China presenc in Latin America

   

The presence of china in Guatemala is huge in many ways. Let’s start with a router for the internet.  These routers are sold by thousands. At the bottom of the picture you can see, Made in China. Also the channels decoders are made in China.  And the tiny black object is a portable router.  One can connect online everywhere if there is coverage and it is easy to carry everywhere and very powerful.  It is made in China too.  The other picture is about assortments for telephones.  I asked them if these were from China.  They did not want to tell me where the items come from because there is not a real treaty with China.  Guatemala and Taiwan are friends.  And the US does not want China to step in Central America, but it is there already in big-time.  The quality of the technology is very good. It works.  I am using them and they are not expensive, and these are sold all over the nation.  So, all kind of Chinese products are in Latin America.

Film review

The Wolf Brigade

The Wolf Brigade

This is a futuristic film about the unification of North and South Korea.  Time setting for this film is between 2020 and 2025. The Korean nations agreed to unify their country, but the interest of Japan, China and Russia see that as a threat, and to make thing worse, they imposed sanctions to Korea.  The plot starts when those who opposed the union, The Sect, showed their power demonstrating on the street their disagreement. Supposedly, the sect was a terrorist group, so an special group run by the government tried to extinguish the sect.  The government showed its power by killing a group of innocent students by mistake. And the struggle for power among the government, gave place to eliminate one another. Also it showed how one group spy the other group and trying to protect themselves from the public scrutiny.  Overall, it is a good movie, good stunts, good dialogue, good acting and projects possible imaginary problems for the unification of the two nations.  I couldn’t see where the movie was film and the name of the actors. It is an action and realistic movie.
