Interests that are mainly econimical we are told. Surely with the military bases it is more for global rule than economy but one comes with the other anyway. China is chewing up resources quicker than a rat up a rafter, so they need to reach out and spread their influences as well.<BR/>East Timor, oil,gas, gold,copper..check.<BR/>Solomon Islands, gold, copper, check.<BR/>Common attribute outside of resources..INSTABILITY of Government and peoples.<BR/>Once they get access to these resources what is the point of terror?<BR/>New Zealand and Australia have both sold themselves out of resource commodities to the point of absolute foolishness. <BR/>Why is it that we have given up the bass oil reserves? why is Australia selling gas to china at .3 cent /cubic meter? why do we sell uranium off and then say that nuclear power is too expensive for us? We pay 60 + cents/ ltr for gas and $1. + for petrol and deisel, while we give it all away. yet you people worry about the pacific and china.Australia gave up the Northwest shelf, an area covered by our continental shelf, with untold resources, Where is the outcry? Under our constituion that is classed as an act of treason yet no one is held accountable. No One CARED.<BR/>These little island nations are poor as it is and we send in envoys with a smile only a shark knows and then go about ripping these resources from them with little care of their well being.<BR/>Maybe, just Maybe China may broker a better deal than we. Then in the end the governing bodies in these little countries will do the same thing they have been doing for years.RIP OF THE PROFITS and let the people suffer in abject poverty again/still.<BR/>With the massive mineral deposits in the solomons the people should be living in much better conditions and the same can be said for EAST TIMOR, a place of continual infighting and struggles.<BR/>Same with New Zealand and Australia, with the reserves we HAD under our control, we too should be ALL well off. However we choose to give it up to the USA and Britain. Now China is going to have its go..wait for India, her turn is coming next, as a new nuclear power, do we panic then as well? Or are you going mental because this is CHINA, the communist state?<BR/>Personally, I think the bigger picture is a bigger concern..What happens when there is near to no reserves to try to get a hold of? The Pacific Islands are a miners dream and have so far been controlled by the Brits/Aus/Americans, However times and politics change, as you are now seeing.NUI GINI is going down this track already, Fiji has been for years and E.Timor has no idea, so is up for grabs to the highest bidder.<BR/>Or do you think this is for military placement only? for the great chinese world takeover..Perhaps you have your own agenda for the way you post the anti-usa theme? Me personally, i dont give a flick as to who is where, we all gotta die mate and if its defending this country on our own shores then so be it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18947592.post-1173351888646335432007-03-09T00:04:00.000+13:002007-03-09T00:04:00.000+13:00Well...have a good relation with China is better t...Well...have a good relation with China is better then a relation with a buliest that encapsulat its action with moral!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18947592.post-1173157055092197822007-03-06T17:57:00.000+13:002007-03-06T17:57:00.000+13:00Pro-communist Trveor deletes ant-i-red messages.WH...Pro-communist Trveor deletes ant-i-red messages.<BR/>WHAT A LAUGH!<BR/>LONG LIVE THE NFP!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18947592.post-1173145809830054132007-03-06T14:50:00.000+13:002007-03-06T14:50:00.000+13:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
