Its not a surprise. Its funny watching all these people mis-directing their anger and outrage. We failed to plan and planned to fail. When was the last time we had a 10-20-30 year strategy that was actually followed through?!

No friends china is winning a lot of favours despite all their wrong doings. Some favours are being won very close to home, look at what they are doing in the Pacific Islands. A lot of their marketing has been to do with their climate change policies and funding. Those islanders are sh!t scared of sinking due to rising sea levels. What do we do? Successive aid cuts, and make jokes that it wont matter cos they'll be underwater soon, oh and we'll broadcast neighbours and masterchef to counter influence. Come on!

People talk about BRIs being a debt trap....the loans they offer are half the interest rates of world banks. That's why countries take them!
