The 46-page presentation NBC News obtained said the economic zone would be a $3 billion project encompassing 1,700 square miles.
At issue in El Salvador is a proposal to expand and develop a Japanese-built deep water port called La Unión, located in the Gulf of Fonseca at the intersection of Salvadoran, Honduran, and Nicaraguan territory. China is proposing to expand the port and establish trade zones that would exclude U.S. and European companies, allowing Chinese port operators, Chinese shipping companies, and likely Chinese service providers, to dominate the zones, Ellis said. China aims to use the port and the zones to import Chinese products and distribute them to other Central American markets without involving local businesses, Ellis said, adding that Chinese investors have expressed interest in constructing an airport in La Unión, which would further bolster the zone as a multimodal hub.    https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/project-el-salvador-shows-how-china-exerting-growing-power-america-n1278464 |

Quote HistoryQuoted: They will regret getting in bed with the dirty dog-eating garbage people. If you mean because doing business with America has been such a great success for a minority in those countries then I agree. It allows corruption to flourish and their poor even get welfare by simply crossing the border. |

When the Europeans ruled most of the world they mainly had the ports, and few key cities and a understanding with the local leaders who was really running things. Sometimes the local population wouldn't even be told of the new power arrangement for decades.

The first gestures included buying 10 trucks for the water agency of San Salvador and donating 15,000 laptops to public schools. Ana Guadalupe, a 56-year-old resident of the Santa Fe district in San Salvador, said water service had been sporadic and unreliable before the new trucks began deliveries Tuesdays and Saturdays. “There were many places where there was no water,” she said on a recent afternoon as workers from the water agency used a large hose on a truck emblazoned with the Chinese flag to deliver water. “Without water we can’t live.” Across town, Sara Cruz, a computer teacher at Francisco Morazan school, called the new Lenovo laptops her students had received transformational. “In the past, things that were Chinese were looked down on, as being of bad quality,” she said. But the sleek laptops shared by the school’s 400 students have changed her mind. “Before we had to teach them theory instead of practice,” she said. |

They have resources. Agriculture, minerals, fishing and relatively clean land/water. China cannot feed itself and it does not have all the "vitamins and minerals" to produce everything. China has also turned a good portion of their nation into a toxic waste dump in the process of becoming the dominant global manufacturer of everything. Soon the sun will never set on the Chinese empire.
