India:

"China is illegally occupying Indian territory. India hasn't violated China's sovereignty, yet Chinese projects continue in Indian territories"

Whole neighborhood complains about China

Acc to China, they are all wrong

What are the odds?

Xi Jinping’s pledge means nothing.

1. Xi pledge not to militarize island in SCS.
2. Xi pledge not to hack US
3. Hong Kong 50 years of Autonomy
4. US-China phase 1
5. Xi pledge not to help Russia.

The CCP isn’t just trying to defeat its adversaries militarily.

Senior member of Taiwan’s Foreign Affairs and National Defense Committee, Wang Ting-Yu, says it’s trying to divide societies from within through disinformation.

“Air fighters, destroyers, missiles, drones… of course, [the threat] is real.”

“Our psychological defense line is the most important thing.”

“Communist are always using fake news and disinformation… to penetrate your society.”

“Through that disinformation, people don’t trust your government.”

“That kind of disinformation sabotages society and divides it into pieces.”

“I think [that] is the most dangerous thing caused by the CCP.”

China invaded Tibet 76 years ago

It has illegally occupied Tibet

Tibet is not part of China, and it does not belong to China

“China has weaponized access to critical minerals and supply chains, and are using it against Japan perhaps more than any other country in the world... I think all have an interest in diversifying our supply chains so we can never be held hostage again in the future by anybody.” @SecRubio

I trust they discussed the laundry list of issues straining the US-China relationship right now, like:

- Communist China interfering in U.S. elections

- Communist China’s brazen disregard for human rights like the unjust imprisonment of my friend, Jimmy Lai

- How Communist China should stop placing blockades around Taiwan and stop trying to isolate and intimidate them, risking a catastrophic global conflict

- Ending the use of exit bans on Americans, and allow Americans and unjustly detained individuals in China to leave

- Communist China using supply chains as a weapon against the West, including in pharmaceuticals and the heavy reliance of America’s military on dangerous medicines made by Communist China

- Communist China’s trade cheating and the need to fully comply with the Phase One Agreement; no transshipping, theft of IP, price controls, subsidies and tax incentives for favored state industries, discrimination against foreign entities in trade matters, and forced tech transfers

- Communist China’s continued grey zone warfare tactics against our allies, especially in Japan and the Philippines

- Communist China’s tactics to influence US domestic policy, including its collusion with California to drive its “green energy” agenda

- Communist China’s efforts to undermine anti-CCP candidates in the United States through its official diplomatic facilities, including the consulate in NY

- Communist China’s state-led and supported efforts to steal US data and to undermine the security of the US grid

VW is looking at massive job cuts as sales in China collapse and cheap Chinese imports invade Germany

Every company that has made itself dependent on China, has ultimately paid a price. China opened their market to steal western technology and replace western companies🔗

China invaded Tibet in 1950.

China continues to illegally occupy Tibet.

Tibet is not part of China.

The #PRC’s live-fire drills are designed to coerce #Japan, #Taiwan🇹🇼 & the #Philippines🇵🇭 simultaneously. When leaders of #China say “strategic stability”, they behave the opposite way. It’s #Beijing’s norm, proven once again.

[Michael Ron Bowling @mrbcyber]

The US just black listed two more Chinese Universities over security concerns

The problem with targeting individual institutions in China is that they all ultimately work for the CCP. They can be told at any time to assist with espionage and they must comply. Whack a mole🔗

中露両軍の艦艇が日本周辺で共同航行を続ける中、本日（24日）、ロシア軍のIL-20情報収集機がオホーツク海を経由し、宮城県沖の太平洋上まで飛行しました。
ロシア軍の活動は日本海やオホーツク海のみならず、東北地方沖の太平洋上にも及んでいます。

防衛省・自衛隊は、引き続き、中露両国の軍事動向を強い関心を持って注視するとともに、対領空侵犯措置・警戒監視に万全を期してまいります。

27 years!

27 years of persecution.
27 years of torture.
27 years of families torn apart.

It has been 27 years since the Chinese Communist Party launched its brutal campaign against Falun Gong.

Millions have been imprisoned, tortured, and persecuted simply because they chose to live by the values of truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance.

Their stories deserve to be heard. Their courage deserves to be honored.

The world must not stay silent.

本日、日本最東端に位置する南鳥島周辺の排他的経済水域の海底に存在するレアアース泥の「採取試験」の結果が公表されました。

今回、世界で初めて、約6,000メートルの深海から引き揚げた、「約50トン」のレアアース泥の成分が判明しました。

なかでも、レアアース泥に含まれるレアアースの３割を占める「イットリウム」は、世界的に稀少であり、半導体製造装置のコーティング剤や、排気ガスに含まれる有害な窒素酸化物を浄化する触媒をはじめ、半導体や自動車産業などで使われており、我が国にとって重要なレアアースです。

今回の成果を踏まえ、来年2月、本格的な採鉱試験を実施する予定です。
海洋研究開発機構（JAMSTEC）をはじめとする関係各位のご尽力に改めて敬意を表します。

レアアースをはじめとする重要な物資については、特定国に過度に依存することのないよう、サプライチェーンの強靭化に向けた取組を、官民を挙げて、取り組んでまいります。

根據日本政府觀光局公布的最新統計，2026年上半年，赴日中國旅客較去年同期大幅減少了56.4%。然而，日本上半年外國旅客消費金額卻達到4.85兆日圓，再創歷史同期新高。

少了中國遊客，日本沒有垮，反而賺得更多。為什麼？

因為台灣、韓國、東南亞以及歐美旅客迅速補上了缺口，而且停留時間更長、消費能力更高。日本終於證明，一個成熟的觀光市場，不需要把命運綁在任何一個國家身上。

更值得思考的是，中國從來不只是把觀光當成觀光。

近年來，中國多次把旅遊、貿易、市場當成政治工具。今天限制日本旅遊，明天禁止日本水產品。過去也曾經以類似手段制裁韓國、施壓台灣。在中國眼裡，市場不是自由經濟，而是「外交武器」。

比起日本，台灣還有一個更不能忽視的問題——國家安全。

絕大多數旅客都是單純來旅遊的，但我們也不能否認，確實有人利用觀光、商務或交流名義從事統戰、情報蒐集，甚至執行跨境打壓。近年來世界各國都開始重視這類風險，因為民主社會最大的弱點，就是過度相信所有人都懷著善意而來。

我自己在台中遭到暴力襲擊，警方調查也認為案件疑似涉及境外勢力介入。這讓我更加相信，面對來自威權國家的風險，政府不能只計算能帶來多少觀光收入，更要思考可能付出的國家安全代價。

因此，對來自高風險地區的人員，有必要建立更完善的入境審查機制。

減少對中國市場的依賴，不是仇視，而是降低風險；不是拒絕交流，而是拒絕被綁架。

真正強大的國家，是即使失去中國市場，依然能夠繁榮發展、守住民主、守住自由。日本正在走這條路，我相信，台灣也應該如此。

China is seeking to eliminate Tibetan identity. This is “genocide” as that term is defined in the Genocide Convention of 1948.

China shamelessly disregards evidences of bullying just like it denies all the wrong doings?

There are recurring videos of China Cost Guard harassing vessels of smaller nations especially Philippines.

It is plain & simple that China doesn't care about peace. @leisbeth_recto
