China today cannot afford to take chances with reliance
on the USA, the West, even Japan or South Korea. The hard lessons for
China had been learnt. Once bitten twice shy.
China must try to
be self reliant as much as possible. In my humble opinion, if the West
wants to do business with China by all means. If the West wants to
de-couple or de-link so be it. China cannot do much about that.
All
that talk about China collapsing, or its export sector suffering so
badly is not going to push China under, with just rhetorics alone. China
is attempting to promote an economy based largely, though not possibly
totally, on domestic demand. With a population of 1.4 billion, this is a
feasible option though there are pros and cons and prices to pay.
Chinese
nationals are reported to be travelling less overseas post COVID, and
this would be a chance for the Chinese Government to promote domestic
travel to provide a boost for China's economy if they were to travel
inside China itself, spending their money at home. China is such a vast
country for travellers, full of interesting places to visit, that even
foreigners are astounded. Moreover, with all the high speed rail links
transversing all over the country, travelling is so easy, fast and
comfortable.
China can still do relatively well in trade with
Russia, Iran, ASEAN and the BRICS member countries, even if the USA and
the Anglo Saxon White clique were to close ranks to sabotage and
strangle China's export foray. Sure, there will be detrimental issues,
but nothing that China cannot handle with five thousand years of history
behind its existence in coping with all kinds of setbacks and
disasters. In the process, China has indeed grown stronger.

You cannot take chances dealing with Satan, right? Satan will show no mercy, and its intent is only to destroy or kill you by any means.
ReplyDeleteYou cannot persuade Satan to turn around and do good, instead you may be even be persuaded by Satan to sell him your soul to commit evil for him, as many countries have done so.
