    The world seems to be heading to collapse.

    With growing pressures and exertions of influence who is going to fight who???

    What I find interesting is why companies set up shop in China as opposed to a Vietnam, Thailand or some other cheap labour source??? China if it wants to go down the Tiananmen Square route will want to claim influence through market influence in terms of production and consumer market. So if your a foreign company at risk of restriction why set up in China when you have more leverage in a Vietnam or Phillipines or Thailand etc..

    It China decides to create a hot war with their neighbours is that not a cause for a legitimate hot war??

    Hong Kong might resist, they may perish, but either way do they have leverage to be a point of difference or are they better off leaving??
