Mexico should be a given. Places like Argentina and Brazil should be economic power houses. Crazy that they aren't to me but as an American I hope they do! India should be too... Also I've seen videos much like this on the Phillipines and Indonesia. Which js surprising as those are island nations which to me always feel like are resource poor but it is changing fast! I would like to see more peaceful balance in the world and definitely don't want a new, new, world order dictated by the CC P. Edit- I said the Phillipines but I meant Vietnam. A lot of people are talking about it becoming big in cheap manufcaturing as China economy and demographics mature.

Change won't happen overnight. Sadly the cartels have so much power there from what some who lived there tell me. Getting worse in many ways since the violence to innocence can be unreal and the local government is either too weak to do much or corrupted themselves. "Before it was gang on gang violence. Now you can be killed just because someone can". I know this has also stopped investors. Yet as an American I want more stability and peace on our side of the world period. Mexico, Brazil, and especially Argentina should be up there in the most powerful and successful countries. I have high hopes that will happen in my life time.

@alexanderphilip1809 You took the words out of my mouth. I have absolutely no love for the C C P. Yet western governments cannot pivot and change as quickly as they can so I will give that is. If they want a rail built? It doesn't matter if your village is ancient and your family has lived on the same land for centuries - you're in the way- oh and they'll flood the neighboring valley for that dam at the same time.

@Homer-OJ-Simpson Ya know I said Phillipines but Vietnam is where the manufcaturing will be taken place! My fault. Can't believe I confused the two. Phillipines is still expected to grow pretty well. Not sure what markets though.

@Homer-OJ-Simpson Saw an article saying it will excel in the tech industry in the future I'm wondering if that is what I meant. I don't see it making computer chips anytime soon from the big ones. Europe, China, America, South Korea, Japan, and of course Taiwan. I should've read the article but was busy. Hardware specifically is a pretty tough and competitive industry where cheap labor doesn't always mean success. Anyway love the people even though their leader is eccentric and crazy AF to me haha. Hope them the best... Grew up with a lot of Filipinos and love them and know many there are still incredibly poor. Half of the staff at my dialysis clinic are Filipino and they are lovely but it is sad to hear what their families go through if they don't send them money.

@ArawnOfAnnwn Vietnam and China seem to have a complicated relationship from what I've read. Basically everyone has a better relationship than the US and China of late haha. China blames the US for what they are doing in the South China sea thst is pissing off countries like the Phillipines, Japan, India, South Korea, sometimes Singapore. A lot of Anti Chinese sentiment is growing. A lot of mistrust. Not saying America is any better. Anyway forgot what video I was on. America definitely needs to improve relationships in SA. I want to see SA get a world power in my life time. Brazil and Argentina both dropped the ball.
