China has 1.4 billion people and strict laws. With that many people, there could be a higher occurrence of rape, murder and other mischievous acts that warrant the death penalty. That could be the reason why executions are so high.
If China softened its laws regarding the death penalty, the...
I guess Trump becoming president is a victory for China. Everyone thought he was going to make America Great Again. It's more like give China what it wants.
Wow, so 80 government troops have been killed already last Tuesday. China needs to help them out by sending drones and their airforce to conduct air strikes on ISIS positions. I'm amazed that the US hasn't sent military aid as they are bounded by treaty to protect the Philippines.
China's film market is very competitive. You got their domestic market competing with Hollywood and other Non-Hollywood films. The domestic industry is favored by the government as local studios and co-productions get 44% of the revenue whereas foreign studios only get 25%. The government also...
China's auto industry is following the same path of development as Japanese/Korean cars. However, they have one main advantage over their rivals= China's growing consumer class. The huge amount of capital gained in China's market allows them to invest heavily in R & D and to sell cheaper in...
It shows that the US is an opportunist they don't side with anyone that gives them an unfair deal. I expect that Trump-Xi meeting has something to do this with this. US befriends India then the next minute they dump them for Pakistan for a better deal....
The meeting was planned well ahead. I don't know where you get the information that XI was summoned on short notice by Trump. Next time, back your information with sources because it shows you have no credibility.
Back to the main topic, Trump is trying to build a strong friendship with China...
Why is the Chinese team under-performing so badly at this Olympics? Did they not receive enough funding or proper training? Big shocks were Sun Yang missing the 1500 meter and the 2 weightlifters disqualified. Those were 3 easy gold medals for China. I hope they make a comeback and do a lot...
I think landing a probe on Mars is easier than landing astronauts on the moon. That's why China is sending a rover to Mars first before landing humans on the Moon.
I'm not going to talk about the article, but the actual fact of the space race.
All I can say is China is catching up fast. By 2025, the ISS will be decomissioned leaving the Chinese space station as the only one in orbit around the earth and China might land astronauts on the Moon by then. By...
Did anyone read the article carefully. It states that China is slowing down growth to balance out its economy from export driven to consumption driven. If China sticks to export driven growth, it'll still be growing at 8%, but this type of growth is very risky as it fuels government debt from...
I don't understand how India is more polluted than China or the U.S. They are much less industrialized which means less green house gas emissions and waste disposal, but many Indian cities top the list. My guess is probably smaller land mass. When India is more industrialized, I wonder how high...
Still, India has a long long way to go before it reaches China's 2015 manufacturing output. I say maybe 30 to 35 years, but by then where would China be? This chart only measures the talent, funding, and innovation in manufacturing quality products, but not the output by country. China was...
The Indian posters are extremely jealous of China's success and are sore that they're at the bottom of the list. It'll probably take India 50 or more years to reach China's 2015 total.
I think this marks China as an economic superpower now, so it's no longer an emerging economic superpower anymore. The year 2015 is when China becomes an economic superpower.
