The solution to this is so simple and staring at everyone in the fact that I don't understand why they don't see it:
Kiss up to the CPC and you immediately get the VIP treatment and jump to the front of the queue
Duterte does this every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, he trash talk China the other days of the week and he still get vaccine special delivery from PLAAF.
Haha yes. The famous be polite to someone who is saving theblives of your citizens.
You are right though, the CPC would absolutely love it if a foreign leader came out and said that he loves China, Xi is his friend, praise China etc. And I am sure after the CPC has been given "face", it would in turn give "face" to the country by giving it priority access to vaccine
The problem in Bangladesh and other countries in that region, is that they dont dare to openly praise China, friendship etc, because India is like a paranoid boyfriend looking over his shoulder.
