From January to November 2023, the Chinese shipbuilding industry’s output climbed 12.3 percent year-on-year to 38.09 million deadweight tons, accounting for more than half of the world’s total, according to China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
Chinese shipbuilders also commanded global orders with 134.09 million deadweight tons, or 53.4 percent of the world’s market share, over the same period, a 29.4 percent year-on-year increase, according to the official statistics.
They produce half of all the ships on the planet. Then it stands to reason that half of all the shipbuilding accidents would also happen there (more or less).
Just like with the failed test launch of the Russian missile. Western media was gloating. But anyone whose brain hasn’t atrophied yet would think “it’s a test launch, that’s why they do test launches.”
Incidentally I was just listening to an interview with Jacques Baud, who is a Swiss intelligence analyst, and he made this exact point. He said that the west if fighting a completely different war in Ukraine from Russia. The only thing the west cares about is the narrative, and the propaganda is completely divorced from reality as a result. Meanwhile, in Russia the propaganda exists in support of reality not as an alternative for it. They might embellish things, and frame them in a way favorable to Russia, but on the whole it matches what’s actually happening. And now we’re hitting a point where western propaganda diverged so far it’s becoming impossible to maintain as the front is visibly collapsing.
Accidents happen.

Speaking of media, and going back to China, when it was first reported the headlines made it sound as if a Chinese nuclear submarine sunk. Usual implication being that it sunk out at sea. e.g. China’s Newest Nuclear Submarine Sank, Setting Back Its Military Modernization
