Global South Turns to China and Rejects U.S. “Democracy” 

I am African Caribbean, and China has helped build infrastructure across the Caribbean. America has never done this. They bully, and they make demands that do not benefit the people. I'm looking forward to change.

China has given lot to the world and still giving. Must be admired. Truth alone triumphs

In the USA democracy merely means US corporations and Israelis majority rule

I am the daughter of Gaza. My greetings to you, my Muslim brothers, and I ask you by God, my brothers, to pray for us 🇵🇸.❤❤❤😢

just wanna say the china report is my favourite show thank you amanda and KJ

This is the kind of commentary we need!

USA democracy; the people vote for trump/biden ... the people get netanyahoo.

one of the best English language shows on China

If the Euro-america style democracy was so good, they wouldn't need to bad-mouth others on governance. People will naturally choose a system that best serves their interests

Great job guys. Being an English educated person in Asia we are really surprised to see how the American people are so easily influenced by MSM. The indoctrination is so huge there. Keep safe guys and look forward to your next show.

We should judge governments by their accountability and track record, instead of using simplified labels.

90% of Chinese people own their homes. This is a dream! I speak with many Chinese in China who assume this is normal in the west. I don’t think many realise that less and less are able to buy homes here.

Love your program!!! Professor Hammond is one of the real China experts in the U.S. but I never seen him appearing on the MSM.

The US is in rapid decline.

Prof Hammond is a wonderful American who seeks the truth and is for peace ❤

Great show guys... Keep coming with more shows y'all!!!

I think the thing China is doing right is based on results and investing in the right areas instead of ideology and blaming others.

Good show guys,Amanda and KJ keep up the good work.

I believe "Global Majority" is a better description for labelling them as "3rd World" then lately "Global South" .

中国加油！❤🇨🇳❤

China’s governance model sparks intense debate, and it’s easy to see why. While it’s criticized as “autocratic” from a Western perspective, there’s no denying the tangible results it delivers-lifting millions out of poverty and responding swiftly to crises like COVID-19. The real issue here is how we define success and governance. Is it about freedom of speech, or about ensuring basic needs and economic security? In many ways, China’s system challenges the idea that democracy automatically produces the best outcomes. Maybe it’s time to question the Western narrative and see China’s governance for what it is-complex, effective, and deeply influential globally.

What good is political democracy when the economy is oligarchic? It’s complete theatre. Without economic agency, citizens are paying taxes for services that operate in the interests of other people. “It’s the economy, stupid.” 😅

Enjoy your time in China!

It's almost like a nation united, thrives.

Great conversation! Must have Prof. Ken back ! Thank you!❤😊

I would have loved to visit Confucius Institute. Never heard of them anywhere in U$a. Such has been the level of obfuscation of exchange with Chinese Culture. I visited China in 2007 & found dynamic people & society. Today's advances as I've seen online are amazing.

i'm tire of this description the global south .. please just call the rest of the world the global majority..

This is the only RU-vid channel I watch till the end.

China has real democracy that works for people instead of for big corporate monopolies as in US.

Great video guys.

appreciate Amanda, KJ and the china report team to create a space for knowledge and information! great discussion with Ken Hammond!

Listened in to Ken Hammond talk about the history of China's Cultural Revolution. Will be attending his remaining classes virtually. So glad to find a means of learning about China without it being bogged down by CIA propaganda. ❤️

I absolutely love this show.

Great stuff as always. Thanks for the updates. Peace and love

I am impressed by Ken Hammond's insight into China when he only lived there 5 years during the 1980s

BA in Vietnamese Language and Linguistics, Minor in Asian Studies 1974. China will survive very well. Wish I could live in China near the Vietnamese border since I speak Northern Dialect,

Love your program.

This is my favorite channel. Unbiased and very factual. Very pleasant to watch. Please continue with your great work.

I truly enjoy and appreciate your show. I have never been to China and hope to go someday with my young son...show him some of the incredible places in this world.

Look forward to the next episode. Great content

Thank you for another outstanding discussion on the aspirations, mission and realties in China. Bon Voyage and may you enjoy your family and visit to China.

They know what so called " US DEMOCRACY " does and means. NOPE

Ay always great to get some Ken. He is such a wealth of knowledge on the PRC.

Amazing report

Why is USA the factor in all these wars?something is not right with these people greed greed by USA😮😮😮

China lifts all boats

USA ❤ Double Standard USA ✅ Uyghurs Moslem USA ❎ Palestine Moslem

Great report.

Another wonderfully informative show, thanks 🙏 ❤

Maybe what is missing in Western elites is not so much a basic understanding of what is happening globally as an innerstanding: innate individual conscience. Something that cannot be taught, but is perfectly natural, essentially human.

best report

I agree Professor Ken Hammond is one of the few "real China Experts", not Mearsheimer or Gordon Chang.

We Stand With One☝️China🇨🇳Policy✊🏿🙏🏿💯💘💘💘💗💓

Excellent analysis site

Amanda, I hope you have a nice time with family and friends. Could you do some interviews so we can meet them too and get first hand opinions?

great show. liked and shared.

Highly recommend the book "Why the World Needs China" by Kyle Ferrana, great examination of how China's system works better than that of the US and why countries in the Global South/Global Majority prefer to work with China

Если США вдруг исчезнет, то никто сожалеть не будет, все вздохнут с облегчением.

Excellent discussion - very informative!!

The problem with all ideologies of power and control is unchecked power.

I have talked to people from China here in the United States and they are proud of their homeland. Very nice people from China. ❤

Thanks a lot for this programme

Nationalist China was overthrown by the people in 194o. Just like many others were overthrown 😂and replaced in the past. Taiwan is just a province to be reunited.

Great reporting & great chat with Ken Hammond! I love the video from Douyin & that is one fantastic Black Myth Wukon painting that villager painted! Love it! Thank you KJ & Amanda for your reporting & safe travels to China, Amanda!

Professor: "Putting people first" exactly Right Just like Chinese people said 《為人民服務》🇨🇳 💯🫶👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Americans are spending too much their taxpayers money on US military bases

God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who broughtOh people, we are your sisters, by God 😭😭😭 We do not even find a loaf of bread inside the house that would satisfy you, oh nation of Muhammad.

By God, my brother comes every day and humiliates us and talks about us and wants us to go out to the street because we are unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and talked to the neighbors again and gave us a deadline until the end of the week and we swore to God to let us out of the street now we are in arrears of 60 thousand Yemeni riyals for 3 months rent may God have mercy on us our country is suffering because of this war and we do not find our daily sustenance and we live my mother and sisters our father passed away may God have mercy on him and we do not have anyone in the world to come to us in these harsh circumstances my little sisters went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stood at their door giving them even a piece of bread and by God in whose hand is the heavens and the earth they closed the door and kicked them out and they came back crying dying of hunger no one has mercy on them and now the holiday has come back to me if no one of us helps us with a kilo of flour by God we will die of hunger brother I seek refuge in God and then in you and I want your help for the sake of God I ask you by God you love goodness and help me even if it is about the rent of the house send me a WhatsApp message on this number 00967717413452 and ask for my card name and send it and do not delay may God compensate you with all good My little sisters, look at their situation and help us and save us before they throw us out into the street and humiliate us or my family and I die of hunger.

*A Win-Win for China: The U.S. Role in Global Conflict and Complicity in Genocide* Introduction As the world stands at a precarious crossroads, with the specter of nuclear warfare looming, it is imperative to critically examine the role the United States plays in perpetuating conflicts across the globe. This report highlights the U.S.'s complicity in wars, particularly in Gaza, and explores how these actions are creating opportunities for China to strengthen its relationships, especially with countries in sub-Saharan Africa. U.S. Involvement in Global Conflicts The United States has a long history of military intervention, often justified under the guise of spreading democracy and protecting human rights. However, these interventions frequently lead to widespread destruction and loss of life. The ongoing conflict in Gaza serves as a glaring example of U.S. complicity in violence. The U.S. has provided substantial military aid to Israel, which has been implicated in acts that can be described as genocidal against the Palestinian people. This support not only fuels conflict but also undermines peace efforts in the region. As civilians bear the brunt of these conflicts, the loss of innocent lives raises urgent ethical questions about U.S. foreign policy. The international community watches as the U.S. remains silent or supportive amidst atrocities, leading to accusations of complicity in genocide. China's Rising Influence While the U.S. continues its destructive path, China is strategically positioning itself as a leader in global development. China's investments in infrastructure and development projects across sub-Saharan Africa exemplify a different approach. By focusing on mutual benefits rather than military intervention, China is fostering goodwill and strengthening diplomatic ties with nations that have historically been overlooked by Western powers. China's model offers countries in Africa an opportunity for economic growth without the strings attached that often accompany U.S. aid. This creates a win-win situation for both China and these nations, allowing them to pursue their own paths to development while sidestepping the conflicts fueled by U.S. policies. Call to Action The world is at a critical juncture. With nuclear weapons involved and tensions escalating globally, it is crucial for Americans to take action. I urge every American to contact their congressman and express discontent with ongoing military interventions. Demand that they prioritize peace over war and support diplomatic solutions instead of destructive policies that lead to loss of life and suffering. We must act swiftly to ensure that our government reflects the values of peace and humanitarianism rather than aggression and destruction. The future of global stability depends on our collective voice advocating for an end to war and a commitment to peacebuilding efforts worldwide. Conclusion As the U.S. continues to engage in conflicts that exacerbate suffering, China's alternative approach presents an opportunity for constructive engagement with developing nations, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. It is time for Americans to demand a shift from war to diplomacy, advocating for a future where peace prevails over violence.

Great episode ❤❤

Great video! Could you guys add chapters for each topic next time? Thanks!

Thank you for bringing some light to the subject of "Government for People" and it's incredible results. Many people are not given the truth when it comes to other countries of the world. Keep doing what you do.

If d Collective West dislike d CPC so much they shld not have any relationships w them n d country they govern. It's like "you are repulsive, but I still want to make love w u regularly." That's unprincipled or psychotic behaviour.

What makes China so well is that they invest in their people by their economies. This is also in regards to other countries

US what? D...D...D...Demon? D...D...Democra ... Democrazy???

its called bourgeois democracy where rich can do whatever they want

The artist at the end was super cool, very relaxing video with the food and family.

I am back here in Beijing.

We love china

The video presents a discussion on China's political influence, governance model, and its contrasting relationship with the Global South, particularly in light of recent geopolitical dynamics. Here’s a detailed summary of the key themes and points covered: Geopolitical Context: The conversation begins with a focus on China's military exercises around Taiwan, highlighting the tensions in the region following Taiwan's new president's statements on independence and equal status. The hosts emphasize Taiwan's strategic significance as a historical U.S. military base and its role in U.S. force projection against China. China's Global Strategy: The hosts analyze an article suggesting that China is exporting its autocratic governance model to developing countries. They challenge the narrative that China is imposing its system on others, arguing that many nations are seeking alternatives to Western neoliberal policies. Economic Initiatives: The discussion shifts to China's investment in infrastructure, including a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility being built in the Ivory Coast as part of China's Health Silk Road initiative. This initiative aims to improve healthcare and foster international cooperation, contrasting sharply with the U.S. approach of imposing conditions through aid. Perceptions of Governance: The speakers critique the portrayal of China as solely an autocracy, pointing out that many Chinese citizens actively participate in political processes. They argue that China's governance has effectively improved the lives of millions, while also acknowledging the dynamic political culture within China. Western Interventionism: The conversation highlights the historical context of U.S. and British intervention in Africa, noting their failure to invest meaningfully in the continent and instead perpetuating dependency on foreign aid. The hosts argue that this colonial mindset has led to a loss of credibility for Western powers. Changing Global Dynamics: They discuss the shift towards a multipolar world where more countries are looking to China for inspiration and support rather than adhering to Western models of democracy. This reflects a growing disillusionment with Western hegemony and the recognition of China's development successes. Cultural Misunderstandings: The hosts emphasize the need for a better understanding of different cultural contexts and governance systems. They point out that many misconceptions about China stem from a lack of genuine knowledge about its society and achievements. Call for Awareness: The video concludes with a call for greater awareness among the American public regarding global issues and the realities of China’s development model. The speakers advocate for more informed discussions that consider both the successes and challenges faced by different countries. Overall, the video presents a critical examination of the narratives surrounding China's rise and the implications for global power dynamics, particularly in relation to the U.S. and its historical actions in the Global South.

The Americans have not had a taste of real hot war coming to the US continent, therefore we feel save and insulated from direct consequences.

Communist over capitalism.

Here are the details related to "War with China" in the "Naval Operations Navigation Plan for 2024" referenced in this program: [This is all "pie in the sky" as U.S. GAO and Inspector General reports and investigations have stated explicitly over the last 5 years that NO branch of military service will be combat ready to challenge and win a conflict with a peer military for years to come. The U.S. cannot mathematically catch up to China or Russia for decades, if ever should these 2 countries maintain their current military rate of production.] The Chief of Naval Operations Navigation Plan for 2024 emphasizes readiness for the possibility of war with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) by 2027. The plan outlines several strategic initiatives to prepare for this potential conflict, including: 1. **Project 33**: This initiative aims to accelerate readiness by 2027, focusing on eliminating maintenance delays, integrating robotic and autonomous systems, creating effective command centers, recruiting and retaining personnel, improving quality of service, training for combat, and restoring critical infrastructure. 2. **Expanding the Navy’s Contribution to the Joint Warfighting Ecosystem**: This involves enhancing the Navy's integration with other military services to create a more effective and interconnected warfighting ecosystem. 3. **Technological Advancements**: The plan highlights the importance of integrating new technologies, such as robotic and autonomous systems, to enhance the Navy's capabilities and readiness. 4. **Strategic Focus on the PRC**: The plan acknowledges the PRC as the pacing challenge and emphasizes the need to be more ready than the PRC by 2027, considering the complex multi-domain and multi-axis threat posed by the PRC's integrated warfighting ecosystem. Overall, the plan is designed to ensure that the U.S. Navy is prepared for sustained combat and can decisively win if called upon to engage in a conflict with China. PROJECT 33 Project 33 aims to prepare the U.S. Navy for potential conflict by 2027 through the following seven targeted initiatives: 1. **Eliminating Maintenance Delays**: Ensuring ships, submarines, and aircraft are maintained on schedule to achieve an 80% combat surge ready posture. 2. **Scaling Robotic and Autonomous Systems**: Integrating these systems into routine operations to enhance the reach, resilience, and lethality of the fleet. 3. **Creating Effective Command Centers**: Developing Maritime Operations Centers (MOCs) that are capable of executing fleet-level warfare and facilitating mission command in a distributed, information-centric battlespace. 4. **Recruiting and Retaining Personnel**: Addressing the shortfall of Sailors by achieving 100% rating fill for active and reserve components and ensuring deploying units are manned to 95% of billets authorized. 5. **Improving Quality of Service**: Enhancing living conditions and support for Sailors, including eliminating involuntary living aboard ships in homeport and providing quality unaccompanied housing. 6. **Training for Combat**: Implementing reliable, realistic, and relevant live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) training environments to prepare warfighters for high-end combat scenarios. 7. **Restoring Critical Infrastructure**: Repairing and upgrading infrastructure that supports Navy Task Critical Assets to improve operational readiness, particularly in the Pacific. These initiatives are designed to ensure the Navy is more ready for sustained combat as part of a Joint and Combined force, with a specific focus on countering the People’s Republic of China as the pacing challenge.

Let US Prey...with God on our side...American 'democracy' in action...

Win/Win is so easy and without any ethical violation when a zero sum game player is so paradoxically eager to lose and has an excellent game plan to self inflict itself do that. It will learn that lesson again in a country far from China. At great cost to those it supports even greater cost to those receiving that support. Find the full poem here: "THE WONDERFUL “ONE-HOSS-SHAY” And Other Poems By Oliver Wendell Holmes". Required reading by the USA! The last lines of the poem......... What do you think the parson found, When he got up and stared around? The poor old chaise in a heap or mound, As if it had been to the mill and ground! You see, of course, if you're not a dunce, How it went to pieces all at once,- All at once, and nothing first,- Just as bubbles do when they burst. End of the wonderful one-hoss shay. Logic is logic. That's all I say. WONDERFUL ONE-HOSS SHAY (WHEELWRIGHT) BACKWARDS {a-political extract}

Marxist who is generaly really supportive of China, and have a lot of genuinely positive notes on their democratic system. Such as being responsive in a way that gains them popular support (something the west fails at), and There system of direct communication/questions with government. However I would like to hear from others who agree on those points about some concers I have and If they are valid, exaggerated or downplayed. 1. No one voted against xi in his election. Not a single of the representatives. While I understand the consensus nature of the CCP but that's a red flag I haven't been able to shake. 2. I was listening to a CCP rep talking to Mehdi Hasan (which is the only reason I took it seriously, because It came from the CCP mas mouth). But when Mehdi asked if you could call Xi a liar, something as simple as that he said you can't do that and you would be dealt with swiftly. Which has really shifted the way I feel. I'd love to hear some genuine input. Not any, I'm an idiot for questioning the western narrative and not instantly hating China after being exposed to this information!!! But also no, OMG how are you falling for and spreading the Empires propaganda. Because I am understanding of both sides (more of the later, but I try to be open). Thanks!

100 miles of highway completely unmanned. Was this a repave or was this a complete new road? That is significant. Its possible to build a houses unmanned as well and projects in dangerous areas.

China is helping to build the world while US is waging wars, it is a glaring contrast of foreign policy. Africa , South East Asia and South America will benefit greatly from China’s infrastructure projects. Look at countries like Hungary , Spain , Serbia , Indonesia , Malaysia, Laos , Kenya etc. … they are all pivoting towards China. Build a better world with China.

People recent autocratic rules by superpower and prefer more democratic arrangements set by mutual negotiations. It is ariduculas to ask why the global south moving away from demcocracy and moving towards autocracy.

Could you guys please do a bit survey among mainland say Shanghai and Taipei life styles and what they exactly know about the world around them? I believe Taipei people need to have a lot more understanding of what’s going on in real life politically economically socially religiously etc

*The irony is striking!* The USA, once a dominant superpower, has primarily brought war and destruction to the world, while China focuses on building and enhancing infrastructure globally. People are waking up to the reality that the biggest threat to humanity comes from the USA, which consistently supports war and destruction rather than peace. The USA and Britain squandered their opportunity when they neglected to invest in Africa constructively, opting instead to maintain the continent's poverty and reliance on aid. Their outdated thinking is evident, and it may ultimately lead to their downfall.

University of Akron canceled its Confucius institute partnership. I was worried my old high school nearby (NIHF STEM) removed its Chinese language program, but luckily the teachers there were able to create new partnerships, and the program is still going strong. It's the only high school I know of in the area teaching Mandarin.

Western economic and political methods are over 10,000 years old, basically " Might (wealth & weapons) is right " , this system is wildly out of date in the modern world.

Tencent Vs Nvidia (China vs US company): Tencent Profit last year? 40 billion dollars. After taxes: 16 billion dollars. Nvidia profit last year? 32 billion dollars After Taxes: 29 billion dollars. DO YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE? this is why China can afford all the crap it can afford and why the west cannot, because in China the capitalist minority are shit scared of the government and so not only pay their taxes but they and their corporations pay more in tax than an equivalent western company does to western governments and this is why the capitalist minority of the west and the politicians in their pockets want China neutered because her growth of power and left wing governance is a direct threat to the supremacy of the capitalist minority over this earth that they have enjoyed for centuries along with their corporations and the primarily western states from which they were born.

Very good channel. The guest, the professor, surely knows what he's talking about and gives very frank and objective opinions. I hope more American intellectuals would speak according to their conscience, unlike most American and Western politicians who are lying to their people and the world.

The world has changed, and western policy analysts don't get that. Majority of people in the rest if the world want to maintain good relations with all major powers instead of having spheres of influence. If western policy makers can change their mentality, then they'll realise that people from the Global South will be amiable to what they have to offer. The condescending "we know what's good for you" attitude must be left in the dustbin of history!

#LONGLIVERESISTANCE

Wow just Wow

Chinese are most balanced. They value family first, friends and food. Then business
