Gold is not a veritable means. It is not sustainable and that is why people have not used it .
Give me something else.

gold is one of the few thing with a value
Unlike the papers being printed daily

cstr1000:
A finite material like Gold is not satisfactory or feasible.
Let them go and use it na, instead of stealing from their own country in dollars.

you have no idea
The only few materials with real value

cstr1000:
Cheap labour, nothing more.
A 1.2 billion population has enormous capacity for very cheap labour, not to mention child workers who earn less than a dollar a day.
Try that in America and you would go to to prison for slave labour.
Labour in America is very expensive, even though most of the technology being manufactured in china was designed from America.

They are running to China for loans, for their expertise, for their ability to put up stuff in a very limited amount of time (efficiency) and so much more.

cstr1000:
Compel the rest of the world with what? With their own worthless currency that is always being manipulated to keep cost of manufacturing low?
Nobody is that stupid to trust china's alternative.

with their Yuan to gold exchange. What choice do you have if the world's manufacturing hub refuse to sell you anything because you're using dollar.
2hat choice to you have, if they refuse to give you loans because you use dollar in your trades.

Just 30 I saw you, is nana akufor ador doing better than John dramani ?

for now, Yes.
He's streamlining government business to remove the bottle necks.
Now I can sit at home and apply for a passport and get it with a stipulated time and not have to pay anyone for doing their job.

eodavids:
If China as a country is as Democratic, a country as United States; and if China practices capitalism like the U.S.; then I would have agreed with the op.

Considering the fact China is not fully as democratic as U.S and the fact that it practices communism, we must know that China has not gotten to the world stage where it will challenge or detrone the U.S. as the world super power.

The civilized countries of the world will readily rally behind the United States than behind China because of the above two factors I pointed above.

WHO WOULD PREFER A COMMUNIST LESS- DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY LIKE CHINA OVER A LIBRAL AND MOST-DEMOCRATIC U.S?

Note: China is simply reaping their benefit of offering cheap labour, and manufacturers are cashing in on that. But, compared to the U.S. China is still learning.

Up till today, fakeness is stii associated with the name CHINA.

you need to see how they are all running to China

Mazeltovscotty:
you are contradicting yourself.
US spend more than 80% of its military budget on hardwares and military researches. (F-35 comes to mind). You can take a ride to DARPA website and confirm.
Have you ever seen a month that Pentagon doesn't award contract the likes of Lockheed, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics e.t.c for one hardware or the other.

Secondly, there is need to project power all over the world giving US first-strike edge in any part of the world. This needs to be matched with fat budget.

F-35 was severely damaged by Syria S200 few days ago.

cstr1000:
The US has gone beyond manufacturing, though Trump wants to bring it back by reducing taxes and bringing back US companies looking for cheap labour in china back home.
Anybody can manufacture. It is not difficult especially with cheap labour. The difficult thing is creating the intellectual property which is a product of innovation.
If the US and china were to go to the war, the US government would immediately enforce the patriot act compelling all US manufacturers like Apple, HP, TESLA, DELL, e.tc. in china to come back home immediately.
And that would severely cripple china as the world's manufacturing giant to a very very large extent.

China has one of the world largest consumer market.with their current status , the dollar will be worthless once China compell nations to stop trading with the dollar.

cstr1000:
Fear of Death does not make you weak. It means you have a lot to lose.
And the US is a democracy, parents don't like their kids going to fight foreign wars, and so the US politicians are wary of the backlash.
And besides, Why should they risk their lives when they have hundreds of reaper and predator drones that can do the Job from the sky?
Nobody likes a long conflict. The soviet union ran away from Afghanistan and disintegrated into pieces after a long conflict there that sapped men and resources.
Believe me, with US resources and tech, she can survive long conflicts than any country in the world.
Worse come to worse, drones will take over. Which country in the world has the resources to match that?

in any real war situation among powers , drones would be useless
They would drop from the sky like rocks

cstr1000:
And use what as the alternative?
Even Russian thieving politicians steal in dollars.

I guess you haven't heard of the Russia China gold backed exchange

seunny4lif:
Even Israel government that got the F35 for free self.They are complaining about it and the Canadian government rejected the overrated flying coffin

you forgot to add
Syria s200 just completely damaged an f35 from Israel

Beautyaddy:
I am skeptical to say China.


However, what has China invented?

China invented the number system used today

Mazeltovscotty:
Being world power is projected on two scales. The first is Economic while the second is military.
If we sum up these two points, it will be safe to say US still holds the key while China is busy playing catch up game in both

the US is only pretending to have the key and everyone else is pitching their camp in China.

Lionessza:
Almost every time I visit this forum i see negative things about my country and others like Kenya and Ghana. Why don't you people intervene and tell your brothers to stop insulting others ? . Even your union in south africa issued a statement a few days back warning the Nigerians in south africa to stop false stories online because it is earning them hatred from most communities in the country and people now see them as an enemy of the country. Yes , every country has its own problems no doubt but your citizen' s need to highlight problems of others has put you on the spotlight of other nations.

dont mind them
They're in a state of depression

With all your "whiteness" your zoo doesn't seem to glitter.

The Sad Saga Of The F35 Flying POS "Fighter" Continues: More Proof That "Stealth" Is A Lie - Antiquated Syrian S200 Anti Aircraft System Scores Hit On Israeli F35 Over Lebanon!

I figure it was time to turn away from the Las Vegas mass shooting False Flag operation and put up some other interesting material at this blog.... And of course what I found this morning is astounding and shows once again that I have been absolutely right about the atrocious and ridiculous F35 Lighting II "fighter" and the key fact that "stealth" is and always has been a massive fraud.....

Just today I came across the following report from the Southfront website, at www.southfront.org, where supposedly the Israelis sent several of the US built so called "stealth" F35 fighter aircraft ILLEGALLY into Lebanese airspace only to have an antiquated S200 surface to air missile hit one of these "invisible" aircraft....   Here is the Southfront report right here for everyone to see for themselves:

ISRAEL IS HIDING THAT ITS STATE-OF-ART F-35 WARPLANE WAS HIT BY SYRIAN S-200 MISSILE – REPORTS



Illustrative image: Israeli Air Force F-35 warplanes

It looks that the Israeli “demonstration of power” during the recent visit of Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu has turned into a total failure.

On October 16, Shoigu arrived Israel for meetings with Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The sides were reportedly set to discuss the situation in the region, including Syria, the fight against terrorism as well as military and technical cooperation.

At the same day, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) claimed that its warplanes targeted an anti-aircraft battery of the Syrian Air Defense Forces that had launched a missile at Israeli aircraft flying over Lebanon.

“The army targeted the battery with four bombs and, according to the IDF, the battery was damaged to the extent it was no longer operational. The army said the battery targeted was the same that fired at Israeli jets last March, prompting Israel make use of its Arrow anti-missile system for the first time,” the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reportedon the issue.

The Syrian military confirmed the Israeli strikes and said that they caused “material damage.”

It’s interesting to note that, according to the Syrian Defense Ministry statement, Israeli warplanes violated Syria’s airspace on the border with Lebanon in Baalbek area. The incident took place at 8:51 am local time.

Could the Israeli Air Force intentionally provoke the reaction from the Syrian military in order to justify the strike on the Syrian air defense battery?

Furthermore, some pro-Israeli experts and media activists clearly linked the incident with the visit of the Russian defense minister to Tel Aviv saying that it was a nice demonstration of power to the Russian-Iranian-Syrian alliance.

However, something went wrong.

According to the available information, the Syrian Defense Forces used a S-200 missile against the Israeli warplane. This Soviet-made missile is the most advanced long range anti-aircraft system opearated by the Syrian military. Even in this case, it’s old-fashioned in terms of the modern warfare.

Despite this, the Syrian Defense Ministry said in its statement that government forces responded to the violation of the airspace and “directly hit one of the jets, forcing [Israeli aircraft] to retreat.” This statement contradicts to the Israeli claim that “no hit” was confirmed.

Few hours after the missile incident with Syria, the Israeli media reported that the Israeli Air Force’s F-35 stealth multirole fighter went unserviceable as a result of an alleged bird collision during a training flight. 

The incident allegedly took place “two weeks ago” but was publicly reported only on October 16. However, Israeli sources were not able to show a photo of the F-35 warplane after the “bird collision”.

Furthermore, it is not clear if the F-35 can become operational again because its stealth coating was damaged. Thus, according to the Israeli version, the warplane reportedly became no longer operational after the bird collision despite the fact that the F-35 earlier passed the bird strike certification with great results (official info here). The F-35 is the world’s most expensive warplane. The price of developing the F-35 is now about $406.5 billion.

Israel is actively buying the world’s self-proclaimed most advanced fighter paying about $100 million for each plane.

So what did really hit the F-35


Here is another take on this incident from Jim Stone over at www.jimstone.is that also asks the key question as to what exactly hit that supposedly "invisible" F35 aircraft?  Here is Jim's article:

Highly probable but not proven: Syria scored a hit on an Israeli F-35 with an S-200

FACT: Later the same day, Israel permanently de-commissioned a brand new F-35 due to a "bird strike".The following is an old story, but it was so buried I just became aware of it now. Israel actually permanently retired an F-35 after this.WARNING ON THIS TOPIC: A virus tried to hit this computer when I was digging up links, so this topic is a mine field. This appears to be a safe link, BE CAREFUL.

It is already well known that Israel got a hack into Russia's S-300 and S-400 missile systems, which contacts the missiles and tells them not to hit the plane. This was probably put in place by Jews in Russia's DOD. But Israel probably has no such hack on the S-200, which is old but still capable.

So the question is, did Syria bag an F-35? Here are the story lines:  Israel once again violated Syria's airspace, and scored a hit on a Syrian missile battery, which before the bombs arrived managed to fire off an S-200 which registered a hit on the Israeli F-35. Probably due to advanced stability controls, the F-35 made it back to Israel and landed.

A few hours later, the Israeli media released a report that stated a brand new F-35 was going to be decomissioned due to a bird strike that happened during training.  PROBLEM: The F-35 is well designed to handle bird strikes, and actually scores very high in this area. And when has Israel done anything but lie? The report was careful to say the strike happened weeks before and the f-35 was decomissioned after careful consideration.  But if Syria really did hit it, there is no way, even on the other side of HELL that Israel would ever admit it and by doing so allow the Syrians to know they have a chance, I'd say it is highly probable that the S-200 is not hacked, and actually scored a hit.

Here's my best bet: A missile strike blew a large chunk of the plane off, and only computerized stability controls allowed it to get back to Israel and land. It would not be the first time this happened, an Israeli F-15 landed with one wing due to the automated stability controls keeping it from tumbling, there's no reason to think the F-35 would not be able to make it back, in pieces. Anyone who says it would not be possible for an advanced plane to make it home after a very bad missile hit does not know enough history.

Benita27:
The ladies have a choice if the advert was encouraging bleaching. FYI, it's not a crime to bleach but a matter of choice. I sincerely don't get a fuss the op created here.

it's not about who has a choice and who dont.
It's about an advert encouraging women to feel inferior with their skin colour , something we've been discouraging.
Corporate entities dont have a right to create problems for them to make money.

mekstaniac:
Who is this charcoal mentioning me?

a face like yours belongs to the zoo

Benita27:
Did they say "blacks are monkeys" or "All black women should be killed" in the advert?. Tell me the message that was passed in the advert that was racist.

go watch it for yourself and draw your own conclusions.
By my standard, it was blatantly encouraging a black woman to bleach her skin white.

Benita27:
I think I've read more books than you've in your entire life. Take for example, you don't know personal pronoun I is written in capital letter.

Back to your stupidity. Colourism is prejudice or discrimination against people of dark skinned tone. Tell me how this billboard discriminated people of dark skinned tone?. Nivea as a product, deals on creams for both all shades of Black, and White. Fairer skinned tone ladies are black but they don't use same cream as a darker skinned tone lady would. If you have a problem with the advert placement, it's simply 'cause you're too dumb to know that black is in different shades.

Just a word of advise, don't always quote people with derogatory remarks if you have a penchant for insults. Bye!.

go watch the advert and you will understand why.
The billboard was both the issue but the advert .

mekstaniac:
Shut the fvck up fuse, you are not the spokesperson for all of ghana

shut the Bleep up
He's Ghanaian and you're not
You can keep their billboard in Nigeria

Ucheparker:
That's just a typical example. I actually wanted a very simple one that you could understand. I lived and worked in Ghana, everything from food to transport to utilities like cutting your hair or watching a match is relatively more expensive than Nigeria. Means that you'd still use the Naira to acquire more in those countries is the point I'm trying so hard to make.

Ghana is an expensive place to live.
Wages in Ghana are much higher
People price services accordingly.

DozieInc:
Those ones are international workers.
At least the country is exporting something, it is part of economic diversification.

leathalbeast:
don't mind him, he thinks Nigerians would survive the taxes we pay here. like they will quickly overthrow their government in an uprising and a civil war will ensue.

I don't know why their shallow level of thinking surprise me all the time

richard870:
That's not always a determining factor.... other key economy indices could influence a country's currency either positively or negatively. Wetin ghana dey produce?

like taxation

Ucheparker:
Don't mind this unlearned OP. Has never been to any of those countries or he won't write this rubbish of a post. And people are already being deceived and talking down on Nigerian economy. With what is written I. The article ₦82 can buy the equivalent of a ₦100 recharge card in Ghana because they sell recharge card at 1cedi. To cut your hair in Ghana you would need to spend 6 cedis which the equivalent of ₦492 and this is exactly what they use to cut your hair in the village!. A lot of people have written about currency devaluation but few Nigerians understand what that means but in essence if you devalue your currency you can just reassign value of one note to a lesser note! In simple terms 1 Ghana cedis should buy exactly what ₦100 should buy but the naira is ahead of the cedis by ₦18!
And this is just for cedis, I'll bet that all of the countries on that list also devalued their currency too. So their 1 whatever their currency is should also buy what ₦100 should buy except south African rand on that list.

I guess the naira has more value than the dollar cos cutting your hair cost less in Nigeria than in the US and UK.

Kog45:
1 cedi is for Pepsi but coke my guy 350 naira

a bottle of coke cost 1 cedi and retailers retail it at 1.99 cedis

Kog45:
Ghana?Cedis is useless when it comes to value, with 100 naira u get a coke in Nigeria but in Ghana u need to pay 350 naira.

you just need one cedi to get a coke
While a 1kg bread will cost you 2 cedi in Ghana
It cost 365N in Nigeria

Neimar:
who resembles her?
ur sis bro

how can someone from Nigeria be my sis ?m
She was so disgusting

Neimar:
so dt u can masturbate wit her pix abi
no bro..black ape

I saw someone among the 300 prostitutes your high commissioner was talking to
Who resembles her . Just wanted to be sure
