  3. The risks of investing in China are too high. There are safer less risky places to invest. India, Vietnam, Thailand, Mexico, Canada and the USA are better places to invest.

  4. China WAS the worlds manufacturer. It is time to bring manufacturing and investment back closer to end users. The supply chain is broken. Freedom of movement and freedom of speech are not appreciated until they are gone.

  5. China's economy is in slow decline. The virus lock downs will speed it up. Lower GDP, higher unemployment, property developer bankruptcies, small and medium businesses going broke, local governments running out of cash, local banks running out of cash and individual personal despair of the population will lead to lower consumer spending.

  10. Maybe Europe and the USA should require Chinese car companies to have a European or American partner to gain access to the market. That is what China did to all other auto makers. China should be treated the same way they treated companies coming into their market. China has huge import fees for Foreign auto makers. Europe and USA should do the same to Chinese auto makers.

  11. Apple has been too slow to diversify its production away from China. The risks in China are too high.

  12. The wolf warrior policies have consequences, making enemies of your people , your neighbors and the rest of the world.

  13. Every country needs to be as self sufficient as possible in producing food and products needed within the country. The pandemic has shown us the problem with relying only on China for PPE and other goods.

  14. Foreign investment in China is dropping. Foreign manufacturers are closing down and moving back to their home countries. Manufacturing and investment have stopped because supply chains are now broken. Long supply chains are now unreliable and are hurting manufacturing around the world. Aggressive government policies have alienated surrounding countries.
    61
  15. Any foreign investor still investing in China needs to stop and reassess the risks. China is actively pushing foreign investors out.

  16. Everything Xi touches crumbles.
    45
  17. The virus lockdowns and abuse of people has its consequences. Businesses had to shut down as employees were locked in their homes and could not travel to work.
    44
  18. Corruption is everywhere. It is an ingrained part of society.
    44
  19. Lie, cheat and steal is all too common today. Greed and selfishness is every where. You can not trust people, businesses, or government to be honest and truthful. Parents and teachers stopped teaching children the "golden rule" 40 years ago and now honesty and caring for others keeps declining. Society and business can not function if no one can be trusted to tell the truth.

  21. A lower population is a good thing. Having a child that you can not provide for yourself is cruel and irresponsible. Population needs to be in balance with jobs, resources, nature and the environment. Humans are crowding out all other species of plants and animals. Governments and corporations want increased births for cheap labor for corporations. Time to value quality of life not just quantity of life for cheap labor.
    40
  22.  @Itried20takennames  That is the reason poor people are so poor. Every additional mouth to feed reduces the size of the pie for the rest of the family. Split $100 between two people and get $50 each. Split $100 between 4 people and get $25 each.. It is simple math that so many people do not under stand.
    35
  23. Companies want population growth because they want cheap labor. It is more important to focus on quality of life than population growth. Raising the living standards of people should be the focus. Having a child that you can not provide for is cruel and irresponsible.
    34
  24. Pollution has consequences.  China needs more environmentalists and better government protections for air, land and water. Individuals pollute, small businesses pollute, large corporations pollute and the government does not protect the environment from pollution. Laws to protect the environment must be enforced. Excessive use of pesticides and fertilizers cause pollution poisoning the foods.
    32
  25. Even children today have signs of artery disease. Fast foods and sugary drinks have long term consequences. There is an obesity epidemic today where over 60% of the population is overweight or obese. What is common today and "NORMAL" is not healthy. The average person today is not healthy and is taking medications. Heart attacks were once only common in people over 65. Today people in their 40 are having heart attacks. Add more plants and vegetables to your diet and less junk and overly processed foods
    31
  26. Seems like a billion people are in prison.
    29
  27. China is uninvestable. The risks are too high.

  28. Society can not function properly is no one can be trusted to tell the truth. Values, ethics, honesty and empathy are all necessary.

  29. Selling buildings before they are built is a scam..

  30.  @Houd_Vast  That is why they are poor.

  32. The risks of doing business in China are too high. India, Mexico, Vietnam, Canada and USA are better places to invest.

  33. State owned manufacturers are effectively government owned and subsidized. They all should have tariffs of 100%
    18
  34. Unfinished ZOMBIE buildings.
    17
  35. Are the numbers real or just what the boss wanted to see.
    17
  36. Jobs, food, housing and other resources needs to be in balance with population. There are too many people needing resources. Adding more people only adds to the resource problem. A low birth rate is a good thing. It will help reduce over consumption and increase protection of the environment. The Climate Crisis will impact everyone. A lower population will balance available resources. The worlds population is expected to grow by another billion people. The world can not provide for another billion people.

  37. Education and birth control are key to reducing poverty and hunger. Having a child that you can not provide for yourself is cruel and irresponsible.

  38. Supply chains are broken. Companies will move manufacturing out of China and back to home countries. Lock downs will cause more individuals and companies to leave.
    15
  39. Greed, selfishness or corruption ? People today have no moral values. Lie, cheat or steal. It is all OK.
    15
  40. China is uninvestable. There is no rule of law. There is no freedom of speech. There is no freedom of movement. Internet activity is monitored. Cameras monitor public spaces. No privacy. Numbers produced by companies or the government can not be trusted. New laws put everyone at risk for arrest for spying. The government manipulates all business and government statistics. State owned corporations are puppets of the government and its policies. Companies and the stock markets are not free and fair. Manipulation and misinformation are everywhere. There is no 5% growth this past year. That is a made up number. The is no growth. 0% The economy is contracting. China's media is all state propaganda and can not be believed or trusted to tell the truth. Businesses need to diversify their supply chains and reduce dependence on China.

  42. Make enemies of your trading partners and wonder why they stop buying from you and move their manufacturing to friendlier countries. The wolf warrior policies have consequences. All negative to the Chinese people.

  43. Every home should have a rain water collection system and solar panels. We waste too much water and electricity.
    13
  44. There is no economic activity when the city is locked down. Many small and medium businesses will go broke and employees will have no income. Freedom of movement and freedom of speech are under appreciated until they are taken away.
    13
  45. No rule of law. Ordinary people have no recourse.

  46. Wetlands are natures water storage areas. These low lying areas must be protected and not developed. Population needs to be in balance with jobs, resources, nature and the environment. Rivers need wide paths to expand and shrink as water levels change. These areas need to be undeveloped and used as open space, park lands and flood water storage areas. It will reduce flood damage and improve the quality of life for residents. We must learn to live in harmony with nature.
    12
  47. Population needs to be in balance with jobs, resources, nature and the environment. The virus is nature fighting back. Humans are crowding out all other species of plants and animals. Men need to be more responsible for their children or get a vasectomy. More people demand more resources. Endless population growth is not sustainable on a finite planet. Having a child that you can not provide for is cruel and irresponsible. If you can not provide for yourself you can not provide for a child. People need to be more responsible.

  48. Long supply chains are a risk to any company and country. The PPE and virus disaster has shown that critical products need to be manufactured locally.
    11
  49. The PMI does not accurately account for closed businesses that do not report statistics. The PMI is actually much lower. Closed businesses do not manufacture products.

  50. Stupid policies lead to bad results.
