I really wish one day the gov would consider supporting overseas Chinese to relocate back to the country even if they are old, poor and sick if they want to especially those that are born outside of china where they're not given the choice, it's a matter of dignity and that's the one thing about Israel most people have respect for .

I am with you here. But I am not holding my breath. I see it as a supply and demand problem. It is also a matter of priority for China. The nation is not able to address this need yet. Therefore it is not fair to compare China to Israel on this.

We're talking about it in the F-35 thread already.
Anyway, I find the flop pretty comical, the damn thing just went straight down like a brick. That's $100 million USD down the tube.
If I did my maths right, that's 2 out of 18 planes on QE that went out of action during this deployment, a 11% casualty rate without actually fighting.

Remember when they joked about the Russians losing fighters with the Admiral Kuznetsov in Syria a couple years back?
They are losing fighters without actually delivering payload even.

Because of an inherent weakness of the Chinese political system. It has no room for political or policy dissent or for ventilation even when grievances are genuine.

So when you have such characters they can only ventilate from outside of China and not within unlike in democracies.

Add Western propaganda and their voices get amplified you'd think they are the majority.

It's a cost that China must bear.

This explains why you were harping in about "Chinese corruption" in Africa.

Frankly, anyone who regurgitates the Western mantra that China doesn't have freedom of speech isn't qualified to discuss China in the first place.

Are you somehow under the impression that those homes should be given to overseas Chinese, or that those reserves should be spent on them?

Pretty entitled of you.

What's wrong with giving? Giving is a virtue very few is capable of, entitled? So you deem yourself entitle to judge others entitlement? You think the poor, sick and old is a burden to the country? Everyone is able to contribute if they are given the chance in their own way, the strength of the country does not exist on material terms alone.

What are you talking about? China has millions of empty homes and can construct more. Those homes are for sale to those who can buy them. Sometimes, they may be given out as incentive for the extremely talented to come to the area. That's how the real world works. Nobody in any county starts building skyscrapers to furnish the rooms with modern furniture and give it to the old/sick/poor, either out of pity or in hopes that they can transform into someone useful to society. I'm not ragging on people who have little; I might end up one someday but I'm just telling you it doesn't work that way. China has social welfare programs that give to the poor but obviously not entire houses/apartments given for free to random overseas Chinese people because that's ridiculous. Stop living in your imagination.
