Weibo is the Chinese government now?
Is China supposed to be some kind of hive-mind entity?
The European vassals are eager for their Ukrainian adventure to end soon or at least to freeze the conflict to recover after more than a year of proxy war. And how Europe still thinks it can mediate this conflict is beyond laughable.
Pretty much everything that has to do with encryption/privacy and comes from the west is just a CIA ops.
Crypto needed to be popular so they could finance NGO/proxies and to make sure global south money always had a way
to leak to the west. Just take FTX, Ukraine and Biden as an example. But what the west probably didn't expected was wealth can also leak from the west to the global south. North korea hacking wallets allegedly, Iran and others using crypto to bypass sanctions.
They are probably expecting a lot of wealth to leak from the west because of fucked up western economies, so they are probably now discrediting crypto and will probably ban it.
I still remember a long time ago when PGP encryption came out. The US government tried to ban its use for quite a long time and they failed. They tried to arrest Phil Zimmerman the author of PGP. That was probably one of the few crypto efforts which was not under the CIA's purview back then. He also did not use CIA "approved" ciphers initially. He made his own cipher, and then he switched to the IDEA cipher. But since the CIA got off Phil's back, my guess is they found some way to break his product.
I noted today that the Jakarta to Bandung HSR is set to open this year. This is a B&R Debt Trap project
Key stats:
Length: ~150 Km (300 Indian Km)
Cost: $8b US
Started: 2016
A non debt trap project (only China does that) built in Toronto, the Eglinton Crosstown light rail line has been delayed until 2024 earliest
Key stats:
Length: 20 Km
Cost: $9.25b US and counting (aka "The Cost of Freedom")
Started: 2016

What did you get $75 from? That aside, I'm shocked that the wages there are less than 1/3 than what am being paid now as a new apprentice technician. I honestly didn't imagine that it would be so low. Sounds like there is a lot of room for Mexican worker wage increase from American economic hard power.
LMAO you realize that larger working population drives down wages through competition?
Is the $75 even accurate? The VM Puebla plant in Mexico in this article says contracts were between ~$15 - $48 per day and that it was some of the highest in the Mexican auto industry. What source is the $75 from? This article is from 2022 and the contract rejects an 8% (wants 15%) increase in mid + maybe a 15% increase from exchange rates since 2022.
PRC renounced state claim, but can not renouncing nor forbiding claims from individual Chinese. Any offspring of victims can still make the claim in a Chinese court who in turn can rule that Japan must pay. Essentially Japan can never get away with it so long as China is not satisfied with Japan's behaviour and China the state does not need to break any commitment.
This has happened in SK, the recent court order to confesticate Japanese company's property for compensation was NOT from SK government but from individuals.
