign minister.

Speaking at the London-based think tank Chatham House last week during a six-day visit to Britain and Ireland, Subrahmanyam Jaishankar described the dollar as a “source of international economic stability”.

Jaishankar said India “has never had a problem” with the dollar’s role and had no plan to replace it as the world’s dominant currency. He also hailed Delhi’s relations with the US, while expressing cautious optimism about its improving ties with Beijing.

India need to have right approach. It will lose with its current trajectory as it does not fully understand it status.
