FSM President David Panuelo is a down to Earth man. I am a Filipino who spent 15 years of my life in Pohnpei and Chuuk States of the Federated States of Micronesia as a foreign worker in the construction business sector over there. Back then in the early 90's, President Panuelo was an ordinary educated Micronesian who owns a decent general merchandise store. He greets every one locals or expats with a smile and a lively hello, good morning or kaselehlia in their Pohnpeian language. I left the islands back in 2008 and was not really surprised to learn that in 2018, Mr. David Panuelo was elected as President. Sir, I am sure the people of the FSM are proud of you, and will surely want to have you to lead them for another year. Mabuhay po! 🇫🇲🇵🇭

Valorizing: In Marxism, the valorisation or valorization of capital is the increase in the value of capital assets through the application of value-forming labour in production. The German original term is "Verwertung" but this is difficult to translate. Wikipedia. I still don't understand the comment.
@@veramae4098 I think Darkskay is saying that nation size does not equate to moral correctness and devaluing the concerns of others does not increase the objective value of our own concerns.
Worded differently: "Dismissing concerns of others generally does not contribute to increase the perceived legitimacy and weight of own concerns; or the perceived readiness to be more impartial towards concerns in general - respectively where appropriate and helpful, attach less weight to the provenance of the message, than the objectivity, importance and implications of the concern itself; which is usually shared by a significant number of entities, correlating with its objective and subjective weight."

1. Why did the president write a 13-page accusation that China has been bribing and threatening small countries for a long time, and the reporter did not report in depth what caused it and the relevant details? 2. Why do you only want the audience to know that the president is retiring, implying that he is about to have no political influence? 3. Why do you want to explain China's economic contributions and constructions in that country in just a few minutes of reporting? 4. Did you report that these constructions are for the benefit of the island nation or China itself? Just like the former president of Ecuador accepted huge bribes from China, signed a huge public construction expenditure of 19 billion U.S. dollars with China, and then China built a hydroelectric power plant dam with a price of 2.8 billion U.S. dollars. After two years of use, there were 7648 cracks. After that, when these countries do not pay back, they will almost permanently give their natural resources and minerals, such as oil over 90%, to China at the lowest cost. China then resells it to other countries for profit. Then, the corrupt government cut at least 1,000 public employment opportunities in its own country for the sake of China. 3. This reporter, do you have a biased political position? Why use the way China calls Taiwan to call Taiwan with Taipei?
Not much of a surprise considering the type of Government that rules China. Plus, China is following in the footsteps of Japan in terms of its economic ambitions. The Chinese Communist Party is a dictatorship, does not have much to do with Communism. The CCP has always viewed Taiwan as the prize. Autocratically ruled nations usually have a person who takes high risks and does not care about anyone much but are extremely focused or obsessed with achieving their goals.
@@superlight7654 Tell me you have no idea how the Chinese government legislates without telling me how you have no idea. The fact that you believe one man is responsible for orchestrating the whole show and plans the country and its economy and policies for 1.4 Billion people and have the government be more efficient than the U.S. Legislators is giving him too much credit. I recommend you all watch on TH-cam "Vlog: How China involves Chinese people in policy-making process" by Li Jingjing and learn something new instead of being fed whatever lies the West has fed you.

How about China restoring respectful relations with Taiwan? No need for a ho between. Just respect their right to exist and govern themselves as they have done for generations now.
Well done Mr President, I hope that this sets an example to other countries, particularly in Asia and The Pacific. China must be made understand that they cannot 'bully' and threaten other countries.

anyone notice how the cnn correspondant from beijing had to say "Taipei" at the beginning? shows how they are forced to not reference taiwan as its own country, except when quoting someone.
Taiwan was originally China's territory, and it was occupied by Japan for a period of time. After Japan surrendered, Taiwan was unable to return to China due to the influence of the United States. Why are you so keen on splitting China? So obey the rhythm of public opinion brought to you by the United States?

China today has the same level of respect for the independence of smaller Pacific nations as Japan did in the 30s and early 40s for the same islands, for Korea, for China, and for SE Asian countries. None whatsoever.

I love Micnesia its a wonderful place. I'm sure this is the second time cnn has said the word, Micronesia. The first was a blip when they became a country.
Difference is they wanted their freedom from USA and got it some 40 years ago. America's former colonies asked for independence and were given it, though the US government still provides some services that they would be too small to handle themselves. Think China would do such a thing today?
The CCP assumed that, as the self-proclaimed "workshop of the world," it had some special, unassailable role in the global market. However, of the steps in the production process-idea/invention, design, fabrication, assembly, shipping-it was the center of only those last two steps. The first three are all done outside the CCP's domain; those final two can be done anywhere, and companies are quick to demonstrate that, given the CCP's incompetence, instability, and draconian, repressive activities. The CCP's repression is also why it will never produce ideas, inventions and innovations.

If everything you say is correct and the "Micronesia card" is something the US can play, and is at the bottom of the deck... then I would say the US is not desperate, it's actually a strategy of "compliance by 1000 nudges". It's a way of gently showing your position and slowly influencing others through it. It is typically used as a way of building compliance in the workplace while avoiding outright confrontation.

You are telling me a country like that trying to draw some line???? 😂😂😂
you mean the line that we cross but threaten them if they do? Like the "dont send weapons to Russia" (which they didn't) but we supply weapons to Ukraine and billions in weapons to Israel so it can bomb Palestinians? The fact that you see China as the one who crosses the line and not your own country tells me you're so damn brainwashed already.
I visited to island of Yap in Micronesia in 2015. I remember a local telling me that the Chinese had been throwing around a lot of money. Some of the Chinese were entrepreneurs trying to convince them to set up casinos and karaoke (KTV) bars. They also said that they were pushing hard to get the locals to accept funds to expand their airport. The reasoning was "if you build a bigger airport we can bring in more tourists." The locals said they knew it was because China wants to have an airstrip that can handle fighter jets. Yap is only 800km (500 miles) from Guam.

Dismissing concerns of others does not contribute to valorizing own concerns. And size does not matter in this regard.
Valorizing:
In Marxism, the valorisation or valorization of capital is the increase in the value of capital assets through the application of value-forming labour in production. The German original term is "Verwertung" but this is difficult to translate.
Wikipedia.
I still don't understand the comment.
@@veramae4098 I think Darkskay is saying that nation size does not equate to moral correctness and devaluing the concerns of others does not increase the objective value of our own concerns.
Worded differently: "Dismissing concerns of others generally does not contribute to increase the perceived legitimacy and weight of own concerns; or the perceived readiness to be more impartial towards concerns in general - respectively where appropriate and helpful, attach less weight to the provenance of the message, than the objectivity, importance and implications of the concern itself; which is usually shared by a significant number of entities, correlating with its objective and subjective weight."
So who supports Marxism here? Why is anyone watching this if they did.....
Can't be 50 cent army; western sympathisers possible hmm
Hope yall just well read
@DarkSkay dude, you have to tone down the professor speak. Most won't get it, and it comes off a bit pretentious. I appreciate it but the message may get lost.

1. Why did the president write a 13-page accusation that China has been bribing and threatening small countries for a long time, and the reporter did not report in depth what caused it and the relevant details?
2. Why do you only want the audience to know that the president is retiring, implying that he is about to have no political influence?
3. Why do you want to explain China's economic contributions and constructions in that country in just a few minutes of reporting?
4. Did you report that these constructions are for the benefit of the island nation or China itself?
Just like the former president of Ecuador accepted huge bribes from China, signed a huge public construction expenditure of 19 billion U.S. dollars with China, and then China built a hydroelectric power plant dam with a price of 2.8 billion U.S. dollars. After two years of use, there were 7648 cracks.
After that, when these countries do not pay back, they will almost permanently give their natural resources and minerals, such as oil over 90%, to China at the lowest cost. China then resells it to other countries for profit.
Then, the corrupt government cut at least 1,000 public employment opportunities in its own country for the sake of China.
3. This reporter, do you have a biased political position? Why use the way China calls Taiwan to call Taiwan with Taipei?
President Panuelo superb 👏 warning to china sir... 🇮🇳 🤝🇫🇲
The president is the western puppet
To think a country we helped on ww2 is now one of our greatest enemies and the country we dropped to nukes on is one of our best allies
only the U.S. sees them as their biggest enemy. U.S. doesn't want to be #2 so it does what it can to make everyone hate China.
Not much of a surprise considering the type of Government that rules China. Plus, China is following in the footsteps of Japan in terms of its economic ambitions. The Chinese Communist Party is a dictatorship, does not have much to do with Communism. The CCP has always viewed Taiwan as the prize. Autocratically ruled nations usually have a person who takes high risks and does not care about anyone much but are extremely focused or obsessed with achieving their goals.
@@superlight7654 Tell me you have no idea how the Chinese government legislates without telling me how you have no idea. The fact that you believe one man is responsible for orchestrating the whole show and plans the country and its economy and policies for 1.4 Billion people and have the government be more efficient than the U.S. Legislators is giving him too much credit.

The CCP assumed that, as the self-proclaimed "workshop of the world," it had some special, unassailable role in the global market. However, of the steps in the production process-idea/invention, design, fabrication, assembly, shipping-it was the center of only those last two steps. The first three are all done outside the CCP's domain; those final two can be done anywhere, and companies are quick to demonstrate that, given the CCP's incompetence, instability, and draconian, repressive activities. The CCP's repression is also why it will never produce ideas, inventions and innovations.

If everything you say is correct and the "Micronesia card" is something the US can play, and is at the bottom of the deck... then I would say the US is not desperate, it's actually a strategy of "compliance by 1000 nudges".

I visited to island of Yap in Micronesia in 2015. I remember a local telling me that the Chinese had been throwing around a lot of money. Some of the Chinese were entrepreneurs trying to convince them to set up casinos and karaoke (KTV) bars.
They also said that they were pushing hard to get the locals to accept funds to expand their airport. The reasoning was "if you build a bigger airport we can bring in more tourists." The locals said they knew it was because China wants to have an airstrip that can handle fighter jets. Yap is only 800km (500 miles) from Guam.
