Yes, that is exactly what we and the rest of the third world needed. I mean a way to metric country performance on various goals in a fair manner. However, the challenge is getting a frame of references since no one have kept any record of any performance. Thus, it is up to us to set record for the rest of the third world, and I am confidence that we will be a great role model for the rest of the third world countries.
The fucking Chinese never benefited us (Khmer) anything without returning anything to them.
It was too bad that President Truman refused to let Gen. McCathor to nuke the fucking commi.
Again, the fucking Chinese never benefited anything.
Warning: The Chinese will eat almost everything.
You got to be blind, Dude. The Chinese is not only just benefited us, but also most part of the world.
Fuck the China!
The US had the opportunity to nuke them! Truman should have listened to Gen. McCarthur.
Now it's too late.
Fuck the Chinese!
Okay then, it wasn't meant to be. So just live with it and stop whining.
