This news from Australia is creepy as hell. Imagine being a Chinese dissident trying to escape the horrible CCP and then when you get to that apparent ‘safe’ country you see a Chinese police car? This is seriously disturbing stuff!

Chinese Communist Party leaders have said that China doesn’t have a drug problem, but that’s only because the CCP makes sure it doesn’t have a drug problem. They don’t mind, however, if the US and other countries China opposes have a drug problem. In this episode of China Unscripted, we discuss how China is silently winning the opium war with the US, how China is taking advantage of the US push for electric vehicles, and how US politicians are being controlled by Chinese money. Joining us in this episode is

In an unprecedented event, the Chinese banking sector is witnessing a sweeping wave of industrial action, the epicentre of which is Shanghai, China’s financial powerhouse. On May 11, the headquarters of the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank (SPDB), a banking giant ranked ninth nationwide, turned into an amphitheatre of dissent, teeming with striking staff. Recent annual reports and industry data, released by listed securities firms in China, reflect a sobering reality of substantial dwindling in average empl

According to state media sources, China has chosen to establish pilot programs to promote a friendly atmosphere for childbearing. This is the latest step the world’s second-most populated country has taken to increase its declining birth rate.

It’s a chip off the old block! China has been caught potentially using old out of date chips and claiming it as their own new tech! It’s a joke.

Rep. Michael Waltz, R-Fla., discusses national security concerns China currently poses as the Biden family could potentially be implicated in foreign dealings with the adversary.

Solomon Islands Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare has not held onto power because of his popularity with the people, but despite it. This is thanks to the help of China, specifically Chinese money and security. This corrupt dictator has quashed protests, bribed his opponents, delayed elections and set the Solomon Islands up to become a military base for the Chinese Communist Party. In this episode of China Uncensored, we sit down with one of his former advisors, Celsus Talifilu, who later went to work for So

On May 8, Shenzhen citizens found a significant reduction in their social security pension balances. Some people’s accounts even shrunk a third, the most loss reached 120,000 RMB, around 17000 USD.

The controversy grew to such an extent that the balance inquiry function of the Shenzhen social security system was promptly suspended. Following in the footsteps of Sha

US president Joe Biden has said on several occasions that the US would defend Taiwan militarily if China were to invade. The US has also sold weapons to Taiwan so it can defend itself. And it has reportedly sent specialists from the US military to train the Taiwanese military. But the question remains, is all this enough to deter China? Can the US prevent China from going to war to take Taiwan? In this episode of China Unscripted, we discuss what the US can do to prevent a war over Taiwan, whether the West

#Chinainsights Why didn’t the PLA test-fire missiles this time? It’s likely related to what happened in August 2022. At that time, in retaliation against U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, the CCP conducted military exercises and fired 11 missiles, 5 of which landed in Japan’s exclusive economic zone. The biggest problem for the CCP is that Taiwan won’t be fighting alone. The Chinese navy is blocked by the long chain of the first island. As long as the U.S. and other nations work tog

Although there are factors of global economic downturn, the main reason for all of this is the Chinese Communist Party’s three-year strict execution of its zero-COVID policy

President Joe Biden has committed the US to defending Taiwan militarily from an invasion by China.

A popular YouTube channel, Lei’s Real Talk, has computed China’s GDP in two different ways and draws the same conclusion – it is way lesser than the $18 Trillion that it claims.

During the last decades, China had an unprecedented economic growth. It became the world’s largest exporter. In other words, it became the world’s factory. And the key element driving its economic growth was its huge working-age population. In other words, the factor that played a central role in China’s economic model was its cheap labor force. However, to the surprise of many, China today, not only is no longer a cheap country, but in global terms, it is even expensive. So, the questions are: why is Chine
