" ... the beginnings of a parallel financial system centred on Beijing are becoming detectable... the willingness of the emerging market giants to sustain business relations with Russia highlights a deep rift over Europe's biggest crisis since World War II, and threatens to chip away the dominance of the U.S. dollar in global trade."

Chinese ex-president Hu Jintao escorted out of congress - BBC News

surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet - audacious power move by Winnie The pooh ( aka President Xi ) as he eliminates rival faction to secure dictator for life position ( I choose to ignore the ignore the bullshit explanation given by the Australian pundit in this clip, they're in in the pocket of China )

looks like my holiday to Taiwan next year is in severe jeopardy

I can't find the footage on youtube, but I'm pleased to say that the Hongkongers fucked over one of the consulate goons with several kicks to the head

but, still, disgraceful behaviour by the consulate staff

as I understand it, normally the protocol is shut the gates, and let lhe protest outside fizzle out, but these goons chose to go out and tear down the "insulting" images of dictator for life Xi, and then provoke the protestors

My country Malaysia (and its former iterations) traded with China since 2000 years ago, China never invaded us. When they wanted something, they traded with us. In 1511 the Portuguese came, in 1642 the Dutch came, in 1786 the British, we were colonized by each, one after another. When the US Foreign Secretary Rex Tillerson traveled to Africa to warn African nations against working with China, he landed in an airport in Africa built by China, then he traveled on a road built by China, before finally he arrived in a building constructed by China to give the speech. And then he told the people: “Do not work with China.” When African countries deal with China, they get tangible assets. When Africa countries deal with the West, they need to be privatized before any further talks, otherwise they are dismissed by given a lecture on human rights and the projects remain on paper. And if the country has oil, the IMF and World Bank would come and give the loan, and Exxon/BP/Shell would take the oil. And if the country has oil and the leaders have big ambitions, e.g. Gaddafi’s pan-African currency and Saddam Hussein’s drop of the dollar in oil trades, bombs made by Raytheon would be dropped in the country, the leaders would be killed, then US contractors would be moved in to “rebuild” the country, the IMF and World Bank would come and give the loan, and Exxon/BP/Shell would take the oil.
