China's belt and road initiative has its trousers around its ankles and is covered in potholes.
They obviously thought it was a good idea to build a remote city on reclaimed land beside the ocean where nobody wanted to live. No doubt a lot of the sunk money will actually be chinese loans to malaysian companies effectively now under loan shark China's influence and control, all part of the strategy.

Every china and se asia fund has been doing badly, japan and india unaffected. The hang seng index is about 50% of its all time high. When/if there is a minor recovery I'm selling. Financial world is finally realizing that dictators can't be trusted.

Re: evergrande as far back as 2012.
Muddy Waters Research is a good read, not that I've tried to make money out of them. Chinese companies (the ones that actually exist) have always been treated with scepticism by western analysts due to their selective accounting and fictional data. They have been dropping like flies from western indexes including US directives to remove all companies with links to the chinese government e.g. spying or military.

Potholes? Really it's more like 'sinkholes in what is left of the UK. One week of frost in January 2010 and the holey neighbours all moved in and aren't showing any inclination to leave. At least China's potholes will be a bit newer than those!
Scoff scoff scoff.

If you look at the Chinese property developers you see lots of monsterous mega developments (in China and overseas) that are either not finished or not occupied.
Certainly puts the Bolton loan on COL into perspective.

Switzerland are flooding the UK with counterfeit stamps. No wait I got mixed up, it's actually China. Keep buying those products though to support the dictatorship about to invade Taiwan. Might be worth dumping your Asia stocks before it happens.

Given that anyone who receives a letter with a fake stamp is charged £5 by Royal Mail, I wonder if it is just a plot by RM to top up their profits.

Automotive spy machines.
"It warned cars that are connected to the internet "regularly use their cameras and sensors to record detailed information on US infrastructure; interact directly with critical infrastructure; and can be piloted or disabled remotely"."
