China’s Agony of Defeat

ok, i see it, you're always being hurt, while you bring hurt to the other peoples in the wolrd "consistently". isn't it? and i hope you can persuade your fellows to resist the Chinese products and stop selling yours to us. so we can make it clear what's going on and what the remedy is, shall we come back to the right path? it's not repeat the routine, as you would understand the situation rationally.

you don't understand a really Chinese's mind,also you don't clued-up a "young Chinese".
so you don't know what's our true opinion towards the Party,the country, the 2008 Olympic Games,Dalai Lama,BBC%CNN etc..
not all of our opinion is positive,include to the party and the Olympic,we also have our own thoughts
most US.

It is rare for myself, a well-educated and more worldy Chinese to find someone from west who is able to give a clear picture of China and the Chinese people. Chinese people are more open to reasonable commenrts or viewpoints instead of fabricated or exaggerated news rep[orts and politian-driven actions. I shall take off my hat to the author. John Cheng

You just illustrated this statement: IGNORANCE CAN CAUSE A COUNTRY'S DOWNFALL
:

In our modern world, cooperation of nations is the key to prosperity. United we stand. For example, a dollar invested in North America might produce 10 units of product; but could produce 25 with same quality in countries with low labour cost. With progressive transportation and tariff, that same unit could be brought back with cheaper price. Nations with cheaper labour cost can specialize in manufacturing because it benefits both types of nations. Countries with higher labour cost can prosper by production of manufacturing machines; or investing in energy and resources (needed for manufacturing). For instance, rich countries' governments can build energy and resources based enterprises to employ its people and then sell them to private sector. Those enterprises will feed manufacturing-based industries like in China. Or they can provide incentives and tax-break for that sector. IT COULD BE A WIN-WIN SITUATION FOR ALL. ONE COUNTRY RISING DOES NOT NECCESSARILY MEAN ANOTHER COUNTRY'S DOWNFALL. IGNORANCE CAN CAUSE A COUNTRY'S DOWNFALL

In the article " China's Superpower Economy " by John J. Tkacik, Jr. (Dec.28/2007) (www.heritage.org), the author stated the following objective facts:
" China's new status is not surprising. China has been the world's leading producer of steel, copper, aluminum, cement, and coal for several years. As a consumer, China surpassed Japan as the globe's second largest importer of petroleum in 2005. In 2006, China surpassed Japan as the world's No. 2 auto market, with total sales of 7.2 million vehicles and production of 7.3 million. In 2007, China also became the world's top producer of merchant ships...... In 2006, America's manufacturing sector produced about $2.7 trillion in goods. China's manufacturing sector produced about 8.74 trillion yuan in goods, or about $1.124 trillion at the prevailing exchange rate of 7.77 yuan to the U.S. dollar. But the real value of China's output is more than twice the exchange-rate value, according to price studies done by the World Bank for the year 2005..... Applying the Purchase Power Parity factor of 2.38 (by World Bank), China's $1.124 trillion worth of manufacturing output would be worth $2.717 trillion on the U.S. market???slightly higher than America's $2.7 trillion in manufacturing output."
With that massive and rapid increase in output, mistakes can easily be made. No country can be exempt from production defects. The reason the world knows so much about China's manufacturing defects or its "dangerous products" is simply because the world has become dependent on Chinese low-cost products.
But that also is set to rapid improvements. According to www.edn.com (Is China the next R&D superpower? ): " Fewer Americans are earning doctoral degrees in science and engineering, 25,509 in 2001 (the last year for which comparative figures are available), versus 27,243 in 1996. And American governmental spending on R&D in the physical sciences, math and engineering has slipped from 0.25 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP) in 1970 to 0.16 percent in 2003, according to the Alliance for Science & Technology Research in America (ASTRA). Meanwhile, China is steaming in the opposite direction. China nearly doubled its output of science and engineering Ph.D.s between 1996 and 2001, to 8,153. And in the six years between 1997 and 2002, national and local governmental spending on research in China doubled, to approximately $9.9 billion. " PROGRESS IS THE HALLMARK OF PRIDE, NOT HUMILIATION

In its current history of humiliation, China has a great deal to be humiliated about as it fobs inferior, adulterated, and dangerous products onto the world market.

This article is a proof that the spectacular ascent of China on the world stage does gather deep-rooted fear and alienation in the wetern mindset. China was a superpower for thousands of year and is set on a path to reclaim its title. China achieved economically in two decades what the rest of the world did in two centuries. If that is called inferior, what else humility can be called?

China has a very long and tultumous history of domestic in nature. Despite having the power and other advances throughout history It has never imposed its ideas and beliefs on other nations, instead Britain being just small islands and so far away bullied the Chinese and now the US is doing the same. The Chinese are very civilised compared to the west. They don't bother others.

Despite the current progress and achievements, the majority of the citizens are still poor and the gap between the have and the have not is getting bigger and bigger.Now being a communist nation, the Chinese leaders have always resort to pomp and peagantry to show to its citizens their achievements, all seemingly on massive scales. The olympics is not entirely for show to the world but rather more of a long awaited show for its citizens.

We have to remember that altho Japan's invasion is one of the most humiliating chapter in China's history, the plans by Western powers to subdivide China into various territories under Western rule (Britain, U.S, Germany, Russia, France etc) during its time of great weakness, was a very deep insult and made them wary of western powers.
To claim that the Pro-China comments that flooded CNN are young educated local Chinese who have been brainwashed by propaganda is quite untrue. Propaganda may still exist in subtle forms in schools in China, but it???s not the sort of propaganda that the author seems to imply which is cold war type propaganda, it???s more like history written in favor of their own country. And this is quite normal and done by every country in the world, especially Western powers where the quote "History is written by the Victors" originated. Also a lot of the Pro-China in Los Angeles were Western-educated Chinese who is born and educated in the U.S and have not even stepped into China. A lot don???t even speak mandarin.
It???s not only the timing of the Tibet demonstration that agitated the Chinese in every parts of the world but the way some western media, particularly CNN, handled it. People expected professionalism and objective reporting from media like CNN. But when u watch how Cnn and other western governments reported the Tibetan riot, you get the feeling that they are supporting and encouraging the riots, which should not be the case. China sent troops because rioters started to kill innocent ppl, burn temples and loot shops. If Western media/governments felt something wrong wid the way it was handled then it???s their right to criticize. But to condemn gov't forces trying to stop the rampage while blatantly ignoring the brutal acts of the rioters reeks full of hypocrisy. They should also condemn the rioters for what they have done for a fairer reporting.
Concerning Human Rights which also seemed to have interestingly popped up more often now that the Olympics is near. Western gov???t has to accept and respect other cultures and norms. It is a different set of ppl, value and history which should be respected and vice versa. They can't and should not force their ideas and belief to another person let alone a country and region. Communication and relationship is a better way. Cheerdancer in mini skirt and showing lots of skin may be the norm here in the west. But in countries like Saudi Arabia it can be blasphemous and insulting.
To the Chinese, be proud of what your country have achieved in the last 20-30 years. Remember that in life there will always be some who will try to put you down. But just like in sports keep your heads up and try to live up your dreams. Try to keep an open mind as well despite all these adversaries. Good Luck in the Beijing Olympics. Hope you have a very successful hosting of the games and kudos to the preparations that your country has made for the games. China certainly raised th
