This RCEP FTA is a rival to the American-led TPP.
TPP excludes China. RCEP excludes America. :lol:
China vs US rivalry is all over the place in every area whether it is economic, military, politics, corporate brands, Olympics games, currency, etc.
Most of the western expats living in Hong Kong look down on Chinese people as inferior humans. Infact Hong Kong is a breeding ground for the most anti-China western expats. Hong Kong also hosts western NGOs and other media that spew anti-China BS. The Hong Kong government don't do anything to...
PHNOM PENH, Cambodia - Southeast Asian nations will launch talks this week for a giant free trade pact with China, Japan, India and other neighbors aimed at easing the region's reliance on the struggling West.

With the emergence of China as the world's second-largest economy and its concomitant renewal of (comparatively minor) territorial claims in the East China Sea and South China Sea, the stage is set for a U.S.-Chinese confrontation of a nature and on a scale not seen since before the Sino-Soviet...
I believe it is currently using the less powerful but domestically-made WZ-9 engine (1000kw). But it will be replaced with the more powerful WZ-16 engine (1500kw).

Morality is a useless thing imo. You should do everything to win. I played sport, when you are in the heat of battle, you do anything to win.
It's like a football player taking a dive to get a foul. Some don't like it, but I don't care, I think morality is a bunch politically correct nonsense.
Why did they make it look so obvious, should have been more subtle and no on would notice. Good plan, but bad execution. Just make the match close and subtlety miss the crucial points.
If we won, we would still only have one team in the final due to both our teams meeting in semifinal, we...
