9 China policy

China and Taiwan

Though both China and Taiwan claim to be the real China, mainland China enjoys recognition worldwide.
The population and economy of mainland China is much higher, though per capita income in Taiwan is higher. Companies in Taiwan are significantly large investors in mainland China.

Internet usage

In the last week, the Chinese government has been cracking down on the misuse of  the internet for providing access to non -family friendly websites.  Both Google and the Chinese search engine Baidu have not been spared.

The Chinese government is very clear about internet usage, it actively encourages it to be used for trade, but it also has strict censorship rules in place.

Chinese government

China is ruled by the communist party and most of the top government leaders are technocrats. They usually have many years of practical experience and this helps them in taking better decisions.

This is unlike some countries which are officially democracies , but have major political parties run by dynasties. These rulers have led soft lives, are fond of luxuries and do not have enough practical experience to take quick decisions.
