That is wrong. What about Japan?The west always holds the semi-racist view that no country of colour should be able to do better than the pure, white, master race. That is why stories about China relating to prison labour, hacking/‘forced tech transfers’, poor quality and similar always gets particular interest by the western MSM, as it plays to their narrative that China is only doing so well because of ‘cheating’ and that in a ‘fair’ competition, the west would be doing better, as is their birthright.
OH wait... Japan is a vassal/client state. They celebrate these countries and position them as some sort of champions while in reality, they have been neutered and occupied.
