This is one of those opinions that sounds smart but doesn’t make any sense to anyone with more than a passing familiarity with it. A large chunk of experts do not see China as the likely world next superpower, many experts are debating if China will survive as a unified nation in the next decades. China has finally admitted to lying about their population for decades, they have some of the worst demographics in the world, along with the single worst food security and greatest debt load in recorded history. No serious person outside of anonymous online forums would ever describe any of these things as ingredients to success, and this is k my a small sampling of their long term problems. This is even ignoring India, a country with much better strategic advantages and an actually growing population. The idea that China was next was popular by experts in 2005.
