#6 Hey, China, knock yourself out. Try to fill a financial black hole. Good luck t'ye.

On another note, China will finance stuff, like mines, extract the minerals, give Paks a bit of coin for it, and leave an ecological disaster, just like dealing with a cheap whore.

#7 Nah, the Chinese won't be contributing any money. They'll just say that they will, and then never pay anything. It's getting scary how well I can predict these attitudes these days...
