Transcript
- 0:05Hi, I'm Jason. And this is the slippery slope.
- 0:09So for quite a while now a, there's been a lot of people, a
- 0:14lot of people in the financial sector have been ringing.
- 0:18The alarm Bells regarding China and saying that they are heading
- 0:23for a financial collapse. And a lot of very smart people
- 0:29been saying this This also there.
- 0:32Now there's a lot of you know, I like to express how my biblical
- 0:38beliefs, my Christian faith. And there are a lot of what I've
- 0:44called pastors or people that, that talk a lot about Bible
- 0:49prophecy. And, and I've had Pastor Tom
- 0:53Hughes on this on the slippery slope before and people like
- 0:58pass the time you use, talk about how In the Bible, China,
- 1:03the country is not mentioned as being not portrayed, as being a
- 1:09superpower actually, there's probably only one superpower
- 1:12that's talked about in the in what's portrayed, as the end
- 1:17times in the Bible. And I say this, because at the
- 1:20same time, like I said, we have Financial gurus, for lack of a
- 1:26better word saying that for that, China is heading.
- 1:30In, in a dangerous Direction, with possibly a financial
- 1:34collapse. And obviously, we had died in an
- 1:37episode last year towards the end of last year.
- 1:39And we did talk a little bit about evergrande and the class
- 1:43of ever ground and what that is doing the massive mountain of
- 1:47debt, that the company had and what that is possibly meaning
- 1:51for China now or the, the Chinese Communist Party.
- 1:57Now just from today, two, different articles.
- 2:00That really piqued my interest in one is from Reuters and the
- 2:06headline says a new Oriental laid off, 60 thousand staff,
- 2:10after China's education, Crackdown the founder says it
- 2:15goes on to talk about how China's new Oriental, which is
- 2:18the name of the company. Dismissed, a 60,000 employees.
- 2:22That's all operating income plunge by 80%, after Beijing and
- 2:26force. He's sweeping rules on the
- 2:28country's progress, education, industry that bad for proper
- 2:32tutoring last year, according to its founder.
- 2:36You meant Hong, who founded the company in 1993.
- 2:40Published the figures on his official WeChat account on
- 2:43Saturday. In a disclosure that showed how
- 2:45the Crackdown in July 20 21 hit, what was once one of China's
- 2:50largest private tutoring firms? The WeChat post did not specify
- 2:56time period for the drop in operating profits prior to the
- 2:59new rules. In you Oriental, add employed
- 3:02105 thousand, two hundred staff, including 54 thousand two
- 3:08hundred teachers according to its website, Chinese authorities
- 3:12last year, banned for profit tutoring in subjects on the
- 3:17school. Curriculum in an effort to ease
- 3:19pressure on children and parents leading to a wave of school
- 3:23closings. Szura's and layoffs across the
- 3:25private education sector. Isn't this?
- 3:29It really highlights the issues. When you have a totalitarian
- 3:33government, communist rule like that.
- 3:36We have they can just ban for proper tutoring.
- 3:39Just blanket ban and a whole industry, virtually collapses.
- 3:46Anyway so we've got this okay. We're whether the government can
- 3:50just Bring this band is called the collapse of this industry,
- 3:55virtually, and we've seen over the last over the last 12
- 4:01months. Or so, how the Chinese
- 4:03government has also cracked down on on free, press on the
- 4:08expression on free expression and and the Democratic any free
- 4:15press that would support democracy and they've literally
- 4:19just closed down newspapers. Has closed down Democratic
- 4:25supporting and media with in Hong Kong just overnight, just
- 4:30it's just amazing. The the Raider, which they, the
- 4:33speed at which they move. So, we have this article talking
- 4:35about that and now just one more, which is also comes from
- 4:38Reuters. And this talks about Chinese
- 4:41developer, shim, Al oversee pronounce, it puts all property
- 4:45projects on sale now, Shanghai Shimmer Shimmer how Group
- 4:52Holdings has put on sale all of its real estate projects
- 4:55including both residential and Commercial properties.
- 4:58As the cash-strapped Chinese property developer accelerates
- 5:03asset disposals. Now just for starters, the fact
- 5:10that it's a second major property developer that is in
- 5:16major Financial stress, you know, along with ever Grant it's
- 5:20just But if that's not ringing the bells, ringing alarm bells
- 5:25for financial markets around the world.
- 5:28I don't know what is in a continuing on, with this shim
- 5:31out who, which defaulted on a trust loan.
- 5:34Last week, has asked agents since last December to help seek
- 5:38buyers for its properties. Cac's in reported over the
- 5:41weekend, I'm sorry. If I'm mispronouncing that the
- 5:44company didn't immediately respond to a request for
- 5:47comment. Shemale group is largely Focused
- 5:52on residential property development with Shanghai shimau
- 5:55construction being its main China, business platform.
- 5:59Shanghai shemale Co limited controlled by shemale group.
- 6:03Mainly develops commercial properties.
- 6:06Now shoo, meow has struck a preliminary, preliminary deal
- 6:11with a Chinese state-owned company to sell.
- 6:14Its shim, our International Plaza.
- 6:16Shanghai a commercial property on shanghai's and Nanjing Road
- 6:20for more than 10 billion won caching.
- 6:24Reported the property developer said last week that it has
- 6:28defaulted on a trust loan payment.
- 6:30While it's unit Shanghai. Shemale construction has
- 6:34proposed extensions on maturities for to asset-backed
- 6:37Securities. Do this month.
- 6:40Shemale has thirty four point two billion won worth of
- 6:44outstanding ABS as well as five point seven two billion dollars
- 6:50worth of bonds. According to SAI shin.
- 6:57So look the main reason why I'm talking about this is like I
- 7:02said, a lot of people have been discussing the possibility of or
- 7:07Ring the Alarm bells for a possible Financial collapse from
- 7:11China. Okay.
- 7:13And we've seen the Crackdown on financial markets and the crack
- 7:19down on people taking bribes within the Chinese government.
- 7:23Also a Crackdown on Free Press, ok.
- 7:26Specially in Hong Kong. And like I said, we have people
- 7:30like people who I would respect as prominent Bible prophecy
- 7:36teachers. Also pointing out that China is
- 7:41not mentioned in end time prophecy and the reason why I'm
- 7:45saying all this is all these things are starting to come
- 7:48together now, we've seen another property, developer collapsing,
- 7:53it would seem another markets with the education department.
- 7:57Looks like it's collapsing within China, a massive
- 8:00industry. We've obviously seen ever
- 8:02Grande. You know, I think it was three
- 8:05hundred billion, three hundred billion It was worth of debt and
- 8:12there's so many other things happening in China.
- 8:14Just last week, I heard report. It seems like it's true.
- 8:19That China is also being stockpiling, stockpiling food,
- 8:24stockpiling grain, within the country, and which seemed very
- 8:30strange. We've also seen them do other
- 8:32strange things like, you know, stopping the, the export of
- 8:36urea, which is what we use for our adblue, which is why we're
- 8:41possibly hitting for a bit of a catastrophe ourselves.
- 8:44If we don't fix up this for our, for our diesel, trucks in
- 8:49trains. And why is China doing all these
- 8:52things that seem a little strange.
- 8:54What are they trying to Stave off?
- 8:56Is it possibly? They just trying to Stave off an
- 9:00inevitable Financial collapse, you know, with doing things like
- 9:05like storing grain story. Seafood.
- 9:11I don't know, the whole situation is very strange.
- 9:14I don't know what else to say about it.
- 9:16All I know is The Bible seems to indicate that China will not be
- 9:23around as a superpower in the end times.
- 9:29During the tribulation times which I've spoken about before,
- 9:33this is something you should watch something that we should
- 9:36all be watching. What's happening in China.
- 9:38Don't bury our heads in the sand and pretend like everything is
- 9:42going to be. All right?
- 9:44I don't believe it is. I think we're in for a rough
- 9:46ride. It's going to be interesting.
- 9:49This is all my opinion. Thank you for listening to the
- 9:52slippery slope.
