Bullish on China After My Recent Visit

What would give this article more credibility is a wider perspective on how China's strengths compare with its weaknesses. After a short visit to a huge and vastly different country, almost anyone would be awed by their experiences. Living in the country for over a year allows this initial "glow" to wear off and you see some of the more mundane and unimpressive aspects of the nation, such as the pervasive and unforgiving repression of free speech.

That said, China is a tremendous force that will certainly lead the world one day. The youthful energy and exuberance you highlight can lead to positive change, but also has the propensity to trample over anything obstructing the path of China's torrid growth.
