blouinbeatbusiness/2015/03/20/ties-with-vietnam-australia-up-canada-down/ Well it is unfortunate what happen with Canada, I think it is about time the oversea Viet need to let it go already. Even if they are anti communist, so what, Vietnam will change for the better. When Le Duan and his...

Well, the military budget was cut. I was thinking about joining the arm-force to pay school. But I recall there was a period of down sizing. But wait and see, if the democrats lost the 2016 election. Our government will have a gigantic war boner. I still think Yemen or some other middle...

Speaking as an Americans, during presidential elections, it does seemed "tough on china" rhetoric is huge among the conservatives. But that is just rhetoric, because the details are fuzzy. Beside the corporations ran thing, and the corporations love doing business with the Chinese. At the end...

Well, we improved greatly in the past years. When the first kilo subs arrive in Vietnam, all the articles are saying we having the best modern fleet in Southeast Asia. But since then, everyone are buying subs. I wonder how that will affect things. Also, do we have capitals to keep on...

According to globalfire (which is kinda weird website), I believe we move up a few spots since last year (can't remember how many spots exactly). I am asking as an ignorant person, in term of navy among the ASEAN, where do we rank currently seeing that everyone is buying up on submarines and...

As a Viet, I always impressed with China. I recalled watching a documentary when the Gorges Dam was build (or some other documentary), the chinese population had a lot of faith in their government (and actually pretty content). And you guys are really really smart by diversify. People always...

I look at your past posts on this thread. It is pretty much toilet materials. Hmm the best point from you probably was "Indonesians should shut the **** up about this topics." But that you, I wouldn't go that route and I do think Indonesian should play a greater role in the area. But do...

=================================================== PEOPLE I am new, I don't know how to send private messages. Anyhow, Grand Historian should send me a private message or something, I want your opinions on a few things just for the sake of my own education...

Same shit as manifest destiny. Even if I give you China is Qin and Han. The current China encompassed still many ethnic kingdoms since the Han dynasty. China currently probably 2 to 3 times Han dynasty. There are separatist movements since the Han dynasty and there are still now. Don't...

Edit: can't post freaking links.... This is not because China is benevolent but rather I believe there are 2 main factors. China always had northern aggressors whether it is the Xiongnu, to Khitan, to Mongolians. to Jurchens/Manchurians. The second factor is that it is hard to reign over...

Very far... In fact I am against the neocon. In fact, I don't think the USA is a moral agent in the past nor it is now. Only stupid people think we go to the Middle East to spread Democracy, or going to the Philippines to Christianize the heathens. If you want my opinions on that sure. But...

It isn't stupid. I asking how far is China going to take it. As a viet, I wouldn't know. I am hoping for some Chinese insider. Because the information I gather is all over the place. Before Vietnam War, China had an expansionism attitude. Then it had the attitude of doing businesses with...

As a viet nationalist, it is rather pointless to argue whose e-penis (nationalism/national pride) is bigger. I want to ask all the Chinese here. What is China's end goal? Chinese-spoke people kept taking that it want peace and that China's rise in power is not a threat to anyone. Is that a...
