Dear MEL School’s
Topic Readers,
With one eye on
Washington, China plots its own Asia 'pivot'
While the U.S. is
trying to sell and promote its “pivot to Asia” policy, its rival seems to be developing
and deploying counter measures in the region.
China had been
keeping its prominent leader Deng Xiaoping’s "hiding ones' strength and
biding ones' time" discipline, or keeping a low profile policy until
recently. But they’ve got GPS satellites that cover not only Asia but also the
whole globe, the world fastest computer, stealth fighter jets, and cyber forces
as well as now the most influential economy within the region and also to the
world. Their deeper-than-any-other pocket allows the country to demonstrate its
influence and threats to the region. Some of the economic initiatives they are
taking are claimed to be peaceful and indeed look generous but its neighbors
can see the glint of steel beneath the robe.
Enjoy reading and
learning what the rising dragon is intending.
