yes, but to be fair, in Spain the Chinesse Embassy has send a list of supliers, some one from our Health Department has think " better i search " like others. ( maybe in aliexpress or Dhgate!).and the resoult is tet we got 950.000 test good for nothing.

Chinesse has to give lot of explains for the " virus" but Eurpean stupid Govermanets has made a real mess also, we have to pay here the stupid incompetence of our Prime Minister Mr Pedro Sanchez and his mates,

I am working as we have transfor our factory to made mask and protective equipement, you an only see police and army on the street and roads, i have never seems something similar.the motorway at 07:30 am normaly is full,,now in 40 kilometers 3 cars,,,,,

Population is doing really well, very disciplimate , but our politic are really a Garbage

Take care , beliveme, take care.

I hope that there are serious financial claw back clauses for supplying duff stuff.

But I doubt it.

What makes the patently obvious to many so invisible to some - usually those "higher up" in the decision making process?

Maybe a global "we don't want stuff from China" might be a thought. And as for letting them anywhere near any infrastructure......

Oh, look, pigs flying past my windows.

Andy.

Default empire of the dragon

Western politicians don't study world history, china regards itself and its population as the only civilization ever. They plan for next century not next week and if there are setbacks to their plans, they believe it does not matter if it takes another century because the final goal will be reached eventually. the final aim has been the same ever since the first emperor united the country. to control all other races as subservient to the chin. Having a communist government is no different to an emperor, they may do things slightly different but the end result is always the same. We in the west think we are more clever and our tech will keep us ahead, wrong.
