China has warned the G7 leaders that the days when a "small" group of countries decided the fate of the world were long gone.
The G7 leaders must read this brief lesson in history. They should be ashamed of themselves.
And now the million-dollar question...????
9. Why are the G7 members see China as a threat even though China is the only major nation on earth that has never invaded or occupied another country?
Ego or fear of retribution?
The comments, by a spokesman for the Chinese embassy in London, come as the leaders, who are meeting in England, seek a unified position over China.
They adopted a spending plan in response to a massive Chinese scheme. US President Joe Biden is determined that Western powers need to act now to counter a resurgent China. Joe Biden is promising more financial support for developing countries hit by the climate crisis, and funds for infrastructure projects in the developing world, an alternative to a Chinese programme.
President Biden said he wanted the US-backed Build Back Better World (B3W) plan to be a higher-quality alternative to Beijing's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The scheme has helped finance trains, roads, and ports in many countries, but has been criticised for saddling some with debt.
Joe Biden is like telling a joke because US does not even have 1 high speed rail.
China High-Speed Rail
High-speed rail (HSR) in China is the world's longest high speed railway network and most extensively used -- with a total length of 37,900 km by the end of 2020. The HSR network encompasses newly built rail lines with a design speed of 200–350 km/h (120–220 mph). China's HSR accounts for two-thirds of the world's total high-speed railway networks. Almost all HSR trains, track and service are owned and operated by the China Railway Corporation under the brand China Railway High-speed (CRH).
High-speed rail developed rapidly in China over the past 15 years. CRH was introduced in April 2007 and the Beijing-Tianjin intercity rail, which opened in August 2008, was the first passenger dedicated HSR line. Currently, HSR extends to all provincial-level administrative divisions except Macau and Tibet. The HSR network reached just under 38,000 km (24,000 mi) in total length by the end of 2020. The HSR building boom continues with the HSR network set to reach 70,000 km (43,000 mi) in 2035.
The advent of high-speed rail in China has greatly reduced travel time and has transformed Chinese society and economy. A World Bank study found "a broad range of travellers of different income levels choose HSR for its comfort, convenience, safety and punctuality."
Notable HSR lines in China include the Beijing–Guangzhou high-speed railway which at 2,298 km (1,428 mi) is the world's longest HSR line in operation, and the Beijing–Shanghai high-speed railway with the world's fastest operating conventional train services. The Shanghai Maglev is the world's first high-speed commercial magnetic levitation ("maglev") line, whose trains run on non-conventional track and reach a top speed of 430 km/h (267 mph). In 2020, China started testing a maglev prototype train that runs at 600 km/h and aims to put a 500-km-long high-speed maglev line into commercial use by 2025.
US should follow China
Implementing high-speed rail (HSR) will provide the Americans with more transportation choices. It will also make sure that the people remain an economic engine, and meets the environmental and energy challenges of this century.

high speed rails, don't be silly , china incured massive losses in this sector, mostly already grounded.

China government prepared to lose money for building roads and rails base on a simple mantra, to get rich, and prosperous, one has to have good connectivities in roads and rails. This is one main way to eradicate poverty.
The rural areas has highways that are toll free, extended to even remote areas that currently has few inhabitants.
Only fools will repeat the blatant lies that most high speed rails are grounded due to loses.

While the US was pouring money into Afghanistan, in this futile war, the Chinese were developing first-world infrastructure… and I’m in New York, and I’m watching [my] car bumping around.

PRC should have been in a very good position now. Unfortunately its credibility is extremely low at the moment due to the manner it dealth with its covid epidemic. The other problem is it does want to abide by the rules based international order whenever it does not suit her. Examples: refusing to abide by UNCLOS; the ICJ decision in its dispute with the Philipines; and, not keeping with the sprite of its treaty with UK on HK. It has put the international community in a difficult place ..litting the whole world on fire with covid and causing countries to go on an arms buying spree to protect themselves against a possible invasion...

china is a giant country with a few clearly defined redlines such as scs, HK, Taiwan.... other than that, China is a responsible member of the international community

clashes with old colony masters is inevitable... anyway they g7, are becoming irrelevant, they don't know it only

US only eksport to Latin America is arms so many Latin America countries are a failed state because many warlords are king of the hill drug carter.

PRC is catching up with US in science & technology, but is very much lagging behind in propaganda war as the MSM is mainly west leaning. What we know about PRC & the west today is what the west leaning MSM wanted us to believe. When the MSM keep repeating the same lie everyday, eventually the readers would believe the lie as fact.
Rule based international order at the moment means the west set the rules for others to abide by. Developing world had little chance for input in setting the so called international rules.
US refused International Criminal Court investigation of war crime committed in Afghan, but insisted to investigate Xinjiang China for genocide. While asking China to abide by UNCLOS, but US itself does not join UNCLOS. While UK accuse China of breaking promise in treaty of return of Hong Kong, UK is ready to break international law with regards to Brexit. While encouraging HK people to demonstrate against government & protest police brutality, UK Parliament now is debating law to disapprove public protest with the slightest excuse, and give legal immunity to police for carrying out duty , including murder & rape ....

now surprised how western media and politicians frame China... merely surprised got Malaysians don't see China point of view.

eventually China point of view will win because it makes sense, differences do frame the world, learn to accept differences and make peace surely better than war

I mean Malaysians do travel to China and see the progress there and see that it is not that dark evil empire, unlike Americans voters who. generally don't even have a passport

The most prolific sources of fake media is from...... Most of them are of very low quality and can be easily noticed by the average person.. In my view, most of this country's problems arise from its desire "to catch up with the west and overtake the west"... If you see this as a chess game, you would have notices the series of diplomatic mistakes made...and it does seem like ending...no worries on that score
2021-06-18 15:17
drchangkc, good input many won't easily get to acknowkedge.
China has its humanistic nature thus never thinj how to cheat or tell lies, not the western media. For that reason China's media are behind
western in telling lies or create fake news.

Mr. Deng is the better communicator able to tell the simple true quote– "Black cat or white cat, if it can catch mice, it's a good cat." And sell his idea of socialisme + capitalist + market economy as socialism with Chinese characteristics to China people.
He give interview to western media and met/talk direct to western leaders what China intend to accomplish (The return of HK and Macau. One China two system policy)
Mr Xi told officials on Monday it was important for China to tell its story in a positive way.
"It is necessary to make friends, unite and win over the majority, and constantly expand the circle of friends [when it comes to] international public opinion," he was quoted by Xinhua as saying.
He said the country should be "open and confident, but also modest and humble" in its communication with the world.
Mr Xi also said the party's propaganda organisations must make it clear that Beijing wanted "nothing but the Chinese people's happiness and good fortune".

KYY is again full of SHXT.
China declared war against 11 nations, then 8 nations came to fight China. At that time China was giving 50 ounces of silver for killing one whiteman and 30 ounces for killing one white boy.
Few years ago, the defence minister of China said they would like to fight 80 countries. Now only 10 countries mah.
Now every free country in the world already agree that as long as China stop abusing international laws, they will only suppress China in a few key areas. That's by god's grace already.
A very wise man Mr. Tan(譚嗣同)said in China 100 years ago, "if China's soldier is mighty, then the world will suffer. Be it white people, red people, black people may all face extinction like Qing dynasty did to the Junggar people. It's by god' grace the world suppress China so that the tragedy won't happen to all of us. "

The shops around the scenes are written in simplified chinese. And there is a text hard printed to the video said "In Taiwan".
The video tried to show how low quality Taiwanese are. Taiwanese must be bad at making decision about things.
