Для кого-то настоящий Китай — это серые одноэтажные здания, люди в синих костюмах и кепках со звездой и что-нибудь жуть какое экзотическое в ресторанах. Многие полагают, что истинный Китай нужно искать в деревне — чем глуше, тем лучше. Другие не представляют Китай без небоскребов и технологичных устройств. На самом деле настоящий Китай повсюду, нужно только открыть глаза и отказаться от собственных стереотипов.

May 2021 - This is a subject that is much larger than most people probably think. Infiltration and information collection efforts by thousands of agents of the intelligence services of the Communist People’s Republic of China (PRC) in the US is a huge problem, and most Americans are unaware of their agenda, and the consequences of this occupation. I included what I believe are two possible locations for a new Chinese Navy Submarine Base to be located in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Africa, and the new Airbase in the South Pacific.
