Dispatch: Chinese Influence Expands in South Pacific

[jcmartir202]

CHINA WILL BE THE NEXT GERMANY

WWIII is near!

but in the end china will fall! haha

[AccordGTR]

China blue-water Navy? Hmm last time that happened we were still using oil lamps and horse-drawn carriages.

[msoviet409]

No matter what the situation is, China is working to replace the US as the future master of the Pacific rim. What an enormous difference from 30 years ago. A beautiful fairy tale story I must say from rag to rich, when a leprechaun took China to the end of the rainbow to find a chest of gold.

[sfso911]

PEACEFUL? China is buying time to build up its navy to someday take the whole South China Sea. Facts:

Chinese navy ships harrassed Vietnamese and Filipino fishermen everyday.

May 6, 2011 Chinese navy ships cut cables of the Viet Petro oil exploration ship.

1995 China attacked the Philipppines and took Mischeef Reef

1988 China attacked Vietnam and took South Johnson Reef in the Spratly Islands

1974 China attacked South Vietnamese troops on Paracel Islands and occupied the islands since.

@sfso911 India/Pakistan, China/Taiwan, Inner/ o Mongolia, N/ S Korea, failed to divide vietnam but now Tibet.. these is all happening in Asia .China is located in Asia stand for Asia not the western.

History have shown us many many many times that a one party government system cannot last long because it is prone to corruption and tyranny. Universal human principle of freedom of expression is absent in a communist China and so it is bound to fall soon.

[chineseheart]

@homer30

Republicant and democratic are the same.. so when will they collapse?

[rufco18]

But of course, the USA = UNITED STATES OF ASSHOLES will collapse sooner.

[eagleeye00544]

Nice, thank you for sharing.

[MrShannon888]

China is a coming force, America will have to confront them..A Massive army, that will cause the land to tremble..

[MrShannon888]

China will not collapse, they will ascend to be even more powerful

[kekvirag1]

@MrShannon888 if China do not want to collepse willingly then the USA will help them in this matter soon

[obsidianstatue]

@kekvirag1 since the dawn of time barbarians around China cursed it to collapse with envy. and now barbarians are still cursing with envious attitude. they never work :)

[Contrajoe]

Interesting stuff!

Have the developments from China influenced/changed Friedman's predictions for its future?

[Reqrezentin]

Good for China! Doing what they should have been doing 10 years ago.

[kekvirag1]

this is national risk for Australia

[Teranex]

So much to "China is isolated" lol. STRATFOR contradicting itself. But china will collapse anyway in the next years lol, guys from STRATFOR predicted it.

[fashionxue]

@Teranex

well. China has been announcing "Collapsing" within almost 30 years.. You still believe STRATFOR is creditable on that?

[Teranex]

@fashionxue Of course, STRATFOR is god like :D. You just have to see their next 100 years video to see their godlikeness lol.

[Babaroga54]

@Mojo

China does not give a shit about conquering anything in a classic sense of word, military wise. They exert their economical might shrinking australian/western sphere of influence. Why would they want to conquer some big island that does not have any resources except sheep and barren enviroment ?

[Mojo1982]

Australia helps liberate East Timor from Indonesian rule, and this how East Timor repairs China. East Timor will be used as a staging post for any future Chinese invasion of Australia. Just like how Kuwait was used to invade Iraq in 2003, the UK was used to invade France in 1944.

[Mojo1982]

@Mojo1982

"how East Timor repairs China"

Sorry I mean repays Australia.

[chan0chap]

austrailia phhhh

they all be speaking chinese in 30 years

[islandcaptain]

If I lived in Australia, I would be a little uncomfortable with this trend. What happened to China's ascendancy being a purely benign rise? Did anyone really believe it was possible?

[fashionxue]

Why you bother? Better your stupid country fighting wars
