Boring...he sounds like every other westerner with these nonsense conclusions...like" omg China is is now the world leader" don't use that phrase so lightly a "world leader" kiss ass for sure and inconclusive..he sounds like me when i was a student when I was 20 years old in China ( sigh)

Panda licking by a useless old hack who can't write worth a crap. His "whirl wind tour", just like many other old dudes with spare cash, consisted of staying in high end hotels, trips to shopping districts and of course, KTV.

Mostly regurgitated conclusions from the Asia pages of the WSJ and FT.

". . . visiting places like Suzhou, Wuxi, Guangzhou, Shenzhen and now Hong Kong." and now he knows all about China eh? Thomas Friedman isn't that right and doesn't write that well. The world is absolutely not flat, not even in the sense Friedman implies.
