China uses economic power to help the rest of the world

If China behaves like a warmonger and acts like USA, you can expect the USA will call out its doggies to attack China like hyenas in a frenzy. What China does around its doorstep has already been capitalized by the USA to raise tensions against Taiwan and Philippines directly, and indirectly against Vietnam and Australia.

China already told the world it uses soft power, going against the USA hard power of starting wars. China leverages on helping developments instead of destruction, giving loans to poor countries not for buying weapons but developments, building the BRI to enhance connectivity, constructing dams, ports and airports, building both high speed and normal railways for other countries This has not escaped the eyes of countries sitting on the fence and winning them over rather than using force and veiled threats to subdue them.

Great that the Africans have seen the light of day after centuries of stagnation under the yolk of colonial rule and exploitation. The South Americans are now also waking up and realizing who is actually buttering their bread. Even the Central Asian countries are jumping on the Chinese /Russian wagon, all attending the recent Victory Day parade in Moscow together with China. Here in ASEAN, the situation is not so clear cut, but many among ASEAN are looking favorably at China save for one or two black sheep. Hard to fathom what the Arabs and Muslims are aiming for at this point of time, with divided loyalties at the crossroads, trying to straddle two boats at the same time, like India.
