Comments on China building influence in East Timor
What's the matter with China wanting to help itself on E. Timor's riches?
I'm sure Australia has already done the same...
What's the point of promoting such a biased report? denigrate China or envy? Don't forget Al Jazeera has such a tradition.
Starting from a guess without evidence, middling with some local people "voicing for the mass" and ending with a malicious "prediction", all these are common tricks some western media can play against China. Having been looked thru his nudity, the king is still moving without clothes.
Nothing unusual about another country raping East Timor for it's resources. Just about every foreign "AID" that enters that place comes at a price.
Maybe after 50 years of construction and "help" it will end up like Zimbabwe.
It's bad only if that country is China. Shameless western hypocrisy.
Thank you peopel China.
God Bless Us
