U.S Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is on a visit to Australia.

She discussed China's emergence as a regional power with Australian officials in Sydney. The talks are held as prelude to security talks with Australia and Japan.

Let me quote her arrogant remarks and make my comments.
"We've said that we have concerns about the Chinese military buildup-Rice.
Why do the US not concerned about Israel’s mighty build up that threatens the asian countries?

We've told the Chinese that they need to be transparent about what their military buildup means,"-Rice

Are the US and other major powers transparent? Anyway whoever it does it is very bad.

“I don't know, I used to follow Soviet defense statistics, and so I'm always a little bit uncertain about the statistics on these things.-Rice

Here we could smell the arrogance. The US cannot be the champion of the world people.

" But I heard that there's going to be a 14 percent increase in the Chinese defense budget. That's a lot. And China should undertake to be transparent about what that means."-Rice

I agree 14 percent increase is much.but Chinese and the US , UK and others must not increase the defense spending.
