China and the World, 2023-2024



August 7, 2024: China remains as the World’s Top Vehicle Exporter in the first Half of 2024
China remained as the World's largest Vehicle Exporter in the first half of this Year of 2024 since surpassing Japan last Year of 2023. Chinese Automakers exported 2.793 million Vehicles worth Usd 55.2 billion from January to June of 2024 compared to only 2.0177 million by Japan. 

China’s dominance may go down though as Chinese Vehicle Manufacturers like BYD and Chery are now building Factories in Europe to localize the Production of their Vehicles there.

February 26, 2024: China beats the US to be the Number One Diplomatic Power in the World
China is now the Number one Diplomatic Power in the World ahead of the United States (US), this according to the 2024 Global Diplomatic Index Report made by the Lowy Institute which is based in Australia

The Report based this on the number of Diplomatic Postings that a Country has around the World, and China leads this with 274 Posts while the US which came in second only had 271. China reportedly has the edge over the US in Africa, East Asia, the Pacific Island Nations and Central Asia


February 10, 2024: Dragon Drone Show in Nanning, China during the Chinese New Year Celebrations
Just a nice Video of 2,000 Drones forming a Dragon in the Sky as Part of the recent Chinese New Year Celebrations in the City of Nanning in the Province of Guangxi in China. 2024 also is the Year of the Dragon as per the Chinese Zodiac Sign. 

Drone Shows like these have become more common now in China than the traditional Fireworks Displays and they definitely are more entertaining in that they can form complex Figures in the Night Sky.

November 23, 2023: China’s “Win-Win” Philosophy 
Here is a good Article about China’s “Win-Win” Philosophy when it comes to Negotiations, meaning You and I both “Win” or gets something out of the Negotiation instead of just You win it all, or I win it all. Here are some excerpts from the Article: 

* “The U.S. may have learned its Lesson after a Decade of Confrontational Geopolitics with China. It has now come to the Table seeking Chinese cooperation on the vital Issues of the Times, including the restoration of Military-to-Military Talks between the two Countries that will now be revived and precursor export curbs on certain Drugs

For Asia and ASEAN, there is renewed hope that the juvenile niggling Activities of  the Philippine in the South China Sea may be chastened by the accommodation of its Uncle, Sam, for the sake of Win-Win Cooperation

October 21, 2023: How China’s BRI and GSI promises Prosperity and Peace on a Global Scale
A nice Article about how China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and its Global Security Initiative (GSI)… hold the promise of Prosperity and Peace on a Global Scale”. Here are some more Quotes from the Article: 

* "The BRI, born in 2013, is not just an immense Infrastructure Project. It is a Testament to China’s commitment to fostering Economic Development and connecting Nations, Cultures and Economies across the Continents of Asia, Europe, Africa, Latin America and beyond"

* "the BRI is a Gateway to a World of Economic Stability and Security. Economic Development and Security are intrinsically linked. The BRI’s Infrastructure Investments promote Economic Stability in Partner Countries, reducing the potential for Conflict that often arises from Economic Hardship"

October 14, 2023: China’s BRI is celebrating its 10th Anniversary, Sangley International Airport supposed to be part of it
Here is a good Feature about China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in celebration of its 10th Anniversary. I've been reading also that China is coming up with another Summit for this Program and majority of the South East Asia’s (SEA) Leaders will be there, like Vietnam, for example.

But for the Philippines, with Bobong Bong's Pro-United States (US), Anti-China Foreign Policy, I am almost sure he won't be there, I doubt if he will even be invited in the first Place.

The Sangley Point International Airport (SPIA) Project was supposed to be a BRI Project, but the US and their Pinoy Canines vehemently against it to stop it. It now has new Investors, but up to now they haven't started its Groundbreaking yet
