China is a democracy by Lincoln's
definition, says former Singaporean FM George Yeo. "My view of democracy
goes back to the essence of democracy, to the Greek origin of what
democracy is - which is the people as master. Abraham Lincoln talked
about government of the people, by the people, for the people. By this
definition, China is a democracy," Yeo says.
In an article
published in The Economist on 17 November 2020, Kishore Mahbubani
wrote: “Paradoxically, a China-led order could turn out to be more
‘democratic’ because China does not seek to export its model, and it can
live with a diverse, multipolar world.”
"China is the world’s
leading democracy. Though this claim enrages many Westerners, regardless
of the metric employed, electively, popularly, procedurally,
operationally, substantively, financially, and technologically, China is
a thriving democracy and America is not." Godfree Roberts, October 14,

PS. America is a fake democracy, rule by 1%, from the 1% , for the 1%. Internationally it is an Empire that ruled the world by force. No one is allowed to choose the political system or leadership without the approval of the Americans. The countries of the world have no choice but oppression under the evil American Empire. What democracy are they talking about?
