Jim Rogers: China investment opportunities today

Posted on by

“Environmental: ‘China is horribly polluted…they are spending staggering amounts of money trying to clean up the pollution.’ ‘For the next 20 or 30 years, huge amounts of money are going to be spent, and therefore, profits made…somebody’s going to make a lot of money cleaning it up.’ Agriculture:  ‘The Chinese government is spending staggering amounts of money on agriculture. Mao Tse-tung ruined Chinese agriculture, and they know it.’  Tourism: ‘They’ve not been able to travel for a few hundred years. Now they can get passports very easily…now they can take money out of the country very easily. One billion three hundred million Chinese! Great opportunities in Chinese tourism.'”

Tufts University: Study promoting GMO ‘golden rice’ violated ethics rules

Posted on by

“Tufts University researchers revealed Tuesday that a member of their team violated ethics rules in a study designed to measure the nutritional efficacy of so-called ‘golden rice,’ genetically modified rice with the nutrient beta carotene added. No one on Tang’s team saw fit to inform the parents of the 24 children from Hunan province, ages 6 to 8, that the children were eating gene-modified food. Chinese journalists found an email to the research team from a Chinese government official urging scientists not to speak openly of genetic modification, a subject deemed ‘too sensitive’ to discuss with the families.”

Jim Rogers on Financial Globalization and Mining Opportunities

Posted on by

“Mr. Rogers added that China should ‘globalize the Renminbi in the next 20 minutes rather than the next 20 years’. He thought that China is currently the world’s second largest economic entity as well as the country with most amount of foreign exchange reserve, ‘there is no reason to restrict the Renminbi globalization. It is good for all Chinese people, as Renminbi globalization means all investors worldwide can invest in China, which will bring great market opportunities to China’s commodities. Stock price in China will rise, China will become the world’s center for commodity transaction, China’s financial market will be the best in the world.”

Jim Rogers warns of world economic slowdown, praises RMB

Posted on by

“Rogers reiterated his optimism on the RMB, describing it as ‘the only currency that can compete and replace the U.S. dollar.’  A recent BIS report showed that the Chinese yuan has broken into the top 10 of the most traded currencies in the world for the first time.  ‘I will buy more RMB whenever I can. If anyone wants to sell RMB, come and see me afterwards,’ he quipped during his speech.  He praised the government’s endeavors to make the currency more convertible, but hoped that the pace could be faster.  In contrast, Rogers called the U.S. dollar ‘flawed’ and ‘troubled’. However, he still has to own the dollar because people go to the greenback when there is economic turbulence, he said.”

China Broadcasts “Confession” of Chinese-American Blogger

Posted on by

EPJ13

“Chinese state television on Sunday broadcast a startling video of a famous blogger in handcuffs, renouncing his Web posts and saying how dangerous the Internet would be if left uncontrolled by the government.  The 10-minute news report featuring Charles Xue — a Chinese American businessman and one of China’s most popular bloggers — was the latest step in what appears to be asystematic campaign to intimidate online opinion leaders against speaking too freely or critically of the government.”

‘China is taking a leap forward to control world currency’

Posted on by

“It is obvious that China is up to something hoarding gold like a dragon. In fact, it is taking a leap forward to control the world currency and to replace it with the yuan, Dr. Thorsten Pattberg, China expert at the Peking University, told RT.  China is vowing to make more reforms, among them cutting red tape and establishing the yuan as a world currency. The 7th Annual Meeting of the New Champions is opening in the Chinese city of Dalian, the gathering has become known as a ‘summer Davos’. RT has talked to Dr. Pattberg about China’s prospects for introducing a new world currency.”

Bitcoin Segment on China State Television

“Most people are enthusiasts who use it but a lot of people use it all over the world for various reasons. The most popular use is for speculation. The currency has seen some massive price increases over the last year. But the most important application for it is for remittances, particularly in Africa.  Bitcoin is one of the first payment systems that doesn’t have anyone to tell you that you can’t use it. You can create your own account at home and use it to receive and send money. You don’t have to go and apply for an account. No one will tell you where to send or receive money anywhere in the world.”

Pepe Escobar: Dogs of war versus the emerging caravan

Posted on by

“Not even the ghost of Machiavelli would come up with an adjective to describe the whole planet waiting in disbelief to see whether the almost universally despised House of Representatives (15% approval rating, according to RealClearPolitics) decides, Roman Empire style, to give the thumbs down and authorize the bombing of one of the oldest cities in humanity (well, they have an illustrious precedent of applauding Shock and Awe over Baghdad, which topped the Mongols going medieval in the 13th century). And all this against the will of the ‘American people’ who, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll support this folly by an overwhelming 9%.  Yes We Bomb. But what for?”
