I bought a Sony laptop back in 2005 and it broke in less than 1 year. That is when I stopped buying Japanese electronics all together. Way too expensive for its questionable quality.

What are you talking about. I use a Samsung galaxy note 3, and it is far superior to any previous phone that I used in terms of battery life, speed, camera, ect. Much better than any apple product.

It collapse for many reasons. House hold appliances - Chinese just make their own Cell Phones - Apple + Samsung are superior in quality, Chinese superior in cost. DVD players Walkman VHS recorder - Museum technology Gaming Console - Still good but has competition from Xbox Computers Labtop -...

The 79 war was overrated, and I doubt another invasion from China will ever occur again. Many factors led to China's 3 week vacation in Vietnam 1. Deng Xiaoping needed to send army away somewhere to weaken their share of the political power. 2. Vietnam going rampage in Cambodia. 3. Soviet...

Yes, Japan had no chance of winning in China without seeking oil supply from Malaysia. But doing so requires her to fight against USA, the premier superpower of the world. US had done a lot to help China throughout history. US politicians always had a pro China policy (except from 1949 to...

Innovation is overrated, and there is nothing wrong with copying, everyone does it. Doesn't matter if the cat is black or white, what matters is it catches mice.

:crazy: Anyway nothing wrong with liking to gamble. Most Chinese gambler just do so recreationally. They lose 20 or so dollars on average which is nothing if you like a day of fun socializing with old friends. Only very few are degenerate gambling addicts that loses their house.

Yeah, I think gambling is an essential part of Chinese culture. I read that during the 70's and 80's, if you go down the basement of some restaurant in Chinatown, there is usually an illegal mahjong ring. I live in California and I occasionally visit casinos. It is usually completely crowded...

That is impossible, there are no casinos in Japan. Japan has a complete banned on gambling.

Well according to PRC, Paracel Islands is a part of Hai Nan.

If one fifth of humanity can reach one fourth of American gdp per capita, then it is good news for all of mankind.

I don't know why the world is giving China crap for the economic slowdown from 10% to 7.7%. China's slowdown is caused by weak performance in EU and North America, its biggest exporters, doesn't mean China will collapse. Turkey's growth went from 7-8% to 2-4% after 2009 recession. India...

Whatever you say buddy, but aren't you also unnecessarily biased against China? Reading some of your past post, it seems like you have an unnatural hatred for China/Chinese in general.

There is no reason to believe China's economy can't adjust because they have a large population of poor people, the logical connection is simply not there. Remember, Europe was once also filled with poverty, and now very rich. It is kind of like those arguments made in 2007 about how Chinese...

Soviet Union collapse was indeed out of the blue. They just went along with the whole anti communist wave in eastern Europe after 1989 and let the ethnic tension in USSR get out of hand. There are key differences between China and Soviet though. 1. Han Chinese are 91% of the population while...

That article was written in 2010, and the prediction for the decade seems off already after 4 and a half years. Stratfor's articles are geared toward the most gullible people of society much like those books and movies about how the world will end in 2012. They just tell people what they want to...

Pretty amazing how China was able to keep the majority of her empire (only outer Mongolia is gone) after the collapse of the Qing against all odds. Soviet Union was actively trying to destabilize the XinJiang region to turn it into a soviet puppet much like Outer Mongolia. On the other hand...

What are the specs of Kolkata vs type 052D, the two nations' most power destroyer.

The 3 main exports of Japan in the 1980s-2000's were cars, electronics (dvd players, walkman, cellphones, camera, ect) and household appliances (water boiler, rice cooker) Samsung + Apple effectively dethroned Japan as the king of electronics, Apple's Ipod defeated Japanese walkman/CD...

Sky City (Changsha) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia China said they were going to use the same prefabricated lego construction method it used to build that 30 story building in 15 days. China constructs building in 15 days Hilarious comment section on that video, many trolls claim it will...
