Hello Marek, <<Jay, … maybe you can … info when I can expect to take the air travel in ChinaBus … your country will not be contained like Japan by US … >> First thing is first, I am a French Creole Hakka Chinese Trinidadian living in Hong Kong which is a Special Administrative Zone of China ;0) As regard to air travel by China Bus, perhaps in another 10 years, which, when one reflects on it, is not that far away. As regard to China being contained by the US like Japan presumably is, I think you might be right, because China is not an island, and China is, in the scheme of matter and anti-matter, to be Jay, more popular than Japan ever could hope to be :0) <<… G7 … How possible … 90% of the ships build in the world will be made in the world biggest shipyard being build in China>> … 90% of certain types of ships, mostly simpler ships, and less the imported navigation systems, but I guess this will also change over the next 10 years. <<G7 … trying to figure out how to create wealth by means of consumption instead of production>> … so far so good, and then, one fine day … For my upcoming vacation, I will be bringing along a book by Virginia Cowles titled “The Great Swindle – the story of the South Sea Bubble” written in the 60s, reviewed here achamchen.com It promises to be a fun read of a recurring script in financial history, over, again, and then once more. I just finished a most relaxing lunch, and while at it, I grew more concerned, thinking about my HKD assets that is tagged to the crazy politician infected USD, my CAD that is dependent on a mad cow infected economy, my Euro that has simply gone up too much too fast, my Japanese Yen that is still dripping with warm ink, and my gold that will be pounded by the world’s fiat issuers. The Danish DKK is so far so good, but I cannot exactly go over-weight on that patch of land, unless if they end up finding a Saudi-sized oil/gas field under Greenland. Hey, wait just a cotton-picking minute? Do the oil/gas savvy people on the thread know if Greenland has been thoroughly explored yet? Nap time. Chugs, Jay
