When Duterte was in power, there was a rebellion happening, suddenly now Marcos is in power, rebellion is not active anymore? Why couldn't China try to fund and activate such rebellion?

Easy, because Duterte had done all the hard dirty work, fighting both the insurgency and the drug menace simultaneously and crushing them ,so Marcos is lucky, he was given a stable country to run and his incompetency become our misery. Good luck to Whoever the next president, he or she need a ball of steel to stir the country back to 2019 level under Duterte.

Fixing this country involves a huge push for modernization. Central Asia had similar problems. Tajikistan for example suffered from a violent civil war but they solved it by secularization and modernization of the country and sometimes with an iron fist instead of sliding back into bizarre 7th century lifestyle.. Otherwise you can come back in 50 years and still read headlines like these. No amount of silencing/banning people would change the reality.

lol. Study 7th century Soft Power. Saudi news paper Okaz in 2017 wrote partnership of century and reconstruction of region.
Tajikistan practically had 100% literacy rate thanks to Soviets with small population and they are secular and leftist. further secularization could not have solved that civil war problem except for Russia intervention.

The picture that you see below is the right wing. Putin really want them successfull but its much harder to work with right. Behind this Putin approach is hundreds of years of 7th century education.

I just have to say, the US is flexing its power everywhere and at some point China will have to hit US vassals hard.

Japan will become more belligerent, EU seemingly bend over backwards for the US is now actively washing economic war against China.

I am confident the Dutch court will rule against China in Nexperia case.

Now EU tariff Chinese ceramics and investigating Chinese wind turbines. China needs to investigate EU produces as well and plan it better so as to hit them right when they hit China. Eg. Prepare to hit back if nexperia doesn't return to wingtech.

Thailand may also flip to a less friendly govt sure to US support for the pro West party. South America seems to be going towards right wing govt who are supportive of trump and the US. I guess all this is the power of US media and influence.

China needs to step up. Make it hurt for those to go against its interest. Eg. Accident at the Panama canal. Or a fire at the nexperia Malaysian plant if nexperia is it given back to wingtech. Something to increase the cost of taking Chinese assets.

The Lithuania case is a prime example of Chinese victory.

Its not the same thing but its a good case study of what fundamentals to use for other countries that try to f around with China and think there will be no consequences. Maybe why China doesn't look so strong in flexing is the results take longer to become apparent;

But to be fair I rather have results that appear later but also have a much deeper impact than ones that appear earlier but are shallow.

What do you guys think? Good move or bad? Ultimately, I think it's a nothingburger and won't do anything to prevent Canada from throwing China under the bus after a friendlier to them US government gets voted in. But I guess it cost nothing, so whatever.

I feel it's a bad move. It shows China is willing to bend the rules of law if a country is even just a little friendly to it. Law is law. It should be upheld

Otherwise the next time something like that happens it will seem more like politics and less rule of law.

Never liked Deepak Chopra. Never bought the enlightened bull he dished. He talks about peace but I’ve heard him repeat Indian nationalistic rhetoric. Notice what other “enlightened” are also pedos…? I get the same vibe from Salman Rushdie. I wonder if and how many times his name shows up in Epstein peodfiles…

See… a lot of China-haters for some reason turn out to be criminal perverts as well.

I’m surprised they didn’t dare to try claim Epstein was a double agent for China. Yeah Epstein was everything but working for Israel.

On twitter they’re already trying to insert propaganda and poison pills like how supposedly Epstein worked for Russia and how President Xi, Macron, Putin and pope Francis attended a wedding in Notre dame.

plot thickens, looks like both factions, compromised by Epstein are now rushing to tell teacher to get the other guys in trouble.

In another conversation revealed in the latest document drop, Epstein offered to arrange a meeting between Modi and former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon just hours after Modi had won a thumping majority in the Indian national election in 2019.

In an iMessage to Bannon on May 19, 2019, Epstein wrote, “modi sending someone to see me on thurs,” referring to Ambani.

That Thursday, May 23, Epstein met Ambani in New York and his calendar for that day shows no other meeting scheduled.

After the meeting with Ambani, Epstein wrote to Bannon: “really interesting modi meeting. He won [the 2019 parliamentary elections] with HUGE mandate. His guy said that no one in wash speaks to him however his main enemy is CHINA! And their proxy in the region pakistan. They will host the g20 in 22.. Totally buys into your vision.”

Epstein then messaged Ambani: “I think mr modi might enjoy meeting steve bannon, you all share the china problem.” And Ambani wrote back: “sure.”

Epstein then wrote back to Bannon: “modi on board.”

No way Bannon was behind Modi's 2020 Galwan move, AIN'T NO WAY.
