Thats not true, they will rellocate somewhere else. As soon as MNE's saw the opportunity for cheap labour, they went to China overnight. They can just as easily move out over night as well. Lets also be honest, its the west buying chinese goods, not the chinese buying western goods, who's dependant on who now?

@stealthpakfa lol your realize that AMERICA is a country of ALL kinds of people, AFRICAN, ASIAN, MIDDLE EASTERN, HISPANIC AND EUROPEAN. Those people are ALL American. Quit being an IGNORANT person. Also don't forget about American ALLIES, like The Republic of China, Japan, and South Korea. They don't want China to take over and The Republic of China and South Korea BOTH have a strong military. Just keep that in mind

Yes, China is going into deep area of economic reforms and will meet a lot of problems. All our Chinese we should work hard together to solve these problems. Actually, these are common problems that meet each nation in development, whether US, Japan or UK. It still needs another 30 years to resolve before making China a really developped country

the western jealousy towards china is amazing. i laugh at it.

the west are scared like dogs.

china will rise and eventually rule over the white population. then the white people can be mere slaves. until that time arises, let the white people have their fun.

[tacotony24]

just don't take the BBC seriously

[darkford31]

I wish those conversations to run in korea.

Korea is the same.

High economic growth in short term with the family oriented tradition(yes, top down), Korea is now suffering the gap between the reality and ambition.

Culture is the major key which can solve these problems.

[benzlzhang]

talking to the war, great presentation

[frederywang]

china is doing best in the all developing world

[bilja799]

[AlbertEEEEE]
