China on the rise!

[timrev]

sana yun mga mahihirap dito sa pinas magisip katulad ng mga modern japanese ngayon na maunlad...nakakaasar yun mga nakatira sa slum area sabi nila yun na daw kapalaran nila and thats b*llsh*t!

[CoDer]

Kakatawa naman tong thread na to, biglang may nanisi na sa religion. Mga Pari ba ang nag papatakbo sa pinas?

China seem to have the right ingredients today. Communist Capitalism and their own local huge market.

[Monseratto]

We're Roman Catholic country and we're gonna beat China...

and that is why I believe Philippines can beat China. unang-una we're all Roman Catholic. Religion + progress = recipe for true unity.

[Syuryuken]

:popcorn: Parang pelikula ah, may biglang twists and turns.

Religion alone does not make a country economically good or bad.

Sa ibang bansa Oo pero dito sa Pinas malaking sagabal ang relihiyon sa pag-unlad ng bansa lahat na lang pinapakialaman ng simbahan mula pagpili ng pulitiko hanggang desisyon ng mga pulitiko.

ob and his religion crap. kaya pala yumaman ang mga arabo... dahil sa islam. di dahil sa langis

china's domestic consumption is weak. they have a billion more people than the u.s.

but 300,000,000 americans consume more than 1.3 billion chinese

before getting too excited about china's growth plz check china per capita income

compare to u.s. or japan or germany per capita income

I think it's more of culture and traditions na halo-halo but since dominant religion, siya yung nangingibabaw. But I wouldn't single it out. It's like generalizing kasi IMHO.

Absolutely!
What's on papers is not what China looks like. Set your foot in China and see for yourself.

Problem with us (our media) are happy to show the world the bad sides of our own. The Chinese are the opposite. As simple as in sports, the Chinese TV channels won't show coverage of their lossing athletes. Sa atin, kahit kulilat pa yan with lots of negative comments pa.

china is like a social climber. puro mage. high speed rail. buildings and airports and bridges and dams. looks impressive on the surface. but most of their people are poor

[timrev]

well di naman masama at libre mangarap na maunusan natin ang china malay natin after 50+ yrs...kung baga my goal

Sa mga pulitiko lang sagabal ang relihyon, hindi sa pag-unlad. Kahit nga sa eskwater takot ang mga pulitiko.

Korek.

Walang kinalaman relihiyon sa problema natin, yang mga l*ntik na mga pulitiko ang problema natin.

I agree.

Too short.

[confused shoes]

Tanong: Bakit ang China mayaman?

Idyot 1: Kasi malaki ang lupain nila.
*Bakit ang Singapore, mas maliit pa kesa Basilan?

Idyot 2: Kasi marami sila.
*Bakit ang Pilipinas gusto may RH bill?

Idyot 3: Kasi wala sila relihyon.
*Ewan ko sa yo.

yumaman ang china & singapore coz they were able to attract capital from the west

the phils. wasnt very sucessful in attracting foreign money so it had to send one-tenth of its population abroad to earn foreign money

You think it actually works?

Chinese censors can only fool the Chinese. But it's a disadvantage. Covering up the problems simply means that nobody learns from the mistakes in development that have cost China billions. From the failed agricultural programs to the ceaseless infrastructure development... they're all going to feel it come pinch time. China's only aces are the huge natural resource base and low wages. Once Chinese inflation gets big enough, they lose the low wage argument that has been the backbone of Chinese industrial development for decades. They can't keep wages low anymore because they're finally allowing the Chinese people to act like capitalists.

Most of the big corporations who go into China know exactly what they're getting into. As long as they have a local partner footing the bill, a Chinese government buying the products, and the ability to pull out once things go down the drain, they don't care! They're making money now.

Singaporean censors are much more limited and specific. And their people are more free than the Chinese. The reason you hear mostly good news about the Singaporean economy is because it's mostly good news.

South Korea and Japan are very liberated countries and economically progressive. Despite its woes, Japan is still an industrial powerhouse.

[pop3corn]

Don't waste your great imagination na papantay tayo sa isang superpower, OB. Maybe in another dimension, pwede pa.

Huwag mo ng panaginipan iyan, isipin mo na lang muna yung mga kapitbahay ka-league natin.

And to think Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand are already sprinting ahead of the Philippines decades ago in terms of economic growth and tourist arrivals...and they aren't even supreme Roman Catholic countries.

Tayo naman hiniintay pa rin yun biyaya na huhulog ng langit.

china was beaten by Japan by a surgical army in World War II, ni hindi pa nga start ng World War II. eh buddhist religion lang yun, somewhat inferior to Christianity.

you know why the US is always unbeatable. the cold war, the asian wars, the middle eastern wars. bec. they are Christians.


walang papatutunguhan ang atheistic govt, it's only effective as long as the system is effective. if the system collapses, and the people are confused. they have nothing to turn to but spirituality to regroup and to reunite. eh ang problema wala nga eh, so hayun kita mo, nun SARS, nun Asian Financial Crisis, pakamatay na lang ang solusyon ng mga Intsik.

eh tayo mga Filipino, inabot na natin lahat coup, bagyo, lindol and even flight of investors noon araw, but we remained intact bec. of our religion, our Christianity, and even our Catholicism bec. the Pope is there to always to inspire.

Imagine, inspirational words from the Pope cured kagad tayo. sobrang tipid nga eh. eh sa mga bansa mukang pera, pera lang pantapal sa kanila para bumalik ang confidence nila, eh pano nga kung walang pera to begin with.

ano akala ng china, tutulungan sila ng buong mundo if they collapse. eh sa nakikita ko may impending collapse sila eh, they're too big. sa kanila lang applicable yun too big but will fail unlike certain fortune 500 companies of the US. why bec. nobody in the world really likes the Chinese to begin with.

ang silbi lang ng Chinese are cheap goods and fake goods. the world is not ready for Chinese sounding expensive bags and perfumes like in Europe, or chinese-sounding sports cars/muscle cars. the white caucasian race will never buy a quality and expensive Made in China product, it is beneath them.

but sadly, since China is progressing and entering the inflationary ages, magmamahal ang produkto nila and paktay sila. Japan survived the bubble eh, kasi nga manageable ang size ng Japan.

---

Yung Russia nga eh, nun nag-collapse ang berlin wall, and they became democratic, akala nyo ok na. they experienced the 10 year Russian Financial Crisis, nobody helped them coz still the stigma of communism na they were once were, only made other countries ignore them.

kung sa Russia nangyari, sa china pa kaya. Russia can't even cry to the world, Hey we're Christians too (they are predominantly Eastern Orthodox Christians), help us! hindi eh, bec. the US and the Vatican knew that the Eastern Orthodox Churches were infiltrated by former KGB agents to spy on the West.

eh sa China, ano ang pang-ask nila ng tulong? walang religion, no democracy, hoarder ng pera. nothing in common for all of us.

Maraming forecasts from reliable financial institutions saying that the Philippines will be the world's 16th largest and strongest economy and Southeast Asia's top economy by 2050. By that time, China will be #1.

HSBC for one citation:
World

I think sir it's because of the Jews, who don't even believe in Christ as the son of God. Although despite their unbelief, they're still the "chosen people" kaya nasa kanila lahat ng pabor. Napaka-swerteng mga tao.

Look at Israel. Dami kaaway sa East/Middle East Asia pero hindi sila matalo-talo kahit maliit lang sila. I think it's one reason kung bakit sila pino-protektahan ng Amerika.

But this is way too off topic.
