My introduction
Thanks to China Writer Wei Ling Chua for providing the article on Japan…
Profit seeking firms use their money to do the talking while their Judeo-vassal politicians did the opposite.
Economically, Asia (Mainland, Russia, the Two Koreas, Japan and Taiwan Province) are tightly integrated and very much inter-dependent for their mutual, win-win success. This virtuous web is rapidly expanding to include, ASEAN, the Stans and Iran in Central Asia, as well as Nepal, Mongolia, etc..
Taiwan Province
Taiwan Province’s first company opened on the Mainland in 1983. There are now over 130,000 Taiwanese businesses there, and one million Taiwanese, about 5% of the island’s population, who live and work there. By 2024, Taiwanese had already pumped US$3.6 billion into Mainland’s economy, making lots of money all the while.
Taiwan Province’s huge number of businesses for a relatively small investment level follows the island’s manufacturing modus operandi: small and medium enterprises, down to mom-and-pop size, that stretch all across the horizon. While Taiwan Province exports steel, manufactures vehicles and is the global leader in microchips, the vast majority of making stuff is in the hands of independent entrepreneurs, often involving multi-generational families.
In fact, it is now the second- and third-generation sons and daughters who are running their Taiwanese family businesses on the Mainland.
Taiwanese investment on the Mainland continues at double-digit rates and the two economies are integrated for manufacturing, R&D, supply chains and logistics.
Japan has over 1,200 businesses established in Taiwan Province and, living here, I can attest that it’s commercial presence is humongo. Taiwanese are smitten with Japan’s high-quality products.
Mainland China has 1,600 businesses on Taiwan Island and has invested US$1.3 billion, with double digit growth, ongoing.
Two Koreas
ROK has 68,000 businesses on the Mainland. Over the last 40 years, they have invested a whopping US$550 billion in China! This demonstrates that Korean manufacturing is on a much bigger scale (Samsung, Hyundai) than Taiwan’s entrepreneurial, small-scale factories. Growth continues at double-digit rates.
As well, ROK has over 2,300 businesses on Taiwan Island and has invested US$1.3 billion in Japan.
Japan has US$6.1 billion invested in ROK.
DPRK has 2-3 million citizens living and working in China, along its border. Cross-border trade is vibrant, 24-7.
The Mainland has invested US$280 million in DPRK’s economy.
Russia has many joint ventures inside DPRK along its narrow, 12km border.
Cross-border trade with DPRK in 2025 is estimated at US$300 million with Russia and US$1.5 billion with China. So much for Judeo-West’s genocidal sanctions, trying to crush the North. It ain’t happening. Not to mention DPRK has hypersonic missiles and NATO doesn’t!
Should I mention that both Russia and China have full military defense treaties with DPRK? Fugg with DPRK and you get the world’s two best armies on your throat, not to mention thermonuclear ICBMs that can incinerate both California and New England!
Integration is everything in Asia
Starting to get the integration picture?
Japan
Despite geopolitical tensions, over 50,000 Japanese firms operate in China
Over the decades, Japan has pumped US$130 billion in the Mainland. Again, like ROK, they tend to be large scale, household names such as vehicles (Nissan, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi) and electronics (Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba).
Japan’s actual foreign direct investment (FDI) into China surged by 55.5% year-on-year in the first three quarters of 2025, driven by, among other factors, intensified collaboration in manufacturing, technology, and electric vehicles. Despite geopolitical tensions, over 50,000 Japanese firms operate in China, which remains a vital market.
- Key Growth Figures: Data from the Ministry of Commerce showed this sharp increase, with many Japanese companies, including Panasonic, Toyota, and Toshiba, deepening their commitment.
- Strategic Factors: The surge is attributed to companies aiming to secure their position in the Chinese market, optimize supply chains, and leverage new, high-quality development opportunities.
- Survey Findings: A 2025 survey indicated that 58% of Japanese companies plan to maintain or increase their investment in China, regarding it as a top-three market.
- Broader Context: While some firms have restructured or withdrawn, the overall trend reflects a strategic balancing act by Japanese firms to mitigate global economic headwinds and trade pressures.
This 55.5% increase highlights that, for many, the Chinese market remains essential despite fluctuating bilateral relations.
All this, while Mainland China has invested US$4.9 billion in Japan.
Talk about circular integration!
Conclusion
I could go on and on with Asia’s integration: Hong Kong, Macau, Mongolia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, etc. Asians in general are patient, Confucist-Daoist-Buddhist, work hard, make sacrifices, know how to make things and how make money from them.
At the same time, BRI is pulling Central Asia (all the Stans + Iran and Nepal) into this ever-expanding orgy of economic success.
The big joker is India. It is insanely envious of Sinoland’s success, avoiding collaboration and trying to find its own non-China path. Good luck with that.
India’s problem is it’s uber-Judeo-capitalist and irrationally nationalist. Over 70% of its GDP goes to the richest 1%. No wonder millions starve every year, abject slums and poverty stretch for kilometers and its infrastructure is generations behind communist-socialist Sinoland. It has the #3 GDP, but look who is sucking it all out of the hands of the long-suffering masses. Like most everywhere else, India’s 1% owes their loyalty to usurious, Talmud-Torah City of London.
Talmud-Torah USA is not much better: 50% of its GDP goes to the richest 1%. Gotta love capitalism!
Need I mention Russia? It has the world’s fourth biggest economy, with very advanced technology and manufacturing. It is 100% energy and food independent. Not many countries can offer this total package to its citizens. Headlines are full of successful Sino-Russian financial cooperation, trade and economic win-win policies, again, increasing in double digits.
The little joker is the Philippines. For the first time since nominal independence in 1946, it had five glorious years of Chinese cooperation under President Rodrigo Duterte, 2017-2022. It’s all been stolen back by the 10 billionaire families who own the country like it’s their private property, which it is. Duterte’s successor, Bongbong Marcos is a corrupt cocaine addict who is completely compromised by Uncle Slaughter. The latter has turned the country into an air force base to attack China. All people-focused development projects with China have been suspended. Back to Judeo-business as usual
Just look at the map below. Mainland China is Asia’s manufacturing, supply chain and logistic hub, and there is a steady, circular flow of talent, capital and manufacturing between all of them, increasing in most cases by double digits.
The Talmud-Torah Satanists in the West are slobbering to steal all these Asian trillions in wealth that they don’t control. They financially harvested Japan’s rising success in the Crash of 1988, then the Asian Tigers’ riches during the planned Crash of 1997.
Asia is back in total solidarity and that leaves the Judeo-West only one final option to crush it: World War III…
