Naah, China isn't better in manufacturing than the US. it is just cheaper if China does the manufacturing, it's more like outsourcing. China is known for cheap labour. don't confuse both.

i know russia wont agree to yuan as a reserve currency neither will china accept the rouble. Brics be like labour party in nigeria, saudi and iran hates each other, china and indua hates each other, how about egypt thats a usa puppet

Many nations have their individual differences but shares collective goals and objectives on geopolitical scale. China and India are founding members of BRICS despite having border issues. Satan Arabia (my bad grin ) and Iran that you mentioned are now relating bilaterally and diplomatically again (thanks to China) because their economic geopolitical visions aligns. Strange times they say begat strange bedfellows.

My guess is, they would eventually agree on a neutral currency to avoid unhealthy internal competition.

yes cheaper i agree depending on what you want and your budget chinese companies can work with any reasonable budget unlike american companies that have fixed standards because of their regulations, you might be thinking of the grade of chinese products we have in Nigeria, but those class of products are what our importers want Chinese people are insanely crazily talented when it comes to crafting (i dont want to talk about my career online, but i am into machine designing and fabrication and have worked with a few chinese companies)... if the same chinese company is to produce... lets say a plate for 2 clients like American and Nigeria the two would be different due to budget and standard requirements... like i said when it comes to anything craftin bro put your money on the chinese. in fact asia
Spot on. What i wanted to point out is that it may not be better than what US may churn out. Americans are talented just that their labour laws won't allow you to take advantage of them unlike outside their chores.

⚡Israeli officials have held clandestine talks with the African nation of Congo and several others for the potential acceptance of Gaza emigrants, Zman Yisrael reports.

Yesterday Washington panned far-right ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir for advocating the resettlement of Palestinians outside of Gaza.

“This rhetoric is inflammatory and irresponsible,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said.

Have you ever read the Quran? Or Islamic books by Islamic scholars?

If you haven't, let me answer your question in brief, because I have read the quran, the whole book is against education, that's exactly why they can't make any meaningful contribution to science, the book embraces terrorism and admonishes the spread of Islam by terrorism (kill infidels and conquer lands).

Quran makes them mentally lazy. It is filled with fairytales and fables, majority if not all the fables in Quran were copied from ancient poetic masterpiece. A very good example is a fable copied from Alexander the great!

The mentally weak Muslims, all 2 billion of them believes those fables and fairytales in the Quran did actually happened 😂😂😂😂😂😂.

Quran is a mostly filled with copied texts from orthodox Jewish practices, absolutely nothing special about it. No single miracle stated in Quran actually happened.

Without lies,Islam dies.

For someone who doesn't miss a chance to label Muslims "dumb", this is beyond disgraceful.

How can a single post harbour so much ignorance

This is what this post says about you:

That you LIED about reading the Quran.
That you know NOTHING about Islamic history.
That you don't know the Muslim civilization spanning more than a millennium contributed immensely to science from which you still benefit today!
That the oldest university in the world was founded by Muslims.
That the only reason why you labelled ALL 2 BILLION+ Muslims worldwide as mentally weak is because you're a hopeless Islamophobe.

This is what the opening paragraph of Wikipedia (which is not particularly fond of Muslims) has to say about the Arab-Muslim civilization.

"The Islamic Golden Age was a period of scientific, economic and cultural flourishing in the history of Islam".

And you accuse the Qur'an of being behind your nauseous claim. 😂
It was indeed the Qur'an which fired the imaginations of the Arabs and pushed them to unimaginable limits.

When Germans complain about the price increase in Germany, Scholz says: “It’s Putin’s fault.”
When Americans complain about the price increase in the US, Biden says: “It’s Putin’s fault.”
When French people complain about the price increase in France, Macron says: “It’s Putin’s fault.”
When Russian people complain about the price increase in Russia, Putin says: “It’s my fault.” And he works with the government to fix it.

⚡With continued leadership in the conflict in Ukraine, a resilient Russian economy, and new allies around the world, 2023 can easily be called “the year of Vladimir Putin,” says Le Parisien.

“Putin is a lucky man who manages to emerge unscathed from the most difficult situations and even turn them in his favor,” notes the French publication.

The past year has convinced the Russian president of the correctness of his policy on several points.

i never said standard has anythin to do with talent... Like i said earlier the US maintain a higher standard than China in terms of production. chinese products low quality products you see rampant is due to to the fact that that is what our local importers and distributors want and can afford plus Nigerian laws on quality of imported goods are weak. it doesnt mean the chinese cannot do better, china cannot sell anyhow products to US because they will reject it as soon as it enters their country, unlike Nigeria that accepts all manner of things.

Many people don't understand how business is done in China. They have from the lowest to highest quality, it all depends on what you can afford.

The problem is not only with the importers but the buyers here in Nigeria looking for cheap product. Let's say you went to buy from China and bring in high quality stuff from China, you will see a potential say your product is too expensive that Mr so and so sells same product cheaper. It is either you follow the trend of cheaper and less quality band wagons or run out of business it's your choice.

In regarads to overtaking tesla nd leading in ev generally it has to do with with people hasbeen discussing here cheap quality, massive subsidx,battery production, dumping . Anti competitive practices. Even tesla that used to be in their good books is now facing it.

Appleyard:


The global sale of oil wired around the US dollar via the Brentton Wood arrangement, and the SWIFT payment system that controls much of the world's financial settlement initiatives is the major reason the US-led west has the ability to sanction any country that do not follow their diktats. If an economic body like BRICS comes up with their own reserve currency similar to the Euro, and their own SWIFT alternative settlement system, considering how huge it is with more members seeking to join, it will drastically undermined the dominance of the
Dollar and reduce the effect of the western sanction bullyinng tactics and leverage over the rest of the world, which is increasingly getting fed up with the US-led western economic grindsmanship.

Already, BRICS represent 29% of global GDP, accounting for more than $30 trillion dollars of global wealth. And with new members set to join (many of which has positive GDP growth potentials,) the gap between it and the G7 nations would continue to shrink drastically. That is not a good sign for the US-led west abuse of "soft power" to harass other nations. Welcome to multipolarism. cool
I applaud the fact that you still take some time out to lecture this kids on geopolitics.

Name of some of the books written by Arabic scholars/mathematicians from 8/9/10/11 century

Modern elementary arithmetic, "Modum indorum " or "The method of the Indians for arithmetic operations " by al-khwarizmi and al-kindi as in al-Khwarizmi's "On the Calculation with Hindu Numerals " (9th C), "On the Use of the Indian Numerals " (9th C)

ibn Tariq and al-Fazari (8th C, Baghdad), al-Kindi (9th C, Basra), al-Khwarizmi (9th C. Khiva), al-Qayarawani (9th C, Maghreb, author of Kitab fi al-hisab al-hindi), al-Uqlidisi (10th C, Damascus, author of The book of Chapters in Indian Arithmetic), ibn-sina (Avicenna), ibn al-Samh (Granada, 11th C, Spain), al-Nasawi (Khurasan, 11th C, Persia), al-Beruni (11th C, born Khiva, died Afghanistan), al-Razi (Teheran), and ibn-al-Saffar (11th C, Cordoba) acknowledged that their works were translation of Hindu scholars.

Majority of works by Hindu scholars in the fields of mathematics, astronomy, medicine etc were translated and used by Arabs and to their credit unlike Europeans and ignorants in the future credited the source correctly as any honest scholar would

Al Hindi in Arabic refers to Hindu
Arabic name for their numeral system was Hind sa which means Hindu numerals
