US Plans $553MN Sri Lanka Port Terminal To Rival China
The US International Development Finance Corp (DFC) announced Wednesday plans to build a new deep-water container terminal at the port in Sri Lanka’s capital, Colombo, for $553 million.
Sri Lanka has already received massive investment in its ports from Beijing’s Belt and Road Initiative, and the DFC plans are seen as an attempt to rival China’s infrastructure influence.
The Colombo port has a terminal run by China Merchants Port Holdings, while a $1.4 billion Chinese investment project plans to build a casino resort on reclaimed land.
Heard through the grapevine that the minimum wage in Florida is $15 per hour now. Apart from all the alligator swamps and Mexicans having a great time, that's about it. Good luck with you move.
I bet most of the prejudice crew are pointing a finger at Trump convicting him before he was even charged. Trump is named in the documents four times. However, there is no indication that he has committed any wrongdoing and he has not been charged with involvement in Epstein’s crimes. Jmo.
Hi GS, I find that your comment makes much more sense than most of the comments above.
Maybe if they lowered the criteria for becoming a POTUS things would be much more rosy in the States. The hero worship amazes you? It shouldn't, who else do these people have to idolize?
Was listening to an interview with Kennedy the other day and he sounds like a Trump blueprint.
Two old age pensioners fighting to govern America is beyond belief ,and as I stated before frankly laughable.
"You only see what you want to see and hear what you want to hear, you have an inability to see the whole picture."
Don't agree. The whole picture for you and your kind is a planet going up in smoke, a lawless place where everyone 'thinks' they are free but are far from it. The mere fact of voting in someone like Biden just to suppress Trump already proves how totally insane the Democrat's mindset is.
Your statements:
"If Trump becomes President, all he will do for 4 years is run a vendetta against all those who opposed his pocket-lining actions and criminality" And: "He will do nothing, feck all, zero for the average American, he will allow Russia to bulldoze Ukraine and turn a blind eye when Putin carries out "police action" in the Baltic region. He will be too busy ling and screwing those who saw him for what he is, a miserable con artist."
Proves to me just what kind of people the democrats are. Only one person in a Democrat's life that matter, and that's 'ME'.
Well you and your type should be worried and many sane folk that have seen how badly the Democrat's have treated Trump will be encouraging him all the way if he chose to follow up on all the unnecessary lies and damage your type have caused him.
As for your insults, they don't bother me in the least.:laugh
A 17-year-old student at Perry High School in Iowa shot six people at the school before turning the gun on himself, police told reporters on Thursday. One victim, a sixth-grader, died at the scene, while four other students and an administrator were hospitalized. I could debunk your whole list one by one but decided I can't do that to a miserable confused person.
Hi B Don't believe all you read, especially from bloggers as that will most certainly affect your way of thinking negatively. One can clearly see how main stream media has control over the publics minds in certain countries. Scary.
Ken, Console yourself and arrange a party between all you Trump Haters so that you guys can wallow in misery together when Trump 'dons' the presidential cap this year. Pun intended.
Hi Grand, I want you to to observe that this blog is merely (wishful thinking) advice from me to Trump (not sure if it'll ever get to him ), but I can nearly assure you that he won't heed my advice and step down from the race. Trump most probably will run this year and Trump will most surely become POTUS again Do not by any means think this is a negative blog.
I hear you and dont want to argue over semantics. Trump, bless his soul, is trying his utmost to get the US on the right road again after the current POTUS and family totally made the once great country a laughing stock. The Majority of 'men in the street' are believing in the honest and devout man that they think can bring some rationale to a country thats falling apart. Its not only me saying this, do some research. Anyway as I mentioned above, most of the American public is convinced that this absolute great leader, Trump, will be able to winch them up and pull them out of the pits of hell. that are forgetting is that he is only HUMAN. The task that lies ahead is tailored for a 'super-human' and not for someone that has been abused in more ways than one. Remember, Trump is a good vulnerable gent.
Not sure if I get you, are you saying that I need YOUR permission if I want to write about someone or something? You got 2 hopes bud, and some advice, YOU get the f' over it and just pass a blog that's boring or distasteful in YOUR minds eye. No one asked you to stop by and lay an egg. Who TF cares if Trump won or lost. If you cant stick to the blog subject rather pass on. End. Full Stop.
Blog Topic??? Biden's pathetic weak leadership and lack of foreign policy strategy have crippled the United States' power and influence on the whole world . Afghanistan has fallen to the Taliban, China has ramped up its aggression against Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the Uyghurs, and now, Russia has invaded Ukraine. And the war in Gaza. Biden's poor foreign policy decisions have fueled the rise of the Taliban and Russia's aggression against Ukraine. WW3 has never been so tangible. I wont even mention more detail on Afghanistan. Always tried to figure why someone would want to spend their days on the islands, and of course its the 'King of the castle' thing. There, most everyone believes the tripe you spew and the young girls think you're a hero? Back to the blog: This blog is definitely not about Biden's talents. (he has NONE) Its about a pure, honest and decent man trying his utmost to save whats left of a country that has been abused and plundered by father and son, and I think it would take at least 2 Trump life-times to fix the mess your hero created. Get it??? I doubt it.
I agree with the OP wholeheartedly. Democracy means you are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. Bellows was totally prejudice in her decision in taking Trump off the ballot.
Maine's secretary of state on Thursday ruled former President Trump is disqualified from holding office and appearing on the state's primary ballot under section 3 of the 14th Amendment over his role in the Jan. 6, 2021 assault on the U.S. Capitol.
Doesn't matter if her decision is in for review, the damage is done.
This witch hunt against Trump has been going on since 2016, and just proves how 'low-life' Democrats are in real life. Fuelling the Ukraine war and now the Gaza massacre.
The ONLY reason I can think why they are so terrified of Trump is because he opposes their (Democrats) believe in Globalism and War mongering.
I know that some couples like to strangle each other on the point of climax but I've never heard of using a Noose. Apparently the strangling or choking helps one to climax like a pig. Never tried it myself so wouldn't know if it's true though.
The only rabid one here is the one always looking for more replies to her idiotic comments. Hence you will note that each and every comment will always have some or other question in the hope of a reply. Some beaches are totally reliant on a 'reply' fix, even if she is making a fool out of herself. Must be living a helluva lonely boring life. My comment is directed to me myself so no need for any sort of a reply. Just like to see my own words.
@ wanker, I could call you a petty wanker but decided to give you credit for consistency Bhati. Best wishes for 2024 for you wanker and always remember, God/Allah loves you.
