Understanding China - Face to Face with Economist Keyu Jin

The relationship between the world's two largest economies, the US and China, has rarely been more tense. China's new Ambassador in Washington Xie Feng has admitted this is a time of "serious difficulties and challenges", but insists he wants to put relations between the two nations back on track.
And one person who may have some insight into how to do that is Economist and Author Keyu Jin - whose latest book is "The New China Playbook - Beyond Socialism and Capitalism".
The Associate Professor at the London School of Economics was born in China, educated in the United States and now works between London and Beijing, and explains to Juliet Mann how her background has given her a unique perspective on China’s role in the world, and why the West still needs to improve its understanding of her home country.

A very brillliant, beautiful lady, a teacher with rare "objectivity," scientific objectivity, on the issue of the "Chinese characteristics" of the Chinese economy. Indeed she has qualities of leadership--strength of soul and extraordinary knowledge of pragmatic governance. CNN should invite her for an interview, so that Americans can better understand the real China, as opposed to the narrow view fed us by our elites, who fear China because they have no knowledge of China.

[@tubbietubby]

I agree with everything you said, except that I don't think any U.S. mainstream media, such as CNN & Fox, would invite her for an interview. Why would American politicians bother getting any truths out there to the American people? They need a common bipartisan enemy in order to shift the focus away from its own domestic problems. And the best target for that is China. The U.S. government is a corporation & military industrial complex fed and lobbied entity that thrives on warmongering. It would do anything to keep the uneducated uneducated and biased. Just as Professor Sachs said in Piers Morgan's interview "I know a lot of these congressmen. They are not very intelligent..."

Recently, people in Shanghai and Shenzhen have discovered that their personal pensions have plummeted after they joined the so-called nationally coordinated pension program. Hong Kong is also on the radar of the red regme. Since Beijing imposed a comprehensive National Security Law on Hong Kong in 2020, there has been a massive exodus of Hong Kong residents. These people have suffered huge financial losses. Many have had their pension savings withheld. The Chinese Foreign Ministry announced in January 2021 that China would no longer recognize the use of the British National Overseas Passport BNO as an identification document. This move directly resulted in Hongkongers who moved to the UK on BNO visas being unable to withdraw their retirement savings.

​@@wanderingfido China’s $23 trillion local debt mess is about to get worse. A line of empty shops in Hegang, on March 31, 2023. The heavily indebted city was forced to undergo unprecedented financial restructuring. BLOOMBERG . Goldman Sachs Group estimates China’s total government debt is about $23 trillion, a figure that includes the hidden borrowing of thousands of financing companies set up by provinces and cities. Unlike a corporate debt restructuring, or a municipal bankruptcy in the U.S., a fiscal restructuring in China doesn’t imply creditors must take losses on what they’re owed. Problems are evident in other cities as well. Shangqiu, a city of 7.7 million people in China’s central Henan province, made headlines recently after almost shutting down its only bus service. In Wuhan and Guangzhou, proposed cuts to pensioners’ medical benefits prompted rare street protests earlier this year. Civil servants in wealthy cities like Shanghai are reportedly having their pay slashed. In Guizhou province, officials have begged Beijing for a bailout. Diya, a 33-year-old singer and music teacher who asked to be identified by his stage name, moved to Hegang two years ago from Shanghai - a place, he said, where “even if I try my best and work 24 hours a day, I won’t be able to make enough money to become rich or own a home.” He can now afford to own three properties in the city, including his current home, a 50-square-meter third-floor walk-up apartment for 40,000 yuan - about 1% of the cost of a similarly sized place in Shanghai. Outside the city’s largest hospital, a middle-aged orderly wearing green scrubs and a mask said her employers unilaterally changed her work contract from a government-run medical facility to a third-party vendor, reducing benefits like paid overtime for working on holidays. Her monthly wage of 1,600 yuan ($228) had been delayed by more than 10 days every month since late last year. “I’m upset about the situation,” said the woman, who asked not to be identified in order to talk freely about her work conditions, as she pushed a wheelchair loaded with flattened cardboard boxes to an outdoor recycling point. “Everything is so expensive. I can barely get three square meals a day.” Every day, a group of aging coal workers dressed in worn-out military parkas gather from dawn at a Hegang roadside. Shovels in hand, they hope to get work for the day loading coal onto trucks and trains. One of them, Zhang, said she can earn 100 yuan, or around $15, on a good day. But more often, she’s lucky to get just 10 or 20 yuan for “exhausting” work. “We have no subsidies, no pension,” said Zhang, 66, who asked to be identified by her surname. “I won’t retire unless I’m physically no longer able to work.”

If China was aiming to be peaceful, why would they build aircraft carriers? Those are designed to project military power abroad, so as a defensive system, they are quite limited.

If China was really committed to being good to all people, would they not abide by international rulings on the invalidity of the Nine Dash Line?

In September 2022, China's National Health Commission held a press conference to brief its work on seniors since November 2012. Data show that China's senior population over 65 years old reached 191 million in 2020, accounting for 13.5% of the total population. We doubt that the ratio of 13.5%, not 14%, was carefully crafted by the staff because reaching 14% would mean that officially, China was declared to be an aged society. At the same time, the National Health Commission predicted that around 2035, China's senior population aged 60 and above would exceed 400 million, accounting for more than 30% of the population, i.e. entering the super-aged stage. .

Largest the listing wave in history . $1.71 Billion Foreign Capital withdrawn in China. This phenomenon can trigger a ripple effect When people see many others selling off and cashing in their holdings. It psychologically impacts them and this effect is amplified. A lackluster recovery in China's economy is prompting investors to change their strategies. Not only are foreign investors pulling out more money from China's stock market, flocking to other major Asian markets instead, but shareholders of Chinese listed companies are also cashing in by reducing their holdings. Moreover, China's A-share market is witnessing its largest delisting wave in history. Multiple indicators suggest that the Chinese stock market has entered a bear market. On June 6, China's main A-share index fell sharply again following a decline the previous day. The Shanghai Composite Index fell by 1.15%, dropping below the 3200 point mark, hitting its lowest level since January 13. 90% of stocks declined that day, with industries like electronics, semiconductors, power, military, and sensors suffering the most, led by a drop in Apple concept stocks. Luxshare Precision, a key Apple concept stock, fell by 7.34%, GoerTek Inc. by 6.85%, and Shenzhen Everwin Precision Technology by a staggering 18.92%. Meanwhile, foreign capital continued to withdraw; on June 6, foreign investors sold off 1.08 billion yuan (approximately 151 million USD) via the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect, a key cross-border channel between mainland China and Hong Kong stock exchanges.

The biggest surprise of all would be that China did not surpass America economically. China's population is 4.7 times that of America. Educationally, both quantitatively and numerically, there is no way under the sun that China cannot surpass America. In the 19 70s and '80s, Japan with labor force size half that of America did so well economically that America pulled out all stops to essentially destroy the Japanese economy. Now we look at China with China's obsession of higher education, and China's social mandate to raise the standard of living for all Chinese people, there is no way that China will remain smaller economically and militarily than America. America, like Great Britain, has seen its time in the Sun. Lack of competition worldwide was America's Good Fortune. China will not compete blindfolded and with one hand tied behind its back in order to allow America to continue winning.

Wonderful interview. Great smart lady. Represent the new China. Hope she can use her talents to help China progress forward. Also, help more Chinese speak and write English. I feel only language can unite the East and West. And that language is English.

[@SamLee-em8hh]

Trust me, if you master chinese language, you IQ will be increased 50+ at least.

[@kamilatusovamisezivot8326]

Is it please possible to buy the book in China?

[@baller4life88]

I need to hear more from her so I can expand my view of China and even the US 👏 👏 👏

[@markcampbell7577]

Was the accusations of currency manipulation when China was raising the minimum wage as damaging as the appearance of buildings being destroyed.? It was an incredibly unfair accusation. We the UK and USA are resistant to increased minimum wage from a misplaced political ambition.

[@markcampbell7577]

We have businesses here that have such inexpensive financial power or support they don't sell anything. They show the product and recycle the product. They have no concern for selling products. They manufacture show and recycle without selling hardly anything.

[@markcampbell7577]

Half of the country is living at the local normal poverty line. Half of the population is living below poverty line. Which is the normal legal minimum wage under the minimum wage act. This means that the employer is supposed to pay at least enough to reliably pay the rent for one bedroom apartment local commute. The minimum wage is supposed to be enough to reliably pay the rent. This means one weeks pay is equal to one months rent for one bedroom apartment local commute this is a normal business practice and the employer is supposed to be held to the same standard. This today though is the median income.

Excellent

[@johnwhoo6194]

佩服她，不仅仅因为她的语言的流利，杰出口才，更因为她敢于说出来，为中国讲公道话，她受到的各种有形无形的压力一定非常巨大！有无数语言比她更好的华人二代，三代，根本不敢为中国说几句公道话，几乎没见过一个！

[@stevematthews4489]

Listening to this you would think the west just wants to stop China from being successful. No mention of China's military threats to Taiwan, the free navigation of the south China sea, or that the more economically successful they get, the more militarily threatening they get. I would agree that China's economic progress is remarkable, and it's people and the country are admirable, but China is still a totalitarian state, and anyone who criticizes them is threatened by the Chinese government. You can't just ignore the elephant in the room.

[@marklee8512]

1) China's military threats to Taiwan? Answer: Taiwan Island is part of China. China is warning separatists in Taiwan against treason, also preventing the US from interfering in its internal issues. 2) Free navigation in the SCS? How about the PLA frequently sending its military jets and naval ships to Florida Bay and areas along California? 3) Militarily threatening? Which country have hundreds of military bases around the world and regularly sends its military jets and naval ships thousands miles away from home soil? 4) Totalitarian state? It's none of your business, 90% of population supports the government, which is the highest approval rate in the world. And it's called metecrioracy, a system that is much better than democracy. 5) Those who criticize are threatened? You mean yourself? You are nobody, no one care anything about you. Are you following too much Western MSM? And most are not criticizing, they are lying and accusing China of committing what it didn't do. 6) Elephant in the room. Elephant generally is a not dangerous animal. By comparison, hyena is more of a concern.

[@timeseeker-op8zg]

You must be ignorant not to know Taiwan is the province of China. Compare the the past century of track record, the western nation especially the Anglo-Saxon brough many suffering throughout the developing countries without a doubt. Accusing China being the aggressor is the standard narrative of the MSM. either you are being brainwashed or you are their shill.

[@timeseeker-op8zg]

You are mistaken, America is the totalitarian imperialistic country that is messing up the world big time for decades.

[@slly4276]

China’s military presence in the SCS is mainly defensive. 80% ofChina’s trade passes through the SCS and a blockage on the strait of Malacca will strangle its trade. It’s a region where various countries like Vietnam, The Phillipines, Brunei and even Taiwan lay their claims on. Yes there are disputes but these nations generally are able to find ways to negotiate without escalating into huge conflicts. Best US stays out of this region which is none of their business. For centuries China , India and the countries around were able to live in harmony long before the colonialists arrived . When the imperialists arrived, they adopted a divide and rule strategy , taking not only their resources but importing cheap labour from India and China to work in the mines,shipyards and plantations. When they left they leave behind divisions among the people . History will repeat itself if one does not learn from it. USA and UK have 900 military bases around the world and yet they are the countries, least to be invaded by others due to its geographical locations ,surrounded by miles and miles of water. So one should questions why its military presence everywhere in the world while China and Russia have only 35 bases between them, China has about 4or 5. US have bases surrounding China. From Darwin, Pine Gap in Australia to thePhillipines,Okinawa,the straits of Taiwan , South Korea and recently getting Japan to re arm . I beg to question why?

[@cheekiat8362]

USA is a terrorist state. USA have killed millions of ppl n destroyed many countries. The world will b at peace without USA....

Oh girls, thanks! What an avalanche of lights and remarkable reading of the facts. Healthy intelligence must be nourished, so that the will can be affirmed in empathy!

[@TonyOei]

Thanks for sharing. Very smart Keyu Jin. Hope more interview with her in the near future.

[@fredtan1506]

Genghis conquered Chinese empire. He subconsciously abandoned Mongolian nomadic culture/way of life, was assimilated (he sort of got absorbed) into Chinese culture/civilization (sedentary) further strengthening, spreading Chinese civilization.

[@PhiloSurfer]

China is the only country in the world that expanded its territory not by invading others, but by being invaded by others.

Her skill in making the predator wolf CCP sound like a lamb is extraordinary.

Talk, does not mean much. Intention and sincerity is important. When engaging China from the position of Strength will not work

A fuller China is one of the major ways to avoid another human catastrophe. Smearing China is, by contrast, one of the major ways to plunge into the pathetic abyss.

[@chuzai2156]

Jin Liqun & Jin Keyu, So how objective is her opinion, Considering her father is a ministerial-level financial cadre.

The only solution to plastic pollution is not to manufacture any halogenated vinyl or halogenated carbon. This was the sim of the chemical weapon manufacture treaty and EPA mission under treaty enforcement and obligations..

[@hendro030290]

I will love to see her have debate with peter zeihan...

[@georgecherian6520]

This is a very good interview to show the real changes that have happened in China during the last few decades. Let us hope that this will change the Western view of China as only a communist country and they cannot progress.

[@bigbang7722]

Dr. Jin is from red nobility...Her father was the Deputy Minister of Finance.

[@yatchoychu3146]

China is Evolving since the Economic Policies introduced by Deng Xiao Ping in 1979 and further accelerated by Successive Presidents.

[@hjiang3828]

As younger economist with little knowledge regarding China, lecturer Jin she needs more self-conciseness, self-constraint

[@user-vq8by7ku7e]

When Sparta felt Athens might become more powerful, they went to war. History may not repeat, but it all too often rhymes. The Thucydides trap is playing out now, but Keyu Jin chose not to believe it is very real and she is in the mental wilderness trying to push against the tide?

[@georgesibley7152]

the Thucydides trap is a western way of thinking, the problem for China is that they recognise the west pushes for this they want a better way, if the USA can accept that China wants a win win scenario then the world will get better,

[@siewkeekhoo125]

👍🌻

[@infei5389]

I guess that Jin pays more attention to economics. The current Ukrainian war may be pushing against the tide. The purpose of the book "The Thucydides Trap" was to avoid it. Now it's a chip war after the trade war. How much can USA do for decoupling or cold war II? Will USA initiate a battery war before it's too late? Remember G7 just criticized the non-market economy without mentioning any country?!
