Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Just like mainland China was bluffing about taking shoals and turning them into military bases. Chinese textbooks see the ascendency of the west as an aberration of history since imperial times.

Examining the progress made in South Asia.

China’s Vision for the Belt and Road in South Asia
What progress has the BRI made in South Asia thus far?
By Antara Ghosal Singh
March 02, 2019

As China celebrates the fifth anniversary of its Belt and Road Initiative, South Asia has clearly emerged as a “priority zone” in the Chinese scheme, particularly, with the highest density of early harvest projects. Given South Asia’s strategic location at the intersection point of the China-proposed Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, Chinese policymakers are of the opinion that having a foothold in South Asia or securing economic integration with the region is not only crucial to consolidate China’s strategic presence in the Eurasian hinterland but also to thwart any future attempt by its adversaries to confine China in the East Asia. Therefore, despite many challenges, China remains steadfast in carrying out its Belt and Road vision in South Asia.

So, what exactly is that vision?

A research report released by an authoritative think-tank in China, titled “Opportunities and Challenges for Belt and Road Initiative in South Asia” (PDF, in Chinese), deliberates upon China’s long term vision of opening up South Asia through its Belt and Road Initiative and tracks the progress made so far in that direction.

According to the report, China’s Belt and Road Initiative in South Asia includes four subprojects: the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), the Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor (BCIM), the Trans-Himalaya Corridor, and China’s cooperation with Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives under the 21st century Maritime Silk Road.

The Philippines’ China Dam Controversy
By David Green
March 27, 2019

Millions of people in Metro Manila were left without water last week, raising pressure on indigenous communities in the mountains above the Philippines capital as the government seeks to tap their terrain for supply.

Residents were forced to queue at fire hydrants, and businesses reliant on water, not least laundrettes, closed or suspended operations.

Public ire is being leveled at Manila Water, the private concessionary contracted in 1997 to manage water and wastewater services to the eastern area of Metro Manila on a 25-year lease.

Civil society groups have accused the company, which is majority owned by venerable Philippines conglomerate Ayala Corp., and invested by the United Kingdom’s United Utilities and Japan’s Mitsubishi Corp., of putting profits before its public service obligations.

Manila Water’s failure to secure the city’s water supply has also sparked criticism from legislators demanding that the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS), the agency charged with administering the privatization of the capital’s water systems, penalize the company, and refund consumers.

Manila Water blamed the crisis on unexpected demand from the construction industry, shortages in the primary water source, the Angat-Ipo-La Mesa system, and delays to infrastructure projects designed to bring additional supply onstream.

The latter includes a series of dams in the nearby Sierra Madre mountains, known as the New Centennial Water Source – Kaliwa Dam Project, which have been mooted as a solution to Metro Manila’s water requirements since the reign of Ferdinand Marcos.

The dam falls under the Philippines’ involvement in China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), and is listed in provisions released following the state visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping to Manila in November last year.

Never mind the Philippines. Even the bloody Italians have signed up for it! No more brains than Sri Lanka.

Just saw on the news ABC that China has just completed it's fifth base in Antarctica . Australia has just one and has always claimed about half the Antarctica area from its history and early exploration in the area. I can see a repeat of the China sea's problem coming up here.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
