Taiwan's democracy is not for sale "Winnie the Pooh."

I seriously hope Taiwan will become an official country in the future soon. China honestly has no say and no power over the island, especially when Taiwan already has an effective government functioning without any assistance from China.

From the 3 super power countries in the world: USA, China and Russia is China far above the other 2 countries the best country. I am 100% white Dutch, born and living in the Netherlands. So I am not a "China Bot" or "Social credits", etc. If you have freedom of opinion, than this is my freedom of opinion, no matter if you like it or n. China is the most stable country in the world, had the best economy, controls the Covid the best, does not invade and bomb other countries like USA and Russia; does not steel from other countries like USA stealing oil from Syria, does not do terrorism on other countries like USA bombing the North Stream line (a destruction of 200 billion dollars investment in order to force Europe to buy heavily overpriced LNG gas from them; respects governments in other countries (China do not invade or bomb other countries, because the local government is to their personal standard) China helps other countries a lot like Afghanistan (the only donating country in the world at this moment) and to Pakistan. USA invaded and occupied Afghanistan for 25 years and for no reason and no result. China invests a lot in schools, hospitals and infrastructure in Africa and Europe. China invest a lot in Infrastructure in his own country: 10.000 mils freeways/motorway, a network in high speed trains, efficient airports. Compare this with Russia and USA (those countries invested almost nothing in infrastructure the last 10 years. China does not deliver weapons to Russia or Ukraine (which make te war worser and worser) nd does not force other countries to donate weapons like USA do the European countries. China does not sanction other countries, like USA do to European countries if their European slave countries do not obey dictator country USA. China is very advanced in IT (5G is a Chinese product); China is also advanced in pharmacy, helped lots of countries without conditions with Covid masks, medical supply and even medical staff like to Italy, Iran and Servia. 90% of the people are very satisfied with their government (compare in USA is only 35% satisfied with Biden administration (results from Harvard university investigation). China is the best, the most sincere, the most helpful, most peace loving country in the world. We all should learn from China.

From his speech, China will be moving backward. US chips control and restriction will hv serious impact on China in every industries. In just a few weeks to months, China will feel the impact and will be screaming for help.

Taiwan is independent. What bull shxt is he spouting about?

[johnfoo]

Notice Xi's speech is all about China and the people's welfare. Not about how to sanction, attack or intimidate other countries like what US loves to do. Fruit for thought.

[bobafett]

*Xi needs to implement that Common Prosperity plan and crackdown on those high end networth individuals to save the economy and boost the morale of low income earners*
