China’s electric vehicle industry is a total disaster. It’s getting so bad, it’s wrecking other areas of China’s economy—and threatening people around the world, too. But it’s not just China’s dangerously low quality cars. It’s worse.

There are a lot of channels (including this one) talking about the private space race, but few are paying much attention to what China’s been doing. Shut out of international space missions for 14 years, they have built their own program, with a strong commitment to the moon in 2029. And their track record has been beyond impressive. Today we’ll discuss the Chinese space program, plus topics relating to tragedies in Kpop, ancient wisdom around meteorites, and the future politics of Mars on today’s lightning round video.

At the end of May, Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri led a delegation to the United States and met with Defense Undersecretary Elbridge Colby.

TSMC: The Company That Rules the Global Microchip Market | Chip War | FD FinanceWatch ‘Haier: From small Chinese Fridge Maker to Global Industry Giant’ here: • Haier: From small Chinese Fridge Maker to … A new world order is taking shape before our eyes. The Covid-19 pandemic showed the extent to which great powers are dependent on strategic products. The persistent shortage of semiconductors, essential to our daily lives, is reshaping geopolitical relations, fuelling inflation and increasing tensions between America and China.It is estimated that 10 million cars worldwide were not produced in 2021 because manufacturers did not have enough semiconductors. From the computer to the toaster via our tablets and our refrigerators, microprocessors or semiconductors equip all our daily devices. They are of national strategic importance powering all advanced military and civilian technologies. Yet while demand for the quantity and quality of semiconductors has been growing, the amount of places they are produced has been shrinking. Only a few countries have the specialised knowledge and ability to produce cutting-edge chips with 63% of all chips produced in Taiwan.That one island, which is already on the frontline of a superpower struggle between the US and China, dominates production means that the world’s economies are dependent on the stability of Taiwan. So what can be done to secure microprocessors? And how is the battle for semiconductors already affecting our daily lives?

Taiwan’s first domestically-made submarine prototype, known as the Hai Kun, has been spotted floating in a harbor in Kaohsiung. Local media have reported that the submarine is undergoing testing, which experts say could signal sea trials, which have been delayed, are getting closer.

China’s EV maker BYD has come under fire from competitors for waging a suicidal price war. The EV giant is now being called the “Evergrande of the auto industry” due to its hidden debt problems. A Hong Kong research firm recently revealed that BYD’s net debt may be ten times higher than the reported figure. The company has been offloading its financial liabilities onto suppliers and forcing aggressive sales quotas onto dealers. If BYD defaults, it could drag down the entire EV industry in China.

As the trade war heats up, the US is putting sanctions on China. But are they enough to stop forced labor? And enough to slow the CCP’s military buildup?

The CCP is desperate for cash to fuel its global expansion and influence. And one Middle Eastern country is more than happy to provide billions of dollars. The US is not happy about this (except all the American elites who benefit).

We’ve learned that the CCP is secretly behind some of the anti-ICE riots happening in LA, working behind the scenes to make sure that the money they got from heavily taxing their peasant farmers goes to middle-class American progressives willing to cause civil unrest. That—and so much more—in today’s episode. Hosted by Shelley Zhang, filling in for Chris.

This man described the major flooding disaster that occurred in North Korea last year. According to Daily NK, the flooding along the Yalu River caused extensive damage to homes in parts of North Pyongan Province and Ryanggang Province. The Pyongyang authorities mobilized over 120,000 people within four months to undertake large-scale reconstruction efforts. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un personally promised to initiate an astonishing “North Korean speed,” completing disaster-resistant housing in just four months, designed to last 50 to 100 years. North Korean state media loudly claimed that the affected areas had been transformed into “model socialist villages admired by the world.” But many residents are concerned about the quality of the buildings, given that high-rise buildings were rapidly constructed in just three to four months

On June 9th at noon, the container ship “Wan Hai 503” under Wan Hai Shipping suddenly exploded and caught fire. The violent explosion caused a large fire, destroying many containers. The accident resulted in six crew members being injured, and four are still missing. As of June 10th, the fire remains out of control. The ship is suspected to have explosives on board, which could be one of the reasons for the explosion. Currently, the ship is drifting without a crew, releasing thick smoke and toxic gases. Because it is carrying a large amount of hazardous materials and fuel, it poses a potential threat to the southern coast of India.

This is a secretive military base in the middle of the Indian Ocean, on an island called Diego Garcia, the largest of the Chagos Archipelago, at the junction between South Asia, Southeast Asia and Africa. On May 22, the U.K. signed an agreement to return sovereignty of the islands to Mauritius, with the exception of Diego Garcia. The island, which exclusively houses the joint U.S. and U.K. base, will remain in British control under a 99-year lease. Critics argue the move could expose the base and islands to Chinese influence, given Mauritius’s friendly relations with Beijing.

Let me walk you through the key events—chronologically—that chart Xi Jinping’s gradual loss of power. It all began in April 2024, when rumors surfaced about one of his most trusted PLA generals. From there, things began to unravel, culminating in a health crisis that hit Xi over the summer. Any one of these events might be dismissed as coincidence. But viewed together, they point to a single conclusion: Xi Jinping no longer controls the regime as he did a year ago. And his biggest threats may be his own health—and his top military deputy, General Zhang Youxia.
