That is extemely sad. I hope india's mental hospitals are better today and nolonger incarcerate innocent people.

The transcript speaks of the war as a just war of asian emancipation. IMO, not the best tone for reconcilliation with Asia.

The Chinese leaders in 1972 were soft on Japan for many reasons. 1. China had been internationally isolated by both superpower camps, and seek Japan's help to integrate into the world both economically and politically. 2. Japan was no longer seen as an existential threat to China. It was clear...

Article makes a good point but it is rather biased. It claims that China's history problem lies entirely at fault with the CCP, when there is in fact a mountain of other factors. -US being soft on Japan due to the nature of the cold war. -Statements and action from Japan's politicians...

I think China has been pretty reserved. The CCP is in quite a dilemma in SCS. The CCP is doing as much as it can to ease tension in SCS, but at the same time, they have to appear tough for domestic audience. IMO, the only way to deescalate tension is to let the Chinese side "save face." Let...

Does China even have 100 main combat ships? Or is it going to be a few principle ships along with fast attack crafts and support ships?

That's a bit oversimplified imo, the distinction between mainlanders and taiwanese. The KMT were originally from mainland and ruled Taiwan for 70 years now. In 1945, they brought 2 million mainlanders over to an island with 6 million people. If you consider KMT part of mainland, then it is...

China is the main cultural influence of Vietnam. It has been this way since ancient times. Vietnam's pop culture are all stolen from Mainland, HK, Taiwan and put into Vietnamese dub.

When you speak of "Taiwanese" people, it seems like you often mistaken 2 different group of people. The first being those who were already in taiwan prior to 1895, the original Taiwanese people from Hokkien China that Japan colonialized, and then there are the Taiwanese that arrived after 1945...

Market is driven by fear and greed. When others are fearful, you should be greedy. Everyone is scared to invest in Chinese stocks, so the logic is you should buy. But you need quite the iron stomach for that.

US is not going to risk a war with China, especially if a Democrat is in the house. Japan will also not intervene. The thousands of short ranged missiles China has is too risky and destabilizing.

Stop asking retarded questions. In terms of geography, population, history, politics, ect, these two countries are completely different. It is like comparing apples with triangles.

Smart PR move by Mitsubishi. 100,000 yuan is roughly 16,000 dollars. Improve PR with small monetary loss.

Well opium war killed less than 10000. Brit didn't attack civilians or anything. It is far different from second sino japanese war which killed 10 to 20 million, mostly civilians. There is a reason why chinese are far more bitter at japan than britIan. Afterall, britian built hong kong from a...

Wars are often not based on maturity.

Interesting article but seems rather biased. How do they really know that Taiwan's pilots are far better trained than Mainland's pilots? Also, air power or not, I do not believe Taiwan will declare independence and I do not believe any external power will want to face the wrath of Beijing...

I have read somewhere that Japan is slow on east china sea gas field because it is rather uneconomical for Japan. There are far too little resource, and the pipe line will have to travel far to reach Japan. Japan actually wanted China to just share some profit, but China doesn't really see a...

Things like stability helps. Can't develop if terrorists keep bombing road and factories. One of the main reason why Japan was able to develop and China couldn't is Japan was much more stable domestically.

I doubt we will see a revolution. Judging by Chinese people on the internet, it is just not part of the culture there. You might get a few protest here and there in Hong Kong and Taiwan, but overall, it is pretty quiet.

Honestly, China collapse will be a disaster for everyone, including Turkey. The stock market is in trouble, China's economy is in rough shape, but I have confidence that the Chinese economy will recover, afterall, there were much worse economic bubbles in the past, such as the dot com bubble...
