CHINA VS US

"If you think of China as a country that copies rather than innovate - think again!!" (Amy Webb)

Ambillah Tiongkok memang benar mencuri teknologi maka bagi AS untuk mengatasi hal ini sangat mudah. Tinggal buktikan saja didepan pengadilan dan tuntut Tiongkok untuk membayar lunas semua paten yang dilanggar, gampang sekali 'kan? Apalagi AS 'kan gudangnya ahli hukum (lawyer) kelas dunia, kurang apalagi? Jika AS menempuh jalan ini ada banyak keuntungan diperoleh, Tiongkok akan jatuh namanya karena terbukti mencuri dan AS akan menerima banyak uang sebagai ganti rugi paten yang dilanggar. Disinilah kita harus kritis, mengapa AS tidak menempuh jalan hukum yang begitu mudah ini? Namun memilih untuk sekedar berpolitik? Penjelasan rasional yang paling mudah adalah AS tidak memiliki bukti bahwa terjadi pencurian teknologi oleh Tiongkok. Lalu apa yang sebenarnya terjadi? Bagaimana fenomena ini dapat dijelaskan?

Untuk mendapatkan jawaban ini kita perlu terlebih dahulu memahami perkembang-an teknologi Tiongkok yaitu bahwa ada beberapa bidang teknologi dimana Tiongkok mandiri dari Barat. Sebagai contoh, Kereta Cepat (High-Speed Train), Teknologi Konstruksi, 5G, Space Technology, Railgun Technology, AI, Electric Car, Renewable Energy, Hydrogen Bomb and Thermonuclear yang diluncurkan tahun 1964 - 1967, pada saat Tiongkok masih di-embargo Barat. Disini perlu kita perhatikan hal-hal sbb yaitu:

Pertama, Apa perlunya Tiongkok susah-susah mencuri? Jika Tiongkoklah yang memimpin (world leader) dibidang teknologi tsb? Misalnya untuk Teknologi 5G, Railgun, High-Speed Train, Renewable Technology, AI dan Mobil Listrik.

Untuk 5G, Tiongkok sepenuhnya mandiri, Barat sendiri belum mampu membuat IC 5G dan komponen untuk antena 5G. Oleh karena Huawei memdominasi patent 5G dan semua proyek pembangunan jaringan 5G. (Elizabeth Woyke, "China is Racing Ahead in 5G. Here's What That Means," MIT Technological Review, December 18, 2018;  /s/612617/china-is-racing-ahead-in-5g-heres-what-it-means/).

Demikian juga dengan Railgun yang teknologinya jauh lebih modern daripada Railgun AS. Menurut analis militer, Railgun Tiongkok dapat merontokkan kapal induk AS dalam jarak 150 km dari pantai. Tiongkok begitu maju dalam Railgun Technology ini karena teknologi elektromagnetik-nya jauh lebih canggih daripada Barat (Jamie Seidel, "China's World First: Electromagnetic Railgun Goes to Sea," ,  news-story/ 6e31d167e88308f59ec9633 ef1e867b; Josh K. Elliott, "Why China's Miracle Railgun Weapon Should Scare the US Navy," Global News, January 3, 2019; news/ 4810853/china-railgun-warship-weapon/)

Tiongkok adalah yang terdepan di dunia ini dalam Teknologi Kereta Cepat. Sampai hari ini, AS tidak memiliki sebuah kereta cepatpun, sedangkan Tiongkok memiliki jaringan kereta cepat yang melayani seluruh kota besar yang ada (Agence France Presse, "China First in the World for High-Speed Train," The Jakarta Post, July 4, 2019;  life/2019/07/03/china-first-in-the-world-for-high-speed-trains.html).

Demikian juga untuk AI (Artificial Intelligent), mega investasi yang bernilai multi-milyar dollar US menyebabkan Tiongkok yang terdepan dibidang ini (Amy Webb, "China is Leading in Artificial Intellegence," 201809/amy-webb/china-artificial-intellegence.html; James Vincent, " China is about to overtake America in AI Research." The Verge, March 19, 2019; Louis Columbus, " How China is Dominating Artificial Intellegence." Forbes, December 16, 2018)

Untuk Enerji Terbarukan (Renewable Energy) ini adalah enerji masa depan. Pada saat perkembangan enerji terbarukan di Barat terhambat karena lobby politik perusahaan minyak. Tiongkok justru memimpin kemajuan di bidang ini (Dominic Dudley, "China is Set to Become the World's Energy Superpower," Forbes, January 11, 2019; Dominic Chiu, "The East is Green: China's Global Leadership in Renewable Energy," CSIS Report, e-energy)

Demikian juga dengan Teknologi Mobil Listrik. Teknologi ini adalah masa depan industri mobil. Saat ini kemajuan teknologi mobil listrik di Barat stagnan. Kini Tiongkoklah yang terdepan didunia ini (Bloomberg Businessweek, " China is Leading the World to an Electric Car Future," November 15, 2018; Alex Thornton, "China is Winning the Electric Vehicle Race," World Economic Forum, 04 February 2019;)

Kedua, Bagaimana Mungkin Tiongkok Mencuri Teknologi Jika Saat Itu Tiongkok diembargo dan di-isolasi oleh Barat? Misalnya, Teknologi Bom Hydrogen dan Bom Nuklir? Untuk Hydrogen Bomb (UPI Archives, "China Fires H-Bomb," June 17, 1967; "China First Hydrogen Test Successful, 1967")

Untuk Persenjataan Nuklir, Tiongkok adalah yang terbaik, bahkan melewati AS dan Russia, dalam Teknologi Persenjataan Nuklir (lihat, Alex Lockie, "We Ranked the World's Nuclear Arsenals. Here's Why China Came Out on Top." Business Insider, January 25, 2019).

Ketiga, Apabila Tiongkok Mencuri Teknologi, pasti teknologinya jauh lebih buruk dibandingkan Barat. Bagaimana mungkin bisa mendominasi hak Paten Teknologi? Paten diajukan untuk penemuan produk & teknologi baru dari segi ini Barat telah tertinggal oleh Tiongkok.

World Intellectual Property Organisation melaporkan bahwa untuk tahun 2017 dari 3.17 juta paten yang diterbitkan. Paten dari Tiongkok ada 1.38 juta (43.53%) sedangkan AS 607,000 (19.14%), Jepang 318,000 (10.03%), Korea Selatan 205,000 (6.46%). Baru disusul Uni Eropa 167,000 (5.26%). Data ini menunjuk kan bahwa selain dominasi teknologi Tiongkok; juga dominasi Asia karena dari 3 negara Asia Timur tsb sudah mendominasi 58.82% paten teknologi. Jika dilihat Asia secara keseluruhan ada 65% dari total paten. Sedangkan AS dan Eropa hanya 24.40%, jadi kini penemuan teknologi didominasi Asia, bukan oleh Eropa dan AS. Trend seperti ini stabil sejak tahun 2011 yl. Ini membuktikan bahwa Asia telah bangkit dan telah mendominasi teknologi ("China Continues to Dominate Worldwide Patent Applications" Engineering and Technology, December 4, 2018; Barney Thompson and Nian Liu, "China Leads the Way in Legal Technology Patents," Financial Times, 17 February 2019; IPPro, "China is Overtaking the US as the World's Largest Innovator," 20 November 2018,  specialistfeatures/ specialistfeature.php?specialist_id=26).

Keempat, Menurut intelektual dan akademisi Barat yaitu Joseph Needham, seorang ilmuwan yang terhormat (well-respected) dari Cambridge University, UK. Penulis ensiklopedia Science and Civilization in China. Needham menulis bahwa: "Tiongkok adalah Peradaban Sains dan Teknologi (Science and Technology Civilization). Masyarakat Tiongkok sangat menghargai proses belajar, studi dan meneliti, sehingga mereka memiliki kemampuan mengembangkan sains dan teknologi secara mandiri." Tulisan Needham ini menjelaskan mengapa pada saat diisolasi/diembargo Barat. Kemajuan teknologi Tiongkok untuk industri dasar, hydrogen dan nuklir tetap melaju kedepan secara mengesankan.

Lebih lanjut, Needham menulis bahwa kompas, jam (penunjuk waktu), mesiu, senjata api (senapan, meriam, dinamit, roket, dsb), crossbow, astronomi, kertas, uang kertas, bank, bank cheque, teknik percetakan, seismograph - alat pengukur gempa. Saat itu kaisar Tiongkok sudah bisa mengetahui kapan terjadi gempa, seberapa besar gempa tsb dan dimana lokasi gempa sehingga bisa cepat mengirim bantuan. Menarik bahwa seismograph modern masih tetap meng-gunakan prinsip teknologi yang sama dengan seismograph Tiongkok kuno. Serta masih banyak lagi seperti kincir air, irigasi, matematika, dsb. Seluruh teknologi ini telah biasa digunakan di Tiongkok dijaman dinasti Tang. Baru 1000 tahun kemudian diperkenalkan di Barat oleh rahib Jesuit, yang waktu itu ber -kunjung ke Tiongkok, menjadi tamu kaisar dan diijinkan belajar tekonologi Tiongkok. Jadi menurut Needham, Baratlah yang terlebih dulu belajar teknologi dari Tiongkok. Kehadiran teknologi Tiongkok di Eropa mendorong terjadinya Pencerahan (rennaisance) yang merupakan titik awal bangkitnya liberalisme dan humanisme, yang kemudian mendorong kebangkitan Eropa (Joseph Needham, Science and Civilization in China, Cambridge University Press, 2015).

Jika kita meminjam nilai-nilai liberal Barat, fairness, justice, gentleman, ethics dsb yang selama ini dijunjung tinggi dan dibanggakan oleh dunia Barat. AS semestinya membayar lunas semua paten teknologi Tiongkok yang digunakannya terlebih dahulu. Barulah AS bisa klaim pencurian teknologi oleh Tiongkok. Jika hal ini dilakukan maka AS tidak akan lagi mampu tegak berdiri, limbung karena bangkrut.

Selama bertahun-tahun para petinggi di Washington meremehkan (underestimate) Tiongkok. Mereka terjebak kedalam paradigma yang diciptakan sendiri; bahwa Tiongkok dikuasai rejim komunis yang otoritarian, bahwa rakyat Tiongkok menderita dibawah pemerintahan otoritarian, bahwa dengan kemajuan ekonomi yang terjadi, rakyat Tiongkok akan bangkit dan menuntut demokrasi, jika tuntutan demokrasi ini terjadi maka rejim komunispun tumbang dan Tiongkok - pun menjadi demokrasi liberal seperti Barat. Ditambah lagi untuk politisi dari kubu White-Supremacy, Tiongkok adalah non-Caucasian jadi secara budaya, moral dan kecerdasan sangat rendah, jadi tidak mungkinlah bisa berkembang menyaingi AS, dsb.

Ini adalah asumsi yang sepenuhnya irasional; oleh karena tidak didasarkan pada data dan studi kontemporer (contemporary studies) yang mendalam pada struktur sosial-politik Tiongkok. Namun hanya didasarkan pada persepsi "sebagai orang luar terhadap komunisme Tiongkok." Akibatnya seperti intelektual AS Gordon Chang yang laris dan disukai para petinggi Washington. Gordon sejak tahun 2005 yl selalu memprediksikan bahwa rejim politik dan ekonomi Tiongkok akan runtuh dan prediksinya selalu keliru. Sekalipun selalu keliru, Gordon tetap digandrungi para petinggi Washington karena Gordon berceritera apa yang ingin didengar oleh para petinggi Washington, bukan apa yang sebenarnya terjadi. Akibatnya, kebijakan Washington terhadap Tiongkok tidak pernah efektif, bahkan sepenuhnya tidak tepat sehingga Washington gagal menghentikan kemajuan Tiongkok. Puncak dari kegagalan Washington ini adalah perang dagang baru saja berlalu.

Frustasi menghadapi Tiongkok, langkah paling mudah adalah melancarkan hoax politik "mencuri teknologi" dengan tujuan membentuk persepsi dan opini publik AS dan dunia bahwa Tiongkok adalah negara inferior dengan tingkat kecerdasan rendah, bermoral rendah, bisanya cuma mencuri. Sedangkan AS adalah sang adikuasa yang superior, pembela demokrasi dan HAM, sumber ilmu dan teknologi; yang telah mejadi "korban" kejahatan Tiongkok.

Hoax politik ini sangat jitu dalam menenangkan publik AS atas rontoknya superioritas teknologi AS oleh Tiongkok. Gambaran bahwa AS adalah "korban" kejahatan dan kelicikan Tiongkok cukup meyakinkan kaum White Supremacist dan dapat menenangkan kemarahan kaum buruh dan para penganggur korban PHK karena relokasi industri ke Tiongkok. Film yang dibuat Peter Navarro, "Death by China" menggambarkan dengan jelas upaya politik ini. Tiongkok menjadi kambing hitam kegagalan kebijakan ekonomi AS sehingga sektor manufaktur dalam negeri rontok, hutang menumpuk, pengangguran meningkat, produktivitas nasional menurun dan AS menjadi sangat konsumtif yang mengakibatkan defisit perdagangan meledak semua ini berujung pada meningkatnya angka kemiskinan. Kini jauh lebih banyak jumlah orang miskin di AS daripada di Tiongkok. Pada tahun 2017 yl UN Rapporteur Philip Alston berkunjung ke AS untuk meneliti kemiskinan yang terjadi dan dia melapor-kan ada sejumlah 51 juta orang yang dikategorikan sebagai on extreme poverty (Ed Pilkington,"The UN Rapporteur on Extreme Poverty in America," The Guardian, 1 December 2017). Pada tahun yang sama jumlah orang miskin di Tiongkok tinggal 9 juta dan Xi mentarget-kan bahwa ditahun 2020 kemiskinan tidak ada lagi di Tiongkok.

Semua ini hanyalah mentalitas pihak yang kalah (the loser mentality). Tidak akan menolong AS untuk memperbaiki dirinya. AS bagaikan atlit yang kalah bertanding kemudian sibuk menyalahkan lawannya (Tiongkok) dan wasitnya (WTO).

"Sebagai akhir kata, data diatas menunjuk dengan jelas bahwa kini Asia memimpin dunia dalam Inovasi Teknologi sehingga langkah Asia memasuki abad 21 adalah dengan tegap. Fajar telah merekah di Asia, yang dulu adalah budak dan jajahan Barat. Akhirnya semua kembali kepada kita, Apakah kita akan menoleh ke Timur dimana fajar merekah dengan indah? Ataukah tetap terpaku ke Barat untuk menyaksikan matahari terbenam? Apakah kita akan ikut berderap bersama para tetangga memasuki abad Asia sambil memberi warna Indonesia? Ataukah kita memilih sibuk bertengkar masalah Suku, Ras, Agama dan Politik? Langkah apapun yang kita ambil adalah pilihan kita sendiri"

CHINA VERSUS US

CHINA VERSUS US

USA:"This is a lesson for the whole world. Open your economy and industries to US technologies and risk having your nation being held to ransom by a present or future US administration!"

IS AMERICA JEALOUS OF CHINA?

By: George King

George King has lived in the United States of America and China.

It is now very clear to everyone in the world that USA has no intention to allow any country to surpass her and she will use all tactics, evil or otherwise, to subjugate any one.

In the past, USA executed soft power to expound her reasonableness, projects that she cared about, human rights, freedom of the press; she wanted freedom and democracy for all and also the right of underdeveloped and developing countries to progress. This facade, held  since WW II, was all brutally torn apart by Trump who had showed the real and ugly face of USA by his attacks and economic sanctions on allies and others.

Underneath this facade, even when she purportedly helped Japan and Germany with the Marshal plan, created the UN, World Bank, IMF, NATO, WTO etc, they were in fact instruments and tools of US control, for USA governance and companies.

When it became untenable to have gold as a standard to benchmark the value of her currency, she changed the standard and benchmarked the dollar against a commodity such as oil (energy) and thus made her currency “international”. An agreement was struck between the  USA and Saudi Arabia that all oil transactions be denominated in dollars (the so-called petrodollars) and the dollar would then be re-circulated in the USA through the purchase of weapons and other investment.

This way, the USA can keep printing “paper” money without any kind of real asset such as “gold” to back up her dollar. In effect, she can go into deficit, spend without care (as she is in effect bankrolled by the  world) but other countries cannot do so the same. This was clearly shown in the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997 and in Argentina.

Many countries tried to break away from this system by "de-dollarization" or to achieve advanced technology but all these countries were toppled by the CIA, direct military intervention or crippled economically such as Chile, Iran, Iraq, Japan etc.

When China rose spectacularly, the USA was blindsided because her rise was too fast.

In a short 40 years, she lifted more than half of her 1.4 billion people out of poverty without firing a bullet. This is unprecedented in human history.

She also advanced in high technology and was able to produce high speed trains, build huge infrastructures such as roads, railway networks, bridges. Electric cars, power plants. She sent men up to space and created internet giants like Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu and  Huawei. She is now the second biggest economy in the world, encroaching to overtake USA as the biggest economy.

The USA is not jealous. She is frightened and nervous that her hegemony over the world in terms of politics, economic and governance will be toppled and therefore the USA is out to derail and stop China in any way she can. If peaceful means cannot stop  China, I will not be surprised that the US will use military methods such as instigating a war of some kind like between Taiwan and China or dragging China into a North Korean War or a direct “limited” nuclear war.

Let's hope that better heads prevail and the USA does not act out of desperation. The resources of the world are bountiful enough to make all of us rich when properly utilized. There is no such thing as a "limited" nuclear war. It take only  10 or 20 nuclear detonations to create a nuclear winter and this planet will be doomed. Remember this is the only known planet that have “intelligent” life.

As I had lived in both China and USA, I can say that the ordinary Chinese wants to dance, make money, be with their family n have a stable life. In the same way as the ordinary Americans want to watch football, baseball, basketball  , drink beer and watch TV.

However, the US ruling elite is aggressive in historical terms. The question here is about “America”, not “Americans” being jealous.

To put this is in perspective, below are some facts for you to ponder in which China is not a victim but a nation moving from undeveloped country of 1970s to now. Also you may want to read the US intelligentsia concept of "Project for the New  Century ”to know the mindset of the US neocon mentality that led to the Iraq war.

Even without the USA market, Huawei surpassed Apple in smart phone sales, earning $ US100 plus billions last year. Even without the USA car market, China is now leading in electric car manufacturing. In space, even without any help, China put the rover  on the far side of the moon and have their own space station. Independently, China has created their own supercomputers and accelerated their renewal energy industries.

Many US intellectuals convinced themselves that China cannot innovate, based on the Harvard Business School publication on March 2014, describing parallel control of CCP and the university ’s or business ’administration stifling creativity. Similar to the idiotic writing of Francis Fukuyama ’s“ End of History ”.

In fact, the USA cannot compete and is technologically in decline although she is ahead now. She wants to stop the rise of China by screaming that China is communist, authoritarian, evil and corrupt and that the USA is promoting democracy, freedom and rule of  law.

So let ’s examine the USA ’s premise:

For any country ’s development, the proof of the pudding is in the eating i.e. what are the deliverables from China thus far?

a) Rule of law for who? Look at what is happening: A US President who does not dare to show his taxes, a Republican Party which discards the US constitution that they swore to uphold by not answering congress; he openly lied to  his people, withdrew from an UN security council mandated agreement with Iran and then threatened and stopped other countries who wanted to trade with Iran, withdrew from a Climate Agreement that was signed by 120 nations and TPP (Trans Pacific Partnership) signed by 12 nations and  stopped the process of WTO by not appointing a judge for arbitration.

The USA only adopted the rule of law when it suited her interest and she will use economic sanctions on others to obey her position on the rule of law they like.

b) Freedom for whom? In the USA, real freedom is for the top 1 percent. The middle class and students are sliding into debt that they cannot pay in their lifetime. Even women n doctors there are slowly being criminalized and deprived of  freedom of choice over their own bodily health.

When other countries (like Germany) who do not want to follow her lawlessness and want to trade with emerging markets like China or Russia (via Nord Stream II gas pipeline and against the Huawei ban) or Iran, they are threatened with sanctions because USA does  not want these freedoms for these countries and companies. What right does the USA have to apply their laws on other countries and companies? If the USA wants to punish, then she should punish her own companies, not the companies and subsidiaries of other countries.

c) Democracy for whom? In Iran, the USA toppled a democratic government in 1953 under Moseddaq using CIA and now she want to provoke a war in order topple the Islamic government and make the Iranian people suffer.

The USA also illegally withheld Venezuela ’s wealth, such as repatriation of profit from her oil company and stopped Citibank which is holding her funds to pay for insulin for her people. It was rumoured that the USA also used cyber hacking to attack her electrical grid.

To punish a whole nation just because you do n’t like an Islamic government or any government is inhuman. If this is not an example of the evil of the USA, what is?

All people have a right to choose their own government, rightly or wrongly. No one demanded USA to change their regime when they toppled other governments using CIA. No one demanded the USA people to topple their government when they use “gun boat” and economic  sanctions diplomacy in Venezuela and Iran in this 21st century.

Democracy is supposed to lift many out of poverty, give the people a voice for peaceful existence and not to be used as a pretext to fight “democracy and freedom” wars or create conflicts for your own political and economic interests.

The USA is very good at this type of “democracy and freedom wars”. Not all nations are Christian and they don't follow the Christian ethos which by the way, historically, is an ethos and culture that subjugated people using slavery, physical and  cultural genocide of native people, divide and conquer tactics, racism and colonization.

China, India and Iran have their own thousands of years of ethos and culture and combined with other non Christian countries consist of more than 70% of the world population.

They do not believe the history or culture that the world's and human progress revolved around the bible or her unbelievable stories derived from Greek and Egyptian mythology. These stories caused havoc in Middle East and other l ands that had suffered greatly for hundreds of years under these  pretext of colonial wars to “civilize” the natives.

At the present time, we know and have proof that a meritocratic communist country like China can also practice Capitalist type of economic system and able to distribute wealth much better than a so-called democratic country like the USA.

For example, China lifted 700 to 800 millions people out of poverty (more than twice the population of USA) in the last 40 years without firing a bullet to enslave or subjugate another nation. This is the essence of Socialism which is to benefit the maximum  number of ordinary citizens instead of just the 1% rich. It is an epic achievement of historical proportion esp when you know that in 1970s China's GDP was dwarfed by the USA (China's $ USD1 billion vs the USA's hundreds of billions).

Am I saying what China achieved is the “be all and end all”.? Certainly not! China still has a long way to go to give her 1.4 billion people a decent livelihood (compared to USA of 300+ million people). But she  is going to do it in accordance to the historical lessons she inherited and mould the governance to suit herself.

Till today, China does not have and universal healthcare system but neither does the USA! Can you imagine that !! Being in the same situation as China !! But China is targeting to rectify that and USA is trying to deny that to her citizens by  getting rid of Obamacare.

Why can't the USA lift up her people out of poverty and homelessness and create great infrastructures such as roads, railways, airports, high speed trains, safe bridges, renewal energy etc with the wealth they had from 1970s till now? Where has all  that USA wealth gone to? Why is it that China can do this from such a low GDP in 1970s till now and the USA can't? Where is the US creativity?

Why are the American people so docile and brainwashed that they are unable to see this great gap of deliverables by their government? Is anyone calling for a people ’s revolution in USA?

All the above mentioned infrastructures were done in China in the last 40 years and these are the proof of deliverables of China ’s governance.

No amount of fear mongering and disinformation on China can negate this kind of achievement. People are not stupid. They can see for themselves by just visiting China and that's why China wants to open up to showcase their achievement n let others judge their governance and compare  .

India is envisaged to be next in line to lift her people up from poverty so long as her leadership is united. Hopefully, she will follow the direction of China (without necessarily following China's governance) and focus on the development of her people and not just  stock markets or leaders' personal glorification. Also not to open her economy to such an extent for rabid and unruly Western exploitation like that was done to the USSR. We are eagerly watching if she can deliver and cheer her on with the hope that she is  strong enough to resist Western / USA dictates against her when she wants to trade with Russia and China.

In short, we know evil n corruption when see it.

Evil  is when the USA sanctions n strangles a whole nation and companies just because she lost the competition for technology and governance.

Corruption  is when you buy influence to those that benefit you only.

Authoritarianism  is when you put a gun at someone ’s head to ensure that your economic sanctions are obeyed and when you blatantly rip off international agreements and want to change them to your benefit like the WTO and force others to follow your rule of law.

No one respects that kind of rule of law.

The USA and the West always complain that China enforced technology transfer. This is not really correct.

Remember that when China joined the WTO in 2000, she was classified as a developing nation even till now. Under that category and playing by the rules of WTO, China can protect certain industries so that these industries can grow in her country.

The US said that Huawei telecom equipment has backdoors to spy for China but they could not show any proof. They are said to have stolen intellectual properties. However, we know for a fact that the USA spied on everyone including Germany's Angela Merkel (revealed by  Edward Snowden) using Cisco equipment, Facebook, Google and Apple. Perhaps the USA wants to ban Huawei because they cannot spy through Huawei's products. On intellectual properties, Apple sued Samsung, Samsung sued Apple; it is normal in the tech world, so for  Huawei to be embroiled in these are not uncommon.

By accident or by luck, China protected her internet based industries and disallowed Google and other internet based companies to enter their spheres. If she had opened to Google, China will not have Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu, Huawei etc and all the present subsequent emerging  industries esp

AI and 5G. Also, had she opened up to Google, she would thus have invited in a “Trojan Horse”. Now, with Google banning her from using their OS, the Chinese internet industries would have been severely crippled.

This is a lesson for the whole world. Open your economy and industries to the USA technologies and risk having your nation being ransomed (by a present or future USA administration who is mad for personal, racial and seemingly fascist type of power and has no respect  for international law) when you disagree with her policies or governance like buying gas or products from Russia or China or any country which USA wants to strangle like Iran and especially when the payment transaction are not in US dollars.

The USA / Trump at present is using the rule that if you lie loud, strong n long enough, you can get the US and other media to amplify your concern then the whole world will believe you.

Huawei n China showed their performance through facts and they followed the rule of law set up by the West to show their achievements. They did their hard work and spent money for the past 30 to 40 years on research on technology and development.

China deserves to succeed!
