The Chinese are stockpiling resources – food, fuel, and materials – to help it endure a protracted conflict with the US. Is this something to be concerned about?

China has begun 2025 with a near continuous presence of its 165-meter “monster” coast guard ship in the Philippine’s exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off the Philippine coast of Zambales. A further 60 to 70 nautical miles to the west is Scarborough Shoal, seized by China in 2012, but located within Manila’s EEZ. The West Philippine Coast Guard says Beijing seeks to “normalize” its presence in this area and thereby change the status quo. In this show, South China Sea expert, Liu Fu-kuo, said that Chinese reports show it plans to militarize Scarborough Shoal to enhance the feature’s strategic value, with Beijing waiting for an appropriate time.

“China Eastern Airlines’ domestically-made C919 aircraft had a mechanical issue. I specifically chose flight MU9199 to Guangzhou to experience the C919, but China Eastern told me the C919 had ‘mechanical issues.’ The flight was delayed for over an hour, and they replaced the aircraft with an Airbus A321. What’s the point of paying this price and booking this flight? There were cheaper and earlier flights available. I believe many customers choose this flight to support and experience the C919. This plane is only two years old—how can it have mechanical issues so easily? If they’re going to switch planes, shouldn’t they apologize or compensate customers? With service like this, I probably won’t choose China Eastern again.”Join this channel to get access to perks:
