  1. Chinese "The Art of War" doctrine includes asymmetric warfare.

  2. A significant problem is Taiwan when US business contracts Taiwanese contract manufacturing proxies which then sets up contract manufacturing business activities in China. Woke companies such as Apple, Google and Microsoft have no moral high ground when they have factories via Taiwanese proxies. US defending Taiwan is problematic when Taiwanese contract manufacturing proxies have set up contract manufacturing business activities in China.

  6. @Peter Bond https://supchina.com/2018/03/23/why-chinese-companies-crush-western-tech-giants-in-china/ For example, Bloomberg published an article earlier this month titled “China protectionism creates tech billionaires who protect Xi,” with the author stating, “That’s helped create thriving domestic giants, including Tencent Holdings Ltd. and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.” Mark Natkin, managing director of Beijing-based Marbridge Consulting, was quoted as saying, “As long as they remain protected in the China market, they’ll dominate and use that money to fund their global expansion.” https://www.afr.com/brand/chanticleer/chinese-tech-stocks-pose-an-investment-dilemma-20180815-h1410o Baidu became China's No.1 search engine partly because Google was outlawed. Tencent became the world's largest gaming company and owner of China's No.1 messaging system without needing to compete with Facebook's WhatsApp. Baidu and Tencent are prime examples of Chinese companies simply copying the successful business models created in Silicon Valley and then rolling them out without fear of competition at home. Alibaba, which built the world's largest online retailing business, was allowed to dominate China's small business lending without interference from foreigners or much competition from local government-owned entities.

  7.  @goosecouple  "Lifting people out of poverty" argument is a red herring to China's protectionist condiations. China already has nearly 400 million in middle class.

  8.  @hoannguyen6377  That's just extra fluff without works, hence "faith without works is dead".
