What you are offering is definitely not what the region needs. It needs proper diplomatic compromising, not stand over extortionist tactic for it regional strategies because each country is unique to is own region within Asia. So just leave us alone. No one needs your attacking deathtrap submarines. Anyway Japan make a way superior defensive submarines which will blend in with a diplomatic comprising strategies when adopted and applied.

What about the continuous mis-formation prior to the Internet from Corparate media which went unchallenged. All those years of anti Irish propaganda when the UK were conducting Apartheid. All the mis formation about JFK And RK assassination Mate the list goes on. etc. The Internet at lease challenged lying Governments and force Government to pull their finger out and arrest fifthly bad people. Shawn Diddy, Espsteins, Maxwell without the internet these bottom of the barrel filthy low life would go unchallenged. It gives trusted people a platform like Scott Ridder the UN Weapon inspectors who deny that WMD in Iraq but got lambasted by Corporate Media. No The Internet as been a blessing not a source of mis- information. It has slowed the corporate media mis- information.

I retired from my trade at 49. Then 2 years latter took up work in the hospitality industry here in Japan. Driving client back and forth from the Hakaba ski resorts which lasted for 3 years. I digress in using my ability as a trademans but I really got to learn how to customer service and how to trigger fools. Canadian are the best to trigger which I learn quickly. American were my best customers and their attitude to getting good service I also pick very quickly. Many time I be driving around with a Canadian and an Americans and the wink was pass to the American and I started triggering the Canadians. This always got bigger tips from the American. I learnt that it don't work with Canadian who have very short arms and very long pockets. So this attitude earn a good old triggering many many time over to the enjoyment of the Americans.

Nippon Steel & Japan JFE get 60% of their Metalurgy coal from Australia and are commencing buying 30% of blackwater in QLD. They also get the majority of their iron ore from WA. Anyone with a brain can see that these material are better off get shipped into India where labour costs a very low. Once the agree grace time is up that 2.4 billion new blast furnaces will be mothball and sent to India. The USA Steel can not compete now let alone after the 5 years grace period is up. This penal should push for a few more year grace. But I assume the ball is in Nippon/JFE court. This why for the about face on the sale. Politician have nearly destroy the deal hence the new Penal decision to reopen negotiations.
