While the origin of the novel coronavirus is still unknown and conspiracy theories have caused widespread panic, experts said that timely information disclosure to the public would benefit global unity and cooperation against the pandemic, which had infected more than 150,000 people and killed 5,400 around the world as of Saturday.

I have been to China a few times and they are being "sold" to on a massive scale. This is done by companies who have had decades to perfect their strategy in the western world and I am sure it is overwhelming for this neophyte population. Keeping up with the Wangs is their new way of life, the world of "more".

It's typical FT like the most western media, only see the downside of China's change. But I see the transformation in the country: the old low tech and cheap labour based economy is slowly transit into high tech and high value manufacture based economy. You can observe this with number of new technology and new product. Other country, such as Japan, has been through this path before, from low paid labor concentrated economy after the WW2 to an modernized society until it's development is interrupted by Plaza Accord in late 1980s. But China is not Japan that rely on the protection from US. China is an independent state and I do believe East Asian is far more advanced civilization than the West. History will tell just watch .. if you can live long enough!

I understood that many Chinese firms are turning to automation and robotics to do repetitive tasks at a much cheaper cost. The trouble is that European and American companies can automate too and save on transport costs etc.

Remember when China promised they wouldn't militarize the South China Sea, and then they went and militarized the South China Sea? Does your government give one out of every hundred dollars it spends to the aid of countries that, sometimes, don't even *like* you? You knew that we gave billions of dollars to Pakistan? They *hate* us. During the height of the early Cold War, we offered financial aid to the *Soviet Union,* in the form of the Marshall Plan. When did you offer your ideological enemies financial aid? Did your media tell you who *funded* you the entire time you were at war with Japan? Did your media tell you who ultimately *defeated* Japan? When China gives "aid," they import their own workers, creating practically no jobs. The quotas are strict, so construction moves so quickly that some bridges collapse in *several weeks (Kenya).* Some countries now see up to a 60% increase in foreign debt, *exclusively* to China. Who's the imperialist now? You're making *bank.* Kenya definitely isn't. You complain about our hundreds of military bases abroad. South Korea exists with hundreds of long range artillery pieces within range of its *capital.* You want to go and ask them if they want the Americans out? China offers infrastructure, and incurs massive debt in the nations it "helps." The United States pays more than almost any other nation on *Earth* for the oil it "steals." The countries it """"occupied"""" run a financial *surplus* because unlike the Russians in Crimea, the Americans *pay* to be there. You're upset about being sanctioned? Don't invade your neighbors, please. You're free to criticise our actions in the Phillipines. You're free to criticise our actions in Cuba. You're even free to criticise *Capitalism,* in its many flaws. You're free to criticise *Churchill,* who rivalled Stalin in loss of life. But please, do not say you have a moral high ground.

I noticed it said about the difficulty of over 35s to get jobs, so surely what is likely to happen will be for Chinese firms to be forced to take older works to at least partially offset the demographics? As happened in the west. Also, near the end, it said China's slowing economy is hitting the commodity producers, but surely China being mainly a producer for exports, the slowing demand ultimately is from the US and EU? Some of the slowdown is Chinese - presumably some demand there will also slow, but the west is the biggest take for their goods. There are lots of co-dependencies in the global economy.

Chine had the most amazing experience in globalization. They are very hard working and disciplinary. Many company from USA and EU left them countries and work in Chinese industry. Low payments of freehand workers not taxpayers too. So all this money go in packets of the business owners. They creadt a higher wealth.. Chine economy grow very fast and up 9%gdp USA economy slow and bad shape the same EU. Now it's not pandemic which cread the gap. But slow of corporate to USA which help a lot China England has been.

And this was 2016. It has become much worse now with more jobs lost and people having to go back to the countryside or the small towns they came from. But these people are the heart of China for anyone who spent time there years ago. While you meet and make friends with a class of people who are on their way up, already becoming accustomed to a better living standard, educated, with good jobs and many who have learned a good deal of English, it was these people who captured my heart in the mid 90's. Having come from a very poor family myself it was easy to identify and communicate on a more human level with less verbiage. These people are not the CCP anymore than the poorest people in any country can be equated with their ruling class. They are as much the salt of the Earth as were the people I grew up with in America in the 1930's. May God care for them.

Older workers are not wanted in the USA either.

Even miracles have its own limits.

If the people in eg US can work in the factory without a fuss, there's no problem, but if the workers have demands they will close the factory and establish a factory in China, where there's cheap labour but the Chinese workers have demands, the factory will be closed and will be shifted to another country where there's cheap labour, unfortunately this cycle continues. The solution is that the government should intervene, as well as the workers and the factory management and solve this never ending cycle. Its the same in cases of taxes, if the government imposes heavy taxes on corporations, they will simply move to another city or another country. There should be a midline between the government and corporations as well as the workers, or job seekers.

China still going strong..infact innovating to be market leader...

Western countries in pursuit of cheap labour have shifted their manufacturing establishment to China all in one basket not anticipating this will lead to their downfall in the foreseeable future. Chinese are experts in reverse engineering without dedicated R & D facilities. The United States of America had plans to rule the technological world but that also misfires for various reasons. Chinese are experts in hacking and nothing can be kept secret. It is heartening to note that the Western countries, EU, and other countries have realised the need for relocating their manufacturing sector from China which may prove to be a serious blow to them.

People of China, for the time being, is "where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise " . However when dying is worth more important than living then revolution is the only hope.

I don’t agree with a minimum wage because everyone should be in a union and therefor have collective bargaining powers, but businesses should have the sense to increase their prices in order to avoid closure. Also minimum wage increase should coincide with small business tax breaks as well as tax hikes on the wealthy, large corporations and Capital gains. So the bottom and middle benefit from such. No need to punish the poor because the rich are greedy.

who else time-traveled from 2021 and is watching this through a fleshlight?

These factories in China represent a larger global issue: mass consumption. If we stop focusing on quantity and on quality it would be easier to bring western factories home. This excessive demand needs to stop and the very people responsible for creating this insatiable demand, must take a hard look at the world they’ve created. In the case they don’t, we must do it for them because we represent the future. Overconsumption must be left in the past, only then can we get closer to tackling this major issue that put the ccp in this position where they don’t face the repercussions of their actions. Of course the issue is a lot more complex with so many layers, but the point I want to highlight is that we need to stop over consumption. Jobs are created due to innovative ideas that create needs.
