BANGKOK (AP) Chinas Xi is making the case for free trade as he tours Southeast Asia this week, presenting China as a source of stability and certainty.
On Monday, he was welcomed to Hanoi with pomp and ceremony by Vietnams President Luong Cuong.
He arrived in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysias capital, later Tuesday, for a three-day visit and will end his tour with a stop in Cambodia.
In Hanoi, Xi had a meeting with Vietnams Communist Party General Secretary To Lam, where he said the two countries have brought the world valuable stability and certainty in a turbulent world. He also paid respects at the mausoleum of Ho Chi Minh, the founder of the Vietnamese Communist Party.

(79,854 posts)He has been able to destroy a 250 year old democracy in a few months.
The most important, strongest, richest democracy in the history of the world.
And turn it into a third world fascist country.
Took some talent to accomplish that.

(21,950 posts)They will establish themselves as the monetary standard, leaving the US behind, They will rely heavily on the countries they cultivated over the last decades to hold onto manufacturing supremacy. They will use the plans and schematics of the US companies manufacturing in China to build trade supremacy with the rest of the world.
trump's hubris was the gift that tipped the scales for China.
We don't even have allies now.
