Sounds similar to Mexican influx in the US, except China's economy is much larger than Russia's.

Except the biggest difference of all, (if the article is to be taken at face value) is that the Chinese there are not assimilating, while all our immigrant groups are assimilating quite well. The rate of inter-marriage is relatively very high, and that is just one measure of assimilation.

What a howler!
