7·1 day agoAnd what exactly has that to do with Canada’s official report(s) on election interference?
Here you can find the latest with all the links: Government of Canada Publishes Election Security and Integrity Reports Covering the 45th General Election
There is much more on the official site. Among others, it reads:
Furthermore, in previously noted behaviours, the PRC has been observed engaging in transnational repression activities, which involve a range of tactics designed to exert influence and control beyond its borders. These tactics include leveraging PRC-based relatives and other connections to pressure those in Canada to refrain from adopting views the PRC sees as hostile, or to return to the PRC, and threatening PRC-based family members with an array of potential coercive actions, including detention or financial penalties.
To avoid collisions?
Did you read even the paraphrased summary?
“They can jam, blind, manipulate, or kinetically disrupt satellites”
Even if you assume the data is accurate, you can’t infer from your picture that Chinese workers benefit more from productivity gains than workers elsewhere. For such an inference you needed more and other data.
Your picture proves nothing.
Gini is only one metric. Even if we assume the data is correct, it is not better than in Europe or Western democracies. But many experts don’t believe these numbers. Gini is based on official data provided by the Chinese government, hence not very reliable.
Social inequity in China is also higher by all comparitive standards. And Chinese workers’ rights, women’s rights, rights of minorities (essentially all other than Han- Chinese) are much weaker than in the West.
Given some numbers I’ve seen, so far they have done better in this regard.
Which numbers are that?
What is the ‘evil’?
Quick reminder what caused the protests that have been going on in Serbia since November 2024.
Three weeks ago, six people, including a former Serbian minister, were arrested on Friday over their involvement in reconstruction of a railway station in Serbia’s Novi Sad, whose roof collapsed last November killing 16 and triggering Serbia’s biggest anti-government protests in decades.
… The six are suspected of inflating invoices from a consortium of the two Chinese companies - China Railway International Co and China Communications Construction Co - who were given the task of reconstructing both the railway station at Novi Sad and tracks, the [official] statement said.
They are suspected of damaging the state budget by $115.6 million, the statement said, and also said that by inflating invoices the Chinese consortium benefited by $18.8 million, but gave no further details …
What an absurdly weird take.
