    • Will China be a superpower one day while US falls?

      Many people will be thinking in this way. They are big and have raw materials.

      But, will their people be educated?
      Rumours has that their people are mostly uneducated...
      Rumours also say that there are it is quite chaotic there...

      Are these rumours true?

      Hmm...
      I'm not really here to discuss just want to find out more about China and the world's future.
      I don't really know much about outside world.

      Technology wise, they can be improve gradually and quickly catch up with other country.

      But still, I don't know why, I feel that there is something big they need to do to become a superpower.

      And, will the world be chaotic when finally an big Asia country rise?

      Who knows what might happen.

    • n if the world think they have got the best PRC as their foreign talents by converting them into citizen, they r dead wrong.

      cos even though these ah tiongs may drop their citizenship of china, their heart does still belong to mainland. meaning if their homeland in trouble, they will help out no matter wat.

      meaning they will influence many PRCs all over the world. it's a destined dat singapore one day will be prc state. Confused

      Won't the later generation of them be finally loyal to whatever country they are in?

      Just like the first few generation of S'pore ain't that loyal as they came from other country.

      We too our elder are from other country, but we are loyal to Singapore now right?

      Just my 2 cent worth

      I doubt so
      I believe democracy is the way and one day, everyone will believe in democracy.
      First communist state, Russia, is becoming a democracy state.
      Why not China?

      china is only communist in theory, they must remain so or else CCP will not have the legitimacy to continue ruling.

      it's already in fact, a single-party rule, with a hybrid socialist system.

    • chinese talents may be spread across the world. but in their homeground is overcrowded wif population n there r too many universities there. many chinese r jobless upon graduated becos there r simply too much talents.

      this is why many chinese choose to find their livelihood outside their homeland.

      many of my ex-classmates from china use here as a stepping stone so dat after education here, they have a bright future like getting good prospect jobs or enable them to go western countries to further studies.

    • There shouldn't be anymore superpowers in the future.

      There should be a number of great powers in a multi-polar world.

      There should also be a balance of power between the strongest states and the weakest.

      Right now, we are in the era of USA global hegemony.

      This must end.

      i think it is plausible because we are also seeing the rise of other superpower in ASEAN region, other than China.. India and even thailand..

      I disagree

      If there are more than one 'great power'

      Of cause there'd be balance

      But what about a tussle for more power?

      Like WW1, WW2 and the Cold War?

      It might then be a blow to the world's economy

      I'd rather there be 1 superpower

    • Suggestion to China is try to have less pollution.. and get those china ppl to read books.. setup a proper government like SG and then COE! the slowly ERP... make the road smaller to get rid of bicycle so many have to use "public transport" or cars.. apply COE on helicopter... slowly price increase and increase =) hell yea.. they will take over USA Laughing Laughing Laughing then my Chinese a1s won't go waste =)!!!

      Edit:

      and of course the cigar price also go out Very Happy then maybe set up a program like CPF.. Laughing Laughing Laughing

      then get good money =) build lots of school.. then develop into a high technology country... get some Taiwan people to teach them Chinese so won't be so bloody slang..

    • One global hegemon like USA is too dangerous in my opinion.

      Look at Iraq, invaded by USA for their own political goals.
