Health Improvements Have Been More Rapid and Widespread in China than in India: A Comparative Analysis of Health and Socioeconomic Trends from 1960 to 2011 (nih.gov)
How are they 'undermining' democracy. They are just showing by example. The CPC has saved hundreds of millions of lives compared with India's failed 'democratic' experience. The CPC just does its own thing. Has China ever made demands of NZ in respect of ...
Actually giving people a $25 voucher would likely be more effective at upping the vaccination rates and money a good deal better spent than millions on any other form of advertising and propaganda
This woman is disgusting
The developing country to grapple with Covid most effectively is China. Covid completely shows up the Western democratic experiment to be an utter failure - at least for developing countries.
The goal here is deterrence and containment. Everyone in SE Asia knows that if the PRC get away with expropriating Taiwan they will be next. Oh for heavens sake, the PRC has no interest in taking over all of SE Asia and it would be militarily unrealistic. ...
Not much ambiguity about that is there. Agree. Not at all. It is a consistent policy of both the Communists, and the KMT that Taiwan is part of China. The Taiwanese also claim all of the South China Sea - on behalf of China. Why PRC and Taiwan agree on the...
China has ALWAYS said it would fight like fuck to keep Taiwan. China has NEVER renounced the use of force. Publicly and loudly, in Asian and out of Asia. And at one stage Taiwan said it would take over all of mainland China
Tell his military they can stand down from their preparations for imminent war Stop expanding their already massive navy and airforce that now only serves an expansionist purpose Stop their daily aggressive incursions into the airspace of other nations ...
Everyone in the region knows that the claim 'that Taiwan is part of China' is a plausible lie intended to fool gullibles in the west. Taiwanese call themselves part of China - just look at their passport cover. And the PRC considers Taiwan part of China. ...
"Now we get to pick a side – there will be no idealistic 'sitting it out as a neutral, non-nuclear, non-aligned' pixie dust land." No need to pick a side. If there is a shooting war it will be in the South China Sea or Taiwan Straits. A long way away from ...
The Taiwanese 'question' has as much to do with the Western world, as the Quebec question has to do with China. The Western world has declared forever that Taiwan is part of China. Indeed the US recognised Taiwan as China up until 1979. "The idea that the ...
Red Logix. Your comment is daft. Taiwanese 'independence' simply means Taiwan declares they are not Chinese, not that they are not PRC Chinese. That is what mainland China is against.
"This is much less true for the Cantonese speaking people of the South, the Sichuan of the interior – and numerous other smaller ethnicities" Shows how little RedLogix knows. Cantonese speaking people are Han.
No, I am suggesting that our healthcare system will cope less than that of Mexico.
Now imagine their case load with our healthcare infrastructure.
China and others adapted and expanded their capacity in weeks. I think it’s important to look at what we didn’t do so we learn for the future.
I am all for strict lockdowns but I struggle with the distorted image of the amazing NZ that handles things better than other countries. We had 18 months to create a “zero strategy” MIQ system. We had 18 months to train students in Otago and Auckland as ...
The main driver of our strategy is that we have an a third world healthcare system and they know if we even slowly allow the virus to spread we look at a humanitarian disaster on par with any third world nation - instead we float and brag how amazing the ...
"Even if there's a UN resolution to defend Taiwan" LOL!!!!! The West can't even muster up a resolution when it comes to Xinjiang I simply can't see any New Zealander with a modicum of common sense wanting to place their sons, and daughters, in harms way ...
"huge majority of Taiwanese agree on is they do not want to be ruled from Beijing. " You miss the point. Its not about being ruled from Beijing. The PRC wants the status quo in which the Taiwanese continue seeing themselves as part of China, as they ...
Both mainland Chinese and Taiwanese see themselves as part of China. This is an internal family dispute. China has no interests in the rest of the Pacific aside from trade and economic cooperation.
The fact that both the Taiwanese and the mainland Chinese agree they are part of China, and the fact that almost every country in the world, including NZ, recognizes the 'one China' policy tells us anything that happens between mainland China and Taiwan is...
The funniest part about the flood is that the old Nissan Leaf has a wading depth of 700mm, on par with the Toyota Hilux and only 100mm less than a Ford Ranger - no Utes needed to pull them EV’s out of the water. every time I mention that fact to a Ute ...
... to be confused with another Mark who used to comment here...
We have shown that we have failed in working together on a global scale to beat this. Now it’s too late and our selfish western approach will cost us most likely the world as we knew it. But our leaders are full of false hope and lull the population into ...
National's only mistake was signing up to the convention on indigenous peoples in the first place and giving indigenous rights any credence
Thanks for this Brigid - --I always thought there was something extremely dodgey about the guy!
... of medical geneticists led by Mark Achtman that analysed the genetic...
"It's my sense that what we're seeing is not so much what most people think of as 'genocide' in the sense of a lot of dead bodies" That is the impression and effect the Western propagandists such as yourself are trying to convey, lol!
"I doubt anything much good happens inside of them." What's wrong with de-radicalisation and vocational training? Similar to the same sort of de-radicalisation camps set up in the West and modelled off them: China: Xinjiang camps take similar approach to ...
