There is this convenient formula being pushed around as the conventional wisdom of pro American or western countries. Make money from China, trade with China and be rich, but depend on America for security. Any problem with this formula? The assumptions include a China that not only cannot provide security for these countries, but a China that is hostile and even a threat to their security. And only the American terrorists can provide the security they need from an aggressive and warmongering China that is going to attack and conquer them. Any problems with these assumptions?
The Americans and the West were the colonial and imperial powers that conquered and colonised the world, including colonising China and destroying the old China. Practically every country in the world was conquered, colonised or ruled in some degrees by the Americans and the West. China was destroyed, a victim of colonialism and imperialism, and has never conquered or colonised any country. But the Americans and the West have oppressed China for centuries and painted China as the evil aggressive country that wants to conquer the world. Really? Where are the evidence of a conquering and colonising China? Because the white men said so. And this is good enough for the brain dead and unthinking.
The truth all around the world, it is the West and the Americans that were conquering, colonising and still starting wars everywhere to conquer and rule the world...NOT China. China as an aggressive warmongering country is a hoax, a red herring, a scarecrow to dupe and con the gullible silly leaders of pro western and pro American countries, including many brain dead and unthinking leaders of the third world. The American terrorists are the one to attack countries, the real threat, not China. Are the Americans bombing and attacking Iran? No, no, they are there to protect freedom of navigation, to keep the Strait of Hormuz open. What bullshit about depending on the American terrorists for security against a hostile China?
When countries just let things be, drop the silly jingoism of depending on American terrorists to protect them from China, nothing will happen to them. China is not going to attack and invade them. Look at all the small countries around China, did they fear China or living happily with China, peaceful coexistence? Those few countries that have problems with China were the real troublemakers, provoking and agitating China, even attacking China, bullying China, not China bullying them.
There is no need to believe in the silly American and western myth of a hostile China, to be frightened of China. All the aggression and wars around the world were started by the warmongering American terrorists, NOT China. Every country in the world needs to be protected from the aggressive and expansionist evil American Empire.
On the other hand, countries can choose not to trade with China and nothing will happen to them. Why don't they do so? Eventually China will just trade only with friendly countries, not fake white countries in the Asia and Pacific region that still stick to the sicko jingo, depend on China for trade and prosperity, but depend on America for security, meaning treating China as enemy, like the American terrorists. This silly formula will not last long. China is going to pull the rug under the feet of the silly leaders of countries that preached on this formula. They think China is stupid and have no option but to make them rich and be demonised by these silly leaders. A few Mickey Mouse countries in Europe already facing the music from China. Australia will be next. New Zealand already feeling the heat.
China is still very kind and patient with some silly Asean countries. But the window is closing. The American terrorists have been forcing them to take sides against China. China has no need to force them to take sides against the American terrorists. China will slowly reduce trade with them, decouple with them. If China can decouple with America, it is no issue to decouple with Mickey Mouse states.

I think you can do away with relation with small country but not big country. You can trade with big country but not necessary need them to provide security. If you can maintain good relationship with your neighbour, why is there a need to invited big foreign power to come in to create tension unnecessarily. As a leader of a small country, they need to stop thinking that everyone is trying to attack them. Just concentrate on taking care of your own citizen and being a good neighbour.
Mickey Mouse cannot think and do not think. They believe everything their American master told them.
When China was still poor and could be kicked around, the West, particularly the USA took advantage of its low wages environment to outsource manufacturing to China. It was killing two birds with one stone. Firstly, the USA wanted to export its pollution and environmental issues to China and let China handle the global demonization, while it enjoys cheaper products just printing toilet papers in exchange. Secondly, the big USA manufacturers saw the huge potential of the Chinese consumer market that gave the USA companies opportunities to make tons of money manufacturing and paying low wages and selling their products worldwide. China was the goose that laid the golden eggs for the USA and the West, but greed made them killed it.
The USA only saw and hyped up the huge trade deficits that the country suffered against China, tallying what the USA bought from China and what China bought from the USA, ignoring the hundreds of billions their manufacturers made from their manufacturing base in China and selling their products worldwide and also in China. How much did the Chinese workers made for each iPhone manufactured in China and how much did Apple made selling that same iPhone worldwide? The Chinese workers made pittance while Apple reaped all the benefits. I am just talking about Apple in China alone.
We have now also seen the branded goods made cheaply in China, with the Chinese manufacturers unravelling the scam and all the money made by those top brands selling the Chinese made products at exorbitant profits, just by sticking a label on the product. Now the Chinese are no longer going to play the game, preferring to continue to make the same product to sell to the Global South countries. After all they are still making the same profit margin. The days of ripping off Chinese manufacturing are over and big brands are suffering. How bad it is, I am not sure. Of course, they can always find alternative sources to exploit, but quality and costs cannot be taken for granted.
How can the Chinese bear the insult by one drag queen's outburst that Chinese 'peasants' made cheap goods for the USA consumers to buy and then using the US$ that they are paid in to buy USA treasury bonds. That insult had repercussions, with China now selling less and less to the USA, while no longer having the excess US$ to buy USA treasury bonds. I think this is what the drag queen did not foresee nor wanted, but China is delivering its answer to her (him actually) on a platter.
