But it seems in the interview that she's not talking about redefining China's government from Communism. It sounds like they are fine with their system and reforming what wasn't working, and watching the west. She does have a good point about people trying to push their values onto others.
They certainly are in the global economy and making money....so they are Capitalist China, but Communist Capitalist China.
Not democratic China.
And I gotta admit, if I were watching the democratic nations from afar, I would have my jaw dropping open at the corruption, violence, and capitalist crime that is going on.
It makes me sick.

Did you read the interview, though?
Here is her last recorded remark:
SPIEGEL: How does it feel to be viewed as a new economic superpower?
Fu Ying: It is flattering.
SPIEGEL: Does it make you nervous, as well?
Fu Ying: Not at all. We don't view ourselves as a superpower. You are not going to see a USA or a Soviet Union in China. You are going to see a culturally nourished country with a big population, being more content, being happy, being purposeful -- and it will be a friend to the world. There is no reason to worry about China.
I hope anyone who stopped by will take the time to read her article. It was quite enlightening as to one Chinese minister's point of view.
