    Wow; this is scary stuff, like something out of a dystopian novel.... Imagine if the SS, Gestapo, Stasi, KGB had been able to do this........... And the report is from France 24 a legit, reliable news source. and to think how much we rely on China. They have certainly played the "long game" to gain control. No; I'm not a conspiracy theorist!

    China plans to rule the world one way or another and the may well just if countries continue to rely on them for trade as heavily as we ourselves do.

    Actually that's kind of old news, it kicked off about 6 years ago.

    Are you suggesting that China does not have a unique culture?

    Bingo!!!! On the button son.... China don't have elections.... they're in the middle of a western Consumer colonization program.. They knew that if they made shoes, clothes, and high volume parts and strategically important items cheaper than what the west could for 30 to 40 years. That the skills and knowledge of the western world would be lost!!! Now that the western societies no longer have Taylor's and Cobblers factories or the people with real tradesmen skills and real life transferable knowledge....
    I know how to rebuild starters and Alternators, machine, test,and assembl
    them to last and give great service.... But I can't buy the repair kits anymore. A new genuine CAT Delco starter is $5k and will last for 8000 hrs.
    A Chinese copy lasts??? HRS and costs thousands less..... The real kick in ya Principles is that the NZ taxpayers paid for my Trade training in government built polytechnics full of English lathes vices welders and books full of information and amazing knowledge. We sharpened drill bits made drill gauges and lathe tools. Learnt about electricity and let me tell you something!!!! Electricity hasn't changed since!!! Just how much deception can be designed into making impossible to repair the items that use it... Our biggest problem and downfall is that we have no desire to protect ourselves from the desires of other countries....

    Being Chinese myself, I doubt that the PLA is willing to share information on brand and model of their weapons with the rest of the internet.

    Eh?

    The people of China have made some great things over the years.

    Take a look at their pottery.

    Or all the ornaments the Brits nicked from China during the Opium wars, half that shit is probably sitting in the V&A in London.

    The question is not what's their long game.? BELT AND ROAD! anyone?
    We need to get OUR long game sorted! We've seen what happens when you take away the time, you take away the opportunity to build prepare and educate yourself to be ready for any and all situations that may arise!!!

    Instead of gazing outwards in hope of seeing the answers. Look inwardly for solutions to any of your weaknesses and get busy with robust solutions that will help not hinder your foundations....

    Yes make roads in other countries next to big service stations that are wide enough and long enough to land your forces planes helicopters and the fuel tanks and infrastructure are all there to support their invasion of your lands!!! I'll be blowing up the local ones as soon as i see them coming and i trust that the rest of the NZCA will join in and do the same??? (NEW ZEALAND CIVILIAN ARMY) It's the pig hunters and deer stalkers that will defend This country! Not some twat with a cellphone App!!!!!

    Many years ago was helping pull mines out of the ground in places like Cambodia and Mozambique. One nasty little Chinese mine was a A pers mine known as a type 72b. It had an anti disturbance circuit built into it. You would open the mine up and what was staring back at you? a silicone chip with the 'M' of Motorola stamped on it. They would sell their grandmother if there was a buck to be made
    Yeah, but was it a real Motorola chip, or a ripped off one...
