China's influence on the world

The world never stops spinning, so there has been changing in everything in every minutes. China is also one of the best examples.

According to "Eight ways China is changing you world", Angus Foster indicates that China has been caught by people from all over the world. Many of them are focusing on China by following international news on China, especially high politics that is going to have a major change in paramount leaders or so-called the Central Politburo. Apart from domestic politics,  In addition, a magnitude of foreigners has started learning Chinese (Mandarin) language because it become more and more important in global economy in recent year.

China normally takes charge in significant issues in international affairs, including international politics. For example, China insists that the United Nations or other international forces should not intervene the current civil war in Syria. Because of the permanent membership in UN Security Council, China usually objects the resolution on intervention. This is its strong position of non-intervention or being threat against other nations. However, China has become a risk toward the United States as many academics and analysts predicted. 

Looking back to world history, America rose to the superpower at the same time of Soviet Russia's leading role in global politics. It was post-World War II period. Before the USA and the USSR, the United Kingdom and the French Republic had ruled more than half of the world as imperialists about a century. Hence, it is not strange whether China will become a superpower as the only one or one of the multipolar system. The rising China also benefits other countries and their people since the large number of China's population boosts global economy. The two examples in the article are travelling and studying abroad especially in the western countries or English-speaking nations. Besides, more open economy at this moment stimulates higher level of consumption in all economic sectors.

  1. Cee's analysis sounds right to me. I don't see the rise of a modern, powerful and developed China as a risk to other nations. On the contrary, it is another major contributor to economic growth for the whole world as it both produces and consumes goods and services.

    I think that the political and social development will also continue away from the unjust and disastrously deadly ways and thinking of Mao and the old-style communists towards the greater democratic and free society that seems to be necessary for capitalism and economic growth. The Chinese people will want more freedom, more justice, more knowledge, more open politics and more democracy as their lives improve, and their leaders will have to allow these things, even if they hate the idea.

  2. First,in 2015, the Chinese population is expected about 1300 million people. In other word, we will see Chinese around the world.
    Second, Chinese people consume pork about 50.8% of the pork product in the world.They also eat fish about 32.5% of the fish products in the world. In other word, the world market are made by Chinese. It also means China control the world economy.
    Finally, we choose find more Chinese friends.

    However, China is one of countries I want to visit because Chinese nature have been conserved. It is really beautiful. I have not decided to visit there because I am unbearable their rest room. If Chines renovate them, I will immediately make the decision.

    Sometime, Communist might gain much advantage to China.
