Once again, I’m Chris Chappell. See you next time.

The head of Myanmar’s military government is visiting China for the first time since taking power. This is the first time in over three years that Myanmar’s junta chief has traveled to China, and he is due to visit the city of Kunming, which is not so far from the Myanmar border, for a series of talks and summits on regional economic cooperation, according to a report from state-run TV. The report said he will also have “meetings with Chinese government officials to discuss ways to enhance goodwill, economic and various sectors between the two governments and the people.” Because who would know more about improving economies than China? Everybody. The answer is everybody. Myanmar is in a devastating civil war, and the military junta has recently faced a series of losses. China’s been backing both sides through different measures, which we’ve covered before on the show. Some opposition groups in Myanmar have expressed their concern about China hosting

Many of the Trump Administration’s policies towards China remained in place during the Biden Administration. Because even “Sleepy Joe” was alert enough to see China as a threat. But this time around, the philosophy professor says, China knows how much such policies will hurt, and they will come at a time when China’s domestic economy is not doing well. That’s… a bit of an understatement. China’s economy is an absolute dumpster fire on wheels. And Canada, the US, and many European countries are already placing tariffs on Chinese EV imports and other goods after accusing China of dumping on the market. But China doesn’t care that Trump won! Just look at how not-nervous Xi looks. We’ll just have to wait and see how it all plays out for China… Or, maybe not! Because major US-listed Chinese stocks are already falling after Trump’s win, with his tariff promises in the spotlight.

Neither country is commenting much on the issue at this time, and it’s likely going to take much longer before Vietnam’s efforts could match those of China’s militarized islands in the South China Sea. But this could eventually allow Vietnam to counter China’s attempts to claim waters in its territory, especially since the CCP has its hands full dealing with Taiwan and the Philippines. Man, China is making so many enemies they can’t keep track of their enemies. They’re spread thinner than Xi’s skin when he sees this image. Seriously, don’t share it. It makes him *real* mad. Philippine forces have retaken an island in mock combat right in front of China’s navy. This was the first such exercise of its kind and showed off Philippine military capabilities as Chinese warships nearby watched on. General Romeo Brawner Jr. observed the drills from a frigate and

Shares of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba fell by as much as 4.5%, while JD.com fell by 7.7%, and Bilibili stock fell by 7.8%. Call those stocks Tom Petty, cause they’re free fallin’. Meanwhile, as the final results of the election started coming in, the Hong Seng Index dropped 2.2%, and the Shanghai Composite Index fell by 0.1%. This may have something to do with the 10-20% tariffs across the board that Trump has suggested imposing–with 60% tariffs on Chinese goods. A 60% tariff on Chinese goods could reduce Chinese GDP growth by 2.4 percentage points, according to Citi analysts. And given that China’s *official* GDP growth numbers are already just barely hanging on – with the actual numbers probably far lower – that could be a serious blow to China.

underscored how the exercise displayed the readiness of the Philippine forces. Brawner told a small group of journalists who were invited to see the exercises that, “We are warning our neighbors or whoever or any external forces that we are capable of defending our islands.” Brawner has even said that the Chinese ships nearby added realism to the exercise. As if Filipino ships hadn’t already had enough realistic encounters with Chinese boats. The Philippines and China have been clashing for a long time over disputed islands and waters in the South China Sea. And the US has repeatedly warned the CCP that it is obligated by treaty to defend the Philippines should tensions escalate into war. Chinese officials have not commented on this drill, but, in the past, they’ve opposed war drills entirely in the South China Sea. Unless, of course, the People’s Liberation Army Navy is the one conducting them!

and stop and not repeat the harassment and illegal capture of Vietnamese vessels and fishermen.” The disputed Paracel Islands are claimed by Vietnam but have been occupied by China since 1974. China, of course, disputes Vietnam’s version of events. I assume China’s version is, “We — as always — did nothing wrong, quit hating, haters.” China and Vietnam have a testy relationship historically, going back to a Chinese invasion of its southern neighbor back in 1979 that didn’t end too well for the CCP. China had a bad time invading Vietnam? Man, they’ve been copying the US for decades! But the CCP might find it much more difficult to bully Vietnamese fishermen now than they did in the past. Because Vietnam is ramping up construction of artificial islands in the South China Sea. Analysts are suggesting that this could lead to a militarization of the area, with an airfield even being built on the Barque Canada Reef.

Chinese stocks are falling after Donald Trump wins the US elections. Vietnam is ramping up artificial island building in the South China Sea. And a Philippine military drill focuses on liberated occupied islands–in plain view of the Chinese military! That and more on this week’s China news headlines. Welcome to China Uncensored, I’m Chris Chappell. This episode is sponsored by Incogni. You probably know that companies are collecting your personal data. But you may not realize just how many. Dozens, maybe hundreds—most of which you’ve never heard of. And you have no idea what they’re doing with it. Incogni helps stop them. I’ll explain more at the end. Donald Trump will be the next President of the United States. So what does the Chinese Communist Party think about this? Eh, it doesn’t care. At least, that’s the official story.

True, but when you say it for payments to the tune of $2.3 million, it’s just a *little* bit different. And after the break, Vietnam and the Philippines are getting tough on China. Welcome back. Vietnam is taking a harsher stance on Chinese aggression by demanding Beijing return detained Vietnamese fishermen and ramping up island-building. Vietnam claims that a number of Vietnamese fishermen have been detained by China near the Paracel Islands for quote unquote illegal fishing, although they haven’t said when these fishermen were detained or how many were taken. And last week, the deputy spokesperson for Vietnam’s Foreign Affairs Ministry called on China to release them. At a news conference on Halloween, he said, “Vietnam resolutely opposes China’s actions, and requests China to fully respect Vietnam’s rights over the Paracel Islands, release all illegally detained Vietnamese fishermen and vessels, compensate for damage,

are both members of a small political party on the island called the CUPP–the China Unification Promotion Party. Which is pretty self-explanatory. The party only has about 60,000 members. But the indictment is actually pretty significant because Taipei, in the past, has struggled to connect Chinese cash payouts to the CUPP. Which indicates that the 2020 Anti-Infiltration Act has changed things. The Investigation Bureau of Taiwan’s Ministry of Justice said in its statement Monday that authorities investigating Chang Meng-chung and his wife searched 24 locations between December 2023 and July of this year. The bureau said it seized mobile phones, computers, financial records, and other evidence. According to the prosecutors, China’s Taiwan Affairs Office in Beijing and its branch office in Fujian province paid the couple between 2011-23. I guess it’s nice to see given the

The official response to the election results was formulaic. Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Mao Ning said, “Our policy towards the US is consistent… We will continue to view and handle China-US relations in accordance with the principles of mutual respect, peaceful co-existence, and win-win cooperation.” Which makes sense. I mean, what else are they going to say? That they wish he lost and that he’s a horrible, terrible meanie? They’re not MSNBC. Besides, that would probably end about as well as it ultimately did for the Democrats. But unofficially, some are telling a different story. One philosophy professor at the National Taiwan University said that everyone he was speaking with was talking about the election. He told Fox News Digital that Trump’s victory is “a worst-case scenario” for Beijing. Relations between Washington and the CCP are already strained, and Trump has vowed to impose heavier tariffs on China.

the junta chief, since the junta is sanctioned by many Western nations for human rights abuses. Not that China would ever listen to concerns about human rights abuses! Beijing has been concerned about potential spillovers of the violence from both sides and has failed to broker a ceasefire numerous times. But now, the CCP wants to make its concerns heard loud and clear, including by shutting down borders and cutting electricity to Myanmar towns, among other measures. Wow… so Xi does care. Now, I’ve got a video to show you that you’re going to love, but first, this episode is sponsored by Incogni.

state of China’s economy that Beijing is able to offer steady income to somebody. And what did they do in exchange? Well, allegedly, they promoted candidates favored by Beijing, disparaged Hong Kong democracy activists and members of Falun Gong, boasted about China’s military power, and urged Taiwan’s troops to surrender in the event of a Chinese invasion. So they were shills. I hope China at least gives them some commemorative swag. “I sold out my country and all I got was some money, a prison sentence, and this poorly made T-shirt.” Prosecutors also allege the couple went to mainland China several times to provide program summaries and plans for CCP authorities to review. China hasn’t commented on the arrest, but Chang says “Taiwan says it’s democratic, but it’s not democratic at all. The CUPP has always been championing cross-strait reunification, so what I said is the same as what the CUPP has always advocated.”

Of course, those same analysts believe that threat is going to be used as a bargaining chip by Trump rather than actually implemented. Which makes sense. It’s a gamble. You can take the man out of the casinos, but you can’t take the casinos out of the man. Especially when his name is on them. Of course, the stock market being the stock market, the panic eased up in the days after the election, and several of the stocks rebounded. So I guess we’re back to, “we’ll have to wait and see how this all plays out.” A Taiwanese couple has been indicted for being paid by the CCP to spread their propaganda and influence elections. The couple, a man named Chang Meng-chung and his wife, Hung Wen-ting, were charged with violating Taiwan’s Anti-Infiltration Act and election laws by making radio and digital media propaganda for Beijing in exchange for $2.32 million, paid out over more than a decade!
