Are these said researchers? Might explain why they are rushing home.

“The information Zheng stole was related to the design and manufacture of gas and steam turbines, including turbine blades and turbine seals. Considered to be worth millions, it was sent to his accomplice in China. It would ultimately benefit the Chinese government, as well as China-based companies and universities.”
I know you cant back up your claims. You are just here to stir up drama.
So no source?
So he is correct? You like death and destruction?
Are you a psychopath?
The actual colonialism happening in Taiwan is what US has been doing there since WW2.
So the US is still colonizing Taiwan? How did they even “colonize” Taiwan?

We were talking about this. I said IMF loans are cheaper than china loans. And you proved me correct so the next best thing was nitpicking my comments? Who cares if a loan directly or indirectly benefits a nation.
Go grab some tea, revisit your nonsense and write a proper reply. Im not going to do the same thing as last time in which you refused to read the article everyone except you was discussing.
You make the exact same argument a bigot would make.
But you people also like Che, a massmurdering homophobic and racist man so this doesnt surprise me in the least. This is likely one of your milder bigoted opinions.
A rescue loan is not a loan used to build infrastructure. They’re used to cover for existing debt, not to take on new debt.
A loan with an interest rate of 5% is charity

so you neither understand project funding nor interest rates
You cant even provide facts. Stop arguing in bad faith. Now go schizo post about US loans.
I love how you start using that emoji when you get frustrated.
Rescue loans are not the type of loans being used to build these railway networks lol.
Do you even know how IMF rescue loans work? Did you try Google buddy?
I wont even entertain your dumbass ramble about different countries because we arent talking about that.
First result in Google. You cant even Google so im pretty sure you dont know what the hell you are talking about lol.
Im sorry, I didnt knew you were the victim all along. I thought you were the one who is starting all the drama. My mistake. How can I make you feel better?
wish you happy seething and coping
Friendliest lemmygrad user right here.
I like how you wont comment on the maintenance contracts.
Its not an debate. I wasnt talking about other devices, you just misread it. Easy as that just move on.
I like how you ignored the part in which chinese companies force the governments to sign 90+ year maintenance contracts. Convenient as it isnt part of the loan, just part of the bribery.
African countries are foregoing Western investment because of the number of strings attached
What strings?
here’s a (very) competitive interest rate
IMF loans are cheaper. Every person with two braincells will realize corrupt officials will take the chinese loans with higher interest rates because of the bribes. A 90 year maintenance contract is nonsense and you cant defend it.
still no source.
