China As Full Grown Dragon. This Is The New Normal.
Kent Kedl over at China Business Blog and Podcast just posted a transcript of a recent podcast in which he discusses whether China has "become too expensive." The post is entitled, "China Too Expensive, It's Time to Recalibrate 'Normal'," and in it, Kedl gives the only smart answer to the question as to whether China has become too expensive: "it depends." Read it for that and read it to hear what one of China's best and oldest (in terms of time in China) and funniest business consultants has to say about the current state of business in China. It makes for an excellent read.

There is a new book called the Biography of Sun Wu by Osita Iroku, of course, which talks about how the Chinese state Wu rose from being an underdeveloped nation into a superpower in just one generation. Doesn't that sound like modern day China? If we want to know what to expect of China next, shouldn't we study what they did the last time they rose to greatness?

It is now one week after the Obama election and several predictions made in one book have come true already: Iran and China are flexing their muscles against a weakened America. and China is taking over Africa. The book, Reflections of Barack Hussein Obama, by Osita Iroku and Paul Olweny, which was published in June 2008, is on a very frightening track to becoming a modern day prophecy.
