How the hell did you end up in Appalachia?? Lol are you in West Virginia??

SF Bay Area - Prices are astronomical. If you want to live in the desirable areas. The city is crime ridden. Los Angeles - same as above San Diego - Probably the best big city in CA in terms of crime and disorder but still not great in the city center. Prices slightly more reasonable in the...

That’s great for him. If you plan to own property in these areas, expect to pay $1 million for a 3 bedroom 2 bath condo.

For what you described, you will have to pay top dollar. Places like the wealthy suburbs of Southern California in the US, where you have access to beautiful beaches, a mediterranean climate, close to big cities but having safe neighborhoods. Prices are astronomical. If you're rich, I'd...

Why? Chinese EVs are way more advanced than Germany. It's actually Germany that needs to copy from China nowadays. This is where Western perceptions are really out of date and not concurrent with the times.

That is true to an extent. Part of it is that many of them are engineers and are old fogeys who just do not understand the power of media and image building. This is why South Korea excels in image building and is able to get all of Asia and much of the world worshiping their pop culture...

The problem is that too many Chinese like you think that pop culture is nothing more than a superficial pursuit, when in reality, the more powerful a country's pop culture, the more influence and goodwill that country can buy on the world stage. China is actually doing a lot to help other...

Honestly if the US simply respected china’s sovereignty issues, there would really be no reason the countries would be enemies. Economic rivals, yes but definitely not hostile enemies.

Yeah obviously but it makes me wonder why the Chinese govt is still intent on keeping China’s media back. China’s leaders are really out of touch when it comes to understanding the power of pop culture, entertainment and the importance of messaging and brand building. I give them an F.

In terms of having an efficient, clean, competent and authoritarian political system, China has certainly been taking a lot of cues from Singapore and has done so since the 90s.

I don’t see many Americans planning to pick up a “Red Flag” (Hongqi) anytime soon. Even if the tech is up there, the politics will destroy their chances here.

It won’t mean anything unless Pakistan undergoes significant industrialization and development society wide.

China still sucks at soft power and media power. A lot of it has to do with over regulation from the government. It needs to take some cues from South Korea on how to build its media and improve its branding.

The US will be ok. Not Britain though. They are two very different countries. The US is a continental sized country that is self sustaining in terms of its resources and is still a great destination for the best talents all over the world. The US also features innumerable cities and regions for...

There aren’t 10,000 Chinese at the border, at most it might be a couple hundred but the issue is blown out of proportion by the media. The actual numbers of Chinese going overseas is minuscule compared to the enormity of its population. Even If there are some Chinese still going to Britain, it’s...

I don't think it will matter at this point. The UK is going downhill regardless of what it does.

Well, so far, China has been succeeding by implementing that system. Or at least aiming to implement that system. Whether it will get to Singapore's standard nationwide long term remains to be seen. Well, China razed and rebuilt huge swathes of their cities. That's something the US can't do...

Shandong people are the germanics of Asia

Definitely one of the most interesting regions of the US, with an authentic generations long local culture.
