Sri Lanka allows Chinese submarine to dock
Chinese Defense Ministry said it is nothing unusual for its naval vessel to dock at Colombo port despite concerns raised by India.

Sri Lanka allowed a Chinese submarine to dock at its Colombo harbor in Colombo on Sunday, despite concerns raised by India about China's warming relations with the Indian Ocean island nation. Another Chinese submarine had called at the same port ahead of Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to South Asia seven weeks ago.

"This is nothing unusual. Since 2010, 230 warships have called at Colombo port from various countries on goodwill visits and for refueling and crew refreshment," said Sri Lankan navy spokesman Kosala Warnakulasuriya.

"It is an international common practice for navy submarine to stop for refueling and crew refreshment at an oversea port," according to an official from China's Defense Ministry.

The official said the Chinese submarine docks during its escort missions in the Gulf of Aden and waters off Somalia.

However, India has already raised concerns over the frequency of Chinese visits to Sri Lanka, Indian officials said.

China's ghost cities aren't going away. Even as Beijing wants local governments to move away from GDP targeting and is more focused on developing social housing, wasteful construction still plagues China.

A report from CLSA's Nicole Wong,cited by the WSJ, found that the problem lies in the excess supply in China's third-tier cities. Vacancy rates for homes constructed in the past five years currently stand at 15%, but are projected to rise over 20% around 2016-2017, according to Wong.

Rob Schmitz, China correspondent for Marketplace/American Public Media recently ran a piece titled "China's economic boom leaves a trail of ghost cities." We reached out to Schmitz to get an update on Kangbashi and Yujiapu.

Schmitz points out that one of they key differences between visiting Ordos now, and back in October 2010 was people's attitudes. Back in 2010, residents of Kangbashi (new city of Ordos) were defensive when the place was dubbed a ghost city, but now many had come to accept it.

Schmitz said that many people had abandoned these ghost cities and moved back home. He also points out what China bulls like Stephen Roach have got wrong, when they argue that these cities tie into China's urbanization plan.
