all you stated is fact and allow me to add that 91%
of China's total population does not know the earth is round....odd as that is,it is fact. Other than massive
buildings and streets most of China is well behind 3td
world standards and knowledge.

Agree. We have created an image of China that far exceeds their actual power. Our economy is nine times larger. Chinese GDP per capita is $860 compared to our $34,940. China has one of the highest foreign debt amounts ($149.8 billion owed to foreign investors and payable in hard currency) in the world. They are 4th behind Brazil, Russia, and Mexico and just ahead of Argentina. China accounts for only 3.18% of the world's exports compared to the US with 15.44%. In fact China is in 10th place behind the Netherlands, Italy, and Canada.

Where does that 'fact' come from? Source please. And what poll can be that accurate in a country of over 1 billion that has so little knowledge and sophistication as you say?

The last time you were in China was_? Which provinces? For how long? Meeting with _?

As you can tell I am skeptical when reading comments like yours. This is your chance to back them up or please don't spill that kind of stuff around here...
