It was Japan's "leaders" who brought it to war, and too many of them are still saying the most stupid things.

Bite the hand that feeds you, China.
Meanwhile, China's rated a AA- with S&P~ I wonder why?

It's been used as a tactic for economic growth in other countries. Why wouldn't China use it?

How can anyone respect a state that uses the death penalty? If death is so wrong, the state should have no business killing people.
Posted in: Recently, the death penalty has been handed down in lay judge trials. If executions continue to be delayed because of politicians' personal views, public confidence in the law will be shaken. Executions should be carried out within the set period.

Seems like the Philippines need to be worried most. I mean, the Chinese have drawn lines right up to its shores.

Depends where you put your mobile - and for how long you keep it there.
Everything in moderation!

Say what? Terrorists running rampant in Pakistan? Hard to believe.
I'm sure things will calm down after the Chinese start paying off & buying out this sad country. Oh, wait~ Did China just blame Pakistani terrorist-training camps for their latest terrorist incursions in Kashgar?
Looks like the US and China have a big arm-wrestling match coming up in Pakistan.

Which government, YuriO?
The Chinese government has plenty of respect for the islands Ryukyu Kingdom. Japanese "respect" towards the American occupiers of Okinawa is what happens when you lose a war. Time will tell.

Literally.

These guys are opposition lawmakers. Could this be one of the reasons they are not in the party that actually leads the government?

I disagree. The drivers are usually OK, but the cab itself is tiny. Nothing beats a London taxi.

HSR where? In China, no. Not safe.

That likely would have happened before Weibo (twitter) but it seems the government can't - or won't - kill the story completely. The Railway Ministry is taking the heat for this. Sure, they could just shut Weibo down, but that would seriously harm the government.

Pukey2, try "Canadian" eh~
The Chinese have been trying to sell "its" HSR technology without any regard to foreign contribution toward its development. Sure, it's a false claim and their disregard for IPR should be challenged in every jurisdiction.
My bigger point is that those, like Wang, who were so proudly claiming China's railway technology is better than Japan's are now backtracking.
