Happy 94th birthday, the man who changed China

Jiang had normalized relation with Vietnam after cold war.
Actually it was Deng Xiaoping. He started the war against Vietnam. he started invasion. He was the one that agreed to normalization. He said he wanted to see that happened before he went. So to his credit despite Deng was a war criminal we have to give him big credit. He was a charismatic leader.
Jiang Zemin was a person of silent confucism. Diligent and honest.
Xi Jingping is like a clown. He makes noise everywhere.
 
.
He is a very controversial figure in China, I believe, along with some mistakes, his biggest contribution was to transfer his full power to the younger generations of leaders after he retired and set a very healthy system of power transfer and leadership seccession in China.

Not that controversial. Primarily under him the rich were allowed into the party and communist purists hated him for that. But to continue as the ruling party you'll want the elites to join you rather than oppose you.
And one of the major contribute aside from establishing a succession protocols is to stop the military from running their business.

Jiang speaks fluent english.He came to power as part of the “west appeasement” strategy when CCP was desperately trying to mend fences after the 1989 crackdown

gone are the days China has to make itself more appealing to attract American $$$, as evidently only the “no fucks given” attitude towards the US can be expected from Xi nowadays
