My position on GDP has always been such that it is just one of the fuzzy economical indicators that provides us a broad sense of the level of economical activities. Instead of looking at it as a point, I tend to view it as an estimate with a +/- x% interval that the “true” value may sit. And the...

Interesting, didn’t know that.

Good post. Please be advised that there is a newer type-901 ship in PLAN service, which are 45,000 ton displacement. 2 ships are currently in service. https://www.naval-technology.com/projects/type-901-class-fleet-replenishment-ship/

Chinese cannot even afford to eat tea eggs, how can they swim?:woot::woot: You make my abs hurt...:rofl:

This topic reminds me one of my favorite movies on education: Hindi Medium. Finding so much commonalities between Indian and Chinese mindsets wrt education. Rah and wife were lectured by the consultant about the consequence of not getting into a good school. Raj gets up early with...

this missile designed to take on much larger ships and should explore right inside in a 20k+ tonner. the target ship is too small to trap it. Testing on a large ship would be a bit luxury. :-) Freakish firepower! ################# there are 8 replenishedment ships - types 903a in PLAN.

Totally agreed. The success of the economical reform in the 80s would not be as successful without the fundamentals that was built solidly in the first decades of the republic, particularly in education and healthcare. These early measures have turned China from a feudal nation into a...

Lol, Nilgiri has had many balanced (positive leaning actually) discussion on China related topics and offered many thoughtful insights into China’s economic issues. He backs his discussions up with data and research. If some members make negative comments about China without any evidence or...

It all started from the trolling post #3 by Han Patriot.

Hey man don’t need to belittle others like that. Kindly discuss things respectfully. LOL, good one mate. I was suspicious about that too. Tbh I don’t even know what bhai means. The amount of cited scientific publications speaks for the quality of China’s high education.

I must admit that we are so grateful that he allowes China to keep going for another 4 years. Gordon Chang is a lot meaner.

These days 20-25 RMB for haircut is rare without a membership, in a tier 2 city like Wuhan or HangZhou, where I stay a bit when I go back. You can find some at this price range or even cheaper ones but it is not easy. They all brand and decorate their shops as hair salon or a “design” workshop...

This has become a big news in this part of the world. Just come across this funny advert from Hell pizza, apparently referring to their excuses of refusing paying food bills by finding hair or ant, lol.

By: Geoff Ziezulewicz   4 days ago A scathing internal Navy probe into the 2017 collision that drowned seven sailors on the guided-missile destroyer Fitzgerald details a far longer list of problems plaguing the vessel, its crew and superior commands than the service has publicly admitted...

What I mean by that is for a relatively mature market, replacing the vehicle with EV widespreadly would be difficult because the existing vehicles have a lot life left and owners cannot just retire their vehicles and buy new EV. So the transition from to EV is going to be a long process. Given...

Thanks man. Hopefully the space vegetable while having higher yield doesn’t lose the original taste. Many veggie and fruit in the western countries, from intensive farming, do not have the true taste. Is that the same in Canada?

Keep smiling while they are leaving
