But I get the impression that the listening is a bit one way .....and then we don’t mention a lot of things they should listen too in case we ‘upset’ them ....is that mutual respect?

Nobody is perfect, not even us ; But actually - I think the Chinese are a hell of a lot better in listening to and respecting others than our so called "friends" in the US. Could you imagine anybody being worse in listening to and respecting others than Trump or the people who put him into power?

Rubbish.

Americans are very good trade partners. mainly because they work using the same western time frames as us. The Chinese are a whole new level - they take a much longer view of things. This doesn't make them untrustworthy - it just means we have to get better at understanding their game tactics.

Take off the blinkers. At least in the newer history it is the Americans breaking contracts as their bully president pleases. Give me one example for an international agreement the Chinese have broken. US is in the business of breaking their word and their contracts. Remember - its America first, anybody else does not matter.

But we probably should move this discussion on a more appropriate thread ...

I have heard that Western people tend to plan in 10s of years while the Chinese plan in the 100 years. Why do you think they are buying water bottling plants for?? Water will become the new gold in 50 years time. You cant eat or drink gold in large quantities.

Agreed.

The behaviour and actions of Trump & those who support him are best indicators of a nation in terminal decline, which like Rome before its demise attempts to subjugate other countries and peoples through pure military might.

The threat of 5G & Huawei to the US - in great perspective!

And our Jacinda swallowed it whole.

In the good old days, yes.

Not since they started pulling the wool over everyone's eyes with their so-called trade deals which have the world (especially China & Asia) supplying goods & services at cheap prices - with the yanks paying by their ever growing debts!

Then, there's the GFC etc etc.

Talk to the folks in ex-Telecom and they will tell you how the Americans played NZers for suckers - buying a world class company, stripping out billions of dollars of returns and left behind a second rate telecommunication company and infrastructure.

Seems while some have concerns re Chinese plans to increase their domestic milk supply, the Chinese Navy recognise a profitable product when they see it and stock up before they leave Australia.

Here's the story and pics. Great advertising for A2. LOL

Reminds me of Doomsday preppers. Maybe they know something we don’t...

I read an article on scmp saying how China is moving to decrease reliance on trade for items that pose a risk to the country. So it's not just milk. Good job trump lol. We now have less and less to protect the world from the risk of war.

Relax.

The mutual destruction via nuclear war doctrine still applies.

Americans love their easy lives too much to risk annihilation.
