CHINA has already surpassed usa in many important fields: 5G, 6G, AI, Super computing, Quantum-computing, Hypersonic missile technology, digital currency and digital payment systems, etc.

Agreed 🤝 with Prof. Krishore Mahbubani🌹 on Chinese specifically and\or Asians in general, we HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THINKING of the long terms as well as 4 the present times..I guess in politics it is called STRATEGICALLY PLANNING as in healthcare industry it is called TREATMENT'S PLANNING..However, since China as well as many other Asian's nations had been either at wars and\ or being colonized Bi's the West for years..Therefore, it took quite a long times for 🇨🇳 and other's Asians to rise up to the levels capable becoming "head-on collisions" in competition as Mr. President of 🇺🇸 had mentioned at the last virtual meetings with Mr. President of 🇨🇳..If 🇨🇳 and 🇷🇺 plus many Others had not bound together and staying STRONGLY against 🇺🇸.gov FAILING HEGEMONY PLANNING..Asians and the rest of the Worlds are doomed in catastrophic 💥 deadly WWW3 instead of the mildly pandemics of viruses..Love your analysis of world's politics and Peaceful Rises of 🇨🇳 in the 21st Century's with THOSE who have similar mindsets..🕊..

🤣🤣🤣👍

[@gmsnanu]

is 1 child policy a long term thinking example?

[@evalee3599]

Even on road side billboard advertising. While usa is still plastering pictures with glue, the CHINESE billboards are 3D, where it can look like a dragon can ‘fly’ off the screen. No comparison. Take any 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Tier city in CHINA and compare it with the top cities in the usa and their is NO comparison.

[@exas4791]

Life or long-term philosophies of China and India, r different from that of the West. Therefore, sometimes all parties seem to be talking at cross-purposes.

KM’s logic is amazing. World’s No 1 needs to learn from World’s No 2 these and these. Should it be the other way round?

[@lisa.e5776]

Actually , Taiwan is no 1 among the world.

[@xfactor6099]

I think the USA also think long term. The long term thinking is done by the beaurocracy and think tanks. These bodies try as much as possible to keep politicians on the long term path. That's one really USA foreign policy rarely changes no matter what party is in power

[@longcimb]

How could u call.a free press when u dont even allow a politician to factually expressed himself or promoting a different model of controlled economy? Hypocrisy press and lying on many occasions...

[@rap3208]

The press is just a part of it. A politician won't ever factually express himself especially when it comes to china eclipsing the US because the people won't let them. The people will be outraged and the opponents of the politician will use that to topple the politician and take over. So, it is everybody in the US not wanting to listen to that kind of news, they won't allow it.

They absolutely tanked their demographics with their one child policy. Long term thinking my ass

Suggesting india to give up land is treason! Why can’t China give up… Kishore asks all other nations to kowtow in front of China, he should rightly called something worse than a Chinese stooge! While I respect him for several other ideas this is a red line for Indians. Keep away !

[@SThrillz]

I think India and China will find a way to resolve that peacefully and yes I think the best resolution for China will be to give that land to India. India and China have to make peace or they will both be destroyed together, they have much bigger fish to fry now that India too is pacing ahead.

[@BB-cf9gx]

If they actually thought long term they would realized that over the long haul if you keep screwing your customers with cheap and shoddy goods that will one trust and stop buying from them.

[@ayushc5704]

They would be well off by then and can shift to quality products. They have almost eliminated poverty and is providing great lifestyle to it’s people.

[@viveknaik001]

say that when you completely dump chinese goods out of your house.. i understand our need for better products but till the time we don't produce our products at prices cheap enough to be available to everyone.. we will be weaker in comparison.. they are just tapping the untapped market.. the high quality high end product were always meant for rich.. and created the class divide.. now everyone is buying what used to be a luxury

[@arkscrew]

Meanwhile indian products are worse than that. So we should look at improving our own quality. If you pay less money you are not going to get I phone quality.

[@ayushc5704]

@@viveknaik001 i agree India is developing fast even after all the global challenge for past few years but our federal structure slows down our growth .

[@ayushc5704]

@@arkscrew Indian products are not necessarily worse than that our supply was less but is increasing. It's just that they produce more objects so bad quality things catches our eye easily truth is best quality things like iphone tesla macbook everything is made in China today though alot is shifting to India that's why I say that i am optimistic about India's growth but not if youth in India keeps a close mind. We need to keep our heads low until we succeed.

[@evalee3599]

Has CHINA won? The good professor already knows the answer to that one. Shall I go on? In renewable energies CHINA has surpassed the entire ‘west’ combined. Not only in solar, wind, and hydro power generation; but also in the manufacturing of wind and solar power parts and equipment. Oh ya….we also reforested an area larger than most countries which helps take out the carbon dioxide and puts oxygen into the atmosphere. Does the empire and its colonies in western europe and japan still think it stands a chance in hell?? Well CHINA also has its OWN friends! Russia sells oil and gas to CHINA at huge discounts in the Ruble and the Yuan. And Saudi Arabia offered to sell its oil to CHINA in the Yuan. So as you can see t helps to have friends in high places. Toodles bitches!!
