CN235 was designed, developed, and manufactured together with PT DI of Indonesia. The workshare of each plane produced is at least 50-50 between EADS/Airbus and Indonesia. So planes bought from Airbus by the US were also partially produced in Indonesia.

Err, that's not a thought nor was it an opinion, that is a fact. You took Philippines as an example, yet ASEAN consisted of countries like Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia that basically have direct access and multiple major ports along the routes of Strait of Malacca as well as Thailand and...

Not quite, ASEAN countries are mostly able to separate political and economic approach between each other and between ASEAN and external partners. That results to continous close economic and supply chain integration both internally (AFTA) and externally (ACFTA). Furthermore, ASEAN basically...

What‘s up with youtubers and their tendency to put their soyboy face as video thumbnail?

Well, if JnT has major operations in China and the options are only China vs US, then it makes sense to shift IPO to HK. Though I wish JnT does IPO in Jakarta following the current trend with Indonesian startups.

Close to the banning of the largest radical group FPI, representative of German embassy paid a visit to their HQ without coordination with the ministry of internal affairs. There were some suspicions about this.

Anies Baswedan, Amien Rais are the beacon for these groups tho...

Well if that is the case, as much as I like the design, I still dont see any use of this. Improving engine capacity and the armaments+electronics of KCR60 is a better and wiser spending alternative if it was up to me.

Hopefully they go with Aluminum or better yet, steel this time.

He was the king of Persia AND A PAGAN. Spirit of Islam? More like spirit of Paganism lol

You are the one putting up Xerxes name as your profile name. Idoltary of a pagan does equalize you as pagan dude. Man the irony with this pagan 🤣

Says you who idolizes pagan emperor Xerxes that essentially makes him the most pagan of all pagans lol

Isnt it a quite an already well known fact that Russian jets of the 80, 90‘s era such as Su27/30, MiG 29 and their derivatives are lacking in BVR combat against their western counterparts? Would be interesting to see the results of other scenarios though. During pitch black 2012, Indonesian...

Preference based on cultural proximity is fine since it does not directly exclude non Chinese people. Non chinese Sinophile also has a good chance of getting it.

What ECC would mean is not the my critic point. Rather the basis that justifies that issuance of such card. I have German green card (Niederlassungserlaubnis) that allows me to have full economic and residence rights plus benefits that come with them. But I dont have to be a member of a certain...

which is a great foundation for China to become a better and more acceptable global power than the US is or the USSR was. My comments point out to the fact that this foundation might crumble if China starts to resort to race-based policies.

I didnt say China should let Chinese ethnic get massacred anywhere for dubious reasons. There is a clear line between emergency situation where exceptions to the immigration laws must be made and non emergency ones. The situation you described above refers to events of humanitarian crisis which...

This goes back to the question of whether citizenship = race or citizenship = allegiance for China. Pushing ethnic/race based exceptions to the immigration laws would likely send a wrong message to the countries that host chinese ethnic. As China is trying to go global and build alliances with...
