Pakistan is a lost cause. Sunk cost fallacy and all that. Nevermind monetary, the opportunity costs that China has incurred have been massive

Might as well as throw money to the Argentinian economic black hole
Pakistan's leadership is hopeless, but China cannot allow CPEC to fail because of that. CPEC is the showcase project of the BRI and is also one of the alternative energy routes from the Gulf States to China that bypasses the Malacca Strait. It is too important to be abandoned to India and the US. Both of whom have no good intentions for China.

Besides, Pakistan is still an important ally with nukes against India. It is also an important diplomatic link for China to the rest of the Muslim world. Pakistan is far from being as irrelevant as Argentina is.

My suggestion is for China to double down on CPEC. Beef up security, beef up counter intelligence activities, and start getting serious with the terrorize threat. Because what is being done right now is clearly not enough.

It is basically impossible without controlling the border and every movement in and out of Pakistan. Something they have failed to do since like ever.
The Baloch terrorist cell areas overlaps into Iranian and Afghan territory. Without coordination with them, it is gonna be impossible to check terrorist movements across their borders. All three cannot see eye to eye with each other on this matter. So China has to take the leadership and co-ordinate counter terror and counter espionage activities with all three of them. Off course, this is much easier said that done. So this might have to start between China and each individual country.

LMAO. Does he know that Xi Jinping is having a good time with CEOs from his overlord - the US right now? BTW, such meeting really triggered some furious coping from a certain diplomat to Japan.

They are really losing it, their grip on what they perceive as reality in the world.

The utterances from this ambassador, is no more than what a whining 5 year old would say.

Netflix's adaptation of Three Body Problem: the bad part (culture revolution) remains, while the good parts are "Westernized".
Yes. Netflix's story is essentially: the evils of the See-see-pee drove a Chinese girl to call-in an alien invasion to doom Earth. Then it is the West, led by the UK and the US who saves the world from China's mess.

It is never politically correct to show the PRC in even a neutral light. It is always politically correct to take pot shots at the See-see-pee. That's what the Western film critics and most audiences have been programmed.

Netflix's plot is unrecognisable even when compared to the Chinese TV adaptation of the Three Body Problem. This Netflix TBP should not have been allowed to use the title. It's yet another Anglo rip-off of an Asian hit.

This Netflix debacle of a Chinese masterpiece is but the latest iteration of what Thorsten Pattberg calls the west's inability to credit anything to China lest the West becomes simonised, therefore everything that the West steals from China must be repackaged as the Wests own, like the NSA's Tailored Access Operations units stealing industrial IP and passing it off as Western inventions. Why is the West like this? Because deep down western leaders and scholars know they owe everything to China, if not the ancient Egyptians.
democratic ideals and humanism - inspired and influenced by Confucianism.
Gunpowder and tea, self explanatory,
Acupuncture now being re-branded as western 'dry needling'
Qigong breath work now rebranded as 'wimhoff breathing'
Taoism and mindfulness now rebranded by the hedonism of 'just let it be main' movement of the 60s.
21st century industrial society ie controlling webspace and screen time for children - now the west is doing it too.

The West- led by the Anglos in particular jealously want the fruits of Chinese labour yet are so unwilling to learn from China. Governed by insecurity, this is what happens when an upstart island of pirates gets technology but fails to implement the necessary social and spiritual cultivation necessary for human advancement. Look at the conduct of their leaders in the fact of the threat of revolution: you have billionaires looking to create doomsday bunkers in new zealand and Hawaii, rather than fixing the problems back home. They are, as history has proven, unfit to lead and rule, let alone take humanity to the stars.


It's one thing to say thing, another thing to actually do something about it. Let's hope Russians have the necessary tools and ability and will to see this through.


the mouthpiece of american 'realism' is now starting to realise that Containing China is going to result in a sharp depreciation of american power, as LKY put it, China will develop a counter-containment strategy and demolish the united states.

Fun fact:

When the Chinese Gooseberry was first introduced to the American market, nobody bought it and it didn't perform very well in sales. Then it was rebranded and renamed as 'Kiwifruit' and suddenly it exploded in popularity. Now the Kiwi is considered a "superfood" and almost nobody in the (Western) market knows of it's association with China, rather they think it originated in New Zealand.

The anti-China bias is not just in the political ruling class but also in the general population.

The crazy thing about this ambassador's wolf warrior diplomacy is that he is a diplomat to Japan, not China, and should stay in that role. Yet he went out of his way to comment on Xi-US businessmen.

As I have always maintained, China should name it Chinese gooseberry for the fruit sold in China and exported from China.
