He's using the same methods ... including making some things looking better than they are. But that does not matter. What matters is, that the outcome for all people good, and everyone can live in peace and stability, and has a chance in life to fulfil their wishes. I wish Rwanda and it's people a great future!

Ryanair is not always cheap, and the service experience can be quite nasty. EasyJet is mostly good. Eurowings is also ok.But always check the fare of the conventional airlines, too. They are sometimes pretty good offers considering that their service is better.

@tstcikhthys Materially not. So, what do you mean?

@kencheok1769 Exactly. Not that Malaysia is doing bad, as SA does. But you could do so much better.

@kulturfreund6631 We maintain traditionally an excellent relationship with China. But with regards to the trains, they raisin-picked from France, Japan and Germany and combined these.

Fascinating how the Chinese commenters here reflect the Chinese government "teachings" about the West being out to destroy China.

Spatharios, the Germans actually like Russia. I believe many Russians also like Germans, despite of our difficult history. Mr. Putin speaks fluent German. I doubt that many Germans have a feeling of cold war towards Russia. We do not need to agree every single point, but we want and we do respect eachother. I believe that applies to many EU countries.

South Africa's security industry likes the situation as is. It keeps them mighty and wealthy. Telling them to make the country secure is like telling a cigarette producer to work for stop smoking. This bogs the entire country down.

The Chinese high speed trains are not really cheap. The normal ones are.

Then more passengers they ship around, than more flare-up of infections will happen. That means traffic load will only be predictable again after an effective and cheap vaccine is available ... worldwide!

Now I understand why they don't want to let Tibet go off, and why they are so interested in some rocks in the Pacific Ocean! However I do not agree with this. The Chinese believe Tibet is historically China, I think they teach the kids in school. May be the Romans should claim Germany until the Rhine, the Spanish all of North Africa, and India the entire South East Asia :)

Climbing up in the indicators without relationship to reality is as well a method that Singapore mastered well. Mr. Lee did however cared to build up his successor generation. Not intending to degrade the Singapore success story but it's the truth, to me at least.

... and no loan from China?

@mitchmazamez1989 I do not know, why should I. But I do know borrowing from China is the same as if you go to these shark moneylenders.

@acd23_lists Most of these countries can't get a loan from a bank or whatever serious institution. But Afrika would and will thrive in the future anyway. And then, the stone-old men of the CCP will sit together in a Beijing restaurant and drink rice wine, congratulating themselves how well they managed to own Afrika's infrastructure.
