There is growing alarm at the inexorable rise of China, both of its military prowess and its aggressive bullying of other countries plus its subjugation of whole portions of its own population. IMAGE: People's Liberation Army soldiers in Beijing. Photograph: Jason Lee/Reuters Under Chairman Xi Jinping, China has accelerated its militarisation, with constant remonstrations for the People's Liberation Army (PLA) to modernise and to boost its loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Ominously, Xi spends a lot of time telling the populace to prepare for an all-out 'struggle'. At the same time, Xi has stamped his authority on every single aspect of Chinese society so as to control the thinking and behavior of his 1.4 billion subjects. There is growing fear among China's neighbors, and Western countries like the United States, that China will stoke a war. For now, the PLA is using 'gray zone' tactics, behavior short of armed struggle but which is nonetheless coercive ... » Learn More about Why the rise of China’s military worries the world

Strategy will consolidate nation's key role in global market, say experts China is seeking a new position in the global economy, aiming to simultaneously become a "world market" and a "world factory", which will consolidate its key role in the global market, with deeper integration into global society, according to top-level policy advisers. That is a blueprint not only for guiding this year's economic work, but also setting a basic principle for China's 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25), indicating policymakers' determination to further open the domestic market. Legislators and political advisers will gather in Beijing this week to discuss the key issues of China's development at the annual sessions of the National People's Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.

Editor's note: Stephen Ndegwa is a Nairobi-based communication expert, lecturer-scholar at the United States International University-Africa, author and international affairs columnist. The article reflects the author's opinions, and not necessarily the views of CGTN. The official announcement in Beijing on Thursday by President Xi Jinping proclaiming "complete victory" against extreme poverty was as bold as the feat itself. Equating the achievement to a "miracle" of historical significance, Xi declared that "the country has created a 'China example' of poverty reduction and made great contributions to global poverty alleviation." By reaching the milestone, China has contributed to the eradication of poverty in the world by 70 percent for the fact that the country has the largest population in the world. Further, this is also a landmark for the first goal of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which seeks to "end poverty by all its forms everywhere." Indeed, ... » Learn More about China changes the conversation on poverty alleviation

ATHENS - The Greek government is eager to continue cooperation with China in the post-pandemic era, as China has contributed significantly to Greece's economic recovery in recent years, Greek Minister of Development and Investments Adonis Georgiadis told Xinhua in a recent interview. The COVID-19 pandemic plunged the Greek economy into recession. The country has just started to recover after a severe decade-long debt crisis that pushed it to the brink of bankruptcy. Priorities and timetables in the government's plans have changed, as has happened across the world. As mass vaccinations have brought hope for an exit from the health crisis, Greece wants to return to the right track and resume its collaboration with China in many fields at full speed, the minister said. "We are eager to continue our plans and our follow-up of investments here in Greece and find ways to leave behind all this pandemic crisis and continue our lives," Georgiadis said, ahead of the "two sessions" in ... » Learn More about Greece eager to continue cooperation with China in post-pandemic era, says minister

GUANGZHOU - Leading Chinese respiratory disease expert Zhong Nanshan and top US infectious disease expert Anthony Fauci have called for global solidarity and cooperation to fight against COVID-19. The epidemiologists exchanged their views in an online conversation hosted by the University of Edinburgh Tuesday night Beijing time. The two believed that global cooperation is essential in the epidemic control. Novel coronavirus is an enemy of all mankind, said Zhong, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a leading expert in China's respiratory disease research. "If the coronavirus still spreads in some individual countries, COVID-19 cannot be said to be fully controlled worldwide. If we want to end this epidemic, we need appropriate science-based, evidence-based decisions by decision-makers in each country. Everyone should do their best. So we need global solidarity," Zhong said. Zhong believed that some unscientific, inhumane means of "natural immunity" should ... » Learn More about Top China, US epidemiologists call for global cooperation to fight COVID

CHICAGO－Sharp increases in China's retail sales volume during the Lunar New Year holiday week in February indicates that China has become a linchpin of not only the global supply chain but also global consumer spending, said a US scholar. China saw strong holiday spending nationwide, including by rural households and in tier-3 and tier-4 cities, Khairy Tourk, professor of economics at the Stuart School of Business, which is part of the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, told Xinhua News Agency. Chinese youth now "represent 25 percent of the country's population but 60 percent of total spending growth". This is the first year ever when China prompted the development of the digital yuan, and "there has been a jump in sales among Chinese brand names, which shows the rise of high quality in Chinese manufacturing," Tourk said. "The Chinese middle-income group has experienced the fastest expansion the world has ever seen.
