| 658428 | 2008-04-14 11:22:00 | While looking through Digg, I found a link to this article (www.dailymail.co.uk) on China and how it's becoming increasingly dominant, and very fast. What are your thoughts? How do you think this will affect New Zealand? China and India have serious and entrenched problems with human rights, equality, poverty, pollution, civil conflicts and related issues. China is not democratic. India is, but is riven with corruption and sectarianism. A very large proportion of either country cannot read or write. All the wonderous tales of economic development you see and hear in the news has happened in isolated cases and has favoured mostly the elite. The vast majority of the populace of both live in squalor and deprivation. In effect, it is like a bubble itself. Wealth of either country, and those like them, is built on cheap labour and the neglect of basic rights. Sooner or later, dissatisfaction will boil over. I haven't been in either country in years, but from what I hear things have not improved much for the poor. As far as New Zealand is concerned, it should be OK providing it does not depend on either country too much. |
