[quote=ICEBLUE,256045]He might get a rude awakening that most of these people are not on the same wavelength as he is. China is so vast and fast-changing that coming up with a 'Third Scenario' is by no means a sign of genius. There could be a hundred scenarios for China and each is valid because it can get an abundance of facts to back it up. The rosy picture about China in Thomas Friedman's The World Is Flat is more than soothing; it's intoxicating. But it's only one scenario out of hundreds, and quite far-fetched. If you change his 'soothing' and 'upheaval' terms into more generic 'positive' and 'negative', his own forecast could fall snugly into the second one. Think of it, it's a variation of the 'upheaval scenario'. [/quote]
