Let China sleep for when she wakes, the world will tremble.
As China is about adaptation, not transformation, it is unlikely to change the world dramatically should it ever assume the global driver's seat. But this does not mean that China won't exploit that world for its own purposes.
China never had good intentions. Since the late 1980s, its stated aim has been world domination, technologically and militarily.
I foresee the Chinese ruling the world. What are you going to do to stop it? No president of the United States will ever have enough power to stop the Chinese when they want to take over the world.
Today, a socialized China is standing toweringly in the Eastern World
We see China becoming an unstoppable force. It's a huge threat and a huge opportunity.
The tail of China is large and will not be wagged.
Quoted by Winston Churchill in his January 17, 1952 address to Congress.
Beijing's imperial reach extends far and wide, from Taiwan and Xinjiang to the South China Sea and beyond.
