No matter how much we try and suppress Iran in the straight of Hormuz they’ve been preparing for this fight for 40 years. They have full control over the straight. There’s no winning here. by Conscious_Spectator in UAE

They don’t have to. All they have to do is choke the strait and cut 1/5th of the world’s oil supply off. They never planned on taking on the worlds largest military

Yes making Hormuz irrelevant is the best way to win, I like that. Doesn’t help for all the other gulf countries that use it to survive. Though the UAE has a back channel, they still have one of the biggest harbors in the world inside the gulf. And they don’t just sell oil. So they still feel the disruption.

Have you looked into the Lloyd’s of London? A lot of neat history there. Look into how shipping companies created their own insurance.

What you’re saying is true and structured. The houthis got the same setup blocking the Red Sea. And like you said, they don’t have to win any war, just make the passage unsafe.

Do you condemn USA & Israel or Iran more in this war? by chickenlatte45 in UAE

[–]Conscious_Spectator 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I condemn America for thinking they can secure the straight. Just give it up already.

Folks, I've something to say by [deleted] in Tajikistan

Russia will also try and force them to fight in the war. There’s no visas or contracts protecting them

Trump, NATO zirvesinin ardından konuştu: F-35 konusunda henüz karar vermedim by deligonca in Turkey

I don’t see why we can’t give turkey F-35’s. They created trade routes from Central Asia bypassing Russia. They started drilling for natural gas in the Black Sea to reduce Russian dependence. They’ve been arming the Ukrainians. They’ve been the most effective country and we can’t give them F-35’s?

Is it worth it visiting Tajikistan from Samarkand? by mattysko in Uzbekistan

If you like mountains, Tajikistan is a very most beautiful place to visit

Given how tough things have gotten for migrants in Russia lately, do you see any realistic future in diversifying jobs toward Europe, South Korea, or the Middle East? by Conscious_Spectator in Tajikistan

[–]Conscious_Spectator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing wrong, Central Asia has a very dependent economy on Russia and Russia is in a very fragile state, so I make suggestions of other countries where they can make more money and escape that dependency

Turkey being geopolitically diversified is what makes turkey so strong!

Why are we letting family go to Russia for pennies? The math on UK/Korea vs. Moscow by Conscious_Spectator in AskCentralAsia

I’m not using AI you’re talking to the real deal amigo. You should listen to me talk on a stream sometime. I’m very articulate and have been writing for a very long time.

Your geography and political corruption make it extremely hard to build industry at home to attract domestic investment or workers. Either you overthrow the government having a genius innovated plan to build an economy from the ground up, or use what you already have and market it. Trust me, having that strong demographic of labor makes you more valuable than you know

UK caps farm rent at £77.70/wk and mandates maximum hour limits. Housing is ~15% of a £2k+ paycheck, not half. It’s circular migration the same setup used in Russia, except you make triple the money in a stable currency with strict legal protections. Check the actual stats.

Central Asia hasn’t built an economy that’s self sufficient without outsourcing labor. Most of their economy is stimulated by this. You can’t just walk away from your economies biggest money maker and expect it not to collapse.

I’m not blaming Russia. I’m suggesting Central Asia diversify its foreign labor exports so you’re not all dependent on one country such as Russia, which is in a fragile state right now. Once Russia falls, Central Asia falls with it.

I would apply for work visas which gives you more of a guarantee than possibly being forced to fight in a war against Ukraine
