I do wonder whether this apparent shift towards China and things Chinese has something to do with the US’ waning influence in the Middle East.
Not much was made of the peace pact between Saudi and Iran which was brokered by China, but its there, and its real. |

QUOTE(Atoz 1 point 1 auto @ Aug 31 2023, 10:14 AM) My personal opinion is, Fair point. But it also takes leaders with courage to initiate the change. Saudi Arabia is very much lacking natural resources like water, river, rain and greenery, except sands and oil Because of this lacking, they have to be more alert and learn to see things more deeper and further before crisis arrived Malaysia is a land overloaded with natural resources, most of us only learn to eat, eat and eat, hahaha. look at the way they build NEOM, you will understand they see things more deeper and further than others due to the lack of natural resources https://youtube.com/shorts/iJeIVyxp_No?si=8ND3oaQGjtuJmg7I  Sadly I don’t see leaders of that caliber back home. dwks and Atoz 1 point 1 auto liked this post

If one disengages the baggage of culture and ethnicity thats usually associated with language, then language is exactly what it is, in its essence, a tool to communicate. And why not arm oneself with an additional tool to communicate? Meis liked this post

We might end up being more Saudi then the Saudis themselves.

QUOTE(propriete @ Sep 20 2023, 07:20 PM) The problem with Malaysia is if you are racist, you are hero. Everywhere in the world racist are mostly seen as disgrace. Though they may be bias inside but still not want to be seen as one. Plaza lowyat incident comes to mind. Only in Malaysia can a thief be lauded as a hero. |
