So many Americans with humanities degree are hired to promote conflict between China and US. Such a shame to humanities department in elite American universities.

Eric Li is so realistic and eloquent 🤝✅. That Hong Kong guy with American accent is disgusting 😄.

😂😂😂 In future, make Brian speak last 5 mins b4 closing cos he will not stop.😂😂😂 Obviously, future Hongkong politician. 😅

this guy is talking nonsense lol.

You missed the link. Common prosperity is a concept emphasised by Confucianism - social harmony, ethical governance, and equitable distribution of wealth and resources. Confucius was in770 to 476 BC. Ching Imperial dynasty was 1744 to 1912 way off in your history. need to go further back for Chinese and Asian phyic

Interesting with clarity. One drawback is the sound quality. Rana Mitter is amazing and very knowledgeable about China than more Chinese scholars.

China is going to have a renaissance. China needs a renaissance. China needs to bring the rich traditional culture up to date, making the traditional culture relevant to modern life. In the last century and half, China has been absorbing the culture of the West. That makes China culturally very rich. That also requires China to integrate the different elements into new whole. China needs to examine its history with a new viewpoint. China needs to develop or adapt many disciplines, like sociology and anthropology to tell its own story.

He's British as far as I can tell.

why an Indian scholar？ just amazing

Dragon 🇨🇳 and the Bear 🇷🇺

You are either stupid or really bad. Do you see the serious problems that china was facing in late 2010s where real estate was not sustainable after so many years of rapid development and the private sectors monopolize the economy which would hinder the further development if not properly regulated

That American guy, like most Americans , rejects the theory of multipolarity, and cannot think of any other countries worth mentioning than the US and China. The foremost example he should have thought should be Russia. It's people like him who caused the Ukraine war. And they keep treating other nations who don't think like them like dirt.

I'm an absolute fan of Eric Li's. But chairman Xi put it even more nicely, "modernisation is not westernization". The Westen Interpretation of this, à la Kevin Rudd, is Xi's Marxism and Leninism (he speaks good Chinese, but has no insights). In contrast, Eric's interpretation is that the West achieved modernization not through the modern western values, but through e.g. colonialism. And china needs to chart its own way. 👍

I nominate Brian Wong the un-official spokesman of HongKong!

I would love to see more of Dr. Brian Wong to share his perspectives on global and China issues in similar forums, and as always, Dr. Eric Li too. Saich was fair. Pretty good moderation throughout, credit to Prof. Tang. Both Cunningham and Dynan looked a bit tired over their busy schedules.

I hope the rich people leaving China to Singapore for example at least stay in Asia. Don't go to the West and enrich them, they hate Asians and feel superior. Enrich other Asians

Wow learning a lot

Brian Wong was totally excluded from the topic. He seems from the UK colonial era.

Eric Li's comments: 23:30 - Initial answer 44:59 Eric answering another Panelist's question 1:21:30 - final comment

Since 1949, even way back before Xi’s administration, Chinese has been the centralized government or centralized system. Otherwise, there would be no such a great achievement as right now in China.

This white guy knows nothing about Chinese education, which has been keeping to play the important role in Chinese further development. Every year China produces more than 10 million university graduates, in which 10 times more engineering graduates than that of USA.

I’m here mainly to get Eric’s cleverness, hate to see that UK colonial trainee, Brian Wong. Please not again!

So happy that Dr. Lee stopped being a "venture capitalist" and instead became a "venture socialist with Chinese characteristics." He understand that The People are suffering and that a return to communist ideals as exemplified by President Xi is imperative to alleviate our stagnation.

to that Hongkonger, Hongkong got its position today only because China used to be a closed country and need Hongkong as a port to connect the world, now China is open, the importance of Hongkong will be lower and lower, so there's nothing pround being a Hongkonger, without mainland China you're nothing. again to that Hongkonger, 1 country 2 system is about the ownership of basic resources of a country, in mainland China the ownership is in the state where in Hongkong the ownership is in the hands of private sectors, it's not about what you can say in Hongkong what you cannot say in mainland, btw, if what you say is true you can say it in mainland too, stop smearing mainland, mainland don't need to copy what you learned from the West, today's Western world is pure garbage in free speech, also the 1989 Tiananmen square incident had been painted as a typical anti China anti CCP material with lies, when you find yourself sharing the same view as the US govt, you know you've been brainwashed, it's the US who's behind almost every crisis on this planet, not China.

🐉🐉🐉🐉

The west led by the U.S. always creat conflicts and polarizations between countries. Why countries have to pick and choose rather than work together?

❤!

The difference between a talker and a doer, eric has real job apart from talking, thus his wording and language is emphatic and strong. Love it.

"共享繁榮"+"居者有其屋","豐衣足食"! No need to have Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water Mansion nor Trump's Trump Manhattan Building!

"共享繁榮"+"居者有其屋"!

1.0 China Doesn't Care About the Stock Market Markets (benefits only a few). 2.0 China isn't 'following the script' of the West! "Abacus against calculator"? Stock and Real property markets are the judgement for economy state in the West. Xi's ambitions are "share prosperity and sufficient (affordable) houses and food for all".

I got a kick out of the comment that China doesn't need a Constitution like the one possessed by the US. Which means China doesn't need an underlying Rule of Law either, right? Just have arbitrary legal judgements based upon "dynamic" interpretations of legal contracts based upon shifting power struggles. Granted, the US is showing similar moves towards arbitrary selective enforcement of the law with administration in the White House. But ultimately, if human and legal rights are "bestowed/revoked" based upon whoever happens to be in power, and therefore, are not unalienable, exactly for who does modernization benefit? A higher quality of economic life is meaningless without personal liberties. It's just a fancier form of political serfdom.

Woke n sold out universities

Asking the world to choose is childish and immature. The world is big enough for different political and economic system.

thanks Erick

The western views and narratives about China always presumed that China is run by a pack of Mickey Mouse, unable to think, did not know what they are doing, a fumbling group of inepts and making mistakes after mistakes and China is going to collapse. On the contrary, America or the west is led by brilliant leaders and thinkers and America is the most progressive and well managed state in the world, doing everything right and America is just doing fine. And America rightly deserved to be lecturing China, telling China what to do, dictating to China, threatening and sanctioning China, bullying China, isolating and containing China, and the Chinese leader did not know what to do, did not know how to response, lamely sitting there to be bullied and threatened by the Americans and the West. Look at the realities on the ground. Over the last 40 years, where were China and the USA then and now? If China is run by a bunch of no idea and foolish leaders, would China be what it is today, the second biggest economy in the world, in ppp terms the biggest economy in the world. What about America, still sitting on top of the world? Looking at the end results, which state, China or the USA, is run by a bunch of Mickey Mouse? China today is very well ahead of the Americans in many fields of science and technology. The only thing left for the Americans to brag about is war, manufacturing wars and making war a business. This is the only industry left for the Americans but would soon also be over. China is now able to manufacture all the advanced weapons that once only the Americans could do, and can do it cheaper and better. America is declining into a Mickey Mouse country led by Mickey Mouse/Mice and still living in cartoon land believing that it still can kick the world around like before. The Americans are still deluding themselves by trying to sanction and isolate other states when in fact they are isolating and sanctioning themselves and did not have clue what is going on.

no countries in the world can match the peoples of China,they are hardworking.they are not contented in the money they earn,they want more more more.they are very very smart.even with out education they will survive.when China becomes manufacturing in the world.must of the people’s are not well educated.in 1970 to 80 up to 90 the education is soo bad but they all surpass the well educated countries in the world.like America,Europe,Japan.and all.its not the education it’s the willingness of the to peoples to get rich 😊😊😊😊

Brilliant! I never new China in the 80's was like that!

I'm only here for Eric Li.

Very interesting experience from politics to economics this line will help me study my turbulent homeland Sudan from politics hopefully into economics a roadmap Very interesting lecture thank you so much

Dr Brian Wong is the citizen, enlightened, out spoken, unapologetic, wants to be part of the story, I admire. He knows who he is and hope he will infect others with his enthusiasm.

To what extent you can separate the political, from the economc policy. Technologically, or perhaps mechanically,they are both turning on the back of the same wheel, driving the affaires of the State. Otherwise there will be no synchronization between them. Each one of them is pulling or pushing the other in the same time.. And if you stall the wheel at any point, the whole thing will be at stillstand. You cannot just produce or accumulate products and labor in the kitchen without knowing, who they are , and what they are?, what is the menu? Who is going to cook t? Who is going to eat them? For what occasion? For what purpose? And who is going to pay the bill? And what is the overall net benefit of the whole gathering, not only on the stomach, and perhaps on the spirit, but on all the other social, cultural, and values assets as a distinct attribute of a specific society or civilization.

Wong is loud and simple but wrong. US want to see HK fail. Now trying their best to make sure HK fail.

The US that recognize its democratism, veiled brutality, and coveted humanitarian military expansionism. It dismisses with coercive cunningness with like-minded bullying allies, so the speaker does not have to engage with what s/he is defending.

The US led "rules based order" backed by unilateral sanctions wars and confiscations is the global hegemonic autocracy. The latest manifestation is in the condonment of genocidal war on Gaza

The elephant in the room that's ignored is the US containment of China from the Obama years consistently pursued by Trump and Biden. The trade wars, technology sanctions and disengagement. Some Chinese leaders suspected that Covid was a biological war launched after the Trump administration directed US businesses to withdrawal from China. The anti-China media campaign openly funded by the US State Dept, think tanks and academia. Continuous colour revolutions in Georgia and Ukraine followed with wars. All these formented a climate that will inflict big changes in Chinese policies

point about autocracy and technologic advancement is reversed. europe entered a dark age and tech stagnated during the chaos.. 🧐
