What‘s going on in Thailand? At some point they were thought to be becoming another Asian tiger but now they are firmly stuck in the middle income trap with low fertility rate with no way to escape. I was shocked to even see that the share of tourism in their GDP is at about 20%.

First, I will make sure to gain firm understanding from our allies. Then, I will also gain understanding from neighboring countries. My goal is to create an environment where we can mutually pay respect to those who died for their countries. -PM Takaichi

Palmer Luckey knows his followers are dumb thinking he can glean info from a mock-up. Then Americans do think China can make an exact copy just from looking at something. No need to engage in cyber espionage.

Makes shitty drones that don’t work but still gets billions in valuation/kickbacks. Pretty much the U.S. defense industry scene in a nutshell…

From now on, China should encourage Chinese fishermen to form flotillas and loiter in the immediate vicinity of the Diaoyu Islands (if not also the rest of the Ryukyu island chain, violating Japan's EEZ once in a while), with CCG vessels stationed in the vicinity. It should be noted that ramming and water-spraying between the cutters and fishing boats from both sides will become the norm, similar to what has been happening in the SCS for the past few years with the Philippines.

Through such maneuvers, China should dare Japan to open the first shot - Let's see if there's anyone hot-headed on the opposing side, whether that be a JCG cutter crew, a JMSDF warship crew, or someone higher up in Shinjuku and/or Chiyoda. However, the Chinese side should avoid actions that would result in the first death on the Japanese side as much as possible.

Beijing needs the casus belli, and we shall see if Tokyo wants to deliver that.
