Why do I need to be insure to jump into the topic discussing about China ? Do you wan to stick to the topic or want to talk your Philippine GDP by exporting cheap housemaids all over the world ?
Btw, I heard that Japan was the second largest economy in 80s as well, CNN and NY Time talked bout Yellow Peril III took USA assest. For example, Sony took over Columibia picture or a Japan business bought the Pebble Beach golf course. Even China now far from acquiring American business like Japan did in 80s, then look at Japan right now ? Are you fantasized or jut ignore to learn the history ?
By corrupting African leaders to invest in their countries ? Do you call that INVESTMENT ? Give me break with the way you fabricate and twist that term
I see Chinese rich elite so cute when they abandon China and go to Canada and USA for buying houses, having pregnancies and giving births there. So adorable ! Why smart people run away from the largest economy in the world to the second, the third, the fourth.....Are they dumb ? Why the rats abandon the ship so early ?
loool Calm down bro. Lets all have a meaningful/respectful discussion while agreeing to disagree respectfully without insult/personal attacks. It leads us to nowhere and just derails the thread at hand.
I slightly agree with your last point though, but then again, its not just China, all developing countries have middle class people who all wish/yearn to emmigrate/live and study in the west/U.S/Canada,Australia etc since we have by far the highest living standards/education/universities/environment/better healthcare etc. It will take time for other developing countries to match all these, just like Japan, they were once just like India, China, Turkey, Vietnam, Mexico, etc, but after they became developed , they dont have that fondness of everything western anymore, since they have already witnessed all that/havethe same or better living standards as we in the west/U.S today. Reason Japanese people tend to consume more of their own products and hardly travel outside their coutnry to seek for a better life. So give other developing countries time, i guess they will get there at one point as well.

I merely reacted to your clear arrogant post in belittling Filipinos because some work abroad as "maids". Who are you to put them down ? As if the standard of living in Vietnam is higher than the Philippines. The Filipinos have an economy that is greater than Vietnam's by $120 Billion. So why put down another person from a developing country?
Be more comprehensive in your analysis and don't resort to defamation, you lose any momentum in any discussion that way.
Regards.
I agree, Philippines is more developed/have higher living standard/bigger economically than Vietnam in all fields, so our Vietnamese friend here shouldnt be making fun of them IMO. He just needs to calm down, maybe some coffee will help
