Olominira:Now I know you are running Mad. Should Nigeria starts to imprison millions of Muslims in Nigeria like Uyghurs Muslims that China imprisoned? Should Nigeria starts organ harvesting of prisoners? Can you trade your democracy for communism? Tell Nigeria to do that as well. You claimed Chinese is brilliant but they have to: 1. Steal bullet train design from Japan 2. Steal fighter jet design from both the US and Russia 3. Bought Ukraine old Aircraft carrier using a third party company only for it to be turned to main Aircraft carrier for China. 4. Give COVID 19 without knowing how to build the vaccine. Can you tell me any technology built by Chinese that changed the world? By the way I know one if you don’t. China did not build is economy on hard work. It was built with western wealths i.e companies moving to China, Bill Clinton bringing China to join WTO and making them most preferred Nation, slave laborers and unfair trade practices. Just shut up. Because you travel to Chinese village does not give you the expert and authority on this subject. 3 Likes 1 Share |

amanikondo: I wonder where you get your twisted stories from. 1. Japan's bullet trains were good but the Chinese upgraded it. Our igbo brothers are good at technology too, if they take Japanese Tech and upgrade why should I be angry that people from my country are making waves. 2. They took fighter jets design and made theirs I still wonder what's so wrong with that?, if Nigeria develops their technology the same way then run to US and Russia and report them. 3. I don't know what you read but the Chinese built their aircraft carrier themselves, try reading News from BBC atleast they're quite fair. 4. The Uighurs are not been killed as western media portray, do not believe lies because it suits the narrative of your colonial masters. They call it reeducation camps and it's working that's why you can't find terrorism in China, I don't know how it's your business, a country fought terrorism in it's own way, no bombings no killing of innocents but y'all are angry. Tell me what does the Chinese government seek to gain from imprisoning Uighurs?, until you can give me a good answer then all you've said is questionable. And lastly why won't communism be good? The Chinese are doing well themselves, they have the highest number of middle class people all over the world, so what are you saying. And if communism didn't work how did the first man and woman go into space? Or you want to say communism copied your colonial masters when they couldn't even send anybody to space at that time. Again the Chinese has historically been full of inventions, paper making and gunpowder were Chinese inventions before white colonialists came and stole it to start wars so they can steal resources. And if you think the Chinese are copycats, who did they copy 5G technology from, is it you? Because I don't know which country created 5G before them. 1 Like |

[2quote author=Olominira post=92039889]Chengdu consular office is likely to be closed. Closing the HK office would be extreme as suggested by Hu Xijin Modified I hope you have freedom of thought really! America made Chinese Economy, currently living in China felled for their charm and they aren't the best people to deal with. The Modern society we enjoyed has America as it back bone, ATM machines in China still operating with American software , literally Microsoft developed China, I'm still be taught with American resources here. We focused on American political crisis and demonize them while neglecting or belittling their efforts in bringing the ideas that has brought billions out poverty through capitalism, science and technology. You focused on Chinese posturing on technology, I laugh in Greeks when their political ideas starts I hope you will have fun. Our paper democracy is the problem, rather than understudy China, we should have a hard look on US and Singapore , both are culturally diverse and migrate their challenges with our own uniqueness |

Slimpotter: Quite an interesting argument bro, the west built the Chinese economy, the invent ink or paper so what? Who invented internet? Trains? Airplanes? Our hard hearted � for the west is because the colonialized us and we have nothing to show for it, rather we assume all malpractice to their efforts, American ideas changed the world as it is now. Chinese political challenges hasn't started yet , please stop romancing their way of life it is one way not diverse. Don't mix science and politics. Chinese is unique but can't be compared to what American has, Space X is recently example a private company sending man to moon. |

Nokia and Siemens have. The 5G installation is already in the US and none is China installations(I know this because that is what I do). As for the atrocities of China towards the Muslims, I will not dignify you with a research as you did not put a link to buttress your claim as well. Google is your friend. |
Re: China To Retaliate As US Closed Its Consulate In Houston, Texas by Slimpotter(m): 5:55am On Jul 26, 2020 |
MacPython: I disagree. The Chinese built the Chinese economy, it is an insult for you to reduce their level of hardwork by giving credit to the west. The only reason you see the west going to China is because of cheap labour and access to resources nothing else. Does cheap labour translate to economic build up? You talking about private companies, the China is a communist state. There's more public owned than private owned companies. That have made innovations too https://www.lovemoney.com/gallerylist/74915/the-tech-and-inventions-that-show-why-china-is-the-best-in-the-world. While American ideas are a force, they're alot of ideas that changed the world before American ideas formed. Science has it's bedrock in Europe, let's not just give them anyhow credit. And I don't understand what you mean by political challenges, what challenges, have the government not been in charge for 70 years?, so what's the political challenge there. |
Re: China To Retaliate As US Closed Its Consulate In Houston, Texas by Slimpotter(m): 6:05am On Jul 26, 2020 |
Heathrow44: I don't know for Russia. But as for China they have every right to do what they're doing. Your idea of freedom is relative too. The Chinese government has been so good to their people I wonder why one would want to talk against the government. if not I don't see them limiting people's rights to live as they want or do as they like, but because the west has a form of democracy that works for them doesn't mean every country should copy them. Go and tell that to Libya and Iraq that received American freedom. You don't really know how the Chinese government work because you keep on reading reports from bias sources. It's not that the Chinese people are complaining. I'm still trying to understand where it is written that every country must be changing leaders like the west does. How has changing leaders ever helped us in Nigeria? We only know how to copy without looking for what will work for us. Russia and China are prosperous and doing well, so if it works for them, how is it now America's business. The queen of England has been there for decades but nobody's complaining, why won't they face Britain, after all she's part of the government. And leave Stalin out of the discussion, he was the leader of the Soviet Union, if the party didn't remove him, how is it anybody's problem? |

Re: China To Retaliate As US Closed Its Consulate In Houston, Texas by MacPython: 9:00am On Jul 26, 2020 |
Slimpotter: U don't need to agree with me, Every country economy is backed by its people, sure they are hard work I attest to that, so like wise the West and Americans, since 1980 till date the west has been subsidising Chinese labour in other for them to be Democratic and has spent over $350 million dollars from 2000 https://www.everycrsreport.com/files/20160112_RS22663_a4799186b8f9d13d6a1889dc40bdeb5aa5a243e0.pdf If China is the good as you claim why is Chinese students (360k) are studying in The US alone while mere 11k are studying in The US. Americans studying in China just for a year language course. Common sense will guide that they're Trojan horse. Who built the Chinese firewall? Cisco systems. Their industrial revolution was built on American companies moving their supply chain and industries to China. The technology we use today, the internet we enjoyed, the banking system we operate is still from the west. Chinese are good in quantity not quality, Huawei CEO is using iPhone not his company's products. On political challenges I meant, we have gotten use to western style of governance and has grown contempt for them, and we fantasies about China and their way of living. As one who has lived there, freedom is a precious gift that shouldn't be taken from man. There's no such thing in their society ,common sports they will block or remove a content that will show that then losing especially to an African. Other countries trusted them so they can be developed, that doesn't meant they have to be a undermine other to show their strength, they're purely paper dragon . Their economic was built on the backs of the west. The west provided the money and expertise, they produce and sold the premium back to west, and other quality to Africa and their people. This how they removed their people from poverty. You bet you're using 90% us base app not Chinese. |

And for your information, China is a big producer of basic households need in most country of the world including USA. Secondly, USA is owing China huge financial debt not to even talk of investment.

Slimpotter: Do u knw y Moscow has been stagnant till now, their economy isn't robust , they can only boast of military influence with their bombs and drones packed in armoury, the standards of living of the average Russian citizen hasn't improved their living wages hasn't improved in d last 4yrs, do u know y? Cos Putin doesn't really see Russia as a country that can compete on d global level economically, his vision of Russia isn't a one of a globalized Russia like Boris Johnson is trying to make the UK an independent entity not dependent on the EU like US, What Russia needs is someone that can sell Russia to the world as a country that isn't bad as the Americans paint them to be, that Russia can abide by international laws of human rights, that Russia has all it takes to wear a human face cos Putin is the one driving potential global investments to Russia cos of his stance! China's problems are quite many too and one key element is to try to be more accommodating of its Neigbours like Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and others, many countries around china don't like China cos of their bully nature that's y they are very comfortable with American presence in d south China sea and the Strait of Malacca! American presence and the presence of US troops in the Asia free trade zone is what is keeping China in check, if not I tell u China would've invaded Japan and Taiwan just as Russia invaded and carved out a part of Ukraine! |
Re: China To Retaliate As US Closed Its Consulate In Houston, Texas by Slimpotter(m): 6:25pm On Jul 26, 2020 |
Heathrow44: OK, look at it this way. Russia is doing better because of Putin. I'll tell you why. When the Soviet Union collapsed, alot of state owned businesses were seized by some oligarchs, Russia was doing poorly economically, it's not quite easy to transfer state owned businesses to the hands of private individuals, there'll be economic consequences, so Putin has atleast tried, and their weapons manufacturing is because of the legacy the Soviet Union left behind. As for Crimea, even with western bias, the Crimeans voted to be annexed by Russia, so what's the fuss about, the west always claim to respect people's rights, the majority of the Crimean people voted to be part of Russia, why can't they respect that? As for China, the US is in no way keeping China on it's heels, cause the Chinese military isn't afraid of the US military no matter how the media makes it seem. The South China sea is an historically complicated matter, because the Chinese claims are both genuine and it also calls for revision. It's genuine because, in ancient times the Chinese were the ones using it to trade and occupied the islands in the area that's why they claim rights to the South China sea. It should be revised because the parts the Chinese are claiming are close to the coasts of the other countries laying claim to it, so in my opinion they can sort it out themselves without the US coming to use it as an opportunity to provoke the Chinese. Meanwhile as for Taiwan it's funny they're joining other countries to claim parts of the South China sea, because the Chinese government still consider Taiwan as part of it's territory, before you argue this, go read on the Chinese civil war. And as for Japan, if the Chinese want to invade Japan, I think it would be in their right. The Japanese shouldn't be bragging after all the things they put China through. Go read on the imperial Japanese invasion of China, even Korea too. The Japanese enslaved and killed alot of Chinese people for no reason, they just wanted to expand their empire. So if we say we should start pointing at those who've done so much wrong you would understand that these people trying to trouble the Chinese people are also guilty. |

Heathrow44: Yea I know they're censored but if you would try to understand what these people have gone through in the past, you would know why they take certain actions. Chinese people still use vpns to access western internet, so it's nothing new, but they've learnt never to allow American tactics of destabilization destroy all they've worked for, so let them be. Even at that the Chinese people can still access the internet but certain social media platforms that have been used to undermine the party leadership were banned and for good reason. They have 1.4 billion people to take care of, they don't need the west to turn their country into Libya and Iraq. |

MacPython: So if Nigeria was smart enough to study the tech of other countries and use it to develop themselves, is it a bad thing? The way you people say it as if the west did them a favour. No business man will invest in another country if he doesn't know he'll maximize his profit, they saw cheap Chinese labour and went for it, they got what they want and the Chinese was wise enough to learn and improve their tech. They've grown and are now being innovative themselves, so why the hate? Why can't Nigeria grow itself using same method, if Nigeria was behaving the way the Chinese are why won't I support my country. I'll tell you this, if it was Nigeria that rose to the second largest economy worldwide and starts threatening to displace US, I'm sure the US government would start placing sanctionsns on our leaders, just look at how Nigeria hasn't even achieved anything but the way South Africans and other African countries show us hatred, you would wonder how they would feel if Nigeria does better. |
