yes i believe you are correct , but NOT right away , and maybe not in my lifetime

i am trying to increase exposure to India , but be careful India still has it's traps and excesses

but China is still liable to be a strong No.2 in the longer haul

What does it cost to keep some of these people on location? Probably a million bucks a year, for salary, housing, schooling, travel.

‘All my neighbours are moving to Singapore’: Expats flee Hong Kong

In Hong Kong, rents in high-end enclaves are plunging, international schools are closing, and the car market is saturated with second-hand luxury cars as expatriates leave in droves.

Meanwhile, according to this guy, Biden has completely screwed the Chinese Chip supplies.
Similar to what Peter Zeihan has been saying.

When Biden screws someone,it tends to be the western populace.
Might be time for China to send a few million drones to Ukraine

China don't want the Ukraine war to escalate. The chess player they are they know if tactical nukes are used it opens up a brand new chapter in nuclear arms race.
Looking 10 moves ahead some asian players such as Japan will also want nukes, and they probably can get their hands on them or develop them.

For it not to escalade, they need to ensure Russia holds..so the drones

Yeah maybe, its a very slipper political game. If they are seen as the ones fuelling the war they risk more sanctions. If Russia falls also not that good for China.
However I think China got all the wanted from this war, seeing the international community response, seeing how far and much usa is willing to support etc.

The best outcome for China would be de-escalation, a slow quiet war at worst and a half victory for Putin at best.

hmm rock and hard place definately.

btw did you know Turkey has nuclear weapons as part of the Usa nuclear sharing program? I never know until not long ago, the whole escalation will push more Usa allies to push to be part of the program. Won't be good for China nor Russia... for nobody

Especially Armenia, no one here gives a **** it seems but a whole civilized and Christian region is under Islamist and Turk attack right now, and their only help is Russia while Biden provides the weapons to slaughter them..
Once again, if you are not Muslim and friends with the Saudis and the Bin ladens of this world, US bombs are heading your way.
A democrat signature: Serbia, Russia, Armenia and also Yemen if you remember.
So I would expect non Muslim countries to soon turn to China, no high hope but at least they will support you against trades.

The level of corruption in the US is too high for them to be saved IMHO and China will prevailin medium term.
Now, time to rush and get that computer and mobile replacement quickly as I guess they will soon become rarer
