2024 Future of U.S. and China Conference: Risk or Reward? - Gauging China’s Economic Outlook 

China must have done something right otherwise the U.S. government would not be so insecure and scared.

Amazingly, one panelist says no threats by US or Taiwan! There are over 200 military bases encircling China with missiles aiming at it! And US navy patrolling up and down China's coastlines, including the Taiwan Strait! And US military on Taiwan itself when Taiwan is recognised by UN (and US) as a part of China. Imagine this happening to US with Chinese naval fleet in the Gulf of Mexico and Chinese ships payrolling the California's coastlines. And Chinese military in Cuba or even some US territory?! Aren't these panelists even aware of their bias?

This was, frankly, a moronic discussion. The panel's advice for China was essentially "deregulation" of the economy, which is precisely what led to the 2008 sub-prime mortgage crisis. Also, at a time when the entire world is making national security their number one priority, and at a time when the U.S. and its allies are sending warships and planes to China's shores on a weekly basis, while also arming separatists on Taiwan Island (officially recognized by almost all countries as a part of China); the panelists recommend that China ignore national security and only focus on economics. The only western economy which is doing reasonably well at present seems to be the U.S., as the one panelist explained, but the U.S. federal government added $2 trillion of new debt in 2023, so it is obviously deficit-spending to a tremendous degree in order to keep the impression that its economy is doing 'relatively well'.

You guys certainly have not been to Chengdu, Chongqing and Yibin for example with incredible growth. It’s like saying that the Appalachians represent American economic story compared to say Austin or Cupertino. You give a fairly balanced view but does not take into account Chinese family support, civilizational history and multi generational homes. China is not America with individualistic attitude. It is not so bad here.😊

Doom and gloom on Chinese economy! What about the gloom and doom of the US or EU economy? Why not be proactive in suggesting a master recue plan for the USE and EU economy?

It is fashion now to paint China as down in Economics. But in 2023 the IMF 's figure showed that China had still 5% growth in GDP which was still the highest in the world. The current Gov. projection is still 5 % for 2024. You do NOT see beggars on the street. The Chinese debt may be high. However comparing with US, the US National Debt is over 34 Trillions and still growing rapidly. Chinese economy is NOT dying period. Donald Trump in 2016 forced China to stop saying " China 2025 ". China complied . Next year is 2024. Gentlemen and people around the world just keep your eyes open and see in 2025's China. US always wants to paint any country as inferior or backward , comparing with USA. But the US domestic issues are the tremendous, the infighting, the homicides, the rampant immigration problems, the high inflations, the failure of proxy war in Ukraine , the assistance of GAZA Genocide and sufferings of the poor and lower echelons people , ......... etc. the list is endless. Take care your own problem before ridiculing China and other countries.

The person on the left is right on his observation and recommendations. He really wishes China doing better!

Talk about the gap between rich and poor, there is no country in the world has bigger gap between rich and poor than the the U.S. By the way, don’t blame China for learning from the U.S.

Why include 16-20 year old youth when you investigated unemployment rate?

US interest service on 34 trillions is 1 trillions per month. 100 USD = 720 RMB China interest service according to the panel is 1 trillions RMB.

The Chinese guy who is doing the speaking is doing an excellent job btw. As someone learning Chinese as a second language - I'm amazed at how he's able to transfer his charisma into a second language and do such a fantastic job

China is booming for tourism industry. Pandemic changed local people's view for real estate, and people do not expect the property market of real estate is a good investment any more.

This anti-China sentiment is getting really old

Great discussion, thank you so much. I'd love to see more of this

That last joke was in bad taste.

Andy nailed it!

Not sure I need to hear from a failed bank 😅

Another Chinese economy collapse theorists. Lol

What a joke, svb is alive and well ???

😅

老白男听说中国经济要崩溃了，心想终于让我在死前等到了

These people talk lies. Speak nonsense. They only see one inch

Li Song: "We have three extinguished experts on Chinese economy" LOL ! We're here to dissect the state of Chinese geoeconomics, Li. Not to dissect corpses!

Semi-experts, at most. Can't believe it.

this failed SVB Li Song is a dishonest lier

Fake guys love you china

16 year old youth unemployed?😂😂😂

The guests this time round are quite objective and well informed, unlike many other times at this Asia Society forum which were rather biased with misinformation n smearing
