Regarding the question on China's neutral position on Ukraine, I would like to remind the audience that China is not the one and only country taking that position. Indeed around 75% of the population on earth is taking that similar position.
I find it very interesting Because What The American doing is just following What Napoleon n hitler was doing The expansion of its power to the east The result is the same War I don't think it is very difficult to understand❤
Europe should sort out it's own problems and kick out the Americans who is casuing the problems - lol - who cares about Ukraine - those in power and have vested interest in Ukraines land - bread basket and energy goodies - lol
Not everybody in the CPC can be brilliant. Intelligent? Yes. Capable? Yes. But to rise to the top in Chinese politics, you must demonstrate a record of achievement. You must prove yourself. That's how the cream rises to the top.
It u consider the odds of a brilliant person rising, the process of selection would allow not only the cream but also china’s share of brilliant minds. And a few hundred of them would be easy peacy
An analysis of China done with a perspective that China is bad for the West will always be distorted. In reality, China and US can rise together. It's not a zero sum game.
China is doing what works for them. US should be doing what works for them as well. China don't build these to make a profit as the sole reason....I believe they do it for the benefit of the people and country. Although in America, profit would be the main reason but for China, profit is not the main reason.
I agree. All governments should build infrastructures for the benefit/convenience of their citizens. After all, that is one purpose of collecting taxes/revenue. If everything has to be weighed and based on profit, nothing will get done. That is why US has zero HSR.
@@BestluckYan Yes indeed. And it's crazy how the West exploits their own people and using them for their political gain. It's so sickening how the people are used for all these agendas such as gun control, vaccines, division, etc. America is a very dangerous place.
Seeing Western Media thought I would be visiting a dystopian place upon visiiting Guangzhou in 2019. Found people not seem repressed, no rationing, people had wide selection in cuisine, goods, clothing including western brands. Modern infrastructure, public share bikes, lots of EVs, online delivery & uber equivalents. I could freely access MSN, Yahoo & Live & everybody could get a VPN if they wanted to for Google, Netflix (met few expats live there now, all have VPNs & feel safe, esp. the women going out at night ). No one stopped me from filming which thought would happen. Communist seem to be in name only. It's more like Singapore, the one party state with capitalism for most part; I realized the Western Media exaggerating for a certain narrative.
Thank you Sir for mentioning my country, Singapore in a "favourable" light. In Singapore, we voted for the People's Action Party as the ruling party because it delivered and continues to deliver the goods. Currently, we do have an Opposition in Parliament with a distinguished Leader of the Opposition. We are evolving our brand of democracy with strong emphasis on meritocracy. We are 3/4 Chinese for our demographic, so we share the same Confucianist heritage with China. Please visit us if you have not already done so. We are tourist-friendly country. Unless you intend to carry drug into our country, rest assured you will leave our country alive, with happy memories. And hopefully back for a second visit. God bless.
China is not Singapore. China still has talents and expertise in various fields and professions. Political parties in China have a system of one-party governance, multi-party participation in politics and people's democratic consultation, including the National People's Congress, the Political Consultative Conference and the Party Congress. In addition, in China, banks, finance, military industry, oil, gas, energy, food, water, power grid fees, communications, high-speed rail, aircraft, buses, buses, railways, roads, infrastructure, public health facilities and key livelihood facilities and supplies are state-owned enterprises. Most of the medical and pharmaceutical industries and education industries are market economies, but when there are problems in the market economy, there will be state regulation.
You are certainly ain't like minded and observing the Rule Based Order in telling the truth of what are happening or becoming of modern China nowadays. Dun worry your Google account won't be blocked or censored bcoz it will be sunk in the ocean of free media, reports, propagandas from the freest, reputable, giant and "truely" free global media corporations and regional affiliates.
Thanks for uploading this video. It's a quite transparent explanation of China's perspective and vision. At the end of her lecture, the problems China's facing are really severe. And that's why the current government is so eager to transform the country's industry from medium level manufacturing to a highly sophisticated one, and replace manual labors by robots to accelerate productivity. Certainly it will takes a long time to solve those problems, but they've been working on it for years, and to those youth who're graduating from colleges, the best way to survive is to invest in yourselves and be patient for new opportunities coming up. After all, China is still the prospect of booming economic entity.
All economies face challenges, including China's and USA's. I'd say the USA has greater challenges and is more likely to collapse from them. China has been overcoming challenges for over 3,500 years. China overcame many challenges since opening up in 1979. _Never bet against China._
When did China say it had medium level manufacturing? China is the only country with all the industrial categories recognized by the United Nations, including low, middle, high, upper, middle and lower. And China says that economic transformation is only to facilitate the whole system of high-end production. Independence, self-reliance. China's manufacturing value added is higher than the G7 combined. China's cutting-edge technology and industry can be a lot, but the large population needs the industry to continue to high-end advanced share.
@@horridohobbies Her views are still ideological, she does not say that the United States paid reparations to the Chinese territorial concessions and the opium trade and controlled the financial banks in China, and she also talks about the Korean War, the Vietnam War and the first 30 years of the new China agriculture, industry, economy, politics, military science and technology laws and regulations, aerospace technology, two bombs and one star, land reform, industrial planning reform, etc. The progress of socialist reform laid a solid foundation for entering the WTO, especially after the reform and opening up. Before the Cold War between China and the Soviet Union, China was open to the Soviet Union, the second world and the third world, while the United States blocked and isolated China. After the Sino-Soviet conflict, the two camps blocked and isolated China together, but China always tried to break through the blockade and isolation and still relied on foreign ports to exchange and trade. Then there was the economic crisis of the United States in the 1970s and the Soviet Union's attack on the United States, the United States needed China's help in the perfect retreat from the Vietnam War, and you carried out a counterattack or war against Vietnam against the countries surrounding the Soviet Union's support for Vietnam and the Sino-Vietnamese border expansion, and the United States allied with China against the Soviet Union, and the United States needed China's market and human resources to solve its economic problems, After the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States? Open to America.
@@雅君墨客-i9z She also said that China did not come out well from the Korean war which is in the contrary. The war brought more than 70 years of peace for China. Because of the war, USA dare not challenge China militarily. When China drew the line in the Vietname war, US dare not put any boots into North Vietnam.
Its all the American unfounded self created fear. The rising China is good for the world, America included. This make more countries wanted to emulate China rise, in the process, raise the standard to another level
You are looking at it with a view of what a common person would think; but the fear isn't unfounded because any independent country is a direct threat to the US led imperialism. Hence it continues to create such fear for the sheep through state of art propaganda, so they will be willing to fight the war against China on behalf of the imperialist warmongers in the name of patriotism, "freedom," "democracy," and/or all the Orwellian double talk propaganda terms. The real problem is the average Joe doesn't understand western imperialism has never went away but evolved to what we have today.
1. U.S. should not fear China's rise. 2. U.S. has abundance of good talents and thus they can strive for the rapid advancement of their nation. These efforts will not let China to surpass U.S. 3. China's rise is its determination to stop foreign bully and invasion which lasted for many years if not century. The strong self defense is absolutely necessary because this is the way to foster world order and to suppress hegemony. 4. Looking back the Korean War and Vietnam War , the world should be enlightened by the cruel fact that those countries opt for non-democracy political system may be destroyed by hegemony and thus they must build up their military strength.to deter foreign invasion.
"U.S. has abundance of good talents and thus they can strive for the rapid advancement of their nation. These efforts will not let China to surpass U.S." In 2016, China graduated 4.7 million STEM graduates. The USA graduated 600,000. China will be the technological leader very soon, if not already. According to ASPI, China leads in 37 out of 44 technological fields.
The problem with the US is not talent because most talented people from the rest of the world are staying back in the US for the $$$ but the US for years has wasted all its trillions $$$$ in wars, regime changes, sanctions, containments, cold wars, trade wars, etc. instead of looking after, support & respect these talented foreigners Americans
@@iechuanlee9326 Many people say " U.S. is the world trouble maker ". What you mentioned actually is " U.S. creates many problems / troubles ". Thank you very much for telling the unethical facts to all viewers of this video.
I would like our audience friends to better understand China. The architect of Open Door Policy was XP Deng. The first country that he visited was Japan. He was questioned then by the media how he is going to handle the bad experienced with the Japanese invasion. He said " I am here to explore cooperation with your country and contain our differences". That's Chinese mentality. Another leader that my friends should know is Xi. Xi's father was one of the Chinese leaders that helped Mao. Unfortunately he said something wrong which upset Mao. Xi was then a kid, he was sent to the village side to work, no schooling whatsoever. Xi experienced the poorest side of China. He is hard working, when he has opportunity he studied. He is determined to pull his people our of poverty throughout his career. And it is this determination which enabled him to move gradually into today's position. Unlike democratic countries, no one in the CCP could move to the top without successful contributions to the country. In the last 40 years CCP is a government that has adopted numerous changes. CCP invited experts from all over the world and begged to learn from them. The most imortant lesson to CCP was the disintegration of the Soviet Union - corruption could bring the party down. Since then, great effort has been spent by Xi to curb corruption. This is by far not an easy task. There are still coruption in China but much more contained then before. Xi has to grip sufficient power in the CCP in order to run the country and in particular curb corruption. China with 1.4 billion mouths to feed. It could only pray for peace and cooperation. China is spreading its multipolar culture and that's where the earth is heading. Should US failed to adjust themself to accept this culture and work together with rest of the world, we are heading a big disaster.
Maybe you should also note that Lee KY of Singapore must have had inspired him when he visited the tiny island, witnessing how with determination the barren island could achieve so much!
The CCP is not all wonderful and happy and ready to serve China. The way people advance in China (in the CCP that is) is to become "Yes Men" and not rock the boat by disagreeing with higher-ups. Or, more typically, to resort to sycophancy, just as Mao did in the early years. This was well documented in Jung Chang and Jon Holliday's book on "Mao." This causes excessive inbreeding, since "out of the box" thinking is automatically labelled as "incorrect." In fact, "out of the box" thinking is essentially not allowed in the CCP. People either think "correctly" or not, and ONLY those who think "correctly" are allowed to advance. Now, Xi Jinping has steadily cut the number of "Yes Men" advisors that he consults with, and how likely do you think these Yes Men are to tell Xi he is wrong about something? You'd have to be absolutely crazy to do that, if not suicidal. This leads to an even GREATER degree of inbred thinking, and this is directly correlated with Xi's accumulation of greater and greater levels of power. What I am saying is that the CCP and its history demonstrates that Lord Acton was absolutely right: "Power corrupts, and absolute power tends to corrupt absolutely." The obvious antidote to absolute power is checks and balances, but in China, these hardly exist, and this is a by product of the design of the Yes Man mentality in government. This is just one reason why I am not confident in China's ability to solve its ever-increasing problems that are becoming crippling. The answer is NOT to make one man supremely powerful, even if you think he IS a corruption fighter. In Xi's case, this comes down to the fact that Xi does indeed fight corruption---in his political enemies. This not only presents a deceptive picture, but actually makes his own corruption---which is inevitable; see Lord Acton's quote---all the more alive and well and corrosive. The antidote to fighting corruption is to give the corruption fighter more and more power. Then just watch while he slowly unravels, becomes corrupt himself, become drunk with his power, listens to fewer and fewer people, and destroys himself, his party, and his country. And Xi is just the latest in a line of Chinese leaders who have done just that, starting with Mao Zedong. I'm not saying that Mao was a bad man. That's not my point. What I AM saying is that one sure-fire way to corrupt even the most moral, just man is to give him unlimited power to make decisions about a country. I guarantee you will turn him into a monster, and he will be just as shocked at that as you no doubt are right now.
All countries' leaders should be sent to live and work for a few years in poor regions in their countries to experience first hand how hard life for poor people there, before they can become leaders of their countries.
No country should be afraid of any other nation which has demonstrated non-aggression stance toward its neighbors in history, no military bases across the globe, and has not started any wars in the past deades.
@@Greego-z1z you are a fool. at the end it all about economics, bad economics can do destroy many people's lives in the same way as a real physical war, the only difference is that you are not being killed by guns. us companies rely on chinese markets to make money, if china shuts us out, it will destroy many people's lives because livelihoods depend on the money made from china. so stop offending china.
Any analysis of China done with a perspective that China is bad for the West will always be distorted. In reality, China and US can rise together to help resolve common problems. It's not a zero sum game. However, this fear of losing dominance is creating havoc in the minds of Americans. As long as US rides on China's rise, US will always be ahead, financially, economically and militarily.
It's China discussion 101. It's not as simple as she is saying. It's about Money and Power. US &NATO is providing weapons to Ukraine to weaken Russia.After the war can make money to rebuild If anything left in Ukraine. US is selling weapons to Taiwan and hope to create war to weaken China. Chinese are very patriotic and for what they have gone through in recent hundred year of wars both within and foreign. People have gone through too much hardship. They are "ok" for now cause there is HOPE in a better future which they waited too long for.
no one audience in the room has a doubt about it. this means they are really not into all positive progress made by China, and the lady is wasting time
She is kind of pro China but more from an observer POV and she seems to admire China's progress. I would not say she is politically neutral as she still calls the Chinese government the CCP, a common habit among anti-china hawks. Among neutral countries, we just say the "the Chinese government " as we do with any other country. We don't use terms like the GOP or DNC to refer to the US government, it would be disrespectful.
She is not pro-China apparently, she said some facts generally ignored by western world, and also she skipped some facts when she were talking about the Tibet/Xinjiang, especially Taiwan because of her political position and she's from Taiwan. She just told the audiences how to understand the world with a Chinese perspective.
@@dannychan1342 for CCP is but by name only.... China has return to it's old way, closest to Western Nation would be the Queen Victoria Empire. "Free Enterprise under one Empire". Older Chin can be correct...
'Fear' is the reason we're where we're at right now. Fear mongering keeps U.S. citizens ok with spending all their money on hegemonic endeavours instead of developing proper technologies to further the planet and it's people. U.S. is the problem not the answer right now. Hope this changes and soon. Doubt it, though. MIC is really in charge.
Is that why Apple has become a nearly 3 trillion dollar company? Is that why of the five trillion dollar companies, four (AAPL, MSFT, AMZN, MSFT) are from the US, and 13 of the 15 companies with the biggest market capitalizations are US firms? I don't see the basis for your assertion that "US citizens are okay with spending all their money on hegemonic endeavors instead of developing proper technologies to further the planet and its people. Do you realize how many humans on this planet own an iPhone and have a Facebook account? These have revolutionized how people interact in this world!
No, not at all. China has demonstrated for centuries that they are only interested in win-win trade... At the beginning of the 15th century, they had a huge Navy, led by Admiral Zheng He, which travelled all over the World they could but NEVER threatened anyone. Today, China has ONE military naval base in Djibouti, to HELP fight pirates, while the US has more than 850... This FACT says it all.
She presented that nothing turn out right for communist China before DengXiaoPing. This is completely not true. Communist China has consistent annual economic growth of 6-8% even during cultural revolution and great leap forward. Cultural revolution isn't all bad too. It laid the industrial infrastructure and foundation that enabled the rapid take off during the Deng Era. It also changed key cultural attitudes of the people which is a key foundation of subsequent growth. Korean war also enabled China to command respect on world stage. Vietname war I and II also enabled a peaceful neighbourhood for growth.
close but it was Iran and Saudi Arabia that China brokered the peace deal. China is too intertwined in the global economy and too large a base to counter. It's best to work with China to gain wealth and prosperity during its rise. Countering it is unproductive and will only cause more suffering around the world and here in the US.
@17:40. I know I'm going to get bashed for saying this. But I'm still going to say it. The Great Firewall in China is a good idea. China actually do need this. I'm an ethnic Chinese brought up in the West and live in the West. Unlike most people, I have had access to news from BOTH Chinese media and western media sources for much of my life. And I do watch/read them very often. Believe me, if you are neutral (ie, truly neutral) in this US China rivalry, and you expose yourself to news reports from both sides, eventually you'll start to side with China. It's hard to imagine you would not. Why? ...because THIS is what I see in my ENTIRE life : _
For anyone wondering what the video was about... The author of the video put 2 sets of news reports side by side for viewers to compare. One was from the BBC, and the other from China. The incredible thing was that NOT ONLY were BOTH reports about the exact same topic, and using the exact same source. But in fact, BOTH were actually THE exact same report!! Just presented differently. Unfortunately I can't show it here. But it's probably the best video by far that shows to what EXTREME extent the western mainstream media is willing to go to paint a certain picture of the world. It also explains why overseas ethnic Chinese such as myself would eventually side with China in these debates.
You are not alone feeling this way, bro. I'm Hong Konger. And I always read or watch news from both side. Like the riots in HK back in 2019(it so call "peaceful protests" by the west). The news are so twisted by the western medias. I was like how those reports can be so different than what I saw on the ground.
@@dice138 Yes I definitely know what you mean. This whole thing is sheer madness. The world would be a much better place without the western mainstream media.
The US is not a Democracy. It is a plutocracy. It can also be seem as an elected autocracy, with a difference. Instead of a system of government by one person with absolute power, it is a group of people elected and forming one unit or party with absolute power.
Business is a competition either you cheat to be on top but eventually the honest guy will definitely overtake you. You can't cheat, lie and steal forever.
Like all nations China has difficulty but woken up to reality of this world . America unwisely sees as threat and competitive. Its fault of our comprehension it's actually improving us all. 😅
4:56 Historical error: On February 12, 1912, the Qing emperor announced the abdication of the Qing throne. So it is not 1919 that the Qing dynasty was overthrown. That is a very serious mistake for a university forum like this.
Listen again. She did not say Qing dynasty was overthrown in 1919. She was talking about the May 4 1919 incident AFTER the overthrow of Qing Dynasty. I don't think she mentioned the year of revolution. By the way, the Qing Dynasty was overthrown in 1911 and the Republic declared in 1912.
While I feel there is a lot of good background on China’s history and development, the statement about showing Chinese overseas students why “democracy is better” is quite arrogant. Something that’s better needs to be proven. I’m sorry but even as an American I don’t believe it works in the US. Much of what the US has become doesn’t reflect the idealisms of democracy. One could even argue a lot of it is authoritarian. How much of the US population actually wants to be part of the Russian Ukrainian conflict rather than putting those resources into solving the massive homeless problem.
Another comment Ann makes about China’s stance on Ukraine and Taiwan is similar, is extremely superficial. There is so much more context regarding the many years of ongoing conflict between them as commitments were not fulfilled by Ukraine, and what about NATO’s encroachment around Russia. What if this was done to the US by Russia or even better, another militarized bloc.
US democracy has not been very effective in recent decades. You say it's sometimes a mess. I'd say it's a mess most of the time... What do Chinese students observe when they come to America? Deep political division and turmoil (e.g., January 6, 2021). A crushing national debt (currently approaching $32 trillion). Crumbling national infrastructure. Unaffordable health care. Rampant homelessness. Rampant gun violence. Mass incarceration. Opioid epidemic. I could go on and on. Why does the richest nation on earth suffer from all these domestic problems? It beggars belief. The accountability lies at the feet of the US government and US democracy.
You are so right. There's a saying within Chinese especially younger people nowaday. "The more time you spend abroad(travel or study), the more patriotic you'll become."
you only fear what you don't understand. change happens, these are unprecedented times as they say and deeply concerning is also heard a lot this year.
Do not underestimate the politicians, they know China, they just do not want China to grow bigger, more impact, even now, U.S already can not achieve many things without working with China. 15/20 years ago, China plays little roles in the world.
Quite a strange title, this is not whether the US should be afraid of the rise of China. Because the US "already" fears the rise of China, and it cannot be changed. At the same time, this is the cheapest and easiest way for American politicians to gain political leverage. Moreover, driven by the unremitting efforts of the Western media, this trend cannot be changed. Please don't waste time talking about it.
This woman may not be parroting the western disinformation of Xinjiang, but she seems NOT to be in the know of the terrorism China faced by the US-backed Uighurs. She acknowledged concentration camps which is the perverted mainstream media but they are actually re-education schools to prevent more terrorism. It may not have been fair to have sent some people there but the extreme terrorism is gone. The US bombs people or countries ALL the time, while China when faced with the same problems has NEVER done that. This woman does a mediocre job of representing the astonishing accomplishments in the past few decades of China.
The concept of 2 leadership is not uncommon, when I was working for Siemens, we had a Compliance team that roughly mirrors the management to squash corruption. And we have the 4 eyes principle, there is the business team and the commercial team. I believe in some companies, there is the Union representative structure.
The Cultural Revolution erased the deepest trace in History of China - the rural grass-roots level controlled by the gentry class for thousands of years; Laying the foundation of today's Chinese social structure; The most important point is that the central government controls land ownership (land nationalization), which has led to rapid development after the reform and opening up;
Infrastructure is rarely profitable. This is true regardless of the country you live in. In Canada, where I live, roads, bridges, schools, hospitals, etc. do not make money. _They are a public good._ They have strategic national value. And so it is with HSR in China.

It is not exactly a two boss system. It is very similar to CEO and COO. The party secretary always run the operation who inturn reports to the head who have the overall leadership, decide on strategy and have the final say.
The speaker was very careful not to show her hand until towards the end of the broadcast. Essentially, she advocates that the China threat is a bogus one. We should learn to co-exist peacefully. Both countries will gain from it. I agree with her views. Her setup was excellent by explaining China’s century of humiliation. Her aim was to provide some historical context to drive home the reason why Taiwan is the reddest of all red lines for the Chinese leadership. I wished she would have been more forceful to assert that Taiwan is a province of China; virtually every nation on the planet acknowledges that. And, the US’s actions are unacceptable and illegal - selling weapons to a province of China, stoking internal conflicts and pitting one group of Chinese against another. The US has no business to stick their nose in there. She should have asked the audience this question: if the shoe was on the other foot, would it be acceptable to them?
First, why should the world number 1 fear of any one nation. Fear is not the right word. Should US wish to remain as the world number 1 power, it should work hard to improve itself in terms of economic and political strength. Today, most nations have advanced significantly. It is impossible to exercise collonial or imperial strategy over these nations. US with its strength should reach out to help the developing countries. US should understand that all developing countries is desirous to have peace. Provoking fight and war will no longer welcome by these countries.
The USA should fix its own problems in order to compete with China, not resort to Tonya Harding-style tactics. China isn't the threat to US global dominance - the USA's internal problems are.
是的，我也不理解美国政客和人民为什么要恐惧，以前绝大多数中国人都相信美国倡导的普世价值和全球化的概念，把美国当作人类文明的灯塔，学习美国多元文化价值观。但是中国的制度和美国的制度不应该是你死我活的关系啊，它是人类文明的两种组织形态，我们可以互相学习和借鉴，这不正是多元的真正体现吗？但是西方嘴上喊着尊重多元价值，行动上却要不停的打压与自己不同的制度。这种矛盾与双重标准，让中国人民不厌其烦。 Yes, I also don't understand why American politicians and people are so fearful. Most Chinese used to believe in the universal values and globalization promoted by the United States, and regarded the United States as a beacon of human civilization, learning from its multicultural values. However, the Chinese system and the American system should not be in a life-and-death relationship. They are two different forms of human civilization and we can learn from and draw on each other's strengths. Isn't this the true embodiment of diversity? But while Westerners chant respect for diverse values, they incessantly suppress systems that differ from theirs. This contradiction and double standard is really irritating to the Chinese people.
China has some social security. All people working have to take out a social insurance. It covers a significant part of the persons medical expenses, not all, but a fair percentage. Should any one wants better coverage, they could take out personal insurace to cover the extra costs.
You forgot to mention that medical insurance alone will not even get you admitted to a hospital even if you are dying of a heart attack. Why? Because the Chinese medical system is built on bribery. But yes, China does care for its older population to a degree. And, thanks to the CCP and its policies (especially the One Child Policy), which the CCP adhered to far too long, China is about to enter a profound change in demographics, actually the largest demographic shift this world has ever seen. Currently, approximately 8 working-age Chinese support the pensions of every retiree. But over the next 30 years, this 8:1 ratio will drastically shrink to 2:1. What do you suppose that might do to Chinese GDP, as the number of workers drastically decreases? And, the world's most populous country is no longer China, but is now India (as of 2023), and China's population is predicted to DECREASE for the rest of this century. The reason for this is because Chinese couples no longer want any more than one child, because with more children, you decrease the chances that you can supply that child with all the extra help and benefits to equip them to succeed in the world.
I just wonder how accurate Dr Ann Lin's presentation is. 🤔🤔🤔 I think she makes a lot of generalisations or she skims over her explanations. As a result, I get the impression she is giving her own interpretations of how things work in China or how well the Chinese population is doing. It will be a mistake to give the audience the wrong view of China or to reinforce the China- bad view they already have.
Totally agree, Dr Ann Lin over-over-simplified most historical events to get to her points, it's not about which side of view she's taking. I do appreciate her effect to help the western audience to understand China a bit better.
@@NeoStart20 1) by your "over-over-simplyfying", Dr Lin does NOT help her Western audience "to understand China a bit better". It only re-inforces the bias China-bad views they have. 2) Someone said she was originally from Taiwan? Does this influence her views about China? 3) Is her comment on dual leadership (2 ladders) in organisations in China true??? This is the first time I heard of this. Is this the NORMAL practice in ALL organisations/institutions/businesses/etc. in China??? This would make China an outdated inefficiently CPC controlled country. Yet in ACTUAL fact, China has some of the best universities in the world, the most STEM graduates, the most Granted Patents, etc. So how can this be? 4) When she said CCP instead of CPC, I already suspected her views. Also, China brokered a peace deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran, NOT United Arab Emirates (UAE) as she said.
Every person like her living in the other country is trying their best to find institutional loopholes in their native country, as a Chinese or the United States. This is the philosophy of survival. As a Chinese, I sympathize with her very much.
@@michaelzm76 I just watched another video Stanford Institute for Economic Policy on US-China Relationship. Too many of these so called "China experts" presenting a view of China and the Chinese people that the West wants to hear. But at the end of the day, do you believe that China- bad reporting will make their Western audience accept these "survivals" better than superficial? Will they embrace the "survivals" as truly one of them? If so, good for them.
I don't believe the US fears China's economic rise. I think the US is only fearing China's military rise. The word rise needs a qualifying word to make relevant sense.
I simply cannot relate to a Political Discourse where the term " We" is thrown around.Growing up under Apartheid our teachers never spoke in terms of us " Brown People" as opposed to them " White People" but in terms of the political system called Apartheid. Given however , that the term Apartheid is a direct translation of the American term Segregation I suspect that White teachers spoke to their students in terms of " We".
No, i learned from Japanese and started calling the U.S. 米國, "rice country" phonetically after Trump named Covid 19, Kungflu, and course, subsequent bullying behaviors of the U.S. politicians. The U.S. doesn't deserve to be called a "beautiful country" anymore. Surprisingly, many of my friends are doing the same. The U.S. should be lucky that they are called 霉國😂！

You should visit Tibet, Xinjiang and those places you have issue and see for yourself. Be on the ground and find the truth. This would be better than hearsay. See real people living in their actual condition.
Well, going forward China rise and competition with my country actually is a good thing for the entire world....why? Because right now a perception around the world is China a Democrat party and my country as a republican party, these two parties will try to get the support as much as they can...so nowadays small and big develops countries will have a voice going forward 👍 and these two countries will try as hard as they can to win them over....LOL 😮
I think she meant, Russia has spear of influence over Mongolia. Mongolia did want to join Russia but was rejected because they don't want to create problem with China.
Willy Wonka, Mongolia was smart to remain somewhat independent and neutral thereby avoiding it’s own destruction, as is currently occurring to Ukraine.
What is missing in China? If the government is so bad, let the Chinese deal with them. Why are you worried about them? Your problem is that the Chinese love their government! Mainstream media portray ccp as bad and evil. Check whether you are the one being brainwashed instead of them.
This lady does a very poor job of explaining China. She is wrong about many things, example: The Dali kept the peasants poor and servile. China now has given them freedom to make a better living. China built airports, roads and fast train to Tibet. The speaker sounds like a Japanese, with her negative points. I gave it a down.
You guys always missed the key point. Now China don't allow any foreigners to do business freely in China. But China are requiring US or Europe to let them do whatever they want in US, Europe place. That's not fair.
"Fear of Stranger" is a human instinct or human right. Therefore, US has the right to fear China [stranger]. US also has the right ti take the next step to eliminate the fear by incinerating China.

Not everybody in the CPC can be brilliant. Intelligent? Yes. Capable? Yes. But to rise to the top in Chinese politics, you must demonstrate a record of achievement. You must prove yourself. That's how the cream rises to the top.

It u consider the odds of a brilliant person rising, the process of selection would allow not only the cream but also china’s share of brilliant minds. And a few hundred of them would be easy peacy

Yes agreed, these so-called China experts are paid & funded by the US CIA to smear China, most of them haven't even been to China.

They should invite Gordon chang the so called China expert with his collapsing theory
China is doing what works for them. US should be doing what works for them as well. China don't build these to make a profit as the sole reason....I believe they do it for the benefit of the people and country. Although in America, profit would be the main reason but for China, profit is not the main reason.
I agree. All governments should build infrastructures for the benefit/convenience of their citizens. After all, that is one purpose of collecting taxes/revenue. If everything has to be weighed and based on profit, nothing will get done. That is why US has zero HSR.
thats why US make war everywhere....making sure MIC keep going profit
China government is not profit driven(also long sight). But West corporates are profit driven.
@@BestluckYan Yes indeed. And it's crazy how the West exploits their own people and using them for their political gain. It's so sickening how the people are used for all these agendas such as gun control, vaccines, division, etc. America is a very dangerous place.
for China sometimes profit is not the main reason indeed - because they develop themself to make sure "national humiliation" never happens again.
Seeing Western Media thought I would be visiting a dystopian place upon visiiting Guangzhou in 2019. Found people not seem repressed, no rationing, people had wide selection in cuisine, goods, clothing including western brands. Modern infrastructure, public share bikes, lots of EVs, online delivery & uber equivalents. I could freely access MSN, Yahoo & Live & everybody could get a VPN if they wanted to for Google, Netflix (met few expats live there now, all have VPNs & feel safe, esp. the women going out at night ). No one stopped me from filming which thought would happen. Communist seem to be in name only. It's more like Singapore, the one party state with capitalism for most part; I realized the Western Media exaggerating for a certain narrative.
Thank you Sir for mentioning my country, Singapore in a "favourable" light. In Singapore, we voted for the People's Action Party as the ruling party because it delivered and continues to deliver the goods. Currently, we do have an Opposition in Parliament with a distinguished Leader of the Opposition. We are evolving our brand of democracy with strong emphasis on meritocracy. We are 3/4 Chinese for our demographic, so we share the same Confucianist heritage with China. Please visit us if you have not already done so. We are tourist-friendly country. Unless you intend to carry drug into our country, rest assured you will leave our country alive, with happy memories. And hopefully back for a second visit. God bless.
China is not Singapore. China still has talents and expertise in various fields and professions. Political parties in China have a system of one-party governance, multi-party participation in politics and people's democratic consultation, including the National People's Congress, the Political Consultative Conference and the Party Congress. In addition, in China, banks, finance, military industry, oil, gas, energy, food, water, power grid fees, communications, high-speed rail, aircraft, buses, buses, railways, roads, infrastructure, public health facilities and key livelihood facilities and supplies are state-owned enterprises. Most of the medical and pharmaceutical industries and education industries are market economies, but when there are problems in the market economy, there will be state regulation.
You are certainly ain't like minded and observing the Rule Based Order in telling the truth of what are happening or becoming of modern China nowadays.
Dun worry your Google account won't be blocked or censored bcoz it will be sunk in the ocean of free media, reports, propagandas from the freest, reputable, giant and "truely" free global media corporations and regional affiliates.
Should have asked should the world fear USA's rise and maintaining it's hagemony over the world? That's a much relevant question!
Thanks for uploading this video. It's a quite transparent explanation of China's perspective and vision. At the end of her lecture, the problems China's facing are really severe. And that's why the current government is so eager to transform the country's industry from medium level manufacturing to a highly sophisticated one, and replace manual labors by robots to accelerate productivity. Certainly it will takes a long time to solve those problems, but they've been working on it for years, and to those youth who're graduating from colleges, the best way to survive is to invest in yourselves and be patient for new opportunities coming up. After all, China is still the prospect of booming economic entity.
All economies face challenges, including China's and USA's. I'd say the USA has greater challenges and is more likely to collapse from them.
China has been overcoming challenges for over 3,500 years. China overcame many challenges since opening up in 1979. _Never bet against China._
When did China say it had medium level manufacturing? China is the only country with all the industrial categories recognized by the United Nations, including low, middle, high, upper, middle and lower. And China says that economic transformation is only to facilitate the whole system of high-end production. Independence, self-reliance. China's manufacturing value added is higher than the G7 combined. China's cutting-edge technology and industry can be a lot, but the large population needs the industry to continue to high-end advanced share.
@@horridohobbies Her views are still ideological, she does not say that the United States paid reparations to the Chinese territorial concessions and the opium trade and controlled the financial banks in China, and she also talks about the Korean War, the Vietnam War and the first 30 years of the new China agriculture, industry, economy, politics, military science and technology laws and regulations, aerospace technology, two bombs and one star, land reform, industrial planning reform, etc. The progress of socialist reform laid a solid foundation for entering the WTO, especially after the reform and opening up. Before the Cold War between China and the Soviet Union, China was open to the Soviet Union, the second world and the third world, while the United States blocked and isolated China. After the Sino-Soviet conflict, the two camps blocked and isolated China together, but China always tried to break through the blockade and isolation and still relied on foreign ports to exchange and trade. Then there was the economic crisis of the United States in the 1970s and the Soviet Union's attack on the United States, the United States needed China's help in the perfect retreat from the Vietnam War, and you carried out a counterattack or war against Vietnam against the countries surrounding the Soviet Union's support for Vietnam and the Sino-Vietnamese border expansion, and the United States allied with China against the Soviet Union, and the United States needed China's market and human resources to solve its economic problems, After the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States? Open to America.
@@雅君墨客-i9z She also said that China did not come out well from the Korean war which is in the contrary. The war brought more than 70 years of peace for China. Because of the war, USA dare not challenge China militarily. When China drew the line in the Vietname war, US dare not put any boots into North Vietnam.
Its all the American unfounded self created fear. The rising China is good for the world, America included. This make more countries wanted to emulate China rise, in the process, raise the standard to another level
You are looking at it with a view of what a common person would think; but the fear isn't unfounded because any independent country is a direct threat to the US led imperialism. Hence it continues to create such fear for the sheep through state of art propaganda, so they will be willing to fight the war against China on behalf of the imperialist warmongers in the name of patriotism, "freedom," "democracy," and/or all the Orwellian double talk propaganda terms. The real problem is the average Joe doesn't understand western imperialism has never went away but evolved to what we have today.
They want the resources all to themselves everybody else is the slave to them, you agree with that?😂
1. U.S. should not fear China's rise.
2. U.S. has abundance of good talents and thus they can strive for the rapid advancement of their nation. These efforts will not let China to surpass U.S.
3. China's rise is its determination to stop foreign bully and invasion which lasted for many years if not century. The strong self defense is absolutely necessary because this is the way to foster world order and to suppress hegemony.
4. Looking back the Korean War and Vietnam War , the world should be enlightened by the cruel fact that those countries opt for non-democracy political system may be destroyed by hegemony and thus they must build up their military strength.to deter foreign invasion.
"U.S. has abundance of good talents and thus they can strive for the rapid advancement of their nation. These efforts will not let China to surpass U.S."
In 2016, China graduated 4.7 million STEM graduates. The USA graduated 600,000. China will be the technological leader very soon, if not already.
According to ASPI, China leads in 37 out of 44 technological fields.

@@iechuanlee9326 美国国家政策是根据“顶层建筑”的需求而设定的，不是从它们眼里那些更低的视角看待问题。所以：人民觉得不合理，不等于它们觉得政策不合理。
@@iechuanlee9326 Many people say " U.S. is the world trouble maker ". What you mentioned actually is " U.S. creates many problems / troubles ". Thank you very much for telling the unethical facts to all viewers of this video.
I would like our audience friends to better understand China. The architect of Open Door Policy was XP Deng. The first country that he visited was Japan. He was questioned then by the media how he is going to handle the bad experienced with the Japanese invasion. He said " I am here to explore cooperation with your country and contain our differences". That's Chinese mentality.
Another leader that my friends should know is Xi. Xi's father was one of the Chinese leaders that helped Mao. Unfortunately he said something wrong which upset Mao. Xi was then a kid, he was sent to the village side to work, no schooling whatsoever. Xi experienced the poorest side of China. He is hard working, when he has opportunity he studied. He is determined to pull his people our of poverty throughout his career. And it is this determination which enabled him to move gradually into today's position.
Unlike democratic countries, no one in the CCP could move to the top without successful contributions to the country.
In the last 40 years CCP is a government that has adopted numerous changes. CCP invited experts from all over the world and begged to learn from them.
The most imortant lesson to CCP was the disintegration of the Soviet Union - corruption could bring the party down. Since then, great effort has been spent by Xi to curb corruption. This is by far not an easy task. There are still coruption in China but much more contained then before. Xi has to grip sufficient power in the CCP in order to run the country and in particular curb corruption.
China with 1.4 billion mouths to feed. It could only pray for peace and cooperation.
China is spreading its multipolar culture and that's where the earth is heading. Should US failed to adjust themself to accept this culture and work together with rest of the world, we are heading a big disaster.
So very true. Thanks.
Every country will rise and fall
Actually this is the rule of the world
Nobody can stop it
Maybe you should also note that Lee KY of Singapore must have had inspired him when he visited the tiny island, witnessing how with determination the barren island could achieve so much!
The CCP is not all wonderful and happy and ready to serve China. The way people advance in China (in the CCP that is) is to become "Yes Men" and not rock the boat by disagreeing with higher-ups. Or, more typically, to resort to sycophancy, just as Mao did in the early years. This was well documented in Jung Chang and Jon Holliday's book on "Mao." This causes excessive inbreeding, since "out of the box" thinking is automatically labelled as "incorrect." In fact, "out of the box" thinking is essentially not allowed in the CCP. People either think "correctly" or not, and ONLY those who think "correctly" are allowed to advance. Now, Xi Jinping has steadily cut the number of "Yes Men" advisors that he consults with, and how likely do you think these Yes Men are to tell Xi he is wrong about something? You'd have to be absolutely crazy to do that, if not suicidal. This leads to an even GREATER degree of inbred thinking, and this is directly correlated with Xi's accumulation of greater and greater levels of power. What I am saying is that the CCP and its history demonstrates that Lord Acton was absolutely right: "Power corrupts, and absolute power tends to corrupt absolutely." The obvious antidote to absolute power is checks and balances, but in China, these hardly exist, and this is a by product of the design of the Yes Man mentality in government. This is just one reason why I am not confident in China's ability to solve its ever-increasing problems that are becoming crippling. The answer is NOT to make one man supremely powerful, even if you think he IS a corruption fighter. In Xi's case, this comes down to the fact that Xi does indeed fight corruption---in his political enemies. This not only presents a deceptive picture, but actually makes his own corruption---which is inevitable; see Lord Acton's quote---all the more alive and well and corrosive. The antidote to fighting corruption is to give the corruption fighter more and more power. Then just watch while he slowly unravels, becomes corrupt himself, become drunk with his power, listens to fewer and fewer people, and destroys himself, his party, and his country. And Xi is just the latest in a line of Chinese leaders who have done just that, starting with Mao Zedong. I'm not saying that Mao was a bad man. That's not my point. What I AM saying is that one sure-fire way to corrupt even the most moral, just man is to give him unlimited power to make decisions about a country. I guarantee you will turn him into a monster, and he will be just as shocked at that as you no doubt are right now.
All countries' leaders should be sent to live and work for a few years in poor regions in their countries to experience first hand how hard life for poor people there, before they can become leaders of their countries.
No country should be afraid of any other nation which has demonstrated non-aggression stance toward its neighbors in history, no military bases across the globe, and has not started any wars in the past deades.

No, not at all.
China has demonstrated for centuries that they are only interested in win-win trade...
At the beginning of the 15th century, they had a huge Navy, led by Admiral Zheng He, which travelled all over the World they could but NEVER threatened anyone.
Today, China has ONE military naval base in Djibouti, to HELP fight pirates, while the US has more than 850...
This FACT says it all.
She presented that nothing turn out right for communist China before DengXiaoPing. This is completely not true. Communist China has consistent annual economic growth of 6-8% even during cultural revolution and great leap forward. Cultural revolution isn't all bad too. It laid the industrial infrastructure and foundation that enabled the rapid take off during the Deng Era. It also changed key cultural attitudes of the people which is a key foundation of subsequent growth.
Korean war also enabled China to command respect on world stage. Vietname war I and II also enabled a peaceful neighbourhood for growth.
Don't try to talk to those who pretend they are blind and deaf.
The 9 dash line is agreed under the Potsdam Declaration after WWII for China’s right to declare its own
close but it was Iran and Saudi Arabia that China brokered the peace deal. China is too intertwined in the global economy and too large a base to counter. It's best to work with China to gain wealth and prosperity during its rise. Countering it is unproductive and will only cause more suffering around the world and here in the US.

For anyone wondering what the video was about...
The author of the video put 2 sets of news reports side by side for viewers to compare.
One was from the BBC, and the other from China.
The incredible thing was that NOT ONLY were BOTH reports about the exact same topic, and using the exact same source. But in fact, BOTH were actually THE exact same report!! Just presented differently.
Unfortunately I can't show it here. But it's probably the best video by far that shows to what EXTREME extent the western mainstream media is willing to go to paint a certain picture of the world.
It also explains why overseas ethnic Chinese such as myself would eventually side with China in these debates.
You are not alone feeling this way, bro. I'm Hong Konger. And I always read or watch news from both side. Like the riots in HK back in 2019(it so call "peaceful protests" by the west).

4:56 Historical error: On February 12, 1912, the Qing emperor announced the abdication of the Qing throne. So it is not 1919 that the Qing dynasty was overthrown. That is a very serious mistake for a university forum like this.
It doesn't matter for most Americans. They don't care facts
Listen again. She did not say Qing dynasty was overthrown in 1919. She was talking about the May 4 1919 incident AFTER the overthrow of Qing Dynasty. I don't think she mentioned the year of revolution. By the way, the Qing Dynasty was overthrown in 1911 and the Republic declared in 1912.
While I feel there is a lot of good background on China’s history and development, the statement about showing Chinese overseas students why “democracy is better” is quite arrogant. Something that’s better needs to be proven. I’m sorry but even as an American I don’t believe it works in the US. Much of what the US has become doesn’t reflect the idealisms of democracy. One could even argue a lot of it is authoritarian. How much of the US population actually wants to be part of the Russian Ukrainian conflict rather than putting those resources into solving the massive homeless problem.
Another comment Ann makes about China’s stance on Ukraine and Taiwan is similar, is extremely superficial. There is so much more context regarding the many years of ongoing conflict between them as commitments were not fulfilled by Ukraine, and what about NATO’s encroachment around Russia. What if this was done to the US by Russia or even better, another militarized bloc.
It's not only arrogant. It's ignorant and idiocy.
A different but much unbiased view from the general malicious western narrative
US democracy has not been very effective in recent decades. You say it's sometimes a mess. I'd say it's a mess most of the time...
What do Chinese students observe when they come to America? Deep political division and turmoil (e.g., January 6, 2021). A crushing national debt (currently approaching $32 trillion). Crumbling national infrastructure. Unaffordable health care. Rampant homelessness. Rampant gun violence. Mass incarceration. Opioid epidemic. I could go on and on.
Why does the richest nation on earth suffer from all these domestic problems? It beggars belief.
The accountability lies at the feet of the US government and US democracy.
You are so right. There's a saying within Chinese especially younger people nowaday. "The more time you spend abroad(travel or study), the more patriotic you'll become."
Western is always very sample and often naive
you only fear what you don't understand. change happens, these are unprecedented times as they say and deeply concerning is also heard a lot this year.
Do not underestimate the politicians, they know China, they just do not want China to grow bigger, more impact, even now, U.S already can not achieve many things without working with China. 15/20 years ago, China plays little roles in the world.
Kinmen island (controlled by ROC-Taiwan) is only 6 miles away from mainland China.
Quite a strange title, this is not whether the US should be afraid of the rise of China. Because the US "already" fears the rise of China, and it cannot be changed. At the same time, this is the cheapest and easiest way for American politicians to gain political leverage. Moreover, driven by the unremitting efforts of the Western media, this trend cannot be changed. Please don't waste time talking about it.

中国地铁每年都在亏损 可中共依然扩建铁路项目 目的是要改善贫富差距
"You have nothing to fear but fear itself" FDR.
It is not exactly a two boss system. It is very similar to CEO and COO. The party secretary always run the operation who inturn reports to the head who have the overall leadership, decide on strategy and have the final say.
The speaker was very careful not to show her hand until towards the end of the broadcast. Essentially, she advocates that the China threat is a bogus one. We should learn to co-exist peacefully. Both countries will gain from it.
I agree with her views.
Her setup was excellent by explaining China’s century of humiliation. Her aim was to provide some historical context to drive home the reason why Taiwan is the reddest of all red lines for the Chinese leadership.
I wished she would have been more forceful to assert that Taiwan is a province of China; virtually every nation on the planet acknowledges that. And, the US’s actions are unacceptable and illegal - selling weapons to a province of China, stoking internal conflicts and pitting one group of Chinese against another. The US has no business to stick their nose in there.
She should have asked the audience this question: if the shoe was on the other foot, would it be acceptable to them?
CCP today is about meritocracy
First, why should the world number 1 fear of any one nation. Fear is not the right word. Should US wish to remain as the world number 1 power, it should work hard to improve itself in terms of economic and political strength. Today, most nations have advanced significantly. It is impossible to exercise collonial or imperial strategy over these nations. US with its strength should reach out to help the developing countries. US should understand that all developing countries is desirous to have peace. Provoking fight and war will no longer welcome by these countries.
The USA should fix its own problems in order to compete with China, not resort to Tonya Harding-style tactics. China isn't the threat to US global dominance - the USA's internal problems are.
The problem of the western world is that they have the mentality of German in ww2
They think that they are the Master Race
是的，我也不理解美国政客和人民为什么要恐惧，以前绝大多数中国人都相信美国倡导的普世价值和全球化的概念，把美国当作人类文明的灯塔，学习美国多元文化价值观。但是中国的制度和美国的制度不应该是你死我活的关系啊，它是人类文明的两种组织形态，我们可以互相学习和借鉴，这不正是多元的真正体现吗？但是西方嘴上喊着尊重多元价值，行动上却要不停的打压与自己不同的制度。这种矛盾与双重标准，让中国人民不厌其烦。
Yes, I also don't understand why American politicians and people are so fearful. Most Chinese used to believe in the universal values and globalization promoted by the United States, and regarded the United States as a beacon of human civilization, learning from its multicultural values. However, the Chinese system and the American system should not be in a life-and-death relationship. They are two different forms of human civilization and we can learn from and draw on each other's strengths. Isn't this the true embodiment of diversity? But while Westerners chant respect for diverse values, they incessantly suppress systems that differ from theirs. This contradiction and double standard is really irritating to the Chinese people.
@@yongzhu8454 那你應該沒有讀過西方的歷史 西方的國家 其實不嬲都係爭權奪利 和平的時間少 打仗的時間多

its over too late, with trillion in debt and increasing...doom
Everyone should be afraid of God , loving , being just and peaceful, or God’s severe punishment will be unavoidable
China has some social security. All people working have to take out a social insurance. It covers a significant part of the persons medical expenses, not all, but a fair percentage. Should any one wants better coverage, they could take out personal insurace to cover the extra costs.
You forgot to mention that medical insurance alone will not even get you admitted to a hospital even if you are dying of a heart attack. Why? Because the Chinese medical system is built on bribery. But yes, China does care for its older population to a degree. And, thanks to the CCP and its policies (especially the One Child Policy), which the CCP adhered to far too long, China is about to enter a profound change in demographics, actually the largest demographic shift this world has ever seen. Currently, approximately 8 working-age Chinese support the pensions of every retiree. But over the next 30 years, this 8:1 ratio will drastically shrink to 2:1. What do you suppose that might do to Chinese GDP, as the number of workers drastically decreases? And, the world's most populous country is no longer China, but is now India (as of 2023), and China's population is predicted to DECREASE for the rest of this century. The reason for this is because Chinese couples no longer want any more than one child, because with more children, you decrease the chances that you can supply that child with all the extra help and benefits to equip them to succeed in the world.
@Eddie Hughes a lot of Chinese are still relatively poor, specially in the countryside. Some very old folks are still working very hard.
excellent lecture
I wish the US government would listen to this wise lady.
I just wonder how accurate Dr Ann Lin's presentation is. 🤔🤔🤔 I think she makes a lot of generalisations or she skims over her explanations. As a result, I get the impression she is giving her own interpretations of how things work in China or how well the Chinese population is doing. It will be a mistake to give the audience the wrong view of China or to reinforce the China- bad view they already have.
Dr. Ann Lin use the western history, not from the China view point.
Totally agree, Dr Ann Lin over-over-simplified most historical events to get to her points, it's not about which side of view she's taking. I do appreciate her effect to help the western audience to understand China a bit better.
@@NeoStart20 1) by your "over-over-simplyfying", Dr Lin does NOT help her Western audience "to understand China a bit better". It only re-inforces the bias China-bad views they have.
2) Someone said she was originally from Taiwan? Does this influence her views about China?
3) Is her comment on dual leadership (2 ladders) in organisations in China true??? This is the first time I heard of this. Is this the NORMAL practice in ALL organisations/institutions/businesses/etc. in China??? This would make China an outdated inefficiently CPC controlled country. Yet in ACTUAL fact, China has some of the best universities in the world, the most STEM graduates, the most Granted Patents, etc. So how can this be?
4) When she said CCP instead of CPC, I already suspected her views. Also, China brokered a peace deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran, NOT United Arab Emirates (UAE) as she said.
Every person like her living in the other country is trying their best to find institutional loopholes in their native country, as a Chinese or the United States. This is the philosophy of survival. As a Chinese, I sympathize with her very much.
@@michaelzm76 I just watched another video Stanford Institute for Economic Policy on US-China Relationship. Too many of these so called "China experts" presenting a view of China and the Chinese people that the West wants to hear. But at the end of the day, do you believe that China- bad reporting will make their Western audience accept these "survivals" better than superficial? Will they embrace the "survivals" as truly one of them? If so, good for them.
A bit of the mainland is under the ROC - Tawanese administration BTW - lol
I don't believe the US fears China's economic rise. I think the US is only fearing China's military rise. The word rise needs a qualifying word to make relevant sense.
release the 2 million slaves ,taiwanese,Uighurs in concentraion camps working for nothing
I simply cannot relate to a Political Discourse where the term " We" is thrown around.Growing up under Apartheid our teachers never spoke in terms of us " Brown People" as opposed to them " White People" but in terms of the political system called Apartheid. Given however , that the term Apartheid is a direct translation of the American term Segregation I suspect that White teachers spoke to their students in terms of " We".
TW is last missing piece, and would act as a closure of China's century of humiliation
China calls America “beautiful country” mei guo. We call China 1/6 of humanity no human rights… 😊
Mei Guo support their allies the Saudi who have worst human rights you ever imagine ...I guess you out of your mind
No, i learned from Japanese and started calling the U.S. 米國, "rice country" phonetically after Trump named Covid 19, Kungflu, and course, subsequent bullying behaviors of the U.S. politicians. The U.S. doesn't deserve to be called a "beautiful country" anymore. Surprisingly, many of my friends are doing the same. The U.S. should be lucky that they are called 霉國😂！
This is how the US pays China back.🥲
China now calls usa farkup guo ! just saying eh!
The Second Amendment is a violation of human rights.
U.S. should not fear China .....win win solution is d best policy..not a zero sum hegemony..
Talk talk.. Share care for peace way to go.. No more grandfather story to rule the world
I am from China and I am watch this utube.
Should doesn't matter. Fact is they do.
When your opponent rises up so scarily fast and become a lot more stronger than you, it is very natural that first, you are in denial mode, next you keep complaining illogically, next you sabotage as much as you can no matter while low life and despicable you actions are, and finally, you capitulate. Meanwhile, it is very natural that you will feel very much threaten and afraid, very afraid and paranoia ...WE UNDERSTAND
I would like to ask her if young Tibetans have the same oportunities as the Han people,similarly in Xijiang ,are they all out of comcentration camps and is the taking of human organs stopped yet? also Is china going to return all the neighbours territories
You should visit Tibet, Xinjiang and those places you have issue and see for yourself. Be on the ground and find the truth. This would be better than hearsay. See real people living in their actual condition.
Well, going forward China rise and competition with my country actually is a good thing for the entire world....why? Because right now a perception around the world is China a Democrat party and my country as a republican party, these two parties will try to get the support as much as they can...so nowadays small and big develops countries will have a voice going forward 👍 and these two countries will try as hard as they can to win them over....LOL 😮
mongolia "is" a russian province?
Mongolia is independent ..country...with excellent ties with China....Inner Mongolia...belongs to China...
@@ganboonmeng5370 i know thats why im surprised i heard the presenter state it was a "russian province" (it was a soviet satellite state)
I think she meant, Russia has spear of influence over Mongolia. Mongolia did want to join Russia but was rejected because they don't want to create problem with China.
@@dlk3904 She's not wrong that Mongolia was a Soviet province because the Soviet had a military presence in Mongolia at that time.
Willy Wonka, Mongolia was smart to remain somewhat independent and neutral thereby avoiding it’s own destruction, as is currently occurring to Ukraine.
But is what they missing really that good or beneficial to the Chinese Society?
What is missing in China? If the government is so bad, let the Chinese deal with them. Why are you worried about them? Your problem is that the Chinese love their government! Mainstream media portray ccp as bad and evil. Check whether you are the one being brainwashed instead of them.
They did not miss anything of value. In fact it is far better for them to miss those rubbish
This lady does a very poor job of explaining China. She is wrong about many things, example: The Dali kept the peasants poor and servile. China now has given them freedom to make a better living. China built airports, roads and fast train to Tibet. The speaker sounds like a Japanese, with her negative points. I gave it a down.
preaching in Church?
Talk was 6/10 - history and Chinese views was mostly right but there is twists and inaccurancies on the details - lol
這種演講台灣都看不到，這不是一件好事
You guys always missed the key point. Now China don't allow any foreigners to do business freely in China. But China are requiring US or Europe to let them do whatever they want in US, Europe place. That's not fair.
Definitely NOT!
China us already
Beat yanks
"Fear of Stranger" is a human instinct or human right. Therefore, US has the right to fear China [stranger]. US also has the right ti take the next step to eliminate the fear by incinerating China.
Haha - Russia just annxed Mongola and is now a Russian place - lol
Today’s China is no longer same China under Deng Xiaoping. China is going back to the one like 1950-1970.
不敢讲真话
