Where do you place China yourself development wise today?

What does that actually mean as a questio ? Like what is the range of possible answera, is it answered with a year, or something else?

I mean do you see China becoming the next world power? I do myself, though not nearly as long as a reign as America had, I foresee a 15 year thereabout hold from China until the country falls into the typical issues that the Western world has faced + Japan faced since the 90's.

> I mean do you see China becoming the next world power

I don't see there being a next clear world power because I don't think the world works that way anymore.. capital is way too trans-national at this point.

China is a split society. Many are still in poverty, per capita gdp is very low. However it’s a huge country and several hundred million now have western standard of living.

This is definitely true, although it is worth noting that many of those in rural poverty have also seen huge improvements to their condition (number making under $2 PPP/hr has gone from 700 million to 2 million in a matter of 2 decades) and many of the cities in traditionally rural provinces are booming.
