Sun, 22 Jan 2012 15:23:18 +0000 http://www.technomicasia.com/blog/?p=1395#comment-176049 I agree with what you are saying. I think the whole term, "the end of cheap China" has become overused to the point now where it is devoid of all meaning. It is being used to show that China is getting expensive, yes, but also to show how China has changed. In the end though, China is still cheap due to its subsidies, its labor costs and its efficient logistics. And in many arenas where it is not "cheap," it is the cheapest or the most efficient. If this really were the end of cheap China, there would not be so much manufacturing still happening there. I agree with what you are saying.

Nothing to add to Gordon Chang & Co, but, from my personal point of view Mr. Rein frequently practices China-bashing in disguise as well, is nothing but superficial and self-serving at best. To have an opinion about everything doesn't make one an expert in anything. I live in Greater China for almost half of my life (so far) and it would never cross my mind to claim to be an expert. China, and the Chinese, still amaze, inspire and frustrate me. The day that stops I will leave. Well, I largely agree with your view.

Thanks for the kind comments and input. You have a way of expressing things that I can only aspire to. China is at an inflection point (that may last several years) and it will be interesting to see how the next few years play out. As you note, it could go either way, but also it may go a way that is impossible to forecast at the moment. I am mostly optimistic. Hi Ben. Thanks for the kind comments and input.

I think what this all points towards is that China is at an inflection point: economically, politically, environmentally. It could be that post the upcoming fall 2012 transition of power, the new leadership will show that it is willing to take important steps in the direction of additional reforms that would address the concerns you raise; conversely, it could also be that post the leadership transition, China turns into bad economic headwinds, which drive it to become even more insular, isolated and reactionary (hey, in fairness, it's happening in the US as well at the moment). Regardless, I think you're right to urge caution and, at least for business, to begin hedging your bets with additional emphasis on other emerging economies while making sure your domestic Chinese operations are becoming increasingly independent and able to function within, and sell to, Chinese clients and consumers.

Besides stifling China's domestic creativity and consumption, measures like that also force local Chinese brands and entertainment to fall further behind foreign (Western, Asian etc) brands and entertainment. Look at the presence of Chinese stars in music, for instance, compared with little Taiwan. Hello
