I was in Australia 5 months ago, I attended two community meetings, there was a lot of anti-china sentiment at both meetings. I asked for a raise of hands to the question. "do you believe your government and media lie to you", 100% raised their hand, and then I said, so you believe your government and media lie to you but regarding China you think they are telling you the truth, at both meeting there was silence and a room full of blank faces.

If the collective West is so great and must rely on China bashing to advance its agenda, one can imagine how far they can go with this. The collective West is bragging about their societies being so much better than everyone else, in the meantime they hate socialism, so how much confidence in their own societies do they have may I ask? Obviously the answer is they don’t have any confidence 😂

At least, China's system is not a "donation system". This is unlike the US system, which relies heavily on donations. All the campaign funds of the politicians are heavily dependent on donations, especially corporate donations. That is why the American politicians are controlled by the big companies.

The people have no choice. CCP donations come from CCP taking money from the state. They are the state. No democracy no need for contributions to political parties

Special interest groups in Australia have been talking about a "threat of a Chinese invasion" since the 1950s when China didn't even have a navy able to patrol its own shores apart from some sailing boats and junks let alone, sail the thousands of kilometers through the South China Sea, the Indonesian Straits and to the top end of Australia. When asked, "how they gonna get here? Swim?" at the time, I have always been left with the blank looks of goldfishes staring through a goldfish bowl with mouths agape. Sure, China has built a strong naval force since those early years of the 1950s but again, they are also asked, "what do the Chinese Communists find so attractive that they would want to invade Australia for?" Again the blank looks as they rack their brains trying to think of some really salient reasons. In reality, there really is nothing of worth that the CPC would want from Australia that they cannot buy from other countries - and friendlier ones too. Who would want to invade this country because "of our lifestyle"? Sometimes, we place too high a value on what little we have - iron, and coal. So what? We are not the only country in the world with these - and smarter people like Andrew Forrest knows it - which is why he is not on that "China threat" band wagon being pushed by the United States of America. China is NOT Japan - a warrior nation that was certainly very warlike in the 1930s - 1945. Chinese civilization is built very strongly around centuries of following the philosophies of Buddhism and Confucianism. Even their "Art of War" proposes peace as the first step towards 'winning" any war. The Japanese can very quickly revamp its warrior or bushido spirit which runs deep within the veins of the Japanese people. If anything, Japan is more likely to invade Australia for resources it does not have than China would. In fact, it is an insult when Westerners equate the Chinese as Japanese and it is racist in nature. It's all irrational, illogical thinking that is totally devoid of any common sense and is virtually like something out of a comic book. "Threat of a Chinese Invasion of Australia? As though the CPC doesn't have enough to look after a land mass that is almost the same size as its own but with far fewer habitable areas so that its population are all crowded around a few fringes of the coastline. Whenever anyone talks about a "Chinese Invasion of Australia" threat such as those regurgitated by warmongers in Canberra toeing the United States' lies (lines), I am not sure if I should laugh myself silly or cry at their stupidity and belligerence (meanwhile, in the background is played the Joan Baez song, "One Tin Soldier").

Since the 1950s, the country has taxed companies based on their revenue. To ease the burden, the central government launched a reform in 2012 aimed at phasing out corporate tax and introducing VAT at each stage of the production chain. The pilot was gradually expanded, and the collection of corporate tax was scrapped in May last year 2016 China's tax rate structure was reduced from four tiers to three in July 2016 - to 6 percent, 11 percent and 17 percent - while the levy on farm produce, tap water and books was reduced from 13 percent to 11 percent. On Oct 30 2016, it was announced that duties on the sale of imported goods such as grains and animal feed would also be lowered from 13 percent to 11 percent, while transitional policies for other sectors remained unchanged. Companies involved in research and development get huge tax relief and can save millions. For example, BOE Technology had enjoyed a super deduction of nearly 1.6 billion yuan in Research & Development expenses, which bolstered the company's finances, helping it to invest on more innovations.

For more than a month, the military murdered residents of the area. Testimonies show that victims were made to strip and dig their own graves before being killed by gunshot.[5]

The current round of real estate collapse is for people who own 2nd or 3rd home in China! It is true the international speculators are unhappy and hope the Chinese government would step in to bail out their losses. That will never happen.

It's not even for people who own two or three, it's quite possible to own more homes, I was talking to a friend this morning, her father owns 4 homes, each one was the home he lived in until he upgraded and, instead of selling them, he allows other family members, his parents are in one, his wife's parents are in another. When his parents pass, I suspect he will sell them and retire on the proceeds - that's acceptable investments, speculation is people owning 10-20 or even 100 from a development while still on the plan, they then sell at 10% or more profit a few weeks after making the purchase - that had to stop. Again, I have a friend here who did that, he's incredibly wealthy and lost a small fortune, but don't worry about him, he's still got a large fortune to spend because he used his own, not bank money - if he had lonas on the 100 or so apartments he owns, he would have severe problems repaying them as house prices halved in some areas - he was lucky but he has lost several million, although if he sits on the properties long enough, he might recover some of it, but then if the government introduces a property tax on additionally owned apartments, he's be in dire straits!

Jerry, thanks. I didn't know that the 70-year lease on private property can be renewed anytime, to make it 70 years again. That's nice, and if every new generation does it, they will have the property for the next generation at least. That I envy, haha, as in Singapore, our 99-year leasehold means no renewal. In between, there may be upgrading done (paid by both government and residents), and/or the property may be acquired (at market price) by the government, and residents may be given a choice of a new unit at a different location (to be paid at market price) or simply given the market price compensation to look for another resident.

S Korea, Japan, Philippines, Thailand and many other Asian countries have a political system known as the political patronage or patron-client democracy system; in which the government rewards the corporate elites that supported it with appointed administrative posts in the government branches. In fact, the system eerily parallels the spoils system that characterizes the modern patron democracy. Political patronage is the main reason for the proliferation of corruption and cronyism, and is directly diametrical to the meritocracy that China's political system is based on.

@@Andy-P No, the CPC will not promote other countries to adopt China's political system. You can see in many press conferences or reports that China does not care about other countries' political systems, and that each country should find its own political system instead of blindly following a certain country. Promoting mutually beneficial trade is the most important thing the Communist Party of China does. If you lack infrastructure, China can provide for you, and you do not accept trade, it is no problem. You can discuss the next one, which does not attach any political conditions.

In any case, managing a country with a large population is not an easy task. Often in Chinese media reports on advanced foreign technology and experience there is a great deal of explicit and implicit criticism of the Chinese government. cpc's main task now is to "meet the different and growing needs of the general public" is very pragmatic

Yes China is doing great right now, I’d say since Xi. And I’d say his anti-corruption champaign is working and bri is to China’s favor, plus Chinese’ working and saving habits in general. Let’s not forget it’s still a human run society for human beings and hopefully not too many prolonged mistakes. Keep up the good work Xi, just do your countrymen some good. Oh, the west calling you an emperor, boy, if only we have your governance.

Another interesting take, Jerry. When reading Xi Jinping's 'The Governance of China' (4 volumes) it is interesting to see how embedded Marxism is in CPC ideology. And to anyone who has some insight in Marxism will know, Marxism is not what western pundits claim it to be, and not what was practised in the Soviet Union. It is also easy to see why Chinese socialism is such a threat to western capitalism, because it includes social justice, which means EVERYBODY have REAL inalienable rights, but contrary to US and western interpretation it includes all. And to see what ordinary life is like in China, just watch the 'Little Chinese Everywhere' -videos.

One of my childhood friends works in a semi-govt entity where does civil designing, his wife works in local tax office as a little supervisor, OT is their norm, and no OT payment, in return, they get time-off which they rarely use, and they have little time to be with their 5yo daughter, have to rely on their parents to do childcare. I asked, isn’t it illegal not to pay you OT? Aint you not happy about this? They said, no complaints, as govt staff we are expected to work for the people, that is the regulation, not illegal, plus, our job is much more secured than grassroots, it is shameful to have that money(I guess this mentality might be hard to understand for westerners, but that’s how they think). I asked one more question: even western communists think unequal pay for govt contractors in China is ugly, how do you think of it? They said, we all had the same education resources, while we studied our asses off to pass those exams to get where we are now, they were either wasting their time on games or on relationships then had shitty scores on exams, how is it fair to us if they have the same pay??

@jerrystakeonchina799

5 ай бұрын

Not at all complex Waitan, first of all, the "one child policy" is the Western name for a policy that China enacted to overcome a very serious problem back in 1979. The problem was that a country with limited resources and in poverty at the time had too many people to feed itself and more were being born due to previous policies, many of them pre-dating the Civil War when more kids were encouraged in order to provide a strong military to defend whatever cause the government at the time wanted to defend, this included Mao's era when he was attempting to build the country back from the devastation of WW2, the Civil War and the fact that the KMT took the entire treasury and the contents of many museums to Taiwan. The correct name is the Family Planning Policy, it never included Hong Kong or Macau and it exempted all ethnic minorities as well as the Autonomous regions, so if a Han Chinese went to live in Ningxia, because it was poverty ridden in an already poor country, the government wanted to encourage people to go there and this was one way, the other was with incentives to create jobs, they could have more children. About 10 years ago, they adjusted the policy to allow 2 children and then later 3 but now it's acceptable, if a family can afford it to have many. So, there were already many families allowed more than one and, in some regions, families would illegally have another. My wife is the middle of three, she and her older sister were born before the policy was introduced but her younger sister was not. She was an "illegal" my mother in law was a teacher and she needed to hide the fact she was pregnant until it was too late to do anything about it and even then, she left the school for a period of time and "hid" at home, her family, friends and neighbours knew nothing of the third pregnancy. When they baby was born, they went to the local community and told them, their punishment was 14 years without a single increase in pay, no bonuses at Chinese new year and no promotions for either of them until the new baby was finished her compulsory 9 years of education. Effectively, my wife's family were impoverished by the system, they lived spartan lives and when my wife was 13 she was sent to live with an uncle and aunt in another city. It was a VERY tough decision for my parents in law to make and it was tough on my wife too but there was a punishment for breaking the law and, because both my in laws were Party members, their punishment was particularly harsh - others who had more money, just paid a fee and their second child was legal. It isn't really a complicated system and it has caused an imbalance of girls to boys but it certainly didn't cause what media in the West would have you believe, there is no sort of crisis, even the aged population crisis that the media now says is an issue is not, the UK, Germany, the USA and in particular Japan, all have greater issues with the same situation and China has been addressing it since the family planning policy was implemented and dealing with the challenges it will create down the track since the last 5 year plan, over 6 years ago. China is in a position where it is damned if it does and damned if it doesn't handle these issues - in my opinion, they handled it well, but harshly, it was a necessary but unpopular law and how they deal with the aftermath of it will be posted in information provided by the government during reports and published by the Ministry of State Information on a regular basis - there's nothing to worry about in relation to this policy, challenges exist but they are not crises.

Basically all welfare, medical, unemployment, insurance and other payments are made by employers to Insurance agencies. This is the same for all employers in China and also includes Foreign-invested enterprises that are supposed to participate in the social insurance systems of pension, unemployment, medical care, work injury and childbirth through regular and adequate payment to the insurance agencies in accordance with the standards prescribed by the local government as required by relevant regulations. Insurance premiums should be expensed in accordance with state regulations. Employees should also pay the required amount for their pension, medical care and unemployment insurances in accordance with relevant regulations. In addition to the insurances above, there are other welfares like housing fund, professional training, stipends and statutory holidays. Chinese mainland officials invited more eligible Hong Kong residents to join the mainland's social security system and enjoy more safeguards in a seminar on relevant policies organized in Hong Kong on Monday. Since Jan 1, 2020, residents of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan who live, work or study on the mainland have been eligible for the mainland's social security benefits. Residents hired by China's enterprises, the self-employed, retirees, and students can apply for different insurance systems, including medical, pension, work-related injury, unemployment, and maternity insurance. Over 160,000 Hong Kong and Macao people signed up for the mainland's pension insurance scheme by October 2021, while over 80,000 applied for the work-related injury insurance and over 70,000 availed of unemployment insurance, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security said recently. Foreigners who are part of the social security and medical systems etc can have full re-imbursement of payments upon leaving China.

There is stamp duty on property transactions, it's 1.5% here. THere is sales tax on most products and income tax on income - there are also contributions which are made by and/or for workers (employees) but there is no land usage fee such as rates or property taxes at this moment in time . There is talk in Western media that it's inevitable but I'll wait and see, I think before it's ever imposed the CPC would seek public opinion on it and i'm certain there would be no global application, perhaps just on people like me who have an empty property, or people who have more than 1 or two in the family.; that would make sense

What percentage of China's current economy is run by Co-ops, and is the government actively encouraging them/helping to foster their growth? I'm interested because that's something I'm all for, actually. 3. Regarding the political/governmental infrastructure of China, what are Western sources that have written about it in detail & have done so fairly in your estimation?

Good questions Kevin here we go: 1) last year at the end of the Two Sessions (which start again next week) Xi Jinping said the SOE's had, for the first time in PRC history gone below 50%, it was 48 % nd he wa hoping and predicting that it would reduce further in coming years - I suspect it will and it will be a slow steady pace to the point where only necesseary infrastructure, health, transport, communications and education will remain State responsibility while everything else will be controlled at the macro level but privately owned. 2) I think answer 1 answered this - 52% of the economy is in private hands, as for cooperatives, I don't know but public limited companies are the norm here, not the exception. Massive incentives are given by the government in some regions such as the Greater Bay Area to encourage more people to come here, mostly from HK and Macau but also global high end talent - the same applies in Fuzhou, to encourage people from Taiwan and that's incredibly successful, despite what you might read in the media and there's one region on either end of the country recently opened up so foreign businesses can get a foothold into China. One is Hainan Island, another is the Russian port of Vladivostock and the final one is Xinjiang, so allow for the Eurasian and Central Asian markets - it's very exiting times indeed. 3) Western sources which report fairly are more difficult to find than Western sources which are in abundance - Transnational.live is one such, Harvard Ashe Centre is another. Look for Warwick Powell, a professor Economics in Australia. THe Grayzone News and in Australia, "Pearls and Irritations" is generally neutral, they will publish me saying one thing and another person saying the opposite in the same edition. The Cowestpro Papers focuses on what's happened in Xinjiang more than anything else but is highly accurate and very interesting; there are others but that will keep you going

I have just been reading about this topic on Chinese media. I already posted this but it somehow didn't go through. "China is building a democracy with Chinese characteristics that involves more public participation and is more connected to the reality and interests of the people than many Western democracies." Tang, from Fudan University, said electoral democracy in capitalist Western countries is a manifestation of the interests of political parties and capital, or a "populism ballot carnival" held by politicians to manipulate public opinion for their specific interests. "As a result, it is a deviation from the public interest and has kidnapped public interest, which will cause potential risks to the prosperity and unity of the state," he said. The operating mechanism for democracy in China does not rely on elections based on multiparty competition, in which people vote for leaders every few years but barely take part in national affairs in their daily lives afterward, he said. Democracy in China is not a narrow voting process. Instead, it's a process in which people's opinions are heard and even absorbed into national policies, Tang said. Different from Western-style democracy, which is often characterized by voting in elections every few years, Chinese democracy is a daily way of life for the people that leads to effective results, the experts added. Zhu Lingjun, a professor at the Party School of the CPC Central Committee Said the Party has integrated the "mass line" into its governance activities, ensuring that it can hear the voice of the people on decision-making, implementation and oversight. Zhu added that consultative democracy in China avoids the formalism of democracy in many countries, where people only have the right to vote but are not entitled to widespread participation. "People in these countries only wake up to vote and then go back to sleep after they do so," Zhu said. In August last yea,r 2020, netizens' suggestions and advice for the draft 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) were sought online, the first time this practice had been adopted for the formulation of such an important document. Last year, Xinhua News Agency released a video featuring a netizen whose opinions on the ageing society were included in the document. Li Dianbo, a village official in Dalad Banner, Inner Mongolia autonomous region, suggested online that a mutual assistance elderly care model be established in rural areas. In Li's village, two-thirds of the 1,200 or so permanent residents are seniors whose children have left to find work in cities. He deals with the tough task of elderly care in rural areas every day. Li suggested that in densely populated rural areas, the government build public canteens and dormitories for seniors willing to live together. Those who are relatively younger and more able could take care of seniors who are older and weaker, forming a mutual support and elderly care system. His idea was later incorporated in the blueprint document by the central authorities. Li said, "I feel that the document was drafted by the central leadership in the interests of the people, and also with the participation of the people at grass roots level."

The problem is the western percieves china to be like hilter nazi. china's system is election on local level in the back streets, villages, towns and then cities. So the people choose their leaders in china. then after they go through many levels and stages of hard works to get leadership positions etc. The west is the party choose their leader or nomiate their leader to select for the represent their party. end of the day, cpc consitutionals can change if it is not working. but in the west, they can change parties but can't policy , so easily. cpc is reforming all the time, if it doesn't work, they get rid of it. they will adapt what works, they don't care who they copy from or who break through first. it is undoubtly china has learned 80% of their of success from singagore and the others western countries such as germany, france , uk etc

There are two ways to prevent the collapse of capitalism, which is inherently unstable and abusive due to inevitable inequality: 1) colonialism and 2) socialism. Colonialism can be used to tackle inequality by stealing the wealth of other nations and using some of that to produce bread and circuses to keep the peasants from growing discontent. Socialism, on the other hand, tackles inequality directly with a more comprehensive redistribution of wealth and opportunities.

On property ownership, I know someone whose grandfather had a heirloom house and farmland in Fujian. After her grandfather died, she (a Singaporean) went to Fujian and renewed and registered the deeds and she's now the legal owner. In some western countries, this would have been impossible as foreigners are not allowed to own property in their countries.

My society was doing excellent and we had great time back when. In retrospect, right in the open and ever so subtly, trappings were alongside. What societal good time does, is spoiling the mass and pronouncing individual independence in multi-dimensions. Uniformity grows to uniformities and so far, we’ve seen China’s uniformity in China. But, her uniformities are here, in the west. Boy o boy, all the anti-China Chinese, as well as guys like serpent oil salesman are running amuck here. Unfortunately, it is believable with Chinese face bad-mouthing China. We’ve been the Gordon guy proven wrong each and every time, but still…. And fortunately, we’ve been informed by the likes of you to debunk lies on China. I’d say it’s making great strides, I’ve seen re-wording, from bad Chinese to bad China to bad ccp to….. So keep it up, Jerry, not Chinese to American, but human to human.

Great point - fortunately, the rest of the world, outside of US influence is seeing the real China - try reading media that isn't from the Anglospher or the US influenced parts of Europe - it's a very different world when we pick up a Vietnamese media or read the Middle East Monitor, even Al Jazeera, which is fringe MSM is very different in its approach to US propaganda

“Anglosphere”? To me, when it comes to western media coverage, it’s Jewishsphere. The same with my government, my government has maybe a few dozens leaders refusing Israeli money. Only a few dozen out of 535 congressmen who’s not on Israeli list.

No one system of governance is perfect, nor is there one that fits every society. So I find it perplexing when someone speaks so confidently about Chinese communism / socialism as if there was no room for adjustment. For people that are supposed to be "free" thinkers, many of them actually don't use their brains much. Kudos to those that actually ask legitimate questions and are willing to listen and consider the answers.

I agree, there's always room for improvement - for myself, I honestly believe there are enough people online already complaining about China so there's no need for me to add to that list - I simply tell people what I know to be true and what's usually very different from what they believe to be true

I was thinking Robinson’s podcast might be interested to interview you, he’s usually focused on scientific philosophy, misunderstandings of the method, the nature of cognition and other curiosities Given the state of geopolitics he’s recently run off topic to satisfy his ignorance of economics with Hudson and Wolfe, and did a 3 part multi perspective on the Gaza crisis This clip came out recently where the absurd theory of Chinese bio weaponizing Covid was put out offhandedly; He’s a very thoughtful, understated sort that I don’t expect believes this, but like so many smart people I don’t think he knows China at all kzread.info/dash/bejne/qaSLpLWmo9zTYbw.htmlsi=5PsS0vGq5cny_-K8

THanks Jamy, I will look into this later today

"Dictatorship of the proletariat." This concept is completely alien to Americans and Europeans. I'm not sure they can even understand the concept. Regardless of what the West may think of China's system of governance, there are two potential viewpoints: 1. The Chinese system works poorly and it will ultimately fail (which should please Westerners). 2. The Chinese system works well and the Chinese people fully support it (this is shown by Western research such as Edelman, Harvard Kennedy School, Ipsos, and Latana). Neither viewpoint matters. Neither viewpoint will alter the reality of China which is that this is China's century. The sun is setting on the American empire.

This is true - isn't it strange that every organisation that comes to China to ask the Chinese what they think, gets a different answer to the media narrative...

Socialism in China works better than democracy in the US. Whatever policy the CPC brings out has the Chinese people in mind, where're as the US makes policy that benefit the big corporations.

Try proving anything wrong - that's always a good way to discredit anyone - if you take any of the facts mentioned in any of the videos and are able to prove even one of them wrong, you've hurt my credibility, if you can't but maintain that I’m possibly dishonest, then you're more likely to hurt your own. Once you realise that everything I state as a fact is supportable with either government, academic or media facts, then you realise something is dishonest about what you're reading and watching in the media you consume - and it's quite likely, if you believe what you read about China you will be horrified at what you've learnt and how much you've been misled - it will change you forever, you can never believe anything you read, not about Iran, not about DPRK, not about Russia, nothing will add up once tyou start checking things with the information they don’t show you. For example, the media will tell you the Muslim world is strangely silent on what's happening in Xinjiang - but then read Chinese media and you'll see that about 100 different Islamic leaders have visited Xinjiang, gone home to their countries and reported that there is no genocide, not even any oppression, there is simple a secure, safe and stable place where 15 million Ethnic Minorities practice their faith, in most cases it is Islam, but not all, some are Buddhist, some are Christian and they live well, improving and happy lives - then you read a Middle East Monitor, or you read an Iranian media outlet, or an Indonesian media outlet and you find what China's media says has been echoed in there because people who have seen and who do know, are all writing the truth. Yet you were told the Islamic world has turned a blind eye to China's atrocities... So yes, once you start to look deeper, you will find there is a very different story to the one you've been told

@@jerrystakeonchina799 Jerry, I don't know what it is in the minds of Westerners who seem to have a great difficulty in understanding when China said, "we do not export our system - every country must find what is best for them", "win-win", and "mutual respect"? No matter how many times China has repeatedly said that it has no interest in pushing its own system of government onto others - like what the West does in assuming a position of superiority and dominance, it has consistently fallen on deaf ears or at the least, into block heads that cannot fathom the mere idea of independent but mutual cooperative leaderships. It is absolutely frustrating to hear and read of talking points from people who have no idea what they are talking or writing about while assuming that China is just like they.
