Too lazy to scroll down an inch or two to see the comments questioning the tech just because it's China or making unrelated anti-China comments?

China Plans ‘Silver Trains’ to Encourage Aging Population to Travel (www.bloomberg.com)
 

On Tuesday, the Culture and Tourism and Commerce ministries, along with China State Railway Group Co., issued a guideline action plan to launch trains specifically designed for retiree tourists. A nationwide “silver tourist train” network featuring “diversified tourist routes, a wide range of tourism themes and comprehensive services” will be built by 2027, the document said.

China last year unveiled a plan for a silver economy estimated to be worth 30 trillion yuan ($4.1 trillion) in the next decade, catering to a rapidly-aging population needing tailored services from meal delivery to nursing homes and entertainment options.

This would be an massive undertaking. I'd expect it to take decades before it starts getting any results.

Gaddafi's is just sad. Such a terrible decision to give up their nuclear deterrence and trust western governments.

Nukes are why the DPRK hasn't been invaded again, and why it hasn't ended up Libya is now.

The region doesn't rely on the US, the post-2014 fascist government that doesn't care about the wishes of eastern Ukrainians does.

There wasn't a problem here until the US-backed coup in 2014 and subsequent killing of eastern Ukrainians and Crimeans (if you're wondering why Crimeans overwhelmingly support Russia) by the coup gov for resisting, which also doesn't respect the Minsk agreements to stay neutral.
