"Vietnam’s Ministry of Industry and Trade will apply an anti-dumping duty at 97% for five years against wind towers imported from China.

Under a decision by the ministry, effective in 15 days from the issuance date December 24, the duty will be levied on wind towers under HS codes 7308.20.11, 7308.20.19, 8502.31.10, and 8502.31.20. The HS codes are subject to updates, the ministry said.

Jiangsu Zhenjiang New Energy Equipment Co., Ltd is the only Chinese entity not subject to the anti-dumping duty.

The ministry clarified that firms in Vietnam can make good wind towers and such products have been exported to major markets such as the U.S., Canada, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, Australia, Japan, and South Korea.

However, Chinese firms have delivered their products to Vietnam at dumped prices, hurting the domestic market. The anti-dumping duty aims to restore fair competition in the market, between local products and imported goods, it argued.

Vietnam’s generated and imported electricity in the first 10 months of 2024 reached 258.7 billion kWh, up 10.6% year-on-year, according to state utility Vietnam Electricity (EVN). Wind power accounted for 9.56 billion kWh, or 3.7% of the total."

Elon continues his meltdown on Twitter towards the anti-Indian MAGA. Apparently this Adrian Dittman account is his burner (he is trying to hide it with a voice changer but his trans daughter exposed it a few months ago)

Hated by the left and hated by the right... who else will Elon try to burn? Will he FAFO with the Chinese? :)

Isn't this American version of "这国怎,定体问".

As I saw someone else put it well: if America is still capable of having a Sputnik Crisis today then there is still hope, because realizing you're in a sputnik moment is the first step to fixing things and catch up. If you can't even realize you're in a crisis and instead deal with what you're seeing with all sorts of cope like "NGAD flew first, you just can't see it" or "manned fighter is obsolete, hypersonic missiles and drones are the future" even thought that one mysterious power from the East also happens to have the lead in those fields, then there is no hope.

Indian man is having a Sputnik Crisis on behalf of Americans, they should thank him instead of attack him.

Something funny I came across, both thread are hilarious. The original comment for those who don't want to squint.

This is to everyone -- do NOT crosspost, mock or directly reference from other communities or individuals in other communities.

I understand this is the miscellaneous thread, but it is poor etiquette to cross pollinate between communities like so, and risks direct community on community contact that may risk mutual animosity, brigading and so on.

I will be deleting the relevant posts.

Tbh India needs more of such people, China didn't modernize with eunuchs and yes sayers but with people Sun, Mao and Deng.
But Shiv Aroor is not one of those true Indian patriots. He is a typical Indian media fanboy cheerleader, not unlike Palki Sharma. He is just venting his frustration that after years of intense Jai Hind propaganda, reality had not caught up at all.

Yet India is unlikely to have a Sun, Mao, or Deng figure anytime soon. India's current political and social structure is too damn rooted in British colonialism. "India" as a nation is not even 80 years old yet. While it does have ancient civilizations within it's boundaries, it was never a unified empire prior to British colonialism. But instead of acknowledging these ancient civilizations, the Indians have chosen to create the fictional concept of the "Akhand Bharat" Hindu Empire. Yet it also wants to call itself the "Mother of Democracy", and the successor of the British Raj. They want to represent the Global South, but are loincloth imperialists themselves. There is just too many contradictions in India for it to actually move forward.
