The effects had kicked off that quickly? My memory betrays me again.
BiggusDickus:It’s a comparison with the Taiwanese economy same time last year. It is pretty special.

You forgot one. China gives world disease, world helps cover it up and is slow/unwilling to react. China is now ultra confident they own the planet and start expanding.

World was very slow on the Uyghur thing too.
