LOL. Good catch. I didn't notice it before either. Naw naw naw. Remember what you guys said. Pee pee pee money no good. Looks who's resorting to pee pee pee now :sarcastic:.

Give it a rest dude. It's getting boring now.

The rail makes sense when shipping goods between Western China/CA/East Europe. But from the coastal areas? I don't think it will go beyond high value items. There is also the geostrategic factor. A land route bypassing SCS may come in handy. But such a scenario where China's sea trade routes...

Thanks for the clarification. I think I get it now. The primary purpose is to provide a trade conduit (subsidized if necessary) between China and central Asia. Reaching Europe is secondary.

This article for example - http://www.scmp.com/week-asia/business/article/2089507/puffing-across-one-belt-one-road-rail-route-nowhere "Eastbound marine container rates from Europe to China shot up at the beginning of this month. The week our train left, it cost slightly more than US$1,500 to...

Fascinating!

Good post. But a few things. What gave you that idea? 3-5 days are trivial. I am expecting few weeks at least. What? China has long ceded this area. The dispute between China and Russia was about the exact alignment of the line - south bank or thalweg of the Amur and Ussuri rivers. A minor...

The part you missed is that on the Indian side a similar process happened. In Punjab, HP, Haryana, the states located right next to Pakistan had about 25% Muslims before 1947. Today it's about 5%. A lot went from UP as well. This massive drop in % didn't happen via conversion over the following...
