China might have copied Singapore's model with some modifications but it does not mean that if the replica fails the original copy will fall apart. Our dynamics are entirely different.

Bad news can be from anywhere US, Israel, Malaysia etc. When people report bad news on Malaysia like ringgit collapse to 3.50...itbis accepted. When someone reported Yuan fell by 7% vs USD since beginning of 2023, there will be bias people who will attack him.

I watch this segment by ex PBOC describing serious problems of China economy it will take long time to address.

Objectively speaking when Japan had lost decade its economy already reached developed status and was stuck at high level. China will be stuck at low income level ...

There are many fans of China who like to deny problems of China and look only at the good news.


I started examining China more closely in recent yrs to look for investment opportunities. Time and again lesson learned is there are constant missteps by the leadership there that causes economic problems. The housing issue has been particularly poorly managed with large real estate companies collapsing with mountains of debts. The authoritarian nature of the leadership is a hurdle for tech giants like Tencent and Alibaba who otherwise would be the most important pillars of an advance economy. The recheting up of geo political tensions affects trade relations latest being with Phillipines.
