This year, Chinese community had celebrated 60th anniversary People's Republic of China as National regime collapsed after the founder of People's Republic of China Mao Zedong stood before a sea of people atop Tiananmen Gate proclaiming, in high-pitched Hunan dialect. The moment was marked with pride and hope that the Communist's victory had vanquished the Nationalist regime correlation with onslaught of the Japanese Invasion. There were l
argely a homegrown revolution for CCP. In Mao Zedong's vision is to regain China's
(wealth & power), dignity and international respect. The failure of Qing Dynasty to restores Chinese's dignity after the Emperor lose in war. Still it was a long ago but today, China has built its juggernaut empire and it was. With 1.3 billion population, China was among the top countries that enable to sway world's economic. if Mao was there it was happy with China's progression. China is the world largest populous and
industrious nation is the world third largest economy and trading nations. it had surpassing Germany last year as the world leading exporter and it set to take Japan next year. It also has becomes a global innovator in science and technology and it's build top high-class universities.
Brief History..According to Researchers, the first community live in china is Yuang Shao people and it's hail from yellow river. Yuang Shao people praticed
The Great Wall, one of seven weird things in the world.. History- The Great Wall was built in 221 b.c. by the Chin Dynasty under Shih Huang Ti Emperor. On the Shih Huang Ti era, his has used an Autocratic system which under his rules, people must obey to him and forced to conscripted to build the Great Wall to defend his territories from HuangSu attack. The construction of the Great Wall has involve big expenditure indeed more people died during the construction. As much as 100,000 workers have built this Wall and time consumed about 100 years to finish it. The Great Wall was finished under the Han Dynasty which Han Wu Ti Emperor is well-known as "Military Emperor" and Continue to build Great Wall on west part..a mass migratation to feed them. Several decades ago, chinese was commanded by Emperors and Empress in many Dynasties. Since 19 century, there were nine reign of dynasties namely
Shang dynasty,Chou, Chin, Han, Sui, Tang, Sung, Ming and Ching dynasty. In the most prominent dynasty is Chin dynasty which the preliminary process to build 'the Great Wall' to impedes Hsung Hu people from attack Chin territories. the Great Wall was built by manpower and the costs also exorbitant to Chin Emperor as well as more its people died in the course of building process. As a result, Chin Emperor has succumbed by its cronies. The building of the Graet Wall has continues again in Han Dynasty and as much as 100,000 man were conscripted by Emperor to build the Great Wall and 100 days time consuming to finish it. Each empire also has religion disparities such in Shang dynasty, its communities believe that the emperor was
son of heaven and their belief in calamities such droughts, floods and so forth, were among the sign of the Emperor does not have power anymore and they entitle to overthrow the Emperor. Perhaps it was a long religion view, today China has three main religious and Buddhism is the main ones. Uighurs and Tibetan was Minority group in China while Han the bigger majority who dominant china politic.
Political CreedsAs a result of i
ts previous reign and dynasties, a lot of community have different point of political creed. Tibetan who believe in Buddhism are not believe in Communists and Uighurs dominated by Islam also believe the same thing. So what can CCP do is to reach this minority group and get support from them. Since 1949, China's political system does not changes much but it's still a Leninist system and an Oligarchy of its self-selected leaders. The structual and essential of the system remains largely same, the process of politics has changed quite a lot. In the past, there only two exit paths from officialdom; purges and death. Now mandatory retirement is firmly implemented. nowadays Marxist and Leninist ideology plays little, if any, role in their decison making. But, people didn't have choice to select its leader- because of undemocratic and no pallot boxes. But Communist party has proved it can manage it and remarkably adaptable and borrowing elements from different countries and political system such republic where there were only two King- president and prime minister. The collapse of Soviet Union, Nazisme and Communist Party Malaya (CPM) has make CCP more experienced to sneak the

best elements and political system. The CCP's sustenance on its political stabilation and its economy are evidents to the success of Communisme compare to Democracy where in US many obstacles have engender more blood-bath.
Accentuation in Economic..Several decades ago, China frequently focus on their basic needs. Agriculture was a selected choice to expand its crops which most of its people work on it. Chinese people presume that agriculture are the holy work because of crops contribute save their lives. By virtue of this verdict, most of chinese trader did not make any connections with outside people and they believe that traders or merchants are bad people or liar because of they obtaining profits from poor people. But today, it was reflecting on it, China was considered as major role to sways the world economics. Since 1949, years after World War 2 ended, China's transformation was recogised the dramatic improvement in China's global posture. 60 years ago, Chinese have cut off from World and having diplomatic recognition only from a relatively small number of nations. China was excluded from United Nation (UN) and embroiled in the Korean Peninsular War and the cold war, which brought further isolation. During Korean War, China more in favor to North Korea by virtue of its co-communism with North. Years after, following the 1945 Geneva Conference on Indochina,
China has gone more further isolated and they also did not receive world aid and as a result, its economy stagnated. At tail-end of the 1970s, China has kick off its new economy policy by introduced a new market-oriented reform programme. The world centiments over the China also witnessing how China turn its economy from low-cost manufacturing base to the higher manufacturing base. China has succeed in shaping its economic and rolled out the red carpet to attract foreign investments and paved the way to to become a leading exporter to the rest of the world.
Economy bottom out after Stimulus worth $586 billion
to galvanised domestic demand. China was the first
country out of recession and 3rd Largest Economic.
This year, when the world was hit by financial conflogaration, more bankruptcy reported, Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in negative aroung the world, but to
China it was an oppurtunity to grabs the limelight as world leading economy. In 2006, China's GDP at 11.6% and went up 0.3 to 11.9% in 2007 and went down at 9% in 2008. This year, China's GDP in first quarter stood at 6.1% compare to second quarter at 7.9%. While US and Euro nations suffer a slump in its economy, China the first and Asean was out of recession. Its key exports also recorded high in November 2009 grew at 16.1% due to
massive stimulus package worth
$586 billion (RM 2 trillion) about 13% of GDP. Furthermore, factory production has begun to edge up, in part because Chinese consumers spend more money especially Car. The nation's consumer index in last month rose 0.6% year on year (y-o-y), the first increase since January. The rise in CPI was a conducive growth in recovery and job is expected to rise in next year as boost in spendind power to job creation. According to the world Bank, estimates that China's GDP in the next year reaching at 9% and in 2011 at 11% as China would continue its fiscal policy to boosting domestic demand and tax breaks in China.
China's GDP in 2008-Q2 of 2009, recorded growth..Japan's concern about mass production in its industries would beat Japan's rank as the second world largest economic. China has accomplished its vision as the world largest foreign reserves which now stands at $2.3 trillion (RM 8 trillion) in US Treasuries. With dollar depreciated in earlier this year, sparked off concern among the Chinese top Officials. When Premier Wen Jiabao proclaimed in March that he was worried about China's vast US dollar holdings. Washington's unwillingness to rai
se interest rates was fueling asset bubbles in stocks and property markets as well as putting economic recovery at risk.
Still, China's policy in insulating its exports make the Shanghai exchange soar more than 80% this year. it was the best performance among the major markets. As more nations depend on producing commodities, such as Australia and Brazil have benefited immensely as demand from China has driven up the price of raw materials. In International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecasts that in the three years from 2008 to 2010, China with tremendous growth in exports, account for almost three-quarters of the world's economic growth. Recall during the colonial era, Chinese's behaviour against traders, presumed them as
Barbarian was may correct. but the reality is it reflects to China's traders nowadays.
Tourism sector shows an increasing in domestic tourism.. (CNBS-sources)US in reality, depend on China's exports while US is the biggest imports of goods and services from China. This mutual respect was a turning point for both countries to boosting demand and intertwine each other. But the main problem is different consumer in two biggest countries. The consumption levels in US remain higher about 70% contributed in its GDP, while China 40% less than US consumptions. Savings rate in US still fragile compare to Chinese. But the true is China should not depend on its export to makes its economic more sustainability growth. As dollar this continuous depreciate this year, China's foreign reserves at a risk. That's why now China has lent more money to its investor to invest in overseas to support Yuan currency.
Growth in manufacturing sector has rose 16.1% in November and continue to in uptrend next year. This was a good news for investors to seek more m
oney on return to investment. With the largest population, a deep pool of labour and hire rates also low as more people expected to enter the labour market during the recovery. Earlier this year, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in China was totalled $7.5 billion (RM 25.7 billion) and in March FDI stood at $8.4 billion (RM 28.8 billion). The tremendous growth in FDI is due to stimulus package ($ 586 billion) to galvanise domestic and external demand as recession hit badlt to its key exports. According various sources, Consumers confidence rose from the first quarter to third quarter. On top of that, China's products are more cheaper than US and Europe. This was true when we
Foreign Direct Investment Growth in China- Commercego out to covenient store and we will see 'made in China' cheaper than the others. On the other hand, Most Electronic compenent will be install in China such as Computer Makers DELL and LENOVO. But the main problems with China Made are the quality, which many people claimed that China Made weren't cater world standard products.
Banks in China also stepping up its base lending to consumers. This year, the proportion of car sales financed with loans has doubled nearly 25%. Credit Card spending also rose 40% at first nine months of the year compare to same period last year. Retail sales in China was recorded at 17% a year after adjusted with inflation. This is augur well for government massive stimulus package which took effect now. Rebates for rural families have offered by Government to buy more cars and household appliances and has cut tax sales on cars with small engines.
According National Bereau of Statistics, China has invested $56 billion (RM 192 billion) overseas in 2008, up 111% over 2007. Another report says that China was the biggest acquirer in the Asia Pacific in the first quarter of this year. PetroChina Co. the biggest Oil Company in China, completed the purchase of 45.5% in Singapore Petroleum Co. last June. On the other hands, China Petrochemical Corp (SINOPEC) announced in June that Company in the pipeline to buy Geneva-based Addax Petroleum Corp for $7.3 billion (RM 25 billion) completed in August. XinHua news agency described the purchase as the largest overseas takeover by China Oil Co. The overseas investment was among the government courage to balancing Yuan currency. Nowadays, 37 Chinese Multinational corporations rank among FORTUNE's top 500 global companies, while 450 out of the FORTUNE 500 American companies have production lines and business in China. China has becomes the world's largest reciepent of FDI. China is now more focusing on the energy supply, where China now consumes 16% od global energy resources and the third largest consumer of oil.
Trade Stance..
China tried to emphasize the how much he has common with US president. From climate change to nuclear nonproliferation, China and the world share extensive common interest and broad prospects for cooperation on a series of major issues important to Mankinds. To China relationships with other nation especially US was described an important trade. Most notably if engage in Tariff and other restrictions. For example, this year, Barrack Obama pledged that US would increase its Tariff on China Tyres, resulted an increase in tyre price. Two days later, China's Minister of Commerce said the government will probes into dumping and subsidies of chicken and auto parts from the US Company. This make a discord between Beijing and Washington.
The Comsumptions bet
ween US and China also diferent, Americans spent about $10 trillion (RM 30.4 trillion) last year, compared with China about $1.4 trillion (RM 4.8 trillion) and consumptions in US accounts for 70% of GDP compared with about one-third in China, according to Morgan Stanley. Still, there is a lopsided US-China trading relationships. In the first nine months of 2009, Trade deficits occured between US-China with China stands at $165.8 billion (RM 568.7 billion) so far, down 16% because of the global economic slowdown. The deficit continuously rose to $22 billion (RM 75.5 billion) in September.
China president Hu Jintao & Barrack Hussein Obama,
In Beijing's Cavernous Great Hall of the People of
Nov. 17 to discuss about bilateral trades and
mutual interest in Economic.In November 2009, China has accused US for trade protectionism, but forceful rebutting Beijing's charges. America has loss tens of billion dollar because of trade restriction by China's authorities. According to Gary F. Locke a US Commerce Secretary, less than 4% of Chinese exports to the US are affected by trade restrictions, roughly equivalent to the percentage of US exports to China that face sanctions. US has focused the bilateral trades with China to boost consumption between two giants economic, in particular about restarting the stalled appreciation of the Yuan. That will make up a drop in US spending power and help redress the trade imbalance.
China has becomes Manufacturing superpower and the workshop of the world and its producing two-thirds of all Photocopiers, Microwaves and Shoes; 60% cellphone, 55% DVDs, 30% of personal computers and 75% of children toys. And this lead China to third largest economic in the world and by next year, China will keep the pace with Japan to seize the second throne. In 2020 China's vision to becomes the biggest economic surpassing US and certainly it will sparks concern for the White House.
Reinventing Education...Several centuries ago, the education system in China, only based on getting their post in civil servant. According to Chinese's Stratification, inteligents people will be at high places. Chinese society immensely viewing intelectual as Rich person because of having power, top ranking officer and have a basic needs of life. Chinese's education policy different for most Dynasties, usually students will sit an exam based on several layers. For example, if they want to continue the nest degree, they must pass the previous examination. Based on Chinese's policy, those have obtained the first degree will be dubbed as
Hsiu Tsai and continuously till the higher degree called
Chin Shih. Usually those obtain the higher degree will post to become Majistret.
Six decades ago, Mao has spent his life to tranform Chinese in his Utopian, Socialist, and Revolutionary vision and he tried to create a
'new socialist man'. Mao successor Deng and his compatriots came to power in 1978. Deng has begun a new policy and openess policy to revive its economic and education system after three decades China was isolated by World Society. The end is over, three decades under the Deng reign, Chinese have fully blossomed and the transformation ineducation has made Chinese more freedom to further their studies in overseas. More than 200 million have lifted out of poverty and the number of growing middle-income continuously rising.
Enrollment of foreign students in America, which China the first in ranking. Nowadays about 21 million Chinese students have attended at University. Access to education has become widespread. Today, 21 million students attend at University, While 300,000 study abroad every year. Approximately 206 million Chinese children attend primary and secondary schools. Chinese were among the top ranking enrolment in US to further their studies in higher education. From 1997-2008, about 8.5% the average annual growth and more than 200,000 thousand student from China study in America. Long time ago, Mathematic in China has surpassing Europe in 14 century. But the true for Chinese people is about their poverty rates. China remains poors countries by Global Standards, some 207 million still live below World Bank Poverty Levels on less than $1.25 (RM 4.29) per day.
Social Security..China may possessing an immune in Economic, but it relatively remains poor country, with an annual per capita income of $6,000 (RM 20.580) compared with US about $39,000 (RM 133,770) and $33,400 (RM 114,562) in the Europe. Middle class in China only have an income of about $12,000 (RM 41,160). Most Chinese still can afford Proton Exora but let alone a BMW car. But there are many argument about accumulation of per capita income. Maybe Americans income are more further but based on standard of living, American standard still below by virtue of jobless crisis compared with China. Earlier this year, Many economists predicted that America would log on to massive unemployment country. According survey by Bloomberg, US Unemployment rates next year reach at 10% and in 2011 would going down as much as 9%. But still, America unreaching Full workforce because the data showed American Jobless remain above 4%.
While China has made much progress, it still has many blemishes. Treatment between two minorities group i.e. Uighur and Tibetans is the Achilles' heel for Beijing. As riots last year in Tibet and recent months a discord between Uighur and Han ethnic. Last year during the clash between China's Armies and Tibetans disrupted Beijing's face as Olympic Beijing begun. The blood-bath infuriate many leaders looking at Beijing as 'need political revamp'. And recent months, The clash between Uighur and Han ethnic caused World leaders look down on Beijing to manage its ethnic relationships.
The Unrest between Tibetans and Police..... Yet, Corruption perceptions in China also Lower compared with Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei and ASEAN countries. In 2009, Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) in China remains lower at 3.6 rank at 79 in Transperancy. Confidence range stoods at 3.2-4.2. Still, there is need to be done by Chinese's authority to tackle Corruption in China. Singapore rank at 3 in CPI the one ASEAN countries recieved the higher ranking. China should learn from Singapore. In 2008, Huang Guangyu, China's richest man, an electronic tycoon more than $588 million (RM 2.02 billion) has been charged with bribery. Huang, 3
9, was charged over shareprice manipulation linked to Shandong Jintai Group, a medicine manufacturer owned by his brother, Huang Junqin, economic magazine
Caijing reported earlier this year. In 2003, former flower magnate Yang Bin, once listed as China’s second richest man with an estimated fortune of $900 million( RM 3.1 trillion), was jailed 18 years for bribery, fraud and illegal use of farmlands. As corruption hit China, time to more rules be made to better guide the behaviour of China's Tycoon.
the levels of filtering of the internet website. China's authority will shutting down more websites after the Google has put dozens porn videos on search engine. Currently, as much as 700 websites have been shut down. These are among the issues need to be tackle by Chinese, but still, China's decision to shutting down more websites believed have porn, ethnic and political elements, was not a wise decesion. According to China daily, 700 websites have been shut down and more will be shut. it was stemmed from Google search engines believed have put dozens of porn videos to its web. but decision to closed website is bad, they limit the people freedom to surf internet to find an useful information. So to the government it was only to protects its people from crimes and unuseful website such as Facebook, Myspace and Twitter
.
Greenies Issues...China is the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases and the world most polluter country. Green issue has been risen since 1997 when the world begun to signed a robust global agreement in Kyoto Protocol. Since six decades ago, China's population has rose quadruple and its now totalled 1.3 billion. In terms of Geography, China was a huge land and have four seasons. besides How can government control its people from start open burning, throwing rubbish into sea and so forth. One of the worst pollution in China is Air pollution. Last year, when China begun to open tourcher in Beijing, some of tourist said,
'why so much, much hazes in China'. Of course, this one of the effect of industrial nation such as Brazil and India. Much more smoke vomitted by factories thr
ough unfilter funnel, still it was the effects increasing in FDI especially if involved foreign companies. such as US oil company mired in dumping oil in Africa region.
Copenhagen in Denmark, which China has pledged to curb its emission of CO2 and the use of fossil fuels per unit of economic output by 40-45%. This is the hottest topic since earlier december, and for China this the best place to make a firm decision to curbings climate change in future. Kyoto Protocol which ended 2010 has failed in made tougher agreements againts developed and developing countries. China has been accused by western nations as China was the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases. But China has retaliated to the western as a rich nation, they failed to finance poor countries in developing science and technology. In Copenhagen which ended on Saturday, Many activists, Voulanteers and Scienctists, described it as the 'failure in Copenhagen talks' because of emerging countries such as Brazil, China and India have pledged to reduce its Carbon, but Europe nations remains ascribe China for these matters.
Yesterday, China condemned claims ascribed to Britain's climate change minister that it had "hijacked" negotiations in Copenhagen, saying on Tuesday the accusations were an attempt to sow discord among poor countries. The sharp words from Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu were the latest baring of diplomatic bad blood after the talks in Copenhagen ended on Saturday with a broad, non-binding accord that fell short of hopes for a robust global agreement on how to curb greenhouse gas emissions. Jiang was responding to a report in Britain's
Guardian newspaper that said the Environment Minister Ed Miliband had accused China, Sudan, Bolivia and other left-wing Latin American nations of "hijacking" efforts to reach deeper agreement on how to fight global warming. At the end, The accord set a target of limiting global warming to a maximum 2 degrees Celsius over pre-industrial times seen as a threshold for dangerous changes such as more floods, droughts and rising seas. But it did not say how this would be achieved. It held out the prospect of $100 billion (RM 343 billion) in annual aid from 2020 for developing nations, but did not specify precisely where this money would come from. Decisions on core issues such as emissions cuts were pushed into the future.
Copenhagen Objective: which begun on 7-18 December to talks about climate change. Copenhagen was held due to the Kyoto Protocol 1997
which ended in next year.. China will reduce it CO2 at 40-45% in the next year. The developed nations will finance $10 billion (RM 34.3 billion) a year, three years program to fund poorer nations. The European Nation have been criticised for its failure to raise its unilateral emission cut offer to 30 percent from 20 percent, was ill-prepared for Copenhagen Talks. Negative reaction to the accord came to a boil in Germany, where environmental groups, churches, industrialists and economists slammed the compromise as a disaster. China has advocated at the Copenhagen Talks to aim reducing gases emission by 50% in 2020. But, European refused to accord with Copenhagen and it was described by Wang Yi, a climate change policy researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing said "Everyone is raising the banner of protecting the planet, but in reality they are protecting their own interests." Perhaps for China, it has poised for the next greenies issue challenge in waiting to burst.
At the end...
As People's Republic of China commomerates the 60th anniversary, there are many issues remain shackling its people, economic, health-care and education need. The people's Republic of China has endured for six decades and has overcome a wide variety of serious domestic crises, border wars and international isolation. Its strengths and adaptability have repeatedly been underestimated by all corners.
China faces enormous challenges, since a massive shift of population from rural areas to big cities such as Beijing and Canton, cleaning up decades of environmental degradiation, continuing to provide the increase in prosperity that has underpinned political stability. Green issue has made China more mature in decision making to tackle its gases, even though many President Hu Jintao counterparts revile and blaming China for the discord of Copenhagen, China has learnt something that western allies didn't know it: in the midst of Financial Crisis, China by its own weapon has lifted its economy out of recession compared with Britain, US even Japan as well. This is how CCP built its empires without Soviet Union and Marximilism, it can survive from financial storm, health-care, ethnic unrest, and education matter. The times have come for western and its allies to learn something which ingrained in People's Republic of China...
