Thank you . You have provided a lot of useful information about China. Many achievements in China are very useful for the Vietnamese to learn and carry out economic, scientific and technical cooperation. I hope that Vietnam and China will limit their disagreements over the South China Sea. Now in Vietnam there is still a lack of correct and sufficient information about China, partly because China is weak in PR. Many Vietnamese are still Pro American. Vietnamese newspapers often quote and translate from Western media, most of which are dishonest and distorted news about China. Fortunately, Vietnamese leaders also understand that: the US is playing the Vietnamese card against China. Vietnam, through years of war with the US, knows how to solve the game and still be useful to Vietnam
Legacy of French colonial rule on one hand (Sino-French war of 1888), the other would be the effects of the ideological schism between Beijing and Moscow during the Cold War.
And comes Malaysia, the Philippined and Brunei claiming part of these disputed features.
Poor in PR, sure, but rather an aggressive disinfo drive versus China's rise.
I hope so too. China and Vietnam have so many in common that we can understand each other.

from what I have heard majority of the north veitnamese are of chinese origin and speak mandarin as well as the local veitnamese,it wouldnt be surprised if people from north veitnam have a positive opinion about china
China is facing the challenge of real estate but will not stop China's economy to grow cus expected to grow about 8% which may increase the gdp from $14.8-17.2T or maybe more.Let me hope the economy will be stable next year
I thought the aim and goal was 6%, as 8% was overheating the economy?

This is really a well-spent 30 minutes listening to Pascal Coppens' insight into China's past and present. I'm particularly moved by Pascal's deep knowledge on the common prosperity goal whereas China wants to expand the size of its middle class to avoid the trap of the top 10% own 90% of the nation's wealth. This is something that even the intended beneficiaries in Chinese society failed to understand properly and some went so far as to compare it to robbing the rich to give to the poor -- the way Western media bad-mouthed China on the crackdown on the billionaires and predicted the impending death of Chinese high-tech industry. Bravo, Pascal.
Thanks Jack. Maybe I could make a video on common prosperity
@@PascalCoppens
Please do, Pascal. It will open the eyes of a lot of people, even to some short-sighted Chinese citizens inside the country. Much appreciated.
@One of 1.41BsmartPPL thx!
@@PascalCoppens Indeed I be very interested in that!!!
Made the video. ruclips.net/video/hsVp-2da5C4/видео.html
Dear Pascal, you are so good in making summaries that are precise and pinning the key facts. Thank you & pls continue to do so that is so important that the world can understand China better.
Thanks!
Pascal, I like your term of 'clean-up' to describe the work done by the Chinese Government and its people in 2021.
Under the administration of the CPC, China's progress and advancement are pointing to a right direction to excel into the next few decades.
Long live China ❗
👍👏💪🙏
The following is what I borrowed from a Malaysian RUclipsr’s comment:
I’m from Malaysia. China has traded with Malaysia for 2000 years. In those years, they had been the world’s biggest powers many times. Never once they sent troops to take our land. Admiral Zhenghe came to Malacca five times, in gigantic fleets, and a flagship eight times the size of Christopher Columbus’ flagship, Santa Maria. He could have seized Malacca easily, but he did not. In 1511, the Portuguese came. In 1642, the Dutch came. In the 18th century the British came. We were colonised by each, one after another.
When China wanted spices from India, they traded with the Indians. When they wanted gems, they traded with the Persian. They didn’t take lands. The only time China expanded beyond their current borders was in Yuan Dynasty, when Genghis and his descendants Ogedei Khan, Guyuk Khan & Kublai Khan concurred China, Mid Asia and Eastern Europe. But Yuan Dynasty, although being based in China, was a part of the Mongolian Empire.
Then came the Century of Humiliation. Britain smuggled opium into China to dope the population, a strategy to turn the trade deficit around, after the British could not find enough silver to pay the Qing Dynasty in their tea and porcelain trades. After the opium warehouses were burned down and ports were closed by the Chinese in ordered to curb opium, the British started the Opium War I, which China lost. Hong Kong was forced to be surrendered to the British in a peace talk (Nanjing Treaty). The British owned 90% of the opium market in China, during that time, Queen Victoria was the world’s biggest drug baron. The remaining 10% was owned by American merchants from Boston. Many of Boston’s institutions were built with profit from opium.
After 12 years of Nanjing Treaty, the West started getting really really greedy. The British wanted the Qing government:
1. To open the borders of China to allow goods coming in and out freely, and tax free.
2. Make opium legal in China.
Insane requests, Qing government said no. The British and French (with supports from the US), started Opium War II with China, which again, China lost. The Anglo-French military raided the Summer Palace, and threatened to burn down the Imperial Palace, the Qing government was forced to pay with ports, free business zones, 300,000 kilograms of silver and Kowloon was taken. Since then, China’s resources flew out freely through these business zones and ports. In the subsequent amendment to the treaties, Chinese people were sold overseas to serve as labor.
In 1900, China suffered attacks by the 8-National Alliance (Empire of Japan, Russian Empire, British Empire (including India), France, USA, Germany, Italy, Austria-Hungary). Innocent Chinese civilians in Peking (Beijing now) were murdered, buildings were destroyed & women were raped. The Imperial Palace was raided, and treasures ended up in museums like the British Museum in London and the Louvre in Paris.
In late 1930s China was occupied by the Japanese in WWII. Millions of Chinese died during the occupancy. 300,000 Chinese died in Nanjing Massacre alone.
Mao brought China together again from the shambles. There were peace and unity for some time. But Mao’s later reign saw sufferings and deaths from famine and power struggles.
Then came Deng Xiao Ping and his infamous “black-cat and white-cat” story. His preference in pragmatism than ideologies has transformed China. This thinking allowed China to evolve all the time to adapt to the actual needs in the country, instead of rigidly bounded to ideologies. It also signified the death of Communism in actually practice in China. The current Socialism+Meritocracy+Market Economy model fits the Chinese like gloves, and it propels the uprise of China. Singapore has a similar model, and has been arguably more successful than Hong Kong, because Hong Kong being gateway to China, was riding on the economic boom in China, while Singapore had no one to gain from.
In just 30 years, the CPC have moved 800 millions of people out from poverty. The rate of growth is unprecedented in human history. They have built the biggest mobile network, by far the biggest high speed rail network in the world, and they have become a behemoth in infrastructure. They made a fishing village called Shenzhen into the world’s second largest technological centre after the Silicon Valley. They are growing into a technological power house. It has the most elaborate e-commerce and cashless payment system in the world. They have launched exploration to Mars. The Chinese are living a good life and China has become one of the safest countries in the world. The level of patriotism in the country has reached an unprecedented height.
For all of the achievements, the West has nothing good to say about it. China suffers from intense anti-China propagandas from the West. Western Media used the keyword “Communist” to instil fear and hatred towards China.
Everything China does is negatively reported.
They claimed China used slave labor in making iPhones. The truth was, Apple was the most profitable company in the world, it took most of the profit, leave some to Foxconn (a Taiwanese company) and little to the labor.
They claimed China was inhuman with one-child policy. At the same time, they accused China of polluting the earth with its huge population. The fact is the Chinese consume just 30% of energy per capita compared to the US.
Minorities in China
Show me any currency in the world which also prints the language of its ethinc minorities. Chinese bank notes show 5 languages of 5 minorities living in China, including Tibetan and Uyghur.
They claimed China underwent ethnic cleansing in Xinjiang. The fact is China has a policy which priorities ethnic minorities. For a long time, the ethnic minorities were allowed to have two children and the majority Han only allowed one. The minorities are allowed a lower score for university intakes. Muslims students get Halal food at the university cafeteria. There are 39,000 mosque in China, and 2100 in the US. China has about 3 times more mosque per muslim than the US.
When terrorist attacks happened in Xinjiang, China had two choices:
1. Re-educate the Uighur extremists before they turned terrorists.
2. Let them be, after they launch attacks and killed innocent people, bomb their homes.
China chose 1 to solve problem from the root and not to do killing. How the US solve terrorism? Fire missiles from battleships, drop bombs from the sky.
During the pandemic,
When China took extreme measures to lockdown the people, they were accused of being inhuman.
When China recovered swiftly because of the extreme measures, they were accused of lying about the actual numbers.
When China’s cases became so low that they could provide medical support to other countries, they were accused of politically motivated.
Western Media always have reasons to bash China.
Just like any country, there are irresponsible individuals from China which do bad and dirty things, but the China government overall has done very well. But I hear this comment over and over by people from the West: I like Chinese people, but the CPC is evil. What they really want is the Chinese to change the government, because the current one is too good.
Fortunately China is not a multi-party democratic country, otherwise the opposition party in China will be supported by notorious NGOs (Non-Government Organization) of the USA, like the NED (National Endowment for Democracy), to topple the ruling party. The US and the British couldn’t crack Mainland China, so they work on Hong Kong. Of all the ex-British colonial countries, only the Hong Kongers were offered BNOs by the British. Because the UK would like the Hong Kongers to think they are British citizens, not Chinese. A divide-and-conquer strategy, which they often used in Color Revolutions around the world.
They resort to low dirty tricks like detaining Huawei’s CFO & banning Huawei. They raised a silly trade war which benefits no one. Trade deficit always exist between a developing and a developed country. USA is like a luxury car seller who ask a farmer: why am I always buying your vegetables and you haven’t bought any of my cars?
When the Chinese were making socks for the world 30 years ago, the world let it be. But when Chinese started to make high technology products, like Huawei and DJI, it caused red-alert. Because when Western and Japanese products are equal to Chinese in technologies, they could never match the Chinese in prices. First world countries want China to continue in making socks. Instead of stepping up themselves, they want to pull China down.
The recent movement by the US against China has a very important background. When Libya, Iran, and China decided to ditch the US dollar in oil trades, Gaddafi’s was killed by the US, Iran was being sanctioned by the US, and now it’s China’s turn. The US has been printing money out of nothing. The only reason why the US Dollar is still widely accepted, is because it’s the only currency which oil is allowed to be traded with. The US has an agreement with Saudi that oil must be traded in US dollar ONLY. Without the petrol-dollar status, the US dollars will sink, and America will fall. Therefore anyone trying to disobey this order will be eliminated. China will soon use a gold-backed crypto-currency, the alarms in the White House go off like mad.
China’s achievements and success have been by hard work. Not by looting and plundering the world.
I have deep respect and love for China for all the suffering and the hardship they endured, but now I feel happy for them. China is not rising, they are going back to where they belong. Good luck China.

Very well summerized
Very true. Could you email a copy of this text to me? I’ll give you my email here if you could.
Its quite sad that America and the Western Countries who are recognised as Christian nations are not able to abide by the teachings of Christianity as well as the way in which China does it.
Luke 3:10-14 says: “What should we do then?” the crowd asked.
John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.” Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?” “Don’t collect any more than you are required to,” he told them. Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely-be content with your pay.”
Acts 4:32-34 says: Now the whole group of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one claimed private ownership of any possessions, but everything they owned was held in common. With great power the apostles gave their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all. There was not a needy person among them, for as many as owned lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold.
Food for thought:
Is Capitalism more of resemblance to those verses or communism?
Its quite sad that America and the Western Countries are not able to abide by the teachings of Christianity as well as the way in which China does it.

Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely-be content with your pay.”
Instead of following these teachings, countries such as England, France, and Portuguese who were "identified" as Christian nations went and plundered other nations. During the days of the industrial revolution, only a few rich people benefitted from it. The working class were also exploited in the name of capitalism. Instead of giving one shirt if you have two, they try to even take what the poor has. People had to work for long hours for very low wages. Under these conditions, labour unions had to be born else the working class would have continued to be exploited, and labour unions are not supposed to exist under a purely capitalistic economy and neither should modern concepts such as "Corporate Social Responsibility" exist under it. The introduction of these meant that elements of communism were introduced into those so-called capitalist nations. They fail to realise that the capitalism they are so proud of is not really capitalism in the true sense but somewhere in between the continuum between Capitalist and Communism.
In terms of human rights, they go around policing other countries when their own home is plagued with such violations. There are certain kinds of people who have assumed that black people were suspicious just upon seeing them when in reality, the person was just minding his business. Even the police were guilty of falsely accusing a black student saying that they were trespassing on a property of a college dorm without any proof when in reality, he was a student there. And this is one such case among others that I came across on the internet. And like you said, they go and start wars if others do not agree with them. One such war is briefly explained in this article: www.thoughtco.com/vietnam-war-s2-1779964.
The early Christians were more of Communists than Capitalists. They pooled their wealth together which was then used to help the poor and the needy. Many of the wealth came from people who sold their property which they then donated freely. Today, the act of charity is also somewhat a type of communism. When a Christian donates their wealth, they do so with the idea that everything that they have is provided by God and that it is their duty to take out a part of what they receive and return it to God in the form of giving it to their neighbours (a.k.a those in need). It existed even during the time of Jacob in Genesis first mentioned in Genesis 28:20-22, and continues to be taught in Churches today.
Acts 4:32-34 says: Now the whole group of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one claimed private ownership of any possessions, but everything they owned was held in common. With great power the apostles gave their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all. There was not a needy person among them, for as many as owned lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold.
Capitalism if done without Government intervention at all tends to motivate people to seek out ways to earn profit even when the means of doing so are questionable. This article truthout.org/articles/pure-capitalism-is-pure-fantasy/ will explain why capitalism which the West, especially America, is proud of is not really something good. It tends to promote inequality in the distribution of wealth.
And just to clarify, although the verses in Acts 4:32-34 suggests of Communism is only about selling your property and giving to others, in reality it is just one part of the Bible and does not reject individual benefit. Jeremiah 29:11 says "For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." When everyone is looking out for each other, everyone benefits, even the one who is doing the giving as there is satisfaction in giving as well as receiving. Practically, when taking into account the scale of a nation, its not possible if its left to individual decision. A government's intervention is required to unite the efforts of the people for the common good.
China's growth is driven by export, internal market, and infrastructure. While the export market (including US) is still extremely good, China is taking this window to deleverage the internal economy, including the real estates, the banking, debts, bad business practices (such as monopolies, abuse of data collections, etc),... When the export market withers with stagnation, China will have rooms to drive the domestic demands (such as increase in salaries of government workers, SOEs).
Good point
China slowly and steadily already decoupling from US market. 5 years from now China will total doesn’t need US market and that’s the time China will sanction and boycott US.
As usual great videos with thorough analysis. This channel is the best source to get unbiased views on China.
Thanks Ravi!
I like how Chinese leadership has clear and concise visions for the future and follows them up with proper actions. Explains the optimism of Chinese citizens in their future. Other countries should be inspired by it. The 5 year plan of action is a great idea !
Agreed. The vision is becoming clearer and the plan to make those visions a reality clearer to.
@@Andy-P In the long run command economies have failed. Maybe China will be the first exception.
@@s.m.7018 Yes maybe...

Another best of the best from you, Mr Coppens. What an episode to wrap up 2021 in just 32 minutes, capturing every important event happening in China under the most appropriate title "The big Clean-up". What is most amazing is that while the whole world is reeling under the strain of Covid, China has not only fully contained it with zero new deaths but has the energy to carry out the Big Clean-up and surprise the world with major progress in science and technology. With a solid foundation after this clean-up, 2022 and beyond is looking positive and promising.
我觉得中共在2021年，疫情还在影响全球，本身还是锁国的情况下，做好做一些产业的转型，减少贫富差距等工作，是非常明智的，等疫情过后，中国很可能以一个较新面貌，继续走在世界经济发展，科技发展的最前端。
@@user-oz9ku7me4c Absolutely agree with you. China must be credited with its handling of Covid-19 and keeping its 1.4 billion population safe, the ramification of which is immense. China keeps "the factory of the world" operating and continue supplying the whole world besides maintaining social order. It's the only country to register positive GDP (Gross Domestic Products) numbers for 2020 and 2021 and has laid a strong new foundation. Western mainstream media has been quiet about this fact because it doesn't fit into their narrative. The Chinese government is the best model in the world and we can see it.
AI, Quantum computer and driverless busses will drive up the productivity hopefully 💥🔥
It is the most comprehensive video for China in RUclips for China's challenges and achievement in 2021 and its planning! Well Done.
Thanks
Very few countries other than China sets short term goals and actually achieve it. We've been trying to set up our high speed rail here in the US since 2009 and still no projected date for it to happen. No wonder China is poised to become the world's biggest economy.
Probably a blessing in disguise with the amount of lockdowns and travel restrictions. Lol. The US would be bleeding money through their nose.
Hi Pascal, the big CLEAN UP is very well presented. Thank you.
Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you and your family!
Thanks!
In 2021, China launched _Tianhe_ (天和) space station core module for China's spacestation _Tiangong_ (天宫) and Chinese taikonauts (Chinese astronauts) docked with the space station module.
I was so hyped when I saw the 6G experiment beginning, wow.. so happy for everyone !
World peace by 2030 or we suck at this and need to do better :-) thanks all for having faith in me.. I don't know what I would be without you all
@@goldnutter412 China is developing a new detachable robotic arm for Tiangong space station, which can "crawl" across the space station exterior through worm-like motions. This would lengthen the reach of the arm, to allow easier installation of additional modules to the space station.
Video: _Design of robotic arm for China’s Tiangong Space Station revealed_ ruclips.net/video/NeJSmtXjZCE/видео.html
While many countries including the US and Europe are still struggling with Covid, China has not only successfully contained the virus with zero new deaths for more that a year, but has launched a new space station and carried out its "big clean-up", much to the envy of the world.👏👏👏
One thing I like in China is the 5year plans and doing experiments on individual cities and gathering data before implement the working law to the whole country with different tweaks for different areas.
The city approach is indeed quite impressive.
It is very a full of integrity to listen about China on this video rather than creating unnecessary fake news about China. Thank you posting such a beautiful video.
My pleasure!
Pascal, you forgot to talk about the fact that China's economic growth is predicted to be around 6% because one country is trying all evil means to pull down its growth in all aspects...
As a current teacher in China who grew and got educated in Hong Kong, I really appreciate Pascal's summary on China in 2021. At the end, this is a country with the 2nd largest population and the 2nd largest economy. So there are just millions of things happening here. You have pointed out all the important challenges and achievements China had in this year. Therefore, I'm happy to see your optimistic predictions of China and let us all witness its development.
It is interesting to see that Pascal noticed nuclear. Xi actually issued a national medal to a senior researcher (one of the two) who worked a lot on nuclear energy and contributed significantly on a new nuclear power plant based on a graphite moderated gas-cooled technique that will operate soon.
Thanks for adding that comment!
Thanks for sharing! A bird's eye summary of a year in China by someone deeply knowledgeable is a blessing.
Wouldn't it be incredible for all the rest of us to also have a government that makes long term plans and commitments, sticks to them, and consistently shows positive results?
Thx
Yes, of course. But it’s just wishful thinking for where I am now 😕 We will have a by election soon for mayor, but 2 corrupt representatives are our candidates 😑
If you are in a democratic country. Forget about long term planning. Thats the reason why US is exporting this ideology to keep all the gov in check.
Thanks so much for concluding China's challenges and accomplishments this year. I love your content! I wish you happy holidays!
Thanks Herman!
China did extremely well in handling the Covid pandemic compared to the West and USA.

China adopted the five year plan from USSR.
really great video! I follow you for more than 6 months. wish more people see your video! thanks for your effort and view!
So nice of you!
Thank you for your review. This has given me a better understanding of some of the decisions made by China in the past year. China's challenges and achievements expertly explained in 30 minutes, well done.
Thanks
Thank you. You have summer up nicely all the major problems China faced in 2021 and logically explained and forecast a brighter horison for the country.
Agreed. Many Chinese tend to be optimistic and look forward to a bright future ahead. However, many Westerners are increasingly pessimistic and tend to have a gloomy outlook of the future.

brilliant round-up and analysis; china is the most exciting space to watch. thank u will need to watch this episode several times as so much squeezed into this segment/
Love your content Pascal! Subbed and regards from Singapore!
Awesome, thank you!
Another great video Pascal.
amazing report Pascal, as complete as wide its the analysis 👍💥💯
Thanks Joan!
thanks you!, so professional explaining hard topics! 🙏
I have been watching your well crafted, honest, & educational videos about China. I just subscribed. Good luck to reach 50,000. ✌
Thanks Abi!
I personally want to see China invented an earthquake detector device and also the successful launch of their digital currency at the upcoming winter olympic game !
I think Xiaomi has an earthquake detector app in their phones already. Looking forward to CBDC launch too
Thanks for that, I needed some encouragement to stay invested and you have given me that.
On specific stocks, things can be very different, so be careful. Especially delisting from US is a trend I expect in 2022 and beyond.
Wow this is very good news for me & for the other perhaps and thank you very much!
Welcome!
Hi Pascal, thanks for sharing your views. It's good to hear personal experience from someone who has worked and lived for more than a decade in China. Your personal business and living experience in both the western and eastern world qualify you as a competent commentator. I especially appreciate your balanced views. Well done and congratulations. Please keep sharing your comments. They are very interesting. More people should listen before they form their views on the many interesting topics you have shared.
Thanks for video and summary, the world need a lot of good and positive views and thinking to make a better outlook and work together.
Well done! Really appreciate! Wish more people watch your video to learn about China.
Thank you very much!
Goedendag ❤️
Thanks Pascal.
Invaluable information.
Fingers Crossed.
Fingers crossed!
Really appreciate your candid review of the problems China have. It's so rare to watch something like this these days, since when it comes to china you get either western fake news or Chinese propaganda but very rarely anything in between. Thanks for a calm and well-thought summary.
As an overseas Chinese who's been abroad for 10 years, i'd say the PR was the the biggest grief for me, since it's always kind of "in my face", how many state media just fail to see some of the things they say sounds like to a western audience. It feels like they had a good hand yet they squandered it. The only guy I think who does it well is Eric Li, but he's more of a business guy.
To be fair, English is really different from Chinese, so to be able to speak it fluently and articulate well-thought arguments at the same time is very demanding for the average Chinese person to say the least. But if there's one thing about China, is that it's been better-than-average at delivering miracles, so I'm cautiously optimistic.
And of course there's always non-official youtube channels like daniel dumbrill or cyrus janseen.
Thanks
I share your sentiments regarding China's PR department, it clearly needs an improvement of sorts. Just take CGTN for example, it's an English-language Chinese media, but it has a difficult time convincing Western audiences. Many Westerners hardly believe what Chinese media says, even though they often quote data and statistics on their videos. This shows that CGTN's approach is just not effective. Whereas Western propaganda is very effective, almost everyone blindly believe what Western MSM says about China, even when it's unsubstantiated by proof.
If you think Eric Li does a good job for CCP PR then in my opinion you are wrong. Unless he has changed recently. Same goes for daniel dumbrill and cyrus janseen. The PR is getting worse with CCP now actively undermining western, values, beliefs, culture and history. This is not just rolling it back western influence but destroying it. If China wants to compete in this arena then start making films, TV programs, fashions and other cultural things that appeal to non Chinese. Then you will beat America at their own game.
@@Andy-P _"The PR is getting worse with CCP now actively undermining western, values, beliefs, culture and history. This is not just rolling it back western influence but destroying it."_
Perhaps it's a global trend revealing that Western values and beliefs just *aren't universal* after all, at least to the rest of the developing world. It's a combination of the *Red Scare* (fear of communism) and the *Yellow Peril* (fear of Asians overrunning the West) that's fueling anti-China sentiment today. Since the 19th Century, many Westerners have grown comfortable with the notion of Western dominance, so much such that the very thought of a *non-Western, non-Liberal Democratic* country like China surpassing the United States someday is simply too frightening for many Westerners (but not all) to fathom.
This is evident from the fact that many Western institutions of democracies are seemingly crumbling and imploding upon themselves, without any input from China, so they try all sorts of ways to pin their failings of their democratic institutions onto China that's all.
@@Andy-P you seem to be suggesting westernizing is good.
Great info about China's goals.
Thank you Mr. Coppens providing a broader view about situation in China.
My pleasure
Good work Pascal! Thank you.
Many thanks!
Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
It would be interesting if Coppens could share the demographics of his followers. This is because he should be talking to and opening the eyes of the Americans and the westerners who are subject to a skewed unfair picture of China. So if his followers are predominantly Asians he is not going to impact the world view of China.
Thanks for the great question! As of today, for the lifetime of my channel, here are the stats:
USA: 18,6%: Malaysia: 15,4%; Singapore 8,8%; Canada: 7,3%; Australia 5,5%; India 5,1%; U.K. 3,8%; Indonesia 3,1%; Hong Kong 3%; Philippines 2,7%; Brazil: 2,2%; Mainland China 1,4%: Germany 1,3%; Taiwan 1,3%; Netherlands: 1,2%; Thailand 1%. All other countries below 1%.
Some observations:
- Half of my followers are from Western countries, and over one-third from native English speaking countries. I have no idea how many overseas Chinese make up that audience in these countries, but from the comments it is not the majority.
- My own home country Belgium is 0,7%, so reaching a global audience.
- Note sure what 1,4% from China means, unless that is Chinese with access to Google in China not on VPN?? Are these Chinese in the world that have put their country of origin on Google as 'China'? Anybody an idea?
- Taiwan is mentioned separately, which is strange for Google as only countries are visible as geographies.

Awesome thank you!
Coppens. you are amazing and very insightful. 2021 is indeed a year of in-depth finishing. For China, 2022 is a new beginning, the beginning of a new century.
Yes, 2021 is a year of crisis. But crisis is opportunity to make big change. I believe Chinese leaders are smart enough to use crisis to push through changes that would be more difficult during normal time. So crisis is good for China.
Welcome to the Asian century ❤️🔥💥
Hi Pascal, Thaks you for the great videos. Can you please make a video on the Chinese pharmaceutical industry? Is anything exciting happening in this industry?
The *world's first inhaled form of COVID-19 vaccine* was unveiled at the 5th Hainan International Health Industry Expo 2021 in south China's Haikou City on November 12, 2021.

Thanks for suggestion.
Oh yes China phama industries are going to be huge, especially becoz of the pandemic. A population of 1.4b domestically there are huge demand and thus more $$$ will pour into it. If you know China well, China doesn’t produce in small amount. India current leading position will suffer.
Common Prosperity is not propaganda. It is a change in society for common good. It is about the collective. It is a cornerstone of what socialism is. There's no doubt about the intent and targeted outcomes. The only concern is how successful it will be. Not questioning the policy itself, but whether the Chinese people will respond collectively, uplifting a wide cross-section of the population, not through direct Government intervention, but through private efforts and initiatives. If it happens, it will set a new high water mark for human society.
Agreed. I will make a video about it later. Hope you will like it.
This is the most informative and balanced interpretation about China's development and policies. Your understanding about China is, way ahead of western politicians and media.
Another great video from Portugal
Thought Mr Pascal said he’s from Belgium
@@GK-wp6er hi now is from Belgium
@@CarlosAlberto-eo8tc 👌🙏
I am from Belgium
Impressive unbiased analysis and interpretation, I'd I may suggest a couple of points. The have advanced their plans of 2030+ to 2020+, especially in energy.
Are there any plans for retraining of middle-aged and young workpeople to changes in economies like production and communication?
Interesting insights. Thanks, Pascal.
Glad you liked it!
Well done Pascal! What a 2021 Summary of China comprehensively highlighting what's been happening in the country and the impact on the world. It would be good if you could do another video about Common Prosperity initiated by President Xi in late summer of 2021. Thank you.
Will do that
I was a subsriber, but found out I had to subsribe. again today.
Welcome back! Very strange that your subscription disappeared.
Great analysis. I agree with you.
Thanks!
Great video!
Thanks!
I am an ordinary Chinese, my mother always tell me that when she was young, she didn't think she would be able to live such a happy life in her old age. I see every day, every year how China is improving, I believe that 98% is definitely correct!
Thanks Li.
Nice summary. Thumbs up here
Thanks!
like the summary. gonna buy the book next year.
Thank you for your informative videos. I like the factual approach. Personally, I am not surprised with Biden's continuation of the hostile approach towards China. I think it is less about Biden and more about the American institutions bent on taking a hostile approach. IMO, not much about China being aggressive it is more to contain China unless China bows to the West. Yes, China has PR problems because PR is never a Chinese domain even culturally.
As far as PR is concerned, I do believe China could improve without having to bow to the West. It's about more storytelling instead of pure fact stating. The story can have the same content and truths.
That was really interesting!! Thank you. Now we will see what will happen. I hope the Americans don't decide to solve their problems militarily, as they have a history of doing. China is, and will be continue to, doing well.
I hope so too.
That’s actually one of my biggest concerns, that they would force China’s hands militarily.
Thanks for this interesting video. I am optimistic too.
Great!
This is probably the best video that I have watched.
I think that Pascal Coppens is an excellent presenter.
He talks sense.
He is well organized.
I give him top grade.
Thanks for the cheering!
This is a good assessment.
Thanks
Wonderful analysis
Thanks
You own the closest interpretation to the Chinese native policy and what Chinese people think. Very accurate, good research work you have done.
Thanks
thank you, Pascal! that was another illuminating one from you about the real China and how she ticks.
Thx!
Cool~
Good job pascal👍
Thanks!
Very Gud analysis 👍👍
Glad you liked it
An extremely well good report on China! Concise, well-laid out, informative. It gives us great insight into the way China is governed, a country so forward looking. Will done Pascal
China creates a lot of wealth for farmers like Liziqi ❤️🔥💥
Honestly speaking, Liziqi *isn't really a farmer* in the tradition sense, she's more of a vlogger and an Internet celebrity. But more Chinese farmers are indeed employing 5G technologies to help sell their produce to larger markets elsewhere in China.
Wow Good Analysis
Thanks!
I am glad to see Pascal being so optimistic about a China, so maybe I am not overly optimistic after all!
That is funny. Thanks.
Do you think China will overcome the challenge of advanced semiconductors?
See you in at least two to three years.
Researches on production processes for carbon, silicon carbide (SiC), gallium niride (GaN), graphene and photonic semiconductors by various Chinese research institutes, companies and universities are ongoing.
All players in the semiconductor fields are on equal footing as far as their status in next gen semiconductor researches are concerned - early stage status
Although Taiwan companies are at the cutting edge when it comes to wafer fabrication, humans are approaching the theoretical limit to just how small we can manufacture silicon chips. Beyond this theoretical limit, scientists are turning to alternative semiconductor materials, from silicon-based chips to carbon-based chips (made of graphene/carbon nanotubes). Carbon-based chips offer several advantages over silicon chips, such as _better conductivity, lower power consumption, better heat dissipation, 3D stacking._ China has made several breakthroughs in manufacturing carbon-based chips.
Video: _China's carbon-based chips enter mass production_ ruclips.net/video/99OCVE65lRo/видео.html
Furthermore, silicon chips are a well-established industry dominated by Taiwan companies and USA, and difficult for mainland China to break into (especially with US sanctioning chips to Chinese companies) whereas carbon chips is a new industry without U.S sanctions (since the tech doesn't exist yet). If the mainland is successful with carbon chips, China can potentially "leapfrog" the slowly dying silicon chip industry and establish a foundation in carbon chip manufacturing.
I made a video 8 months ago about it. ruclips.net/video/ghQ7Xq3m0k4/видео.html
@@Shenzhou. 中国现在已经在研发相关的新技术，有可能实现弯道超车，现在的芯片也的确到达了极限。
It is good to hear the optimistic view of China’s economy. I suspect the transition from a construction economy to a service one is going to be impacted by the population reduction. The reduction is going to be difficult but in the long run beneficial, if and this is the big if, the CCP can get its internal corruption under control.
China solve's all it's problems so intelligently and honestly, keeping in mind the ecosystem as well as the economic conditions of the masses of the world. Since they alway's have a better and moderately prosperous, noble, unselfish vision they deserve great respect. Their not interested in militarily occupying other countries to rob them of resources, they take care the countries that they do trade with. This is a very humane attitude and the world appreciate's this a lot.
China doesn't have a tax system like the West to begin with. So she has to find ways to redistribute wealth to the less fortunate. One of the better ways is to build an attitude of giving back to society and it has to start from young. Of course not everyone is born generous and compassionate so there should be policies and procedures to make the redistribution happen.
Why not develop a tax system similar to the west. Telling rich people to give to the poor is very worthy but overall the sums are so small compared to the population what difference will it make
You think the US has a good tax system? Are you kidding me? Most Americans cannot afford college education, cannot afford healthcare, cannot afford buying their own homes, and cannot afford to retire.
@@rider2731 Best stick to what the CCP propose then
@@rider2731 Stick with what the CCP proposes then and just get the rich to give to the poor
@@Andy-P With the rapid development of China's economy, a large number of rich people have appeared quickly, but most of these rich people are not generous. The country needs to adjust step by step to make the rich become generous
well said
Thanks
Very objective observation and concise summary. Extremely informative. You did much better job than the Central Propaganda Department of CPC. Thank you for the great job.
A good "look back" at the year of China 2020 from Pascal. But he forgot to talk about decoupling and supplychain.
It will be interesting to see how CCP will regulate the big business and special interests in comperising to US "free market".
Who will create real improvements for their citizens and not only Buzz words?
Regionalization of value chains
Decoupling supply chains from China is a trend since 2020 for the West and since 2015 from China to decouple with the world on high tech. In 2021 it was more dual circulation strategy that made headlines, which I could have mentioned. Thanks for adding the topic.
If your competitors or enemies are criticizing something you do? Oh you gotta keep doing that…. Cuz you probably are on the right track. Lol
you really understand what's going on
Thanks
Western people who understand China, that's rare!
Thanks Fanny!
Tech laws are a big deal the Western countries too. Increasing integration of big tech with western internal security agencies like the CIA, FBI and NSA, among the many of other ones as well.
How come someone like Pascal Coppens who is with extensive knowledge about China's technology and social structure don't get chance to talk about China on mainstream media such as the CBC, BBC, and CNN? What are they trying to avoid?
The truth
To avoid real expert vs "the usual paid by those channel"
In Belgium and Netherlands, I am getting invited at times as most journalists covering China know me personally. But I would love to talk to CBC, BBC or CNN. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Maybe because Pascal is in the low countries? Most countries now have many China experts. UK has Martin Jacques and Kerry Brown among others. Sir Vince Cable doesn't claim to be an expert but talk positively in engaging with China. He says Taiwan is legally China's and China will be the worlds biggest economy / superpower.
@@Andy-P Has bbc interviewed Martin Jacques? I heard about how bbc distorted what Professor Deborah Brautigam said about China’s investments in Africa during a recent interview and she had to write a statement to clarify her views.
分析的很清晰！我对祖国的信心都不如您，实在是自愧不如
Do share what you are ashamed of.
The BIG CLEAN UP is Knowledge Based Economy video about CHINA that why able to attract many comments .Teacher Pascal Coppends is right about China :
* Moving from Quantity to QUALITY. China since 2013 has been moving up VALUE ADDED.
Constant 創新 eg Organise 一帶一路 ，Smart factories ,& Training of MANPOWER .
.* Take this pandemic crisis as an opportunity to DISTRIBUTE WEALTH.
*Plant trees in desert , Solar power ,Wind & Hydro power ,electric cars., CRH TRAINS , Aeroplanes.......
FDI inflow & Exports rising .Recently , 雲南 昆明 to Laos 萬象 CRH TRAIN running.Also Train to Nepal .
* China can get 8 % growth next after this BIG CLEAN UP . 🌈🌈
