Global Times warns Hong Kong could become the next 'Ukraine or Thailand'

Currently Thailand is in China's 'sphere of influence.' ....along with Laos, Cambodia. Vietnam, Burma and Malaysia are a bit more independent. With Chinese-Thais running most businesses in Thailand, and most Thai politicians being Chinese-Thai, it doesn't take a rubricks cube genius to picture China stretching its tentacles to absorb Thailand. Already, heavy duty highways and speedo trains are being planned and/or built to connect Bangkok with China. Yesterday; Autonomous Region of Tibet. Today: Hong Kong. Tomorrow: Autonomous Region of Thailand. Get ready folks, the groundwork is already being laid.

While I recognize the threat of China in the region (and beyond), your logic regarding Thai-Chinese is perplexing. I know quite a few of these "Thai-Chinese" that you refer to and none have any connections or loyalty to China whatsoever. Every single one considers themselves Thai, first and foremost. Just like German-Americans or Irish-Americans in the US who consider themselves Americans first and foremost. But just like any other businessman of any nationality, they would certainly do business with the Chinese. Doesn't mean they want to become a part of China. Heck, even the true Chinese in HK, Taiwan, and Singapore don't want to become a part of China.
