Martin Jacques is a visionary academic who is very knowledgeable of World History and has a brilliant job in his research on China. He is objective in his analysis of the paradigm shifts in geopolitics and geoeconomics towards China. Western political leaders and China skeptics who do not heed his profound contribution and disregard the need to adapt to China's rise in their dealings with China will have much to lose. The "rule of the mob" which has been causing the mayhem in HK for the last five months starkly shows that the HK governance is too incompetent, exacerbated by the constitutional "Two Systems" , which is flawed.

Awesome lecture Martin. I wasn't amused by those 2 questions from the audience, but your answers were brilliant and right on point. I wonder if they could understand it at all.

[@jyashin]

Nah, the two questions were pertinent. The first question deals with China's relationship with its neighbors, which is going to be hugely relevant for China's place in the world order. The second question about Hong Kong is important in determining how China will tackle lingering old-world order issues. However, both did come from misguided preconditions. China is much closer to ASEAN than the US will ever be, and thus despite US rhetoric, East Asia has made a decided pivot towards China. Hong Kong is ultimately a structural issue, not an ideological one, which means the solution must be viewed with a different lens.

[@saikokandy]

This is too tough for them, cuz it has turned their way of thinking thoroughly, especially the part towards China

[@wyodragon8492]

The Chinese philosophy on its relations with other countries is one based on hard work, cooperation and trade. This philosophy benefits both China and the other countries. China aims to create a community of shared future. This is unlike the behaviour of the USA which bases and has always based its economic development on stealing at the point of its guns the resources and the products of other countries. USA has become a rich country, not because the US people are smart and hard working, but because they steal other countries by using brute force. It is the same behaviour that the Romans and the Mongols used. But like the Romans and the Mongols, the US empire, that has been created and nurtured on the blood on tens of millions murders, and the destruction of the livelihood of hundreds of millions people will come to an end.

In another 2018 ranking reported by Washington Times (amp.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/jan/29/freedom-implies-that-individuals-have-the-right-to/), HK was ranked #2. Tell us why they are protesting for "freedom" and pleading for the Americans, ranked #17 in the same Index, to help them? Fraser Institute Freedom index of Hong Kong in 2018 was ranked 8th with an 8.9 score. This year, 2019, HK is ranked 3rd, whereas UK is 8th, and US is 17th. (worldpopulationreview.com/countries/freest-countries/) Also, HK is ranked #1 by www.heritage.org/index/ranking (whereas UK is #7, and US is #12) this year. Sure looks like the protesting HKers have been conned into "surrendering/destroying" Hong Kong's competitive advantage? One has to be an idiot to believe that this is about "freedom".😂 2. Only system and people who learn and adapt will survive. HK has wasted 22+years, despite many freedoms and special privileges granted under its SAR 1Country-2Systems, engaging in endless ideological and political fights, instead of solving real issues. They have made themselves increasingly irrelevant and uncompetitive, and now disreputable.

Martin made a comment about the loss of respect for the elites in the west. That is because the elites in the west have not been the best thinkers. Because of the nature of western politics, deep thinkers tend to shun being politicians. It can be a short term job where you must sell yourself to get elected. Then when in leadership, be prepared for public humiliation and criticism for trivial stuff. Those who make it to the top are usually not great thinkers or problem solvers, but good marketers of themselves and extremely thick skinned. So the loss of respect is understandable.

Here is a piece of history and news you will never hear from the MSM. A lot of people don't know but India is still occupying a piece of China as we speak. Indians never tired of reminding the Brits of their sin of colonialism, but Indians only hate it when they were at the receiving end of it. When the Brits left the subcontinent in 1947 and the new country India was created out of the polity left behind by the Raj, the new rulers of India look around and said to themselves 'Hey we can be the new imperial power in the block and we should continue the things the expansionist Raj was doing to its neighbors. And so in 1951, almost four years after the British has left, India finally creeped up to Tawang, South Tibet and invaded and annexed the place. Tawang is the birthplace of the Sixth Dalai Lama and home to a four hundred years old Tibetan monastery. In 1987 India make South Tibet a state and renamed it to the so called Arunachal Pradesh. AP is not recognized by any Chinese government. In 2009 AP is officially recognized by the United Nation as a disputed territory. Today South Tibet is restless and India knows it. This is the reason AFSPA (Armed Force Special Power Act) is imposed on AP. AFSPA gives the state to detain or kill anyone with impunity. It is a law meant to suppress dissent. AFSPA is imposed on area India deemed 'disturbed', such as South Tibet and Kashmir. Under AFSPA rape of Tibetan girls and women (which is rampant) by Indian jawans is not recognized as a crime. Here is a map published by the US National Geographic in 1912 clearly showing Tawang and South Tibet part of China. www.digitalcommonwealth.org/search/commonwealth:x633f939c Free South Tibet from India.

What I mean by this is because with all the latest technology in nuclear weapons, the misunderstanding that the Western elites are trying to sow with China will inevitably lead to a conflict with China so devastating for mankind, I highly doubt if humanity will survive it. If only the West could see that the rise of China is actually peaceful and instead of fighting against it, reconfigure itself to work with this new giant called China and it will bring about a new renaissance for all humanity. No more unnecessary wars. Continued development and eradication of poverty. Continued prosperity. A stable future for mankind. After all what are the things that truly matter to us in life? Is it being the center of the universe? Is it worth destroying everything and everyone that we truly love and care about? Does that improve the welfare of our personal lives? If only the West can let go peacefully. It is after all an inevitable change that will happen. There will only be two outcomes.

Talk about freedom if you can answer what responsibility/price you need to pay for it first.

[@taosmith695]

Very insightful talk. So many of his points I agree with, and especially the one regarding how declining powers fail to see their decline because they're still thinking in old paradigms.

[@Oksendal5]

@@Mukdener Well China has done the implementation very poorly. you can't un-executed an innocent man as happens in your country due to its corrupt one party system. Also I would say there is very little compassion on the main land. KZbin is full of awful event of people in struggle and not being helped by passers by.

I honestly feel that iut you just look at the gdp numbers you may see a rising China but integral strengths and soft power or even economic power under president tump and his administration America is still a super power in the world. Yet with the rising in economic, America will need to face the challenges of that rising power which you obviously see it now from the pandemics, also the infiltration and economic influence in other countries that China has. But this new world order with the rising China isn’t a righteous force to the world with this new rising country’s authoritarian regime and systematic hegemony. What’s more dangerous is, with this new world order under the lead of China, the freedom, the belief, the value, the culture, the tradition, even the way of life will fundamentally be changed in a bad way. This will not bring prosperity, security and peace to the world, instead it’s a damage to the west civilisations. America and the west must confront and repel this force.

You need to look at resources and supply chains where all these shift to decide whether it can survive. So it’s obvious if China lost its manufacturing power and lost its international market expanding, especially the us and Europe, it will be very difficult to survive. Plus it’s incomplete financial market system, aging population, and high pressure political hegemony nationwide, perhaps it’s not a optimistic sign!

[@isabellaliu8409]

Don’t forget that 11 vs 9, the 9 is under the mercy of tech bubble and the copies of the west invention. But their brands are monopoles in its own martlet while hugely expanding market share in the US and other western countries, it s also national government supports companies, you can see those companies equipped everything and resources available to monopoly in the world. With this integrated resource, it’s not a fair game from day one!

The BRI is a multi-decade project. It has barely even gotten off the ground. Understanding the project requires an understanding of long-term historical process that many Western observers have been conditioned to lack.
