“China arms auti communist regimes” had been sprading in Chinese Internet since several years ago. But in fact China’s aid to Philippines was to fight against an Islamist terrorist organization “https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maute_group”. I don’t know how could a islamist organization become “maoist organization”. Also I was banned on https://lemmygrad.ml/c/hoxhaism for repeating deleted comment. I accept but I think Wisconkom should treat himself with the same standard. He circumvented the ban by creating a new account. He should be treated with the same standard.

    I don’t mean this to be inflammatory but a genuine question- didn’t China help the Nepal monarchy against the Maoist Rebels? That seems more solid critique than with the Philippines from my understanding, as in Nepal they actually succeeded to some degree compared to the phillipines which hasn’t seemed to make much progress and if anything become weaker over the past decade.

      Nepal is a country that provides a buffer space in a heavily contested border area with India. It’s a pragmatic reason, but it’s the case.
