#StatueOfUnity in India is the world's tallest statue.
Indians got angry upon learning that an art foundry in China made the outer façade made up of 1,700 tonnes of bronze plates and 1,850 tonnes of bronze cladding. China kept mum at Modi's request but Indian media revealed it.
For angry Indians likely to attack me for fake news on India hurting Indians' national pride, here is an article by an Indian journalist. China keeps a low profile shipping the bronze plates to India in total anonymity.

Lots of countries want to own signature icon mega constructions to promote national prestige, to the great joy of Chinese engineers. They are capable of building anything. The condition is that they keep silent of their exploits if they don't want to draw anger and rage. 😃
BBC should run title like: India now owns world's tallest statue, but at what cost! Cost a fortune and huge contract given to China promoting Chinese artistic engineering for the world to see!
I heard to keep the secret, Chinese side didn't set foot on Indian soil. They were given 3D scans & photos. So China turned several thousand tons of bronze into statue & had the plates shipped to India. To assemble & fix the plates together and onto the structure was also a feat!
Indian denial: can't be true it's made in China. Opposition journalist made it up to smear Modi... 😃 Image

Latin America's US$ trap explained:

US$ supremacy means it's an international currency. In many countries, US$ can come in & leave as it likes. Thus emerging economies are extremely vulnerable to US$ movements which US Federal Reserve can manipulate through interest rate.
Thus, US can program the cyclical economic prosperity and crisis in many countries. Both are useful for the US to reap the accumulated wealth of countries.

Have you wondered why US stops at no means to make every country adopt market economy allowing unrestricted
capital movements? When US talks about freedom, it's the free capital flow they have in mind. That's the politically correct way for a country to exist in this world, because only this can enable US$ capital to control the world.

How you wondered why developing

#Xinjiang

According to locals, Xinjiang is the birthplace of oriental carpets (Iranians, don't kill me. I'm quoting Uighurs) which are Xinjiang's main export commodities. In the Uighur town Kashgar, a whole street is dedicated to carpets. Best pieces are on display in museums.
So far, the Victoria and Arabia Museum in London, the Textile Museum in Washington, D.C., and the Handicraft Museum in Frankfurt, Germany, all have Xinjiang wool carpets or silk carpets in their collections as treasures on display for visitors to admire.

Iranian carpet dealers confirmed to me Chinese Xinjiang carpets are extremely competitive in the international market of oriental carpets. I suspect the carpets in their shops are probably.... better keep my mouth shut. 😃

Pierucci is a household name in China now. Learning from his experience, Meng Wanzhou categorically refused the traps in the banana trial, ie, the guilty plea and the fines.
Here's a translation of his article of the imperative emancipation of France from the claws of Washington
"Since the end of the Second World War, the United States has not ceased to try to nip in the bud the rare European attempts at strategic, military, space, economic and digital independence. With the help of certain very Atlanticist politicians,
the vassalization of Europe in most areas, even in the governmental domain, is almost total. Pushing their pawns, the United States is now trying to embark us in an all-out economic war (which could degenerate into a military war) against China in which we have absolutely

Xinjiang is the hottest tourist destination in China. There are lots of ethnic dancing and singing in Xinjiang in the street for tourists. This is called tourism promotion. Why should people get so angry and scream propaganda?

#USIndustrialNazism

US frequently arrests foreign company executives and puts them in prison. These companies usually paid out colossal fines, were dismembered, appropriated or faded out of the market. No country has put up a fight & won except China.
Let's do the case study of France's Alsthom.

There was a popular saying that 1 out of every 4 light bulbs in the world is powered by Alstom's technology.

Alstom was once the pride of French industry, with operations in more than 60 countries around the world,
an annual turnover of more than $16 billion and more than 110,000 employees. It is the world's No. 1 in hydropower equipment, No. 1 in conventional islands for nuclear power plants, No. 1 in environmental control systems, No. 1 in high speed trains,

China's COSCO has acquired 35% stake in Container Terminal Tollerort in the German port of Hamburg. Without this deal, the German port won't be able to compete with other European ports under more efficient Chinese management. So despite anti-China forces, the deal went through.
China is allowed to acquire 35% of the stakes, for the simple reason 35% of the business comes from China.

Note China's port efficiency is the highest in the world. There's a huge jam at the Los Angeles port now, causing US supply chain interruption, inflation, consumer panic
and social unrest...

The Port of Los Angeles with 82 shore bridges completed a record 9.2 million TEU in 2020; China's Yantian port (YICT) with 85 shore bridges completed 13.34 million TEU in 2020.

U.S. ports operate from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,
