What is power? It’s not just muscle or wealth It’s the privilege of being assumed that your experiences are universal, while everyone else - China - is exceptional “Nobody asks these classical economists, whose arguments are based on England three centuries ago, how their theories could apply outside 17th-century England. Those theories are automatically taught in classrooms and used to justify policy prescriptions across the developing world, including Africa today.” @uscnpm uscnpm.substack.com/p/who-gets-to-…
People no longer examine arguments; they investigate affiliations.
@bikoy The longer it takes to make a clear framework of this initiative, the higher the chance it will be hi-jacked by misinformation and disinformation on both sides. I honestly think, America also doesn't have a clear roadmap of execution. They are leaving it to the private sector.
@ruima @TechChinaTrek This is the best tech in China! Apparently, it was invented by a Chinese - Korean engineer in Changchun in Jilin province.
My politics is whatever this is.
Ten years after the landmark arbitral ruling that struck down Beijing’s 9-dash line claim over the South China Sea, one thing is clear: the dispute didn’t end in 2016. In this @straits_times multimedia package, we take a closer look at the competing historical claims, the legal questions, and how the dispute has evolved over the past decade. straitstimes.com/asia/east-asia…
@pretentiouswhat Cool list! Would be interested to see if those citizens have some sort of "citywalk" local trendy districts.
@bikoy Did you find Latin American delegates resonating with Beijing message as well?
@tessgarcia They should. But what is the legal definition of a cult? I think that's where they need to start.

Why did private firms, not state-owned enterprises (SOEs), come to dominate China’s EV sector? My new @ChinaJournal article (co-authored with Xiao Ma @maxiaoalex) challenge the "top-down industrial policy" narrative. The real engine? Strategic alliances between local governments and private capital. 🧵 Based on 3+ years of fieldwork, 60+ interviews (with officials, entrepreneurs, and engineers), and rich first-hand accounts, we show how strict central regulations inadvertently drove local states to bet big on private EV players. Here is the story: (1/15)
Studies published by the National Bureau of Economic Research, suggest that a higher concentration of lawyers in a population correlates with slower economic growth due to increased “rent-seeking” behavior and litigation.
My column today: what the engineers in China and the lawyer-bureaucrats in Japan’s MITI had, other than competence, was true love of country. but the leaders we elect work for their self-interest and do not have a sense of national unity and purpose. philstar.com/business/2026/…
@mangunonmarkets It's basically the cellphone towers all over again. It's a symptom of fragmented department regulations and LGU units. Then you add the mindset of how to extract "legal" fees. National government can try to railroad it as a national priority, but they are busy with shenanigans.
@BrianTycangco IMHO, Maharlika should be looking to invest in modernization of public transport. A director has already said, they want to invest in development. Public transport is key in urban development. They can look into SOE like DARMI of Indonesia which is professional managed.
@RichHeydarian Even when they try to help us. 50% of a large multilateral development banks rail budget goes to the Philippines. x.com/goodkidbikecit…
Guy who works for a Japanese train company is complaining that they cannot deliver trains for the North-South Commuter Rail and Metro Manila Subway projects because they are very, very delayed
There was a slide I saw regarding a large multilateral bank rail finance budget. 50% of that went to the Philippines.
