I think people here are having some sort of double standard.

When US use its own influence and refused to wait for International Body to begin war in Iraq, Chinese member here jump up and down.

When China refuse UN intervention for land dispute, miraculously, all Chinese member jump up and rejoice. And blame the American, which have nothing to do with the whole dispute. LOL

Also, for a country that claim they don't mind other business and express disgust every time country like US and UK engage in other business. They sure very nosy about the ASEAN.

If that is not double standard, then I don't know what is.

Paracel ils are just small & useless rocks only,and having no strategic position,too,so,China can occupy it as long as China cant drill any oil from there. Fooling urself abt Laos-Camb cant help u to change the Truth

In the 1980s, Laos and Cambodia had once more become Vietnam's client states. Laos, with a communist party long nurtured by the Vietnamese, entered the relationship with docility; Cambodia, however, under a ruthless, but anti-Vietnamese dictatorship of its own, resisted being drawn into the Vietnamese orbit. Tension between the two states escalated into open warfare and, in 1978, Hanoi launched an invasion that toppled the Pol Pot regime in Phnom Penh. In 1987 Cambodia remained a state governed precariously by a regime installed by Hanoi, its activities constrained by the presence of a substantial Vietnamese occupation force and a tenacious insurgency in the countryside.

You misread the comment was for zero_wing. I never meant to insult call center agents. But since you brought the topic up, if Pinoys really have medical/engineering degrees then why are they toiling for jobs that pay $5k a year when the average medical doctor in the Philippines makes at least 5 times that much and engineers 3x?

Well, based on my interaction with Filipinos (and this interaction is constant, considering I'm a surgeon in a very prominent hospital in Chicago, most of the nursing staff , medical techs and a considerable number of our physicians/surgeons being of Filipino background), due to the lack of jobs in engineering, medicine, and nursing, these grads are going into call center work due to the job prospects.

The pay for nurses and physicians in the Philippines is not as high as compared to the west, which is the catalyst for the immigration of Filipino educated professionals in the fields of Engineering, Medicine, Nursing, Medical Technology, Pharmacy etc to the west and/or other nations in need of their services.

Nurses in the Philippines average at around 10-15 thousand pesos a month, some call center agents make 15-20 thousand pesos.

You do the math.

Anyone who dares to say Filipnos are not respected is sublimely fooling himself/herself. A very good friend of mine, a senior cardiothoracic surgeon at Rush University Hospital is a Filipino. A fine surgeon, I might add.

Laos is a joke to Thailand, and same with Cambodia. Anyway, Thailand is influenced by USA and China. Vietnam does not stand a chance.

Paracel ils are just small & useless rocks only,and having no strategic position,too,so,China can occupy it as long as China cant drill any oil from there. Fooling urself abt Laos-Camb cant help u to change the Truth

Good morning Swede,

LOL That's because this is the point........

 

[Soryu]

China conquered half of northern Vietnam during the short war and the vietcong ceded border towns to china , never to forget that China took over the strategic paracel Islands after defeating vietnam , that was their main aim.

The chinese leadership did not continue into vietnam fearing actions from the stronger soviet union at that time , they had bases in vietnam during that time .

LOL, big mighty China conquered half of northern Vietnam when all main forces of Vietnam in Cambodia, and retreat with "victory" and then began upgrade their military with Western's support.
Fear Soviet Union!? China has America daddy on their back,

They can take all Paracel and a part of Spartly because they aim at good chance, and nowaday, when Chinese said Vietnam power just was a joke to China, we still drill and explore oil from SCS, we still can play with them in this game well. (Well, well, when I said to this point, Chinese alway bring up economy, industry, Viets problem to cover their Ah-Q victory spirit... )
