re: #295 Hecuba’s daughter

Maybe. But I’m old enough to recall when Japanese products were mocked as being low quality, and then within a few years, they were number 1 in terms of product loyalty and far better than what the Big 3 were creating. China is working its way up the food chain and should never be underestimated. The hopefully soon collapse of Russia will likely be the real opportunity for them.

I think the tofu dregs applies to domestic Chinese construction and maybe products. Chinese construction exists of bad or no regulations and corruption from both the government and the companies.

The Chinese manufacturing for industries where Chinese companies want to compete internationally have developed well and are good now.
