I. Strange mentality of the Tw. 台人用支骂陆,好奇怪,因为只有12~48的岁月里皇国使用支这个称呼。因此难道不是支这个字只适用于台人自身吗???
People from tw seem to have an unfounded sense of superiority, and use a racial slur of 支 when referring to the mainland. This is very surprising, since that racial slur was only reserved for the years of Republic of C. Prior to 1911, the terminology is 清, as in日清戦争. After the founding of p.r. of C, the term is 中, as in 日中邦交正常化. Only during the in-between years was 支 used. From newspapers stoking public sentiment and sporting titles and headlines of 暴支膺惩 in the 1920’s, to 北支事変 of 1937, even to the米英支蘇 in大東亜戦争終結ノ詔書。So why are people from tw trying to belittle people from pc of C with a term that was only applied to r of C, which tw people themselves identify with??
On Fbook, people from tw claim that in ‘45, which is to say, under r of C, the Chinese could finally stand straight up. Have they not noticed the decree from the emperor? Even at the end of the War, Miguni (皇国) did not see it as by any means necessary to used the character of 中. They were still firmly refered to as 支.
Moreover, notice the order, US was ranked first, and UK was raked second. Did the British do anything to deserve that? From hk to Malay, to Burma, the British were lacklustre through and through. And yet they were placed before r of C. That should put shame on any sober minded person when investigating the international standing of r of C. Which is to say, not much.
III. Into Kr
Why did the troops had to intervene in Kr? Notice that the term is HAD. P.r. of C actually didn’t have a choice.
Northern Empire got r of C to hand over the rights of military occupation in the NE and NW, as well as for Mnglia to become a puppet state under the Northern Empire. In return, Chiang gets military aid. And so, on Jan 5th,'46, r of C signed Mnglia away, and on the 6th, it was published in the news and broadcast all over the world.
Except that, had the governmental letter spelled it out that Mnglia was conceded over to the North, something could have been done. But out of pure vanity, r of C announced that it was due to a democratic referendum. Thus, it could never be undone.
Fast forward a few years, Northern forces escorted the remnant of republican forces out of Manchuria, and was the only country whose embassy followed Chiang to GuangZhou, and then to ChongQing. Every other country stayed behind in Nanking to welcome the New China, including US and UK.
And so after the founding of pr of C, Mao announced that the country will clean up before welcoming guests, and nullified all treaties. But the Northern Empire didn’t want to leave. So they orchestrated a performance. They ordered Kim to unify the peninsula, and when UN voted to decide whether or not to intervene, their ambassador conveniently missed the day, so as not to veto the vote.
Once Kim’s forced were chased all the way back to the C border, the Northern Empire gloated with pride: just let our military stay in Manchuria, and they would ‘protect’ the new country from USA.
Thus, it was a choice of facing USA in Kr, or let Manchuria be under foreign control again.Was there a choice? Maybe for the old C, but for the new C, there was no choice but to fight for independence and dignity.
In ‘50, after the Chinese took PyongYang from the Americans, the Northern Empire was in a state of panic. If C could fend off the Americans by themselves, then Eastern Eu did not need Northern Empire for ‘protection’ anymore. As a result, the Northern Empire hastily sent military aid, so as to show that it was a combined effort, and not China’s lone feat.
After ‘53, the Chinese stayed in Kr and would not withdraw. After a prolonged negotiation, in 55, all Northern Empire’s forces left Manchuria, and in the following year all the Chinese returned.
This episode taught Kim a lesson, and so, starting in Dec ‘55, Kim started stating that N Kr would have the interest of N Kr over and above all. 主体。No longer looking to the Northern Empire, and no longer looking to Ch, Kr would not be a pawn to anybody, but would be firmly their own.
Urban legend has it, that when Kim I.S. was choosing a successor, he asked a question to all top officers: what if N Kr failed and is going to collapse?
Some cried, some were angry, only Kim J.I. said, if there is no more N Kr, then earth need not exist anymore. Kim I.S. was pleased, and chose Kim J.I. -- under this person’s leadership, N Kr will not become any foreign country’s puppet.
It’s time that Ch takes a lesson from Kim.

II. Community owned companies/ State enterprise/ Crown Corporations
At the current state, party leadership assumes the entire top executives, including but not limited to, president of the company, board of directors, CEO, CFO, quality control. Since oversight and auditing are but rare occasions, mal-handling of state assets is rampant.
Wouldn’t it be nice if the party council mainly provides supervision and scrutiny? Thus, CEO, CFO, as well as the head of quality control, can be hired from the public, with thorough background check and security clearance, while the party council of the state enterprise checks the performance of such top executives, and are held responsible for incorrect policies, as well as any consequence due to insufficient scrutiny and oversight. Of course, the party council maintains the main task of guiding the company on the correct vision, and ensures that the missions of departments allign with public interest.
CEO can be responsible for the increase of company assets, reduction of debts, improvement of sales, betterment of employee benefits, and the strengthening of research and development. Quality department can also oversee waste-reduction and treatment.
