Why? It has a high standard of living and is making huge investments
in science and technology. It's a good place to work if you're in
certain sciences. Its star is certainly on the rise.
If you will recall where the ship in the 1965 movie "Ship of
Fools" (and the 1962 novel by Katherine Anne Porter on which it was
based) was headed, you will realize what aspect of the People's
Republic of China it is that I consider an overriding concern.
