China is conquering the world

[bluesky79]

China has made a <Multi-cultural Unificiation Theory> and has used it to distort history. China is trying to take the history of other countries and make it their own using this theory. That is why they call it the multi-cultural unification theory. They are trying to unify all the other culture's history into their own.

However China's argument falls short. South Korea's Ko-ku-ryuh kingdom lasted 700 years, whereas 70% of China's many kingdoms lasted less than 50 years. The only two dyansties that survived longer than 200 years is the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. If Ko-ku-ryuh was part of China's history, how can a secondary dynasty last three times longer than China's main dynasties? That doesn't make any sense, and the China's lies are so ill conceived. There must be an international prohibition against China's distorted history lessons.

Must be another example of that famous CHINESE EXCEPTIONALISM, eh?

By all means, commence with the violent demonstrations, self-immolations, severing of digits, destruction of property, and national elementary school hate-poster campaigns. You know, the usual.

Looks like the focus is changing from the U.S. to sharing the focus with China...

Viewpoint: China and the world
8 November 2012 - The central challenge for China and its relations with the wider world will be managing its own inexorable rise, writes former Australian Prime Minister and China expert Kevin Rudd as part of a series of features on challenges for China's new leadership.

Xi Jinping - the man most likely to become China's new president - appears to be a man very comfortable with the mantle of leadership. He will take the helm at a time when China is emerging as the world's largest economy. This will be the first time since George III that a non-English speaking, non-Western, non-democratic state will dominate the global economic order.

Xi can have confidence in his family background, given the contribution of his father Xi Zhongxun to the Chinese revolution and to subsequent economic development. He has served in the Chinese military. He is confident of his economic credentials - holding senior positions in provincial administrations has given him the experience to manage the demands of economic development. And over the last five years Xi has spent a lot of time deepening his understanding of international matters, most particularly China's relationship with the United States. He is the sort of leader the US leadership can do business with as he seeks to continue China's modernisation while maintaining strategic stability in East Asia.

East Asian nationalism

What we know from economic history is that political power invariably flows from economic power and, over time, foreign and security policy power follow suit. But the core challenge for China and the rest of the world will be managing the rise of China while maintaining and strengthening the current international rules-based order that has underpinned global strategic stability and economic growth since World War II.

The current order has served China well over the last 30 years during its reform and modernisation period. It is in China's interests that this order continue into the future notwithstanding the fact that it was not an order constructed with Chinese participation but rather by victorious Western powers after the fall of Berlin.

As China's leadership changes, issues with the U.S remain
November 8th, 2012 - As President Barack Obama prepares for a second term in the White House, his administration is keeping an eye on another leadership transition now underway on the other side of the world in China. The ramifications will surely to have a global impact.

With Obama's re-election, any notion that complexity of the relationship between the world's two largest economies could somehow change overnight has been quickly dispelled. Chinese state media issued its own view of the American election on Wednesday, saying Obama's re-election offered an opportunity to improve ties after a first term that many senior Chinese officials viewed as saying things one way then in many ways acting differently.

Regardless of the sentiment, China watchers say Obama's re-election, while not greeted with elation in Beijing, still provides some element of predictability going forward. There was perhaps greater concern if Mitt Romney had won, given how the Republican presidential candidate had turned China into the ultimate foreign policy bogeyman in the presidential campaign. Chinese officials made clear that any attempt to label their country a currency manipulator, as Romney pledged he would do his first day in office, would complicate the bilateral relationship even further. "There is certainly an exhale with regard to continuity, in that this is the devil that they know," Christopher Johnson, a former longtime China analyst at the CIA told CNN, regarding Chinese reaction to the election. "I would say they are sanguine, but not necessarily energetic or optimistic about the result."

Cheng Li, a senior fellow with the Brookings Institution, added that as Obama has "by and large" welcomed the rise of China on the global stage, the relationship between the two countries has been able to withstand periodic episodes of tension. Vice President Xi Jinping, who is widely expected to become the head of the ruling Communist party at the end of the current party congress, also is expected to become president of China in March of next year. He met President Obama during a visit to the United States last year, and toured the country with Vice President Joe Biden, with whom he is said to have a good relationship.

Personal chemistry aside, the issues and challenges facing the administration in its engagement with China are long and daunting. They include a gargantuan trade deficit, Chinese cyberespionage and theft of U.S. intellectual property, not to mention ever-increasing Chinese military expenditures. But the relationship has become increasingly interdependent in today's globalized economy, and neither country is really in a position to let the relationship drift too far. Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs Kurt Campbell recently referred to the bilateral relationship as the "most consequential" of the next decade.

Gillard: Australia must embrace 'Asian Century' - CNN.com

(CNN) -- Every Australian child should learn Mandarin, Hindi or other regional language as the nation's future is tied to the rise of the "Asian Century," Prime Minister Julia Gillard said in a policy speech on Sunday.
"Whatever else this century brings, it will bring Asia's return to global leadership, Asia's rise. This is not only unstoppable, it is gathering pace," Gillard said in a long-awaited policy white paper entitled, "Australia in The Asian Century."

Well of course Australia should. They are too weak to do otherwise.

New generation of leaders and new group heads up the military...

The new generals in charge of China's guns
13 November 2012 - It is difficult to see what is going on in the upper echelons of China's military

As China's ruling Communist Party prepares to hand power to a new generation of leaders, the BBC Beijing Bureau explains why changes at the top of the armed forces are also being closely watched. China is ushering in a new generation of political leaders this week, as Communist Party leader Hu Jintao hands over power to successor Xi Jinping. At the same time, a new group will take over the armed forces.

Amid a wave of retirements, at least seven new members will join China's 11-member Central Military Commission (CMC), which oversees its armed forces - including the world's largest standing army. The new generals will assume power at a particularly sensitive time for the Chinese military. China's armed forces swear allegiance to the party rather than the country, and the CMC cannot take unilateral military action.

But the commission's generals wield power by whispering their opinions in the ear of the Chinese leadership. "Influence from CMC members will be a major factor in determining whether there is peace or conflict in the region," explains Professor Denny Roy from the East-West Centre in Hawaii. "This matters now more than ever because there are so many regional issues that are on a knife-edge between stability and hostilities - the South China Sea, the East China Sea, North-South Korea tensions, the future of Taiwan, and the possibility of incidents between US and Chinese naval and air forces."

Considering the huge growth of the Chinese military, hopefully the generals will prove responsible. If you look at statistics about military expenditure in China over the past decade, other countries in the region including Australia have no choice but work together and tolerate the Chinese.

Yes they are, I agree.

And YES, I also think their unified cultures theory is largely bullshit, too.

It's a current Chinese equivalent theory to the American bullshit theory of AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM

Chinese learning how to land jets on carrier...

China flexes naval might with new aircraft carrier's first jet landing
25 November, 2012, China has successfully landed a warplane on its first aircraft carrier. The new J-15 jet fighter touched down on the Liaoning as part of the ship’s operational tests.

The Liaoning, a refurbished Soviet-made ship, was delivered to the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy on September 25 in a move that will bolster China’s ability to project military power. A video of the landing, broadcast by China Central Television, showed a J-15 tail hook engaging a cable on the deck of the carrier as the jet landed and slowed to a halt. China self-developed the technology for the landing, which some military experts believed would not be ready until next year. "The successful landing… has always been seen as a symbol of the operating combat capability for an aircraft carrier," Zhang Junshe, vice director of the military's Naval Affairs Research Institute told state television.

Landing a plane on the 300-meter-long carrier was a crucial test in evaluating the ship’s combat readiness. The carrier is expected to be fully operational in about three years. The crew performed more than 100 training and test programs, the Chinese Navy said, including landings and takeoffs by at least two Chinese-made Shenyang J-15 multipurpose carrier-borne jets. Beijing bought the partially built aircraft carrier from Ukraine 10 years ago, and completed it at the port of Dalian in China's northeastern Liaoning province. The ship, dubbed 'Varyag' by the Soviet Navy, was sold off after the collapse of the USSR.

The J-15 fighter is believed to borrow design elements from the fourth-generation Sukhoi Su-33 T10K, another Chinese military purchase from Ukraine. The aircraft uses Russian-made engines, and can be armed with precision-guided bombs and both air-to-surface and air-to-air missiles. Beijing is rumored to be constructing two more independently built aircraft carriers as part of a push to modernize its military.

China is building up its naval capabilities amid rising tensions with its neighbors over several territorial disputes in the East China Sea. A conflict recently escalated with Japan over a group of islands, fueling anti-Japanese riots in China and leading to declining sales of Japanese goods in the country. Chinas has also seen a rise in similar tensions with Vietnam and the Philippines.
