So, with the collapse of the real estate company, and the fallout, does that mean that there is going to be less Deng Xiaoping style usage of capital inside of Vietnam?

stephenthinkpad posted:You have to look at it from the north faction/southern faction dynamic POV. The Vietnam power structure is spread out to 4 top roles and they are usually equally split between the northern side and southern side. Now this real estate bank failure scandal has pushed the scale to the northern side and they took the 3 out of 4 roles. Was the real estate banking scandal thing primarily a product of the southern side?

Eminent DNS posted:Was the real estate banking scandal thing primarily a product of the southern side? Based on the fallout, looks like it. The Northern side is traditionally more from the military/security branches. I would like to know more but honestly there is not a lot of information in Eng. Also Vietnam signed a partial HSR deal memorandum with China recently, so you can take it as a sign that the northern faction has won the power struggle in the pro-China/pro-US debate. The population is still pretty anti-China mind you, but pay attention to new infrastructure or power plant deals in the future.

But even if you don't take their words, the northern economic still has a lot more connection to the Chinese manufacturing than the southern side, which lean more on tourism. stephenthinkpad has issued a correction as of 22:46 on May 13, 2024 |

is it appropriate for a dialectical materialist to set a funerary altar venerating an ancestor there was a line in the sympathizer on max saying they cant or at least shouldnt but i have no idea whether thats based on anything in the actual philosophy or just the usual communists hate religion rhetoric

if the ancestor was working-class you set up the altar. if the ancestor was not working-class you exhume their body and drag them through the street with children kicking and throwing rocks at them while the local seniors scream obscenities and accusations at their decaying/-ed head in preparation for the most brutal cadaver synod, or "struggle session", your community can muster

I'm going to go be going on holiday to Taipei in about a month and I'd like to take suggestions on places to go right now the only places I'm really dead set on going to are the Ximending night market and the Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall and the surrounding area.

I've always had a soft spot for the ways of honouring the dead that also happen to be arts and crafts projects. And reminded of that webcomic where a sentient robot burns an effigy of himself in the name of his deceased former owner, so that he may serve him in the afterlife. Because y'see, if robots don't have souls, then it's a loophole through which they may still enter the afterlife anyway.

I used to think the chip bans could be strategically justifiable if you squinted your eyes and believed that the Biden administration just really bought into the AI hype but at point it's really hard to understand this is anything but naked racism
