The Chinese are a very industrious, talented, and go getter people. I have great respect for them and even greater respect for their huge potentials.

In my opinion, the Chinese authoritarian system is what still hold back a lot of things that Chinese could have and would have achieved. China has been growing with big discontents, ongoing repressions of the government to keep its emperor seat, the people’s struggles to get their freedom and rights to choose development that will serve them.

There is no doubt that the authoritarian system also provide a few advantages, but overall, with many of other big problems, a huge potential of a great people are still wasted.
