I'm pro-China when it comes to the Hong Kong issue. The handover of Hong Kong happened on the 1st of July 1997, for crying out loud, after 156 years of British colonial rule. I also love the Chinese Vocational Education and Training Centers. I can't be the only one who thinks the Japanese and the Chinese are the only cultures left that are actually using their common sense.
I am not so sure about that. China in it's current form is nothing you'd want at your doorstep. The West has completely gone down the gutter, I agree. And you could also make the arguement that a positive change for the world might flow from China. But not from the system that they're currently building.
