This is another deception made by the Media to let the nations of sheep believe things will go this way. The people who control the world have Muslims as first in there threat list and then China (closest to Muslim Islamic political system) as second. Be clear about it, Israel is the next superpower.
Agreed . In 20 years max China won't have enough oil to power it's economy . And at the rate things are going their going to start having category 5 hurricanes as their usual weather .
At this rate, it's possible especialy when the U.S keep borrowing money and outsource their jobs to China.
Yes I agree that China will be powerful to next 30 to 40 years because of some underground works of China but as we know and read in BIBLE(if you are believe in GOD) Israel is the GOD nation that's why in the end Israel will be powerful among all country.
i don't agree with this after 30-40 years china will be having the strongest economy in the world(surpassing US), but "super power" word comes in a strong military concept so i don't think that will gonna happen
I guess this can't be happen. China hasn't a vital parameter for become a supper power and this is democracy. I guess China situation is a bit fragile. When living condition get better and these milliard guys calm their stomach, then shall think about their rule in society and want more democracy and freedom! China has a lot of conflicts in its way! Tibet, Sin kiang and …. Seems this is a principal basis for you!
China won't become a superpower simply because it lack the resources and tech to do so . An they are on the self destructive path of state economy and global warming generations. This years floods almost made their precious Three Gorges Dam burst , imagine how proud they'll be when that thing falls into pieces .
i think less than 10 years, because they are utilizing their power in industries, thats why its written on everything (made by china )
Natural resources ain't needed in order to survive. Look at the USA. They're great thinkers that make money with their brains (do they even have any natural resources?). I'm sure Mr Gates added to their economy greatly without using any 'natural' resources, apart from people-power, and with that, China has many.
Dude , I almost slapped myself when I read the 1st sentence . Please don't post this type of stuff again , if your economics are not shining no one forces you to post about economics .
I admit I don't know how much resources the USA has or how it uses them, but I'd guess China would have similar resources if not more than the USA. I was arguing what makes you think they'd be in a worse position than the USA as it's not only resources needed in order to lead. China, just like USA does, can go & steal their oil when it's needed.
The thing about resources is that they're running out at an astonishing rate . China's economy was built on the fact that resources where cheap and workforce was expensive . Along whit this they managed to hold hostage the IT industry by monopolizing the world's rare earths market since they enjoy vast viable deposits . This along whit the conversion to the digital age has made the ruling tyrants rich beyond belief . The thing is that in the last decade years the price of iron alone jumped by 400% and oil doubled . Although China almost stopped it's self-destructive population growth they are in a industrial growth madness . This madness is using tons of the precious oil by 2020 - 2030 oil won't be viable anymore for transportation and the red giant will fall simply because it ha it's legs built from clay . This is the reason Europe is literally flooding the R&D whit money , just to get sustainability for our current society . We're on a desperate race to get fusion and the US is on the same race to get anti-matter (I'm not sure WTH they're thinking , maybe fusion + anti-matter) . In 10-20 years recycling will be B.I.G. big and those that invest now in the green will be tomorrow's rulers .
China is also burning a lot of coal and still putting up a new (coal powered) power station every week but have invested heavily in solar. They're spending a lot of money here on coal and investing in our renewable energy technologies, probably for that very reason.
Will China ever embrace the 'pre-emptive strike' actions you seem to hold so dear? I hope not but maybe the OP has a point.
Gah forum ate my previous post and your green is gray , but thx anyway . They might do that but given the fact they are lead by retards , equipped whit crap and outnumbered 4 - 1 there's a high chance that they are smart enough not to do it but they are doing tons of subversive actions to weaken the West's & Russia's military .
These stupid Paki's wish that china becomes superpower so they can become super powers puppy. What they don't realise is Pakistan will be the first country they kick when its of no use to them. Regarding the thing about resources, Chinese FDI in Africa (which has abundant untapped resources) exceeds any other country by a BIG margin, maybe even exceeds FDI of all other countries put together. So you can always imports raw materials and export value-added products, Britain's been doing it since 100 years.
