Re: The Hong Kong Protests
Here is the Chinese mainland view on the situation. Over 470,000 rally for peace in HK At the beginning of the rally, a video was played, featuring a recording of a policeman’s wife who spoke, choking back sobs, of how violent protesters stormed the police stations and attacked the police. She appe...

Re: The Hong Kong Protests
I haven’t forgotten either things. Neither of them negates my reading of the situation which is based primarily on talking to HKers and other friends who are in HK right now. They are all of the view that the protests are getting out of hand and far from helping them get what they want, it is more ...

How to insult a car
Saw this in your local paper this morning. https://m.phnompenhpost.com/sites/default/files/styles/two-col/public/field/image/untitled-1_50.jpg?itok=FV1AKETc Official transferred after pointing at car with foot It's got to be one of the most bizarre things I've read for a while.

Re: The Hong Kong Protests
No they haven’t. The fact the protests are going on does not negate the fact that annoyance of it prevails. Your logic is silly. There are 7.5 million HKers. 100,000 may be protesting; it’s a stretch to assume the remaining 7.4 million either support or oppose the protests. Most HKers want to maint...

Re: New UK PM is Boris Johnson
There is no way in hell parliament, the EU or congress will support the breaking of the Good Friday agreement. Only a complete nutter would want to do that. Over to you, TGR. The 'backstop' actually breaks the GFA anyhow, and the EU is overly keen on using it, so your post is piffle According to le...

Re: Rainsy Sets 9 November As Homecoming Independence Day'
Well, after watching those Cambodians standing around watching an LPG cloud engulf them, I suppose anything is possible. Keep the population uneducated and sell them a bogus opposition party and an MFI loan (or two) (or three). It's 2019 and they have been financially and politically included. :thum...

Re: Rainsy Sets 9 November As Homecoming Independence Day'
It's my understanding that Sam Rainsy is the leader of the dissolved Cambodian opposition party.
Are you seriously saying that in fact there isn't and never was an opposition party in Cambodia?

The Chicken War: A Battle Guide
Seeing as TGR has brought up the WTO and GATT, and The US republicans want the UK to break away from the EU, I thought it would be interesting to remind ourselves of some GATT history. Especially interesting when viewed through Trump's protectionist MAGA eyes. Recently, there has been talk of a new ...

Interestingly, BJ said he doesn't want to leave without a deal, but that powerful people are trying to push things that way. "Hammond said Johnson had privately promised him that he wanted to get a deal with the EU but said there were people “pulling the strings in Downing Street … whose agenda is d...

Re: The Hong Kong Protests
In late July and early August, the People’s Daily, the mouthpiece of China’s Communist party, published various commentaries that seemed to outline an unfolding strategy to counter the protests. The pieces drew a distinction between violent extremists who have used opposition to the extradition law ...
