China is no match to the US Air Force in the skies: USAF Sec Kendall

[gambit]

Lol, if you said is factual do did I.

There is no 'if' about what I said of the Parade Line Army (PLA). Boys are called 'little emperors' because they are doted on by their parents. And selling ranks and assignments are proven scandals.

Do you train your parade soldiers and "little emperors" this way?

You're a big coper. Most of the soldiers of the PLA are from poorer regions, where it is common to see families with two or three children.

CPEC energy supply is just another back door supply for china in the future, of course pakistan also benefits for all the developments it bring to the country. But, china will not expect that CPEC line to be safe and used by china in times of war or clash with the us. The logic is if us is able to blockade the suppy line through malacca strait, sure they will be able to cut off the supply line through gwader to china. The strategic value of gwader supply line to china is over stated, actually pakistan has more to gain from the development.

I disagree. I think cpec is a calculated move by chins for their own survival. I don't see anything positive in cpec. Debt destroyed Pakistan.china knows that Pakistan is the only easy route. They want to bring war directly on our soil. During any war scenario, allies will attack directly on Pakistan because Chinese will make gwadar a military port. China is doing all this for their own survival. Pakistan is behaving like a fool and why not! We love easy money.

If you are that paranoid about chinas evil intention on CPEC for pakistan and that the project will destroy pakistan, then by all the means ask your gov to stop it. Currently, pakistans constitution doesnt allow foreign troops to station in pakistan or make pakistani soil a foreign military base, you are talking nonsense. You are more talking like a hindutva looking from india and US interests. Chinas survival doesnt depend on gwader supply line in the future, period, but has something to do with the secure russian supply lines, but not entirely. China can find its means for survival such as mutual assured destruction of US in times of war, dont belittle chinas capability.

The Parade Line Army (PLA) is filled with 'little emperors'. Many, not all, of its line officers paid for their ranks and assignments. They lead enlisted who are more interested in doing their mandatory minimum time than seeing military life as a worthwhile pursuit. As such, China is hesitant to get into a real fight.

You are nobody and your personal opinion has no value.

US Top General considers that PLA as a great power.

Be careful what you wish for. You’ll end up getting humiliated just like the Russians are now in Ukraine.

that's not your reputation from what Afghanistan told us.

Since this is air force versus air force, most likely your air force will lose again.

meanwhile USAF has total of 1400 fighter jets in total, but PLAAF has 1800+ fighter jets, and US pacific command has said USAF at the moment is lacking 12 fighter jets squadrons to cover USAF gap in the pacific???

Please speak from a reality-based point of view. smh

I found most of the American Viet are ridiculous hatred toward China even in sport. There some Viets in facebook mocking a Chinese fighter in a One Championship MMA event against one Vietnam American claiming the Chinese fighter is no match even before the fight but the outcome came out very embarrassing to them.

I think those who can predict future events are more powerful people than us. You can call them Think tanks or experts. China has realized the importance of Pakistan because SCS has no guarantees. In a way, they are using us but pretend like they are helping. They are actually helping us financially but this is like peanuts as compared to the real game. China will make Gwadar a military base. It's only about time. Pakistan is too much involved in china and later, Pakistan might not find any escape. The only way might be to say yes to china but think about the United States and its allies. There are serious problems but our people love money so China is like a machine of money for Pakistan.
Let's assume a hypothetical scenario. The United States and its allies block SCS. The only way left would be Pakistan. China will transport military, weapons through Pakistan. Do you think the United States and its allies will allow them to use Pakistan so that they can cut off or probably encircle the United states navy? We must not select sides. I say the United States camp is far better than the Chinese camp. The problem is we aren't in a situation to say NO to china. China can use many cards against us as well. We must think about this problem carefully. Don't lean too much on one side.

Unfortunately some Pakistanis are misguided by the Indian and Western propaganda against China.

CPEC is immensely important project for Pakistan and CPEC brings endless opportunities to Pakistan.

China invested in CPEC and Pakistan when all other powers sanctioned Pakistan or stayed away.

Long live China-Pakistan friendship.

You can choose to be in the US camp by all the means if you believe they are not going to betray you people in times of crises as they have done before. If US navy is able to blockade the sea lines in SCS where chinese navy presence is very much strong, then US navy is sure going to be able to cut off the chinese sea lines to Gwader in the Arabian sea and Mideast where they are strong. The real relatively safe energy supply routes are the ones from russia and other central asian countries directly connecting to northern and northwest china. Thats why russia is strategically very important to china and also SCO is also very important to china. But, pakistan is also strategically important to china as a trusted friend and good neighbour for more than 70 years.

By the way, its public knowledge now that it was pakistani gov under Mushriff asked the chinese gov to help pakistan develop Gwader port, its not a chinese evil trap as you like to believe looking through the indian and US prism.


Quotes from American studies on CPEC:

• The development of Gwadar was as much of a priority for Pakistan as it was for China. Although China’s strategic calculations are often emphasized, the port of Gwadar was a Pakistani-initiated proposal in the early 2000s that was only later rebranded as a BRI project after 2013. All Pakistani governments over the past twenty years, both military- and civilian-led, have encouraged China’s involvement in Gwadar, while Beijing in turn sees the port as a strategic access point to the Indian Ocean.
• Energy projects were initially prioritized by Pakistan’s choice. The majority of first-phase CPEC investments went to energy projects, most notably coal power plants. This preference for coal was part of Pakistan’s desire to diversify the composition of its energy markets. This goal was also in line with Sharif’s and his party’s preference for energy projects to end the country’s electricity shortages in order to secure a 2018 reelection bid.

How China and Pakistan Negotiate

Many observers view Pakistan as a test case for China’s assertive overseas expansion plans. But sometimes, it is Chinese players who have had to adapt to Islamabad’s realities.

I suspect China did not invest in CPEC but its banks lent money to Pakistan for the Project.

first tranche of loans totaled $19 billion, outa which 10 billion was spent on the project while $4.5 billion was stolen by the fat chor another $4.5 billion was used to bribe the lenders.

Where you got all these secret info, you are not a pakistani ?

it has been an open secret since 2018. it was the last straw that broke the camel's back. it was the prime reason for the removal of the fat pandit and eventual replacement with the "mein nahin chhoroon ga" delusional moron.

instead of helping to recover the monies, fronting prosecutions etc. the dipshit declared verbal war on China. then started dreaming of becoming the emperor of OIC.
