He almost certainly did understand Trudeau's English. It was not that accented, and President Xi are one of those politicians that are relatively close to America, having spent time there.

Actually he wouldn't be able to so quickly follow the conversation and use that opportunity humiliate Trudeau if he didn't understand most of the convo without a translator. You can see that Xi doesn't let the translator even start saying what Trudeau was saying before replying.
No, I meant that Trudeau didn't understand what Xi was saying, but didn't wait for the translation cus he knew it wasn't gonna be good. Xi is far more educated; I know his English is fine. He is the first Chinese leader to truly embody the concept of knowing your enemy and knowing yourself.

Minimum 12 Egg Tarts, 11 sausages, 10 fried chicken, 2 fried donuts, bowl of sweet potatoes, and some sort of burrito wrap. Is this breakfast for an 500lb man?
I ain't sure about that, but what I am definitely certain is that this breakfast is a daily must for Drew Pavlou. No wonder he's so "round" when he's just in his twenties.

Guys stop posting Indian twitter accounts.

If this was an actual Kazakh, Taiwanese, or even American they would have said "servant class" or "lowest class", not use the word "caste" which is almost exclusive to the subcontinent, even if its a proper english word.

Also, the second post refers to a "university breakfast" in Manchuria. No region of the world uses calories as an insult in this day other than the Indian sub-continent since there are significant people in India that are malnourished/underfed. A Kazakh, Mongol, Kyrgyz, Vietnamese, Japanese, Taiwanese, American... would have come up with many other insults, not one regarding calories. Just see how much Indian media celebrates "calorie nourishment" among the dalits along with the now abundance of toilets for the superpowa and you will know exactly where this post came from.

LOL, you have all been duped by some Hindu BJP troll using a chinese phone in Bihar.

My impression of Xi was always he wasn't very good at public speaking and doing off the cuff stuff and I was fine with that. He seemed quite good at running the country, leave the cussing people out without using swear word thing to Yang Jiechi, that's his job. Not everyone can be as charismatic as The Elder but that wasn't critical part of running the country.

But as it turned out with this incident he was quite capable at putting people in their place when needed, he just never bother to show it off before. It's quite the pleasant bonus.

These are just projections of Western white supremacist ideas on China. It is true that the ruling elite of China wasn't Han for half of the last millennium but that is irrelevant because nations, as we know them today, didn't exist back then. The idea of nations is mostly a modern idea. It is so global and fundamental which leads people to think it always existed but that is simply not true. The said Mongol ruling elite used to sell their tribal slaves to Han and Arab landlords to finance their luxurious lifestyles. Over time this led to Mongols becoming the lowest caste of Yuan Empire unless they were nobles. Most of the Yuan army that conquered China was Han and there were a lot of Mongols in uprisings against the Yuan Dynasty. As I said, never think about nations while reading about pre-1700s history. The concept didn't exist. There were just ruling factions and their lands. Qing and Yuan Dynasties played the political game well and they found a lot of supporters, which included a lot of Hans as the demographics of East Asia would mandate. That enabled them to rule lands that we today know as China.

And if we are talking about modern times, the term "Chinese" includes all ethnicities living in China, a gift to China by the Qing Dynasty. Both ROC and PRC wisely adopted the same policy too.

You know that's interesting. This brings me a lot of old memorys,decades ago when Chinese internet was pretty free compare to now,there were many ethnic minority forums.

I had visit many of those forums,the atmosphere was very toxic and antagonistic against Han people and China in general. There was nothing explicit against the CCP nor anything about "independent from China",I guess it's just that the server is located inside China and they don't want the forum get shutdown by the authority. But the anti-China sentiment is very clear on these forums,it's filled with negative news about China,you‘d get banned if you say anything good about China.

Specifically,there was ethnic Zhuang/Miao forum,who relate themself to Southeast Asia countries rather than China. And I remember some Han poster post something like “we are all descendants of Yan[di] and Huang[di]炎黄子孙 ”,then got reply like "No,we are the descendants of 蚩尤Chiyou,we are not the same with you(Han)".

And there was ethnic Korean forum,who relate themself to North and South Korea but not China. They claim that Korean war was mainly fought between North Korean and US army,Chinese army had no role in it,and China somehow is blamable for the split up of two Koreas.

Then there was ethnic Manchu forum,it's just full of horseshit like how great the Qing was and Han people are ungrateful.

There were more,but it's been 10 years and I forgot alot.
