Yes.. Not only USA but the west.. they say something and all their target is domination.. They can't change... In history , China ignored or didn't know that, and it fell in lots of troubles.. ending up being occupied or fighting the British.. In this regards I am talking about the commerical relationship of china with the Spanish and Portuguese when they were the super powers. China thought that it is pure commercial, and never thought of the wolves spirit of the other side, so it helped Portugues against Islamic Indian who were ruling India .. It ended up with Hong Kong and Macao, being ruled by westerns.. They occupied Indonesia, Philippines and Malaysia ..etc And China at that time, before the disaster of its decision to be isolated and burnt its fleet of merchants ships. When China had the power of concuring the whole world. One Million soldiers and 5000 ships, compared to England, of 20,000 soldiers and 20 ships. The message in brief.. The fox is always a fox even when he wears a Bikini. S1000+
and our folks story Layla and the fox, which ended up being eaten by the fox. This story is 1000 years old. ======= S1000+ ======= ________________________________ From: xi <[email protected]> To: World-thread <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, November 14, 2009 8:08:11 AM Subject: Re: The lost USA Thanks a lot for that message Sumerian. It is really interesting for me. I absolutely agree with The senior director for East Asian affairs at the National Security Council words, Sumerian. "I don't see this relationship as a zero-sum one. We see it as a relationship where we're obviously going to have differences, where we are going to be competitors in certain respects. But we want to maximise areas where we can work together because the global challenges we face will simply not be met if we don't.". However I am not so sure that US administration agrees with their own words, in any case it would be their own business and they would pay the consequences as usual. You know that one thing is what American politicians say, and something different what they do. I always told this global economy is more cooperation than competition. The losers are those who see this global economy in terms of power, domination, etc. The winners see it in terms of growth, win-win and mutual prosperity. Also, I agree that China saves too much and consumes too little, exactly the opposite than USA. I told it many years ago. China has changed the growth model three times times within the last 60 years. During this crisis we have changed that model again. This time toward a more balanced foreign sector-domestic sector, still with a little foreign trade surplus. The consequence is that, with this new model, China is leading Asian (and probably beyond) growth along next one or two decades. It is good for Chinese people to rise our tandard of life and for people in Asia and around the globe too as we generte economic activity and growth in economies strongly engaged to China s economy. Peace and best wishes.
