Yes, you're partially right but the thing is the sheer scale and size of China's problem dwarfs everyone else's. China's problems with cheating & corruption has been around for centuries if not longer, and it's really ingrained into its core culture; Confucius and his movement came into existence as a way to fix it. It's a low trust society that relies on family clans ie no one else matters but your family. Confucius was right. The rule of law would fix a lot of this over time. The problem is that you're not going to get the rule of law without transparency and openness, especially when it comes to freedom of speech. XJ is singlehandedly doing all he can to reverse all the gains from DX.
Encouraging innovation in China is a much easier problem than this, yet both have the same pragmatic solution.
