This is a good one, when I was young in the 60s growing up in HK, China was poor! Mom told us to eat our food because people in China starving. How time has changed, now China has plenty of food and America is starving. 這故事講得真好。我年輕的時候在香港長大,是60年代,中國很窮!媽媽告訴我們,要吃飽飯,不要浪費,因為中國人民還在挨餓。時代變了,現在中國糧食充足,而美國無錢,零元購,搶劫,糧食劵才可以活命.
Who cares to come to US, we lives in US constantly have to deal with gun violence, homeless people, drugs and as Asian got daily attacked by the White House, white senators and congressmen hiding behind MEGA are probably members of KKK. SCMP: Europe is expecting a wave of Chinese tourists. Should it thank Donald Trump? 誰會來美國呢?我們在美國生活,總是要面對槍枝暴力、無家可歸遊民、零元購, 毒品等問題。而且,亞裔更耍每天在遭受白宮的攻擊,躲在MEGA背後的白人參議員和眾議員很多可能就是三K黨成員。 《南華早報》:歐洲正在迎來一波中國遊客。歐洲應該感謝唐納德·川普嗎? 當然應該多謝川普,川建國. https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3321240/europe-expecting-wave-chinese-tourists-should-it-thank-donald-trump?
I commented on Trump- Putin meeting with our SF China Group as follow (John is White Jewish and retired medical doctor graduated from Harvard)
John: it will depends on whether you see the glass is half empty or half full!
Remembered Trump said once he became US President will end the Ukraine war in 24 hours. Anyone follow the war knew it was a lie and it is still a lie.
Trump has no choice but to talk to Putin. Even if nothing happened still looks good on US medias, remember he is going after the Nobel Prize!
Trump insiders especially the Chinese hawk (hater) want to pull Russia back to US side to contain China. Putin is smart called Xi a few days ago assuring Xi and informing Xi Russia’s bottom line. That is exactly what we will do in consulting when we act as a consultant for a new client when there could conflict with our old client to get their approval! We call it integrity and trust factors. US has none, go out to screw anyone at will including friends and allies!
Let’s not forget Ukraine is fighting a proxy war against Russia for US. US is the judge, jury and executioner! It is nothing but a Hollywood show.
Russia will never come back to US as long as Putin is alive. That is why there is a regime change in the work against Putin. But I doubt the US could win. Russia is not the HK in 2019.
Russia and EU have little chance to improve as long as EU remains a vassal of US and US got EU balls. EU is never a united front to do anything except since they are White, they hated China just like US! If anyone don’t believe Chinese yellow skin is an issue in the White men world. For Chinese it is time to wake up. Unfortunately even many Chinese in this group have fantasy, little action only lips service. It is sad indeed. But I respect their decision to stay in US.
The war will continue probably until Russia takes over the Capital of Ukraine.
Almost 300 billions spent on Ukraine is now a debt by Ukraine to US and EU.
Ukraine is the biggest loser, followed by EU. US who started the war the biggest winner will get all the reconstruction projects 100% paid by EU plus getting all of the Ukraine natural resources! Russia also a big winner getting Russia speaking provinces.
China is also turn out to be big winner got energy security from Russia. A friendly Russia meant China does not have to worry about Russia from the north. Russia also open up North Pole sea routes for China’s belt and road, a warm water port 海參威 (it was China’s territory before ceded to Russia) in Russia territory across from Japan for Chinese navy to use. In terms of military defense, even without a military treaty, they will coordinate their nuclear forces aiming at US for deterrence. Don’t forget Russia has some of the best nuclear submarines, one could be sitting right outside the SF Bay aiming nuclear missiles at us as we speak. China nuclear submarines is now as advanced as US and Russia. What takes US to build one destroyer, China could build 3-5 and China has a dozen of shipyards doing the same.
We are not even counting that China now has 3, could have 5-6 aircraft carriers in 5 years.
Therefore the Alaska meeting, we can’t just look at a single event.
When I study history in HK, we look at current event backward through history what lead to the current event before drawing a conclusion.
In America everything is now, short term. For China with 5,000 years of history, China will play Taichi and 孫子兵法 with you to see who is the last one standing. I will not even bet 1 penny on US long term survival going forward. The way we do thing this country is finished! The death of another empire is forthcoming.

American logistic expert reports from China video: Are stock investors valuing Chinese companies wrong? Shipbuilders and the monopsony problem. 美國物流專家從中國發回的報告影片:股票投資人對中國公司的估值是否錯誤?造船企業和買方壟斷問題.
Two giant Chinese shipbuilders are merging, and going public on the Shanghai Stock Exchange at an expected valuation of $16 billion.
The combined companies are by far the largest shipbuilder in the world, with an order book of over 500 ships from commercial sectors, and huge contracts with the Chinese Navy.
America’s largest shipbuilder is Huntington Ingalls (HII) which has a market cap of over $10 billion. HII is a Pentagon supplier, with contracts for Ashleigh Burke destroyers, amphibious ships, and repairs. On average, Huntington Ingalls delivers two large ships per year.
Supply chain troubles may be in store for HII, as they were put on China’s export ban list for critical minerals and metals, which the firm needs to build destroyers and other vessels for the US Navy.
American logistic expert reports from China video: Trump single handed destroying US tourism industries! US tourism collapses as China, then Canada, then Europe stay away. Brazil will be next. 美國物流專家發自中國的影片報告:川普一手毀掉美國旅遊業! 美國旅遊業崩潰,原因是中國、加拿大和歐洲都對美國旅遊業敬而遠之。接下來將是巴西.
Global tourism is booming in 2025, with every major market reporting strong recoveries from pandemic-era slumps.
The US market is the sole exception, with steep double-digit percentage declines in international travelers from almost every country.
Industry analysts were prepared for deep losses in the Chinese segment, as a result of radical changes in travel and visa policy.
But the global reaction to the tariffs has also demolished inbound travel from most other markets. Travel from Canada, by far the biggest source of tourists and tourist spending, is down over 40% on the year. All European countries are down 15% or more. And new concerns center on Brazil, which is the source of most tourists inbound South America.
Airlines are restructuring flight schedules and routes to serve the growing demand for international travel to non-US destinations.
