Nice to see you
Hello
More of a reader than contributor, I left China when i was a toddler and have been detached from the motherland for most my life. However i have always been patriotic despite not knowing much about my country, i am here to learn more so I can better educate myself and other people who have a deep misunderstanding of China. Although my degree is not STEM or technology, i really want to learn about how China is progressing and how far they have come.

Greetings all!
I'm from the UK. I'm kind of surprised there are even places on the English-speaking side of the net where there are proper debates regarding China without it all devolving into a China bashing spree. I've poked my head around and seen some good discussions already, so I think I'll stick around for a while. This also seems like a good place to get breaking news updates on Chinese development (in all fields) without the biased lenses of mass media.
You could say I'm a bit of a sinophile. I've toured China extensively (mostly sticking to the cities though) so I've got some first hand experiences of the Eastern world. These have helped me categorically reject Western mass media's recent depiction (or put more simply, demonisation) of China. I have a strong interest in Chinese culture and history, particularly its influence and relationships with other nations and civilisations.
My Mandarin is shaky and as such my relationship with China is more like an outsider peeking in, but I am interested in learning more. Hopefully, one day, I'll be able to fully understand China.
I'm not very versed in the specifics of advanced technology. My interest is more to do with observing and understanding the geopolitics at play in these trying times, and how it can be linked with society, culture and history. I hope to have fruitful discussions and meaningful debates!

Greetings,
I've been lurking here for a while so I figured it's about time I introduce myself.
I'm Jon, I'm from Mexico, and I've been very interested in China for a while now, not only regarding its armed forces, but also issues related to economics, technology, space exploration, society, culture, etc. In fact, I'm writing my bachelor's thesis on the China - United States geopolitical conflict and its effects on globalisation.
I found this forum a few months ago and has since become one of my main sources about everything regarding China. I gotta say it's very refreshing to see there's a lot of information and discussions that stray from the Cold War, sinophobic content the Western propaganda machine bombards us with day in and out. And coming from a developing country myself, it's been very inspiring to see how a previously impoverished nation that endured the worst of imperialism has been able to rise, find its own path, and provide the Chinese population with an ever increasing standard of living. It gives me hope for the future and I sincerely hope China continues to thrive.
Looking forward to discuss with you all!

Howdy,
Born in Beijing, went to US when young, studies and worked in Texas until 2005, returned to China after that.
EE background, technologically helped a Chinese company's product to go from nothing to number three in the world. Now working at a start up.
Been to Chinese military forum and 世界军事论坛 since the 90‘s(those two seems to be blocked in China), still check those forums out when visiting the US. There are links there to this forum, so I came here sometimes as well. Now, after all those years browsing, I set up an account.

I always preferred Botticelli.
I demand visual evidence of this assertion. As they say on the internet, "pics or it didn't happen."
I heard he published a cow dung dessert cookbook
Hello. This is my first post. I am a Swedish citizen that has an amateur's interest in these matters. I've tried various defense forums but most of them get swamped by low quality trolls which re-iterate Western MSM propaganda so it is hard to maintain a decent level of debate. I've been reading up on China's defense sector lately and thought that this is likely a good place to go to read up and debate these issues with a sane crowd.
Cheers!
Cheers!
Welcome but don't think this is the appropriate thread for this sort of post.
While some bhakts probably are that blindly devoted to Modi (and the superstitions behind urine in general), I suspect this particular Sam Sinai is taking the piss and trolling.
