Will China end up owning the World?

inhaling unmitigated pollution

That's funny, Australians pollute way more per capita than any Asian country (or almost any other country in the world) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_...er_capita#/media/File:GHG_per_capita_2005.png

Should we have more right to pollute per person and blame others for polluting simply because they have more population ?

Also if we don't export minerals to others for them to "pollute", we will drop to the bottom of first world country or even into seccond world.

We make money selling fuels to pollution, while polluting the most per capita, I actually think we are the real "bad guys" to pollution. Not that I mind - survival of the richest is my motto, just that I think we shouldn't be pointing fingers.

Saw headline that China is leading the way in GreenTech - particularly solar. If true, it's about time.

They're supposed to skip a couple of development stages when coming up so far behind. But the gas reserves from "their" South China Sea could fuel China's current consumption for over 100 years so ey... abundant resources and you get to project power if needed.

Or plant rice, drone work on a production line, inhaling unmitigated pollution, eating pets, looking after the parents like for ever .....

The parents part is fine by me... what with the three kids all raised Western style where they actually talk to you like you're their mate, asked to be paid for chores but won't be splitting the bills, ever!

With food, get use to having everything fried or dip in oil. Wait, that's what the Americans are giving us. Well there's the MSG to look forward to... If you think Coke makes your tongue dance.

Imagine being lucky enough to have a baby daughter... then killing it yourself because in your culture boys/men are more highly valued, and you can only have one child per couple. Imagine wrapping up a perfect new baby and throwing it in the trash. This has been going on for over 2000 years in China.

http://www.rfa.org/english/news/china/gender-01222015125826.html

It's resulted in a population imbalance of about 33 million more men than women in the adult population. How clever. What did they think would be the long-term result of widespread female infanticide?

Now today the Party have decided to go back to a two child policy. God help us. I despair at the sort of power the Party weilds now, due to its brainwashing of a population who are unaware of what's going on. The people are still lapping up everything Big Brother tells them.

Now with a renewed interest in population growth, maybe they can add to the pollution problem which they've handled so well.

One might say the ones that were killed were lucky. The ones that survived have not had a pleasant journey, trust me. Thankfully this is/has changed.

The men, particularly the older ones (over 50) are a disgusting waste of oxygen. They way they behave to their families (generalising) is really horrible. They gamble, cheat, lie, complete pigs really. This is NOT a nice culture. Sure there are some exceptions, but generally speaking, in my ten years here, there is not allot about this culture that's worth keeping. Toss it out and start again...there are many other examples of great Asian cultures with plenty of Chinese. The mainland is just plain rotten...

How do you see it playing out in the future? Are people desperate to leave, or they think it's all ok? Do you feel free to write stuff like this without Big Brother logging your every post?

It's a man's world, they love it. Where else is it acceptable to lie, steal, cheat, extort, gamble, smoke, ***** around and generally behave like a college frat student when you're 60?

They don't want me here, they'll be glad when we all leave (expats).

Not to be too nosy Canoz, but what are you doing there ?

Sounds like Wall St to me, hehe.

But I do agree China is one of the most unpleasant Chinese country to be in. Singapore or Taiwan are great places where foreigners are mostly loved. HK maybe 20 years ago, not anymore. But China is where they money is and of course people and business will tolerate anything to make money, hence why mainland is so popular.

You wouldn't be there unless for you the good aspects clearly outweighed the bad. What are the good aspects?

Where did you get "for 2000 years" from? Only been since the 70s under the Communist Party.

They're correcting that now since it occured to them only allowing the rich to have two kids just can't save China's aging population and workforce (and the military readying for expansion and glory )

Maybe you, being an expat, only hang out with the rich and spoilt upper crust?

I knew a Chinese International student back in the days... she was just insane. I still don't know what the guy saw in her...

It's referenced too, which is odd. (200, I guess).

I'm assuming that the 33 million population difference means that roughly that same number of female babies were murdered. They are different, that's for sure.

Don't worry about anyone else, Mrs Chong. Just look after yourself and bugger everyone else.

Rape the system. Unbelievable.

I don't think organic baby formula is going to counteract the health demise of those babies who are breathing in toxins and drinking contaminated water.

We've actually got two people in Australia stocking up on formula for us. Joe is one of them. We have enough to get through until we get to Australia, then once we're there we'll have to scour the countryside for our own after our stash runs out.....

Little Austin consumes about a can a week now, they should limit sales to two cans per customer.

That's different, for obvious reasons (I still have no idea why you'd live in such a horrid place).

You're telling me there's not a single Chinese comapny who can be trusted to produce a very basic, 'clean' baby food product?

You can bet the Party and their cronies would have an uninterrupted supply. Along with all the best fresh produce from Australia.
