China Has a $1.2 Trillion Ponzi Finance Problem
Chinese borrowers are taking on record amounts of debt to repay interest on their existing obligations, raising the risk of defaults and adding pressure on policy makers to keep financing costs low.
The amount of loans, bonds and shadow finance arranged to cover interest payments will probably rise 5 percent this year to a record 7.6 trillion yuan ($1.2 trillion), according to Beijing-based Hua Chuang Securities Co., whose lead fixed-income analyst was top-ranked by China’s New Fortune magazine in 2012 and 2013. Dubbed “Ponzi finance” by Hyman Minsky, the use of borrowed funds to repay interest was seen by the late U.S. economist as an unsustainable form of credit growth that could precipitate financial crises.

Sidney Rittenberg knows a thing or two about China. During World War II, he learned fluent Mandarin as a U.S. Army linguist, worked in China, left the Army and joined the Chinese Communist Party. He became friends with Mao Zedong and spent 16 years in solitary confinement—as Mao’s prisoner.
We recently spoke to Rittenberg about his experiences in Maoist China, his imprisonment and why he became disillusioned with the party. In his 93 years, he’s seen China and America at their best … and their worst.

Economic Observer | The Difference Between Chinese And Western Billionaires
A disproportionately high number of China's so-called "super-rich" came from real estate. It's the first clue about what's wrong with Chinese wealth accumulation.
The Economic Observer is a weekly Chinese-language newspaper founded in April 2001. It is one of the top business publications in China. The main editorial office is based in Beijing, China. Inspired by the Financial Times of Britain, the newspaper is printed on peach-colored paper.

All that money is syphoned out of China, moved to Vancouver (and Toronto), Canada.
In Vancouver, shacks you would not keep your dog in, which were selling for $ 150K few yrs ago, now being shafted to Chinese for $ 3+ million (and flying off the shelve like hot cake)
Look, no such thing as dirty or stollen money (from others), Iranian Banker defrauds Iran, is welcomed in Toronto .. money is money (as long as stolen from others)
Everybody knows, but, the mindset is, f*ck China

Re: China
the mindset is not f*ck china.
the mindset is that chinese money is as good as any body elses money.
anything else would be racist
why would the canadian government enforce chinese politburo law, what an absurd concept, no other country does, china itself only does so sporadically

Since some yrs, to combat terrorism and money laundering, banks must follow "know your client" rule .. meaning banks are partly responsible the money they handling is "legal & clean" .. means banks must know what business their client is in, where the money comes from, where it is going to and for what purpose.
I in Vancouver must account for any money passing my account, must give reason where the money comes and why I am sending funds to any address .. strictly enforced.
When Russians take 100s of Millions and escape to Tel Aviv or London, when Chinese run a Ponzi 7.4 Billion and buy in Vancouver a few 20 million dollar homes over the weekend, when Malaysia politicians make disappear 4.5 Billion and say this was Saudi Gift .. when Iranian Bank employee runs away to Toronto with 100s of million with Iranian court after him ..
All this known in detail by Canadian, Australian, British, US authorities .. but .. going on since 20+ yrs.
Mindset is, Russia, China, Iran, Malaysia and a few others, f*ck them all, they deserve it.
London and Tel Aviv (probably Canada too) swimming in "dirty money" .. each having their own client for dirty money.

here is the word straight from our central bankers mouth, please pay attention.
http://www.macrobusiness.com.au/2016/02 ... -to-china/
china will own lots of prime realestate, farms and mines and the powers that be will be filthy rich - they arent f*cking china.
australians will be third world idiots blamed for being stupid/lazy and live like the arabs or africans.
my government suppresses any attempt to quantify the amount of australia that has been sold for fear of spooking the population.
its not JUST corruption money, its mainly chinese state owned business and shell companies, they dont care, they just want the money.
its not a F*CK CHINA plan, its a GIMME MONEY plan.

its also that the canadians are doing, they dont care if your kids grow up into a ghetto, or lack any oppurtunities, they wanted your sweet cash as a middle class immigrant, the future is someone elses problem.
here is the word straight from our central bankers mouth, please pay attention.
http://www.macrobusiness.com.au/2016/02 ... -to-china/
the current ruling class wants to prop up the failing system as long as it can to garuntee their own futures and it intends to use chinese money to make it happen.…”If you have got something like a fixed asset in a country and you are globalising the entire world then location becomes a valuable asset.”
“Real estate on Sydney harbour for example is also from a national point of view attractive. But for foreign investors it’s also very attractive because there’s billions of dollars of wealth being generated in China.
“The middle class is expanding, and they’re going to want to buy things, environmental goods – they’re going to want to buy stuff which we actually have in abundance. But much of it is fixed assets so you can’t change the supply of it, and so therefore it’s value is likely to go up a lot.”

Red Flag
HQ-9 SAM @ Woody Island
..
Known as the “Red Banner,” the HQ-9 SAM is China’s indigenous long range air defense system, complementing Russian made S-300 missiles.
The system is mounted on an 8×8 wheeled truck, each carrying 4 missiles.
The missile itself has a top speed of Mach 4.2, range of 200km and a flight ceiling of roughly 27-30km.
In addition to the ability to target aircraft, drones and cruise missiles, the HQ-9 also has a limited anti-ballistic missile and anti-surface capability.
While the missile currently uses semi-active radar homing and infrared guidance to hit targets, future upgrades would increase range and add on an active radar seeker.

Re: China
the figures are as wildly divergent as the ideological backdrops that created them.
what cant be denied is the real world proxies for that growth, energy usage, metal usage etc and they are all going backwards
eg: some quick graphs from economic blogs.
this one indicates over 5% on the official figures however the electricity graph isnt lining up that well at the moment
the previous post gfc drop the government did a monster stimulus, this time they cant because like the japanses and us, all the stimulus has been stimulated.
my country tastes all this stuff in realtime, if china sniffles australia gets pneumonia etc.

A massive manhunt is underway to identify the author(s) of the letter leading to a Streisand Effect.TOKYO -- In a fresh sign of the bitter power struggle going on in China, an explosive open letter appeared briefly on a state-sanctioned website calling for President Xi Jinping to resign over economic mismanagement.
The letter was not signed. It was posted by Wujie News in early March, shortly before the National People's Congress, China's parliament, kicked off its annual meeting at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
