Hainan island: Known as 'China's Hawaii,' the vacation hotspot is also a strategic military base

It’s known as the “Hawaii of China,” a tropical island paradise where the Chinese middle class enjoys sandy beaches, five-star resorts, and duty-free luxury shopping.

It’s also China’s largest free-trade port and host of the Boao Forum, an annual meeting of political and business leaders dubbed “Asia’s Davos.”

But Hainan, China’s southernmost province, is also a strategically important island. And just like Hawaii, it is also home to key military bases.

As American officials reveal more information about the Chinese balloon shot down on February 4 after floating across the US airspace, Hainan, an island thousands of miles away from America, has been brought into focus.

Yeah, it’s maneuverable and under control, then it’s at the mercy of the winds. It’s capable of surveillance but we stopped it from sending data...what a load of BS! Must be that idiot Milley calling the shots.

I thought these were UFOs from an alien civilization. This is what the Pentagon reported three days ago.

> I don’t believe a damn thing these people say.

i.e. it was all just an overblown accident. Nothing to see here, everybody just go about their day.

BTW, aliens! Squirrel!
