So they want to give money coupons to help subsidize the inflated rices prices but continue the policy of restricted rice production. Projecting output increases as an “medium to long term” policy with a focus on rice exports. All this does is guarantee rice inflation.

Trump visits Malaysia. Look at him, dancing and waving flags.

Not so fun fact: Trump is the third US president in history to visit Malaysia. The others were Lyndon B Johnson, Barrack Obama.

They always do this, every time the country is in deep shit, they always bail over seas. This meeting is an excuse not to have to answer the simple question amongst others, ‘why is my groceries three times as expensive as before’ and also, ‘ why on earth am I not getting paid right now when my profession is literally keeping the nation from breaking down’ In other worlds, Trump a baby who wants it easy and doesn’t want to take responsibility, you know in ancient times, people like him get strung up and hung for this kind of treasonous behavior or worse given how badly he is doing

My guy, your location says you live in Canada. By your own logic, you shouldn’t be living in Canada and you make up a bad immigrants. I would also guess that you live in a Chinese bubble without meaninfully interacting with people outside of it. Why do all these ultra hardcore nationalists always live in the west? You know it inside that there‘s a certain „coolness“ (for the lack of a better word) in the west. That‘s why you continue to live here. I know a Chinese girl like this. Every second sentence out of her mouth is how great China is and yet she lives in Germany. In her case, she would have to deal with traditional culture bs if she lives in China, especially from her parents. So many people love whining about the west and western culture and yet live here out of many different reasons.

In the US, it’s called freedom of speech. Germany isn’t the US so maybe you guys should kick her out to show the world that the West doesn’t care about the freedom they bomb other countries for denying.

I fully agree that a country should only accept people who are willing to learn from their surrounding and adapt to the local culture instead of being hung up on their archaic traditions.

At the same time I believe that with steadily rising standards of living and with new advancements in technology, especially in transportation, globalization will march on and would become an even bigger force. It‘s only a matter of which cultures would in the end dominate the world since global culture would eventually homogenize. When a culture is perceived as „cool“, people tend to adapt it. That‘s how American culture became wildly popular around the world. You take a middle class person in early 2000s almost anywhere in the world bar for ultra-conservative societies, he/she would ve compatible with the American culture and would have made an excellent citizen there. Growing up in early 2000s you had TV shows, movies with leads belonging to all sorts of ethnicites. Yet, none of the nonsense talking points of „woke“, culture wars etc. existed back then.

The problem that you see nowadays on one hand is caused by a demographic that got rich all of a sudden and who are not exactly used to their higher standards of living. For example, I had an Indian guy tell me that even Pasta is a luxury where he comes from. It takes time for these people to get used to a modern lifestyle and just like that the current trend of immigration phobia would disappear as these poeple learn to behave better. On the other hand you have ultra-conservative ideologies coming from the MENA region which I think would also disappear as it happened in Iran. So long story short, IMO these problem are temporary. One should be careful before making long term doom and gloom predictions based on the curent state of affairs.

Now when it comes to China, it now has an unique opportunity to be one of the most dominant cultures across the globe just like American culture and it‘s beyong me, why anyone would miss up on that opportunity.

You have poor understanding of that region. Iran does not set the standards. Syrian government collapsed last year Russians safely airlifted several thousands Iranian and Iranians aligned people to Iran. They lacked self awareness.
Putin said every thing changes except one thing. what is that? i posted link few days ago.
Gulf Monarchies are one of highest spender on AI and I presume Putin have them in mind when in complicated way saying AI built on Russian traditions which can only be effective by increasing tourist interactions with Muslims to create a data inside Russia.
This leadership over Europe is not some thing hidden and it will automatically include many other places.
