China’s is the fastest growth by a major economy in human history – 40 years of China’s ‘reform and opening up’
18-02-05-China-Economic-Growth.png

The ‘Western media’ is forced to attempt to factually conceal the scale of China’s achievement because to admit it would transform the world’s understanding of itself. For developing countries, the overwhelming majority of the world’s population, to admit this reality would show that the China’s ‘economic model’ is by far most effective practical way to achieve economic growth, to gigantically and rapidly improve the living standards of the average population, and to radically eliminate poverty. For the advanced economies China’s ‘socialist market economy’, with its decisive role of the state sector, but combined with a private sector, shows a clear and successful alternative to the failure of neo-liberalism in the ‘Washington Consensus’ and the austerity policies pursued by the advanced countries.

Most terrifyingly of all for the Western media China shows that the most successful economy in the world in producing economic growth and improving living standards is a socialist and not a capitalist one.

Because it is therefore vital for the Western media to prevent the truth about China’s economic achievements being widely know this website is therefore going to mark the 40th anniversary of the ‘reform and opening up’ policy, introduced by Deng Xiaoping and Chen Yun, by a series of articles on the facts of China’s economic achievements in 1978-2018. It will demonstrate why it is simply a statement of fact that China’s economic achievement in the 40 years of ‘reform and opening up’ is greatest in human history.

This first article simply deals with the speed of China’s economic development. The economic growth rate of China in 1978-2019 is the fastest in a major economy in human history.

  • Between 1978 and 2017 China’s economy expanded at an annual average 9.5% growth rate, growing in size almost 35 times.
For comparison the fastest rates of growth of other major economies over a 39 year period were the so called ‘Asian Tigers’. These were:
Taiwan Province of China, expanding at an average 8.8% and increasing in size almost 27 times in 1950-89;
South Korea expanding at an annual average 8.3% or increasing in size almost 23 times in 1952-91,
Hong Kong SAR growing at an average 8.1% or expanding almost 21 times in 1958-1997, and Singapore growing at an annual average 8.1%, or expanding almost 21 times in 1951-1990. These are shown on the chart.

But all these economies were very small compared to China. Taking really large economies, which are therefore more comparable to China, the fastest growth over a 39 year period ever recorded was Japan in 1950-89 when it expanded at an annual average 6.7% or by almost 13 times.

The facts are therefore clear. China’s is the fastest growth ever experienced by a major economy in the whole of human history. There are other features, which will be explored in this series of articles, which are equally striking, but this single fact alone establishes China as an unprecedented economic achievement.

That's why West us so threatened of east asia.
The west learned tech from east and used it to colonize the rest to fund its own growth ,but despite being left in shambles by the western colonizers,east asia soon rose to be the top,the only thing left is the western propaganda that has been implanted due to their colonial efforts.

It's unfair to emphasize what has achieved after 1978. Chairman Mao is the key driver of China achievement.
He was demonized by western media, but for those who read history in depth, will recognized what Mao achieved since 1928.

Mao dedicated his whole life to China revolution. Mao's whole family, almost all of his relatives died, including his sons.

Without Mao's achievement, there is no ground for Deng Xiaoping open up policy.

There are several other political leader can do Deng's job, such as Chen Yun. But there is no one can do Mao's job. Literally no one.

For those who can only read English biased media, will never truly understand CCP and Chairman Mao.

Mao was a very controversial figure even among the Chinese population, I m neutral about him and a big fan of Deng.

Mao gave China total and unconditional national sovereignty and independence, it means that even after we opened up, we can remain intact and unharmed while reaping the benefits. Without Mao's foundation, opening up would be the same as Mughal India opening up to the East India Company, just pure colonization. But Mao's accomplishments were all achieved early in his rule, it's a pity he didn't step down after 1957, his later economic and social policies were erratic and regressive.

I very agree with this article!!!

Some people say I'm too obsessed with China.

That because these people don't understand and never see it, clouded their judgement over the ideological war in the media and political world.


That is why I say, in the ideology realm, the world has lost its scientific way of thinking.

Thanks for the USA vs USSR cold war, we are not thinking logically anymore.

It's a big loss for the whole world actually.


The only country who still do the science for ideology is China, that is why China is always changing and improving.

Ideology is the foundation of everything, ideology is the foundation of the economy, social, and technology progress of a country or any society in the world.


Democracy was good and noble, but as time pass by, it has been exploited by opportunist politicians.

It's not Deng's open up policy. It's Mao's decision. Deng's job is keep doing it and execution.

The opening-up policy is Mao Zedong legacy?

Well, this is something new to me.

Tell me more of the story.

After 1957, Mao made some mistakes, which is true. But no one is perfect.

Even after 1957, Mao made greater achievement than Deng. Mao clean up all the epidemic, such as schistosomiasis, Aids, Vampire fever, helopyra and many others, first time in China history.

Even after 1957, Mao built more railway than anyone else in China history, more dam than anyone else in China history.

Even after 1957, Mao clean up those traitors (汉奸). clean up the corruption, built PLA.

Even after 1957, Mao built the industry, especially military industry, hydrogen bomb, tanks, jet and many others.

Before Mao died, Chinese literacy rate increased from 15% to 65.1%. India today 74.04%.

Mao's legacy is far bigger than most of foreigner thought.

Without Mao, China's future is dark.

But what I couldn't understand is why Mao closed all high schools and colleges during the cultural revolution and for a decade not a single college gradate was made in whole China, Young people were all sent to the country to become farmers and Xi was one of them, that's really insane.

Great post!

Indeed, the ChineseDialectics are Scientific Materialism.... with Social Security built in for the stability of both the State and the Public.

By calling them simply communists wouldn't help us understand either the State or the Chinese People.

China still has long way to go to fully reach its potential...but that road goes through Science and Technology!

I would say that the Chinese are following Scientific Confucianism!

Usually, when something is called scientific, it isn't. Just like science. When something is called something science, it isn't, like computer science, social science, etc. True sciences don't call themselves science. :)

It's a long story.

Mao disagreed with USSR since 1930s, very earlier age of his revolution career. (forgive me using career). Mao built the first PLA in 1927, he is the founder. Mao is the founder of CCP. But Mao got disturbed by Third International of Communist International. Mao got dismissed, his power transferred to some sub branch of Third International in Shanghai, China.

The difference between Mao and Third International is fundamental. CCP is a tool for Third International(Stalin), but Mao want a revolution and unification of China. It's not in Stalin and USSR's interest to see a strong, united China. So using CCP to counter balance KMT is their major interest, so CCP is their bargaining chip.

You see, Mao is visionary, he won't tolerate, but he must tolerate from 1927-1941. The damage is huge and irreversible. It's exactly because of Third International, lead to Fifth encirclement campaign against the Jiangxi Soviet. CCP lost most of the PLA force, and have to start Long March.

In Zunyi Conference, CCP got no better choice, but to shift power to Mao. Mao swiftly move the PLA to west, start epic Battle of Chishui River. It's mission impossible, if you are interested in military. Battle of Chishui River is Mao's greatest military achievement(Mao admitted). This battle shocked CCP and KMT. After that, Mao's military talent is incontestable.

The end of Long March is Yan'an city in 1935. Third International keep disturbing Mao, Mao was very frustrated. He wait.

In 1941, when Germany attacked USSR, Mao start to rebuild CCP in Yan'an (Mao finally got the chance). After that, Mao can push his policy instead of Third International's.

Korean War was triggered by Stalin. I will skip the details. It hurt China badly.

Vietnam War and post of Vietnam War, China and USSR had totally different objectives. Again, hurt China.

All those differences, and conflicts of interest, made Mao, a world revolutionist, who devote his whole life, his family members including his sons to think something else. Mao's life long goal is uplift the poor, empower the poor, eliminate poverty/injustice/colonization/imperialism worldwide. But when China was threaten by USSR (1 million mechanize force on the border, tens of thousands of Nukes), Mao was a nationalist in the end.

Mao changed to a more balanced foreign policy, which is not in USSR's interest. It was USSR's tough foreign policy which pursued a total control of China, pushed China away and to the East of Pacific in 1971.

Mao made final decision. Deng was aware of all those issues, and conflicts with USSR. From 1971-1976, China has already started open up to the west, gradually. But China had to be very careful, because there are legacy of ideology and threat of both USSR and US. It won't happen in 1 day, 1 year.

When Mao died in 1976. Deng get into the center of power. But Deng has much less authority and charisma than Chairman Mao. Mao is one of the best poet in China history, no one can match Mao's charisma. Deng shared his power with Eight Elders. Those elders are Mao's comrade. They understand Mao's vision and policy, with some disagreements on economy and domestic issues. They continued Mao's foreign policy, went even further, because they had less burden of the legacy of ideology. Still got fire backed in 1989.

The open up policy is part of Mao's world policy, which balanced USSR and guarantee the survival of Chinese civilization. It's succeed.

Mao did many things which many Chinese suffered, we had to squeeze ourselves' resource, to get industrialized. Most western powers squeezed colony to do this. Mao had no choice. Mao built more dam than any other leaders combined without large machinery. Red Flag Canal and North Jiangsu Main Irrigation Canal are just 2 of many.

I will stop here, to fully understand Mao. We have to dig into history, the facts, the truth. British are good at making up history of other nations. It's their expertise.

China made the single biggest achievement in the whole human history, but the west pulls all stops to portray China the hell on earth.

As long as a nation can stand united, all problems can be fixed, Chinese government turned China from a fractious disintegrated country where every province had at least one or two actual warlord leaders into a highly highly integrated and united nation.
Now during this current Covid-19 crisis, it further proves how important standing united is for a nation to beat this virus. the Chinese government always focus on beating this virus, US politicians always focus on beating their political rivals, there is a reason why the virus can't be controlled there.
