Hah, I just read this yesterday and was about to post, a really great article. Btw, this is his book that he wrote about America :
This is a really good article and I have to say I have to agree on Wang Huning's observations and thoughts, this is exactly how I have been thinking the last few years but for Indian political structure and policies after coming to the same conclusions about seeing the impact of liberals and the distance from the core values which is making US hollow from the inside.
So, now you are speaking on behalf of Chinese ordinary people?China is the ultimate contradiction - A communist country with a population that is so completely enamoured with money, accumulation of wealth, and luxury lifestyle. The Chinese are by nature some of the most greedy people in the world. No amount of wealth can satiate their desire for more wealth. No matters how much Xi talks about shared prosperity, CCP party values, or purges of business billionaires - no one in China other than the party faithful give a shit about CCP propaganda.
Yeh, said by a person only got his Chinese knowledge from CNN, BBC.So the massive wealth inequality is going to continue to grow and grow. Essentially its a "dog eat dog" culture no different than any capitalist country. So all the problems they attribute to decadent Western democratic societies......they suffer from the same issues, or maybe even worse. They only hide them, but even that, their own people can see thru the CCP bullshit. This is why all communist countries are ultimately big flops. The political rhetoric never matches the reality of the masses.
A old and high rating vid from Ted, talking about how the CCP selects people.This is a really good article and I have to say I have to agree on Wang Huning's observations and thoughts, this is exactly how I have been thinking the last few years but for Indian political structure and policies after coming to the same conclusions about seeing the impact of liberals and the distance from the core values which is making US hollow from the inside.
India needs the pool of leadership which can take us in that direction, the good thing is we already have the ideology but very blunt right now, Hindutva, the Hindu identity and values of all Indians regardless of religion and region balanced with strong economic and industrial push.
Its an ok system, it wont work anywhere else because it has a lot of blind spots and thats the point of the talker that it is working for China so far. While the intent to make corrective measures is good, CCP takes it to next level for the need to see quick results. Every decisions have huge consequences just like when they thought they had too many people to feed and applied the one child policy.A old and high rating vid from Ted, talking about how the CCP selects people.
Quick results? Most of CCP's policy don't see the result in 10 years.Its an ok system, it wont work anywhere else because it has a lot of blind spots and thats the point of the talker that it is working for China so far. While the intent to make corrective measures is good, CCP takes it to next level for the need to see quick results.
Be mindful, the one child policy wasn't a mistake in 1980s-2000s. At the time, the threat of food security was real (yes, I knew as I live through that period). There were 3 things that CCP got wrong:Every decisions have huge consequences just like when they thought they had too many people to feed and applied the one child policy.
1. The mistakes where appointing a rocket scientist to understand what demographics are gonna be in future who absolutely got it wrong.Quick results? Most of CCP's policy don't see the result in 10 years.
You may have an impression of quick results, that is because they only publicly talk about it until the time that results coming out.
For example, the reform & open policy. The actual prepare started before Mao's death. The decision was made in1978. We see the result? The end of 1980s.
Be mindful, the one child policy wasn't a mistake in 1980s-2000s. At the time, the threat of food security was real (yes, I knew as I live through that period). There were 3 things that CCP got wrong:
1. The advancement of agricultural technologies brought the output to a level that they could not imagine;
2. The manufacturing industries are so successful that China surprisingly has money to import massive volume of food;
3. In China, the critics about one Child policy is not the policy itself but CCP should have stopped it earlier;
Which rocket scientist? The people who put up this plan was an economist. Certainly, the whole policy was reviewed by a group of scientists of different background.1. The mistakes where appointing a rocket scientist to understand what demographics are gonna be in future who absolutely got it wrong.
Who tells you they didn't? Simply, didn't work good enough.2. The mistake of Tackling food wastage strictly and at the same time spreading awareness of having fewer kids but not going as far as punishing them or monitoring them instead of screwing the whole demographic scale towards boys.
Typically the kind of words learned from CNN and BBC, right? Yeh, a bunch of people sitting in the room waiting for the data sent by someone else but no idea how that data was made off.3. Not understanding that your own officials where fudging census data to make them look agreeable which in effect would mean the top couldn't actually kill the one child policy specifically because the data didn't look that bad "on paper".
So, what else you suggest? Pretending that issue doesn't exist? Just remember: at the time, China was poor country, there was not many options in their hand. One child policy may not be the best solution, but it was indeed the only one they had.If you think to tackle food security we have to force people to have fewer mouths to feed then boy are we on a slippery slope.
Kid, without one child policy, China didn't have resources to develop on technology or industries at all.Both countries can work look to together to secure these issues instead of working alone. India could help with its vast arable land. China could help with tech to increase productivity without damaging soil and similarly other spheres like water desalination, just because we have huge markets we can make these feasible and cheap. That doesn't mean we have to depend on each other, it is always the doomsday scenario where we dont have to take extreme measures and have friendly neighbors just like how it works in real life in your own society.
Mango tastes good,
CCP seems to have improved treatment of its slaves by leaps & bounds compared to what it was in great helmsman 1.0 period. Today they only insert probes up your backsides to take anal swabs for testing or throw you into quarantine or into concentration camps for dissent... AS OF THE PRESENT.
There's a saying in English - A leopard doesn't change its spots.
