    Also, somebody in the forum did mention that they will give/sell us the "export" versions of their weapons that are not quite the same as what they're using. Makes sense, why sell weapons that can be used against you, say, in an encounter over territory?

    and, malamang alam na nila ang mga limitations ng "exports" nila...critical info that could tip the odds in their favor should push comes to shove.

    came across this NYTimes article (as Trump would say, the failing New York Times hehe)

    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/13/b...lion-plan.html

    i'm gonna quote some parts of the article that confirm my views

    China creating projects for its construction companies

    Chinese construction companies had lots of practice building highways and bridges and tunnels and railways that they have become so good they're exporting their expertise

    The massive infrastructure projects, along with hundreds of others across Asia, Africa and Europe, form the backbone of ChinaÂ’s ambitious economic and geopolitical agenda. President Xi Jinping of China is literally and figuratively forging ties, creating new markets for the countryÂ’s construction companies and exporting its model of state-led development in a quest to create deep economic connections and strong diplomatic relationships.
    China needs new projects to absorb its overcapacity

    The projects inherently serve ChinaÂ’s economic interests. With growth slowing at home, China is producing more steel, cement and machinery than the country needs. So Mr. Xi is looking to the rest of the world, particularly developing countries, to keep its economic engine going.
    Chinese labor

    Nearly everything for the Laos project is made in China. Almost all the labor force is Chinese. At the peak of construction, there will be an estimated 100,000 Chinese workers.
    loans are to countries that aren't very creditworthy

    The investments could complicate BeijingÂ’s effort to stem the exodus of capital outflow that have been weighing on the economy. The cost could also come back to haunt China, whose banks are being pressed to lend to projects that they find less than desirable. By some estimates, over half the countries that have accepted Belt and Road projects have credit ratings below investment grade.


    So it makes sense to me if China is going to lend in RMB instead of USD

    since contractors will all be Chinese

    no problem in currency acceptance

    If nothing else, makikita talaga na shrewd ang mga chinese when it comes to money matters.

    Nataon naman obob yung nakaupo sa trono natin.

    Recipe for disaster ........ for the Phils.
