I know I'm biased, but I'm shocked that an author such as Meredith is unaware of statements and attitudes expressed by those at the highest level of Chinese government.
Are these people really so short sighted, or has greed and the prospect of tapping the huge potential chinese consumer market blinded them to obvious issues of national security?
The fact that the Chinese government is encouraging capitalistic activties in order to raise hard cash to expand their military and increase their presence world wide, is not to be confused with a sincere quest for democracy.
