[quote=faterikcartman]In 1984 Oceania is always at war with Eurasia or Eastasia as one way to keep the populace under control.
China has almost 200 million more men than women. That alone could lead to unrest.
Can you connect the dots and find a possible solution for China?[/quote]
I don’t think there is a solution for China. If your number above is correct (and I have no reason to doubt that it is), simple math would dictate that, at some point, you’ll experience severe societal dislocation as the number of unattached (and disgruntled) young men hits critical mass.
China is one of the countries I don’t do business in (Russia is another) and for a variety of reasons, the main one being that they don’t pay their bills. Another significant reason is that China is actually getting more dangerous than people realize and the government has less control than people think. You leave the shiny new cities and get out into the countryside and the vibe completely changes and not in a good way.
Most westerners don’t leave the cities, however, and thus don’t see this.
