Just some wishful thinking hypothesis to test what the opponent's next move. Given Ma is very reluctant to make any moves even on this free for all situation until recently due to internal pressures.
Even western media opined Taiwan has a better claim on Diaoyu than anyone else but She has he...
(for the bold part) As we speak Taiwan is pouring cements to extend the runway in Taiping Island plus littoral warships and fighter jets. Next step will be more jets and regular warships from her inventory which will be replaced by more purchase from the US. Is and will Vietnam doing anything...
You miss my point.
Taiping Island lies right in the middle between Hainan Island of China and the Malacca Strait. China station some military jets and some warships in the island instead of using an AC, which cost much more. These jets can fly from Hainan to Taiping without refuel and from...
Taiping Island, half way between Hainan and the Malacca Strait, what a strategic location. I think soon or later China is going to negotiate with Taiwan to buy the island to build a land based carrier group to keep a watchful eye on the Malacca Strait. What's your though on that?
It seems your boys back home need some quality professional guidance and leadership in the world of geopolitics. Perhaps it's time for you to go home and take up another profession, given too much of those 'hot pants' ;):no: is no good for a man of you age, that benefits everyone involved.
Until recently, the government of the Taiwan-based Republic of China (ROC) had remained fairly quiet regarding heightened tensions in the South China Sea. This silence has now been broken, with important diplomatic and strategic implications for the relevant disputant nations and concerned world...
I was debating with an Indian-American poster yesterday where he insisted population size is not a criteria for China to catchup to the US in 2016 Olympic on medal counts. Now we have a gentleman here insists we have so many medals because of our population.
Sign, how can we win when...
It's not the way you think it, after all, this is not the iron curtain age in the 60s. Although I don't have any English sources but I can assure you it's not the way the western media exaggerate the cruelty of the training processes. Let's not forget these young athletes are spotted and...
Basically it's more or less the same system with different mode.
In the US it's the educational institutions that train these athletes from as early as junior high school as extra curriculum activities and soon enough the talent ones will be courted heavily by college scouts. Once they are...
Actually China surpasses my original estimate of around 35 golds and 80 medals over all. Congratulations to our athletes that made us proud!
One can not compare the successes we had in 2008 Beijing Olympic where we sent over 600 athletes with huge home court advantages. The adrenaline are...
Some plan hey! Selling all those outdated surpluses is a great way of doing business and some poor nations would go for it if you give them credits on lenient term.
I bet a Korea General would be chosen to leader the pact too.
Is that so, no wonder they sound like robots in unison chanting the same hates, same war glories and even their posts are similar. They even gang up on opponent posters and bombard them with the same phony maps, unintelligible references and the same chanting arguments, over and over repeatedly...
Sometimes fear and jealousy can also produce negative sentiments.
@ Boson
Certainly Chinese have no love for the US government. It's the old myth of the 'Gold mountain' that we long for. A vast unpopulated promise land with golden opportunities in contrast to China, an overpopulated land full...
Of course the Dai Viet ultra nationalists here in the forum probably deny any Chinese helps or the 'China Factor' in the Vietnam war. But then it's natural for them. They only remember the bad things China did to them and claim memory lost on the good deeds. It's the same when they boast and...
