The Korean times reported
[ED] Taking Beijing to WTO
"Korea should stop its appeasement tactics in dealing with China"
what Appeasement? The thaads sk is determined to deploy? Even though it's threatening Chinese national security and sovereignty?
"At the top of the list is Beijing’s move to keep tourists from traveling to Korea. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese tourists have been reduced to a trickle following Korea’s decision to deploy a U.S. Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missile"
This is the typical self absorbed behavior of a halfwitted narcissist. Has sk ever think that Chinese people value their national security and they are blaming sk? So why would they visit sk?
"Then, Lotte and E-mart, big Korean retailers were harassed by a sudden surge in tax audits and citations of violations related to fire safety."
"Also Chinese banks’ disapproval of overseas remittances by Korean firms and delayed permit issuances."
sudden surge and delay? How sudden, how much surge and how much delay? This are all buzz words. How do they know other shops are not check for fire safety or permits delayed?
"A look at these cases shows a long pattern of Chinese behavior — luring foreign firms for technology and knowhow and kicking them out when their usefulness is up"
this is another random S korean rhetoric. Seems like vw, ford, apple, Intel, Walmart, KFC, and many others are still there. Lotte and E-mart are still welcome there but they can't force people to shop there. China host many foreign companies as long as they don't violate their laws, sovereignty and national security. Are koreans saying china will kick KFC out once they learn how to fry chicken?
