LOL! No offence to any Singaporeans here, but Singlish is one of the most annoying sounding English accents in the world. If not the most. This example in the video is actually softer sounding and more pleasant than what you would normally encounter there.

Don’t forget that according to the Dutch themselves, Nexperia China chips are uncertified and whose quality can no longer be assured. What do they want with knock-off low quality chips anyways?
“We were informed by China that they will enable the resumption of supplies from Chinese factories from Nexperia,” Schoof said in an interview Friday on the sidelines of a climate summit in Belem, Brazil.
A resumption could set the stage for the Netherlands to relinquish control over Dutch-based Nexperia, which is owned by China’s China retaliated by imposing export restrictions over components from Nexperia’s Chinese facility, which accounted for about half of its pre-crisis volumes.
I am continually impressed by just how level-headed and patient China is. The reality is, they could've really hurt European industry for a few weeks/months just to make a point, but they chose the high road yet again.
What will happen to Nexperia's Dutch assets remains to be seen, I suspect China actually wants to see what the Dutch will do now that they've been given a bit of reprieve. What Netherlands will do next will probably determine whether China goes punitive or not.
If you are referring to Royals. than they dont share anything with India or for that matter any one. but Gulf Royals practically manage the whole world and the sole winner of the previous cold war. I think half million Chinese UAE residents when the place already got expensive.
When this migrant flow started to Gulf Kingdoms they generally brought only male and without much rights. since they dont had families they will get free air tickets. and more travels to home countries. this led to rise of Boeing and Airbus. which in turn increase Arabic Soft Power and that soft power created enormous influence and intelligence.
today example. this Abraham Accords is between Israel and Royals and Kazakhstan Join it even though it already has diplomatic relations but this extra step is nod to that Soft Power.
What a shame, I would have loved seeing China economically nuke the Dutch.

Well I’m amazed how even some in this forum get upset that Chinese have too much pride and demand it to stop when something prideful happens for the Chinese. Who ever heard of that where there’s pride police watching to see if Chinese are displaying too much pride for themselves? And you wonder why Chinese culture is seen as a blight…? If you don’t have respect for yourself, don’t expect anyone to have respect for you. The say nothing/do nothing Chinese don’t help either. It’s always the same Chinese that also believe to not stick out because that only brings negative attention to oneself. Those who think that’s what’s best for all are actually only thinking what’s best for themselves. The reason why they don’t just say it’s really their selfishness here is to trick people into going along. The reason why you have people policing behavior is because they’re worried about their own personal image. They’re worried about how someone else will see them because of what someone from their own family, nationality, or racial identity does that personally reflects upon them. They’re worried about their image to others. And the only reason you worry about how someone else sees you is because you value their opinion as the only thing that makes you who you are. When you hand over control to someone else of who you are, they’re naturally going negative because resources are finite and they want to eliminate others as much as possible from getting what everyone else wants. You’re basically volunteering to be eliminated when you say nothing/do nothing.
The reason why you see what’s happening in places like Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan is because they don’t see what’s there to be prideful in being Chinese especially when the Chinese are avoiding being prideful themselves. The Chinese cultural trait of respecting authority no matter what today means respecting an authority (the US and the West solely because they have the power and money in the world) that racially hates you. If they look at you as less then everyone else looks at you as less because you automatically value them as an authority no matter what even when they hate you and you say nothing/do nothing about it. And why this self-inflicting contradiction? All because the Chinese don’t like chaos and instability in society because of history, so they demand respecting authority no matter what in order to prevent it from happening. It’s like arguing that Hitler was a man for peace. If everyone just did what he wanted without question or challenge, there would be peace. There would be no war if everyone just obeyed. Same logic. You think there’s something proud in thinking that way?
Those like in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Taiwan look towards the West not because they embrace democratic values. Ironically it’s because they’re very Chinese. The US and the West are seen as the authority in the world so that’s who they’re sucking to and that’s simply it. If they embraced so-called Western values like democracy, would Hong Kong activists think it was okay to beat people in the streets just for not on the spot going along with them like what did happen? That’s a contradiction to democratic values but it’s very Chinese to just do whatever is seen as what an authority wants in order to suck up to them. Taiwan was a police state until only recently. Despite being an ally of the US, they had to be convinced to embrace democracy. Taiwan sent assassins to kill Taiwanese journalists living in the US that were critical of the police state government. Here in the US you have the Chinese community who suck up to the US hating on Mainland China but they’re afraid of their children becoming Americanized and demand them to follow Chinese culture. Look at how every now and then a newbie shows up in this forum thinking they’re teaching everyone here something new when they’re actually typical. They come in here complaining how can any Chinese criticize the West when living in the West. It’s called freedom. The Chinese that hide behind freedom but expect Chinese not to exercise it as a sign of respect to the authority in charge.
Chinese don’t like individuality. They expect all Chinese to follow and obey without question. Why? Because they think those things bring chaos and instability to think for yourself. You know how you counter that? It’s called Chinese having pride. And all those that think of themselves first don’t want the Chinese to have that.

Shein is now a Singaporean company not a Chinese one, it's just that their products are made in China. in that case they should get zero support from China. if they get sanctioned to death then let them die. let Singapore protect them. if they die their factories would be bought by whatever local Chinese companies that would want them.
