Leave alone the little countries.. we can discuss that if this thread continues longer. But as for china and india, the values change drastically once we change to apples to apples, rather than dollars to dollars. And this when china is concentrating on "digging" and "digging" so that it can...

Gutter-dung always smell. nobody mentioned India so far in this thread, but how could Gutter-dung hold back his obsession. :omghaha:

Indian houshold are estimated to hold $ 1 Trillion worth of gold. That's $ 1000 per capita, alone. That said, Africa is a continent rich in mineral resources (and way too larger than India, in any case), but only 80% of the population of India. so, leave alone India, Africa will be richer...

Pay the import duty (I believe 10% now) and buy Gold. There is no "other" policy. Are you saying that Indians are suffering because of scarcity of Gold .. so much that smugglers will be making all the effort to ensure that Gold reaches the people of India. Oh God .. I didn't get my daily...

That's the puzzling part. The question should not be "why"?" but "was it hit the hardest?" It was a 2-3 point reduction in economic growth rate, which is shared across most emerging market countries (needless to add, including prc as well). There are going to be quite a few claimants who...

^^^ It wasn't Russia ..... the country which this bomb was intended to protect was USSR. And the bomb could not save its demise.

Great news that lose of life has been minimal .. essentially nil. Hope the follow up restoration will be done equally well, so that people can return to their normal lives soon.

If so, that were very progressive thoughts of Lee Kuan Yew. But I don't understand, that with such views why Singapore identifies its own citizens by race or ethnicity? They should be all Singaporeans, no. In fact, I learnt that they also expect all foreigners to identify themselves by races...

china should not be afraid of another Japanese invasion, since USA is there to save china. instead wasting money on "j-10" type useless things, it should look to feed its dying people and improve their lives. china should ban coal mining till they learn safe mining practices.

Actually, it's china which is illegally occupying independent cultures which share nothing with china, which self-defined it's border with the "great wall of china". See this map, which clearly shows independent countries of Tibet, East Turkestan, Inner Mongolia and Manchuria, prior to WW2:

Hong-Poo demonstrates the low standard of education and IQ in Pee-Aar-Cee. :omghaha:

It not just seems.. it is the truth. Who needs Rafale to counter a "J-10" ... leave alone F-16s or missile-less JF-17s. It was always about the technology. And these negotiations will take some time, and will close only when (and if) we see a good deal. The funny thing is that while it...

The carrier is known as Hong-Poo class of carriers.

The above graphic I posted show that only 12% of foreigners are on EP. Rest are lowly jobs - construction workers, maid servants etc. What education did you get in Singapore, and do you find hard to find a job (commensurate with your education) inspite of being a citizen?

Link: Composition of Singapore's Total Population So, the high earning foreigners are quite few (12%), low earners are the major part of non-resident immigrant population.

What is the meaning of 3rd generation Singaporean? Singapore has a few 'ethnic' classifications - Chinese, Malay, Indian (not sure if any thing else). Are you recognized as an ethnic Pakistani or simply Indian in Singapore? - Since 3 generations back, Pakistan and India were the same...

:wink: ; - ) data from pee-aar-cee is of very high quality. :wink:

Interesting numbers: So, as of now: India has 213 million undernourished. China has 158 million undernourished. Hope the food security law gets our 213 million out of undernourishment. At the very least, we let china have the no. 1 position from their current no. 2. For that we need to get...

oops. I never realized that. haha.

congratulations on the achievement. what's the final stage?
