Hahaha, then if Taliban has admitted responsibility and apologised for 9/11 then they could have saved their country. Who really gives a damn about apology when one shoots down an Iranian passanger plane, in Iranian territorial water!? If you really criticize Russia for being aggressor, you...

Like that one? Iran Air Flight 655 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm gonna literally throw up if I see anymore comments like that from another US writer. - "China is rising in Latin America but it's sending crap" - "China is rising in Africa but it's imperialist" Oh just stop man. Just stop. Latin America was a US backyard in the past and still is. By being...

What is really stopping India from solving it's border problem with China and Pakistan? Is both Pakistan and China too stubborn? Why you guys can't find a middle ground diplomatically and peacefully coexist, just like European nations does? Do you believe India is purely innocent on this...

Hahaha, just like the West is dividing and enjoying all nations in Asia ;)

Just ignore him, like I did. He is too partizan for me.

True, they are a relatively new player in defense industry and lack experience in some issues like quality control. False, they are definitely not a paper tiger. They are the only country that can really counter balance US hegemony in the World. No country can claim such a position right now...

Why can't we just say both KMT and CCP fought in their own territories where they have public support? Even united against Japanese Imperial Army in some fronts. Ahh, what just annoys me about Asia. Indian vs Chinese, Chinese vs Chinese, Chinese vs Japanese, Korean vs Japanese, Turkish vs...

I know I'm a bit late comer but it's a good disucssion and I'd like to join. Emergence of an EU type partnership in Sinosphere or a more broad partnership like ASEAN + 3 might not be possible as easy as it sounds. And it's not just about the past problems. If Germany and France can solve their...

Economy is one of the most important issues that people care for. HK has robust infrastructure, and a GDP per capita that is not even imaginable for many Asian nations. Therefore one can think that status quo is very favorable. If a group wants to break a favorable status quo, they are simply...

The elections in HK political history started in 1982, it was the first election that they saw. From 1841 (First Opium Wars) to 1941 they were under British occupation. In 1941 they were invaded by Japan and until 1945 HK is ruled by Japanese government. After 1945 it was given back to British...

I know there should be a lot of Chinese textile brands in China. I also know Li Ning (but haven't heard 361 though). However there is no Li Ning store here in Istanbul. What I've meant was making globally recognized brands. Fashion is much more important than you think. Take a look at Vera...

That's one of the points that I don't understand. Whenever I'm reading an article about Chinese culture industry, it's almost always about movies. I know that movies are very important, but is it the only aspect? For example food is also an important aspect of culture. Chinese cuisine is being...

This is a side effect of capitalism, and being opened up to rest of the world. Since China has very tiny inroads in global mainstream culture, and global mainstream culture is dominated by the west (especially US) this is very understandable. China should be able to invest into it's culture...

@gambit Sorry but what I got was you are not trying to make discussion but rather trying to start a polemic. That's why discussing further would be futile. Besides I strongly think that you should read the post again to understand what it's thesis is, what it's supporting arguments are because...

Corruption is not solved with democracy. It just changes it's form. There is no country on earth that is able to solve the corruption problem completely. There are some models which can decrease it, but there is no model that can completely solve the problem including democracy. I tend to...

Well of course there are examples of collective companies even in countries that promotes liberal economy. Companies that promotes basic utilities are more collective minded. However how about, - Big 4 banks in China ( ICBC, BOC, CCB, ABC). Those are all state owned banks, portions of them are...

It's not the communist model that dictates the absolute centralized economy, it's socialist model. Communism has a lot of forms. For example anarcho-communism rejects every form of centralized government/management model. Radical democracy is also another model that is theoreticized by left...

I think we can see where Xi is trying to lead both the party and the nation. China in the era of Mao was a typical collectivist economy. Whole economy was virtually controlled by state and it was a very typical autarky that only made limited trade with it's allies (the eastern block). The...

And should I care about what my country's name means in damn English language? Should I make fun of that? Or should I make fun of an Indian whose ancestors spent 2 centuries being ruled by a British company and still making British jokes about my country's name. I guess it's Stockholm Syndrome...
