Thread: New Chinese Leadership

Don’t expect reform from China’s new leaders - The Washington Post


Seems the story is that the new leadership is a swing back towards the Hardline old party leadership...


So what do you guys think ???

Yes, I'm afraid change won't come quite as quick or quite as notable as many would have hoped.
With just two regarded as reform-friendly to any extent, The other five will pretty much uphold Status quo or worse.

Sad really, China had a great opportunity this time to really take steps towards a more open and democratic society...

While not the outcome on a social level most in the west would have liked to see, not much will change. Western companies will still do ever increasing business in China because after all profit is what matters most. Pretty much status quo in that respect. More worrisome is how she may deal with international matters and disputes in the future. Time will tell.

The chinese populace (the majority of them) have become so westernized they would not stand for an attempted return to the old ways.
You would see a major civil war.

Order that extra PHIG now .

Money and prosperity will win out in the end.
