Nope. The ChiComs are collapsing. Belt and Road as a massive failure. Their internal contradictions are starting to force them to come apart at the seams. And their energy demand soon will curtail much of what they do.
I’m reminded of Speer’s big building projects for a failing Nazi economy.
To wit: Golden Finance 117— completely empty huge skyscraper
Forest City Malaysia 100 Billion dollar ghost town, off shore secret development invested by Country Garden (China’s largest.Xi Ping put a 50k cap on spending out of country— destroyed the development. 200 Billion in debt still)
Yu Zhong—outside 50 billion dollar copy of NYC financial district-—copies of the buildings. Completely empty. Since 2015.
Evergrande Lotus Flower football stadium- failed 1.7 Billion dollar (covid 19 lockdowns etc.) Second largest property developer in China— no US bankruptcy in 2023. Evergrande is bankrupt. 300 Billion dollars in debt. Stadium is unfinished.
Some 2,000 plus ghost cities. Ordos, KunMing, Evergrande Splendor City,Tianduchung (fake Paris replicate),Yujiapu (manhatten replicate), Thames Town (London replicated),
Chinese are not allowed to invest outside of china beyond 50k= so they are infiltrating the US. They should be prohibited— some States are taking action to prevent foreign ownership of US land and property. Particularly chinese-communists and their front companies.
