When Kishore is asked, “Is China a bully?”, he responds that there is no such thing as a benevolent great power. The best wisdom on how to manage China is Vietnam, which means you need to both stand-up and get-along with China. While China has become “assertive”, it is not yet “aggressive”. Also, Kishore answers whether the US can restore trust after Trump and which job is tougher, President of the US or of China.

It’s always refreshing to hear Kishore speaking, a decidedly well-balance view than some lopsided ones.

HK Taiwan are traditional Chinese territories. The west created all the mess in the relationship of these islands with mainland. Now what China is doing is “settling their Old Unclosed accounts”. Which is very normal..

Had China ever start a fight with anyone? What she did was merely an act to other's provocations. Should this reaction be taken as an act of bully?

As for the South China Sea, please read up the Potsdam Declaration and the WWII Surrender Documents defining the terms of surrender. In 1947 the Allied helped China by using their warships to ferry Chinese military personnel to erect stone markers in those South China Sea Islands to signify that the islands belongs to China. After CCP took over China in 1949 and in the heat of McCarthyism, in 1951 the US convened the San Francisco Conference without China's presence to declare those South China Sea islands as under dispute. Such action clearly showed the US had acted unfairly towards the people of China and China itself, without mentioning the destabilization it had willfully caused. What is appropriate or not is not defined by doing what's right but by the political ideology that one country adopted. What a shame for any one to claim as a world leader.

From the misleading title and description to the abrupt cut at the end regarding "democracy". I hope America can genuinely improve.

Why is it the US only wants to compete? Gunslinger style? Why not look at common ground and interests and beginning to cooperate for the benefit of all?

Why do we have to see the entire world exclusively in the perverted exclusive view of the failed state of the US?

US is the biggest bully in the history, the West raised by invading, colonising and bombing other countries and China rise is due to its rich civilisation, competent central government and the hard woking people.

An absolute pleasure to listen to the wisdom of this greatest sage of our times... only if the hubris cultivated by west take a back seat, writing is on the wall, hegemonic days of western powers are about to be over. West should be ready to embrace the rise of China. Cannot wait enough!!
