Where else would "within our borders" refer to, simple one?

Only as long as the Chinese Government keeps pumping large amounts of money. When that stops, you will fail.

1) You CAN'T 'call in your loans'. They are BONDS. They have TERMS. Whatever maturity your country bought... that is how long you hold them. Unless you wish to sell them on the open market.

2) China is sitting on the edge. THEY are about to face a similar collapse of their real estate bubble if the government doesn't continue pumping money into the economy. Enjoy that.

3) Thailand is its own country.

4) FREE TIBET
