Here is the map of the Chinese Empire in the eyes of the almighty British Empire in 1910. It was less than 1/3 of what is today. Smaller than "Indian Empire" (in light pink). We must be the "most peace loving people" (the name they crown to Tibetans nowadays) in the world back then:sarcastic:
Look, Japan wants to be seen as a winner and India wants to be seen a fair host. I say let them have it. Because there is a such a thing as a lose-lose business. There is no question the Japanese option is the more expansive one. How else can you explain why Indonesia picked us??? And why...
Bravo! China is quickly becoming the world leader in super computing and quantum computing.
To haters I have to say: No worries, you may continue to take comfort in believing we "copied and pasted" all that easy stuff:D
Such is life cnleio! You made the decision based what you knew at the time. Most probably you'd do it again had you have the same chance. I made "wrong" choices all the time and ended up working for "losers". My luck finally turned at my last try. And, trust me, the "success" isn't as...
I don't get these "conclusions" at all. LOL. China by no means has an unstoppable force. And we all know the destructive capability of the mighty U.S. of A. What China is trying to accomplish is to show to all parties involved the potential cost of Taiwan declaring independence. China draws...
Wrong. More like China does NOT want be threatened by the U.S. using Taiwan as a military base. If Taiwan is allowed to be an independent country, it'd allow the U.S. to build a military base there just as Japan, South Korea and the Philippines have. And that is not acceptable to China.

But Pakistani don't brag like the Indians though. Indian journalists, economists and politicians can never stop talking about India beating China in this and that. Come to think of it, who needs to do any work when the economy can be built by just running their mouths? :lol:
The most powerful weapon against radicals like the ISIS is media control. This may sound cruel but, think about it, what if there is no media report at all for any of the random killings by the Jihadists? No matter how many people they killed or how big a destruction they created, no one will...
7.4% is a good. But, China's average growth rate for over 30 years is over 10%. So to pass us you have to grow even faster, and also sustain it for a long, long time. Which begs the question: just how do you achieve the growth of such magnitude?
China has built its wealth by being the...
Cool, I suppose... ?
Breakthrough technologies as such, if true, could give the country who invented them huge advantage. Why the heck do they publish it??? I'm no expert in this field. But the only reason for them to publish these findings is that this thing is still a theory, a...
Not enough. We have yet to use the biggest weapon that no other country has: media control. I mean if I were a policy maker I'd mute the stories of all terrorist attacks. These people are not afraid of death. They are just looking for attention. They want to spread their ideology by...
Actually I wonder why airplanes still use the so called "black box"? Why can't the flight data be transmitted to base external devices such as satellites or base stations? That way you will never have to look for the black box which sometimes can't even be found. In this day and age where...
We "threaten" you? Yeah so typical. How did we threaten you when you send your warship to our doorsteps uninvited?
But you haven't done jack. Did I miss anything?:sarcastic:
Put it this way. If you can't stop us from building the islands, all you're doing is puffing hot air, or propaganda...
Isn't the patrol in the name of "Freedom of Navigation" a propaganda itself?
"No, it's not. We actually achieved more than the effect of a public stunt!" Seriously?
What an irony:usflag:
