The GREAT COLLAPSE of CHINA

AndrewPKYap SG

This bunch of despots will bring the country down. Do they even know what the fark they are doing? Internationalising RMB, the Chinese Yuan? hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!

It is not going to happen overnight, the great China collapse, but if I were you and have assets, interests, in the continent, I would be watching very closely and Hole Jinx of Temasek has decided to place bets with Singaporeans hard earned money there!!!!

Every great civilisation before us has collapsed. America, Europe, India, Russia, not one's going to be an exception

i don't see how predicting China's collapse, considering how much times it has already collapsed in history is somehow a surprise.

I can also say America will collapse too, just not overnight.

Already bought that one.

I have also read 1 Billion Consumers as well.

Problem with these books is that China is a country of 1.3 billion, the vastness of the data results that they can only present facts from their perspective.

It's just too difficult to say how things would turn out.

This Great Collapse of China is not a general every country might collapse statement. Just like when I said Singapore's economy will be hit hard way back in July 2007, it was not a general statement but from analysis of current events and was proven right.

Similarly, when I say be prepared for Great Collapse of China, I am talking from an analysis of current events. Unless I see a change in the inevitable, a change in the course of what China is embarking, we will see The Great Collapse of China.

AndrewPKYap SG

Like my predictions on the dire consequences of the economy of Singapore was not evident in 2007, similarly this "prediction" on China will not be evident to all of you.

Furthermore, this will take more than a couple of years like my 2007 predictions on Singapore took a couple of years before it became obvious to all. How fast this happens would depend on how stupid the communist despots are and how fast they act.

AndrewPKYap, do you think USA will collapse?

Let's do a little history lesson - Singapore gained independence because of good timing... nothing else.

@US$ … For anyone that’s interested …

A small essay on the GBP and US$ :

Reserve currency: Replacing $$ has huge implications

http://www.globalsurfnews.com/news.asp?Id_news=41212

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 7 June, 2009 : - - A country who holds what is called the reserve currency has what De Gaulle called ‘an exorbitant privilege’. Other countries in order to get hard currency (usually USD) have to physically make ‘stuff’ and sell it to buy cars from Japan, clothes from Asia, machines from Germany etc. In order for the U.S. to get more dollars, it only has to run the Federal printing presses. Hey Presto – more USD…

The U.S dollar replaced the Pound Sterling as the worlds reserve currency after WW2 after the Bretton-Woods conference which was held to design the post war economic order, create the IMF and World Bank etc. When the US Govt made a deal with the Arabs to trade oil in Dollars in return for protection, that sealed the fate of the Pound. Everyone needed oil, therefore everyone needed dollars to buy it. The demand for them grew and the need for Sterling collapsed.
…
…
Before WW 1, Britain was a creditor nation, had buckets of cash and held the reserve currency (GBP) – the British empire ruled a quarter of the worlds surface. WW1 and then WW2 were ruinous and the U.K went to being a debtor nation owing massive amounts to foreigners. The balance of power shifted after the Bretton Woods conference and British Govt policy – knowing that they could no longer afford a huge navy and soldiers in outposts in India, Kenya, South Africa, Malaysia, Singapore, Burma and all the other outposts of empire was called ‘the orderly management of decline’ and they started to wind it all down granting independence to each country during the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s etc.

On the basis of the reasons for Britain's decline as offered by Spade1, it is evident that the USA is in the same position as Britain was after WW-1 and WW-2 - as the USA is caught in a quagmire of two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Besides the two wars, the USA has a huge military to maintain its operational readiness, as well as to provide development funds for the development of new systems and new platforms to maintain its military edge over others.

Will China ever find herself in the same situation as Britain and the USA ?

The possible scenario that will have China committing heavy expenses that will bankrupt herself is when she has to respond militaristically to prevent a rogue government in Taiwan declaring independence.

The other possible scenario will be to support a failed North Korean Government from foreign aggressions; or alternatively to embark on a military adventure to discipline the North Koreans for disrupting peace in the region.

Other then these two hot issues that can affect China's prosperity, she will probably scrape through successfully with the help from her large number of talented and well educated citizens.

Will the Communist Party allow China collapse ?

Will China's leaders ever become so ignorant about global issues that will bring them through the same path that bankrupted the USA ?

In the past few decades, China has been a prolific learner to bring herself to the current state of national well-being; and as China's economy grow - she will surely continue to learn and adapt herself to changing circumstances to maintain her new found status quo.

China has the trillions in her reserves that will allow her to employ the most talented to help her manage into the future.

AndrewPKYap SG

"that will allow her to employ the most talented" or "the best at asslicking running dogs, aka cronies and relatives"?

AndrewPKYap SG

Actually the whole idea of a country "employing talented people" is a rather stupid idea.

The most talented person a country can employ would be one that does nothing and instead let the people do it. That is to say, it takes a whole nation of people and the "most talented" would be one that will take as little resources out of the people's hands and create as many opportunities as possibe for the people to shine.

Not a government that competes with the people in resources (take as much of the people's money as possible), ideas (steal the people's ideas) and business (steal the people's business by competing with businesses using public money).

An excellent idea, however i haven't seen a single country that succeeded in doing this yet.

America still owns the most well equipped army/navy/air force around and one of the largest nuclear arsenal.

What's more, geographically it is impossible to invade by any of the current existing super powers. Canada and Mexico hardly has the ability to invade.

Most probably it would end up like England, a shadow of its former self.
