This interview took place 7 years and yet most of the content is still very relevant and brilliantly expressed by Ronnie who did not spare his words. Excellent!
These 2 western women looked so dumbfounded that Mr Ronnie Chan is such an articulated person who gives very precise answers. He is so knowledgeable and learned in history,world affairs,etc.
I am very grateful to you, the Global Insight Hub, for your invaluable initiative to help me understand China's past and present. Ronnie Chan is not just a businessman in its conventional sense- an objective analyst of world history and politics.
The imperialists expect China to not learn from history like the invasion by the alliance of 8 nations, WWII japanese invasion and the opium wars. This guest has fully justified China position. Even putting protecting China economic growth aside, China has to be militarily very powerful to prevent future invasions on its soil. Stop hyping up the Taiwan issue, it's none of any other country's business. Unification of Taiwan is China's full legitimate sovereign rights, don't ever interfere.
These racists thought they were going to get a wimpering, incoherent chYnaMAn, what they got was a reality check, big time. Thank you Mr Chan. First time I've heard of him and I'm now a follower.
While the U.S. aims to maintain its global hegemony above all, China is at the centre of forging a global unipolar framework via BRICS, the SCO, and the Belt and Road.
Here lies the major difference.
China isn’t the problem, China is the solution to the problem.
What a marvelous grasp of not just the history but also the reality of human life that has brought China to this point! I am really amazed at the intellectual accomplishment of so many Chinese scholars of whom he excels in his forceful argument.
Ronnie is spot on. A lot of EU politicians do not know their historical facts, as shown recently by European Commission Vice President Kaja Kallas, who had no idea that China played a significant role in WWII, also highlighting her ignorance stating "nowadays, people don't really read".
What can be said when an insightful man speaks freely to these excellent interviewers. The truth will surely come to be seen. When will we see our own governments bow to this truth?
The journalists are projecting the collective european/usa FEARS. China is too smart and experienced (civilisation) for the biased world. They are quivering in their boots. But its unfounded based on 5000 years of history. The west's behaviourin the short time (4/500 years) has produced 2 World Wars, invaded too many countries, stole too many lands, colonised too many countries, enslaved Africans, "discovered" many countries even though people were there already..... No no no.....the West has LOST the right to rule or be No 1 country.
These journalists are so ignorantly biased irs shameful.
it's the west who were blood thirsty and bombing syria, libya, iraq etc.. it's the west who need to take the responsibility to take refugees from thoose countries.. why shift the responsibility to china
?!
Old conversation, 2018. But makes it clear how old and long term this negative attitude with European and especially German "elites" towords China is and has been.
Excellent response from Ronnie Chan to Western accusations based on ill research on facts and history by the German media. Everyone should listen to this talk to have a better understanding of current Geopolitics. Ronnie C seems to have connections with Western high officials. He seems to have so many facts, yes historical facts not hear say.
What's wrong if Xi demanded from the people of China to grow self reliance thus strengthening the nation's interests? Really, a question that reflects the inner thoughts of these Westerners! They seem to forget that the Bell Curve had indicated that the Chinese society only needs strong central authority to guide them to achieve their real strength!
Why should Asia or other regions answer Western's questions base on their own rules ? Do the west think Asia do not know how to rule their own country? Now as a matter of fact , every Asia countries and other regions have raised in many area while the west are on the verge of collapsing. Now , Westerners are living in fear that they might be contained like how they contained Asia and others . What is UN for while we lived in Westerners rules ?
From the crowd’s reaction to his comments, the crowd is already a China hater, the west was taught that it is the world’s best from the beginning of time.
I'm a (hobby) fiction writer. As such, I view things from a distance. It's the artist's curse, you (hopefullly) have what I would call wisdom in lieu of belonging. I look at my "fellow" Westerners here and listening to them talking to and questioning Mr. Chan, I can hear but one sentence: "You people are suspect. You are up to something nefarious." What can't be solved on the inside must be blamed on the outside.
They are asking him why has China become so ambitious and no longer content with being contained by the West? As if anyone wants to be subjugated by them. Something is terribly wrong with the psyche of these people.
The two interviewers obviously had not heard of or chose to be ignorant about the Schindler of East. Tens of thousands of Jews were issued visas to enter China just before the pogrom started in Europe. The then Great Britain and the USA had denied the Jews the visas to enter their countries.
These reporters from «Der Spiegel» look paranoid trying to make Ronnie Chan reveal China's real intentions of WORLD DOMINATION. Remember that it was the West the one that started it with colonialism. Remember that it was Karl Marx [born in Germany] the one that started Socialism. The West considers Socialism a threat to freedom ... wouldn't it be that "freedom with power" is the foundation of world domination by the West?
Sorry to say that, if these 2 are regarded or representing the European Elites, EU is then very incompetent. No wonder EU Wests & US are deteriorating both economically, intellectually & influence.
This guy has the best style to deal with these western clowns. Animated indignation against the foolishness gets the message across much more definitively than Kishore Mubani’s approach imo!
How could they still defend the US after 80 years of political, economical interference and resources grabbing, having no diplomacy at all and all the Coups d'État ? Oh, yes, for sure, the US posted a military base in their country to prevent them to say anything and Europe is using the US military power umbrella to boost their own economy while financing no military needs to finance social or economical programs... Like the NordStream that the US blew up.
The whole arrogant west should be watching this video instead of the self righteous attitude to assume what China is and totally disregarding and disrespecting history.
One can sence the fear of western "journalists" whenever it comes to China..."are they(China) going to do the same to us like we(West) did to them(China)".
Mr. Ronnie Chan's take down of these two ladies from the German media, was brutal indeed: A brutally honest take down.
The response of Mr. Chan with regard to the reliability of Russia, was the only non-factual aspect during this whole event (in 2018), as Russia has never relinquished its responsibility with regard to energy deals.
Now in 2025 one is curious to here Mr. Chan's views, or changes of views, on this particular matter.
The friendly relationship (Chimerica) was broken by the Obama administration's 2011 "Pivot to Asia", which shifted the focus of US foreign policy from the Middle East to Asia. This, along with the wargaming of a sea blockade of Chinese commercial ships on a global scale, the formation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), which deliberately excluded China, the establishment of a 2500-strong US marine air-ground task force in Darwin, and an increase in the rotation of both US Air Force planes and US Navy vessels through Australian bases, alarmed the Chinese leadership.
Knowing that they are the focus of US foreign policy and unable to remain passive, hide their strength, and bide their time, Xi Jinping was selected as the leader of China in 2012 to make China less vulnerable to external threats. These included the establishment of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, the Belt and Road Initiative, and the building of artificial islands in the South China Sea. In 2015, the "Made in China 2025" initiative was announced. These policies directly responded to the perceived threat posed by the "Pivot to Asia" strategy. No country is excluded from joining the AIIB or the Belt and Road Initiative. Obama's intentions were clarified when he responded to Xi Jinping's proposal on September 25, 2015, to make the South China Sea (SCS) a non-militarized zone by initiating freedom of navigation operations in the SCS on October 27, 2015.
European colonialism was a brutal system built on terrorism, genocide, and exploitation. For nearly five centuries, imperial powers enslaved millions, destroyed communities, and looted the wealth of Africa, Asia, and Latin America. They enforced racial supremacy, imposed their culture and religion, and maintained control through violence and fear. The legacy of this violence still fuels poverty, instability, and division across the world. In sharp contrast, China offers a pragmatic model based on mutual benefit, investing in infrastructure and economic growth without a history of colonial violence. China builds trust through partnerships focused on development and trade, presenting itself as a reliable friend to regions historically scarred by European brutality. This stark difference allows China to earn influence and cooperation in Africa, Latin America, and Asia while Europe struggles under the weight of its shameful past and frankly have no say in all this.
The German interviewers used euphemisms and nebulously vague terms to insinuate what China's intentions are. They do this to the point of indulging in weasel words.
America with 800 bases around the world using gun boat mentality to lie, steal resources and regime change past 70 years so rightly USA is a tyrant containing China and many other developing nations. The pathetic West are mostly vessel states of USA depending on American military and arms supply. America today is desperate and declining empire so lash out on the world with sanctions saying USA is a great consumer economy and nations want to sell to Americans. Well, I like Netflix why don’t USA provide this service free to the world other than spreading bio weapons and corona to kill humanity.
Very amazing- Ronnie, bravos!, Ronnie. Ever come across this debate in my first time with very informative facts from Ronnie? Very interesting, with powerful logical facts that the West is still always biased and uses dirty tactics. The US mafia leads the West to contain China, not China containing them. The two Germans don't know what happened in history. Please, don't draw a line to divide the share value. Good facts had again been reviewed and absorbed in my mind. China's true historical facts were true and real. Now the West mafia were keen to change and twist the actual real fact to contain China's rise. Even Professor Jeffery Sachs, Richard Wolff, Kishore Mahbubani, Greek-Yannis, Martin Jacques, and David Qualaloo had also spoken out about the right facts about China's rise, which the WEST and the US contain China. Except Pro. John Mearsheimer is a bit odd, twisted by facts about China. Other like Brian, Norton, VJ Prasad, Jayant, Pavine Shaween, and many other had spokes about China impressive rising. The US and the West had smeared China's policy for the last 300 years until now. The spent around the world from 4500 million to $1.5billion to sabotage China friendly group. Riot, chaos in certain country recently. We know that the decline of Western and US power makes them worry and fear. Asia is also a rising power in multilateralism due to China's rise on the right path.
Love the true articulation of the facts. The West, Europe and the USA in its barbaric entitlement and total injustice is so apparent, such a force of quantum racialisation that has endlessly violated the Global Majority. Give peace a chance.
Western world does not understand China, and i hope that people listening to Ronnie Chan can put a clear perspective about China. Thank you Honorable Mr. Ronnie Chan.
The question regarding whether china will take refugees today - it seems to be a common one for the western people to ask. They ask it from an arrogant position because many western countries have been taking refugees and migrants.
But they should not be so proud about it. Most of the west went and claimed many lands in the Americas, Pacific, Asia and Africa. Whilst China did Not go land grabbing, so it really doesn't have the obligation to take people in. After all its own population is so large.
The western countries outside of Europe were low in population and were originally stolen lands.
The extent of western antagonism and ingrained prejudice towards China and Chinese people are UNFATHOMABLE. Germany, like all their imperialist buddies, are birds of a feather.
I wonder what the Germans would say today! Still talking rubbish? They don't even know the history of China and the facts surrounding their questions! How embarrassing!!
All very fine, but don't call those two women "Two European Elites".
I never have heard of them, and outside of Germany even less people will know them.
Btw. this is the original video (already 7 years old): watch?v=BVjQ9ueHva0
The hypocrisy of the westerners is clearly revealed by these 2 “journalists” in 2018 & their actions or lacked of them r nakedly demonstrated in Ukraine & Palestine
Bluntly speaking dont waste your time, US is a big bully with poodles always be in front to protecting him, especially from the white in the west, who cares like the Germans.
I wonder if these two ladies (journalists) Have learned something today 2025. They seem to be polite but indoctrinated as Chomsky would say “manufactured consented”
Demand not Chinese submission. Demand for the submission of baseless CHINA PHOBIA!
Contain not your own Inadequacies. Better contain your Greed and Demands for Economic Submission of others.
This interview was 7 years ago and is TOTALLY spot on even today.... Ronnie's foresight was incredible.
Totally spot on with EV and green energy (24:00) as an example but now that they have done it, instead of saying well done, they find a negative slant to it, oh look, they are dumping EV, solar panels, etc... Damned if they do, damned if they don't
43:13 People in the audience don't dare to answer him because they know the west's propaganda won't be letting them continue to work if they're not compliant with it. Westerns medias (or pseudo journalists) are so hypocritical. They work for the few, they're paid by them and learned step by step from school to the workplace to be totally obedient to the point they beleive it because the results are here ! They are successful ! Successfully standardized ! Successfully everything but having critical thinking. It's a sausage factory. They throw the parts they don't want away... How special they think they are... Yeah... it's really special to be so... The sames few... thinking all the same... brainwashed subject of the few billionaires... Who will never respect you btw... Like you don't even respect the audience.
She thinks that Freedom Tuantu allows people to burn the American flag and speak out against the American government as they please without being punished. These two media women and many Westerners are wrong.
Yeah, a lot of questions about Uyghurs and Tibet need people to do their own research and look into the rubbish spouted by the West about prisons holding millions when the largest prison in the world only holds 10,000 and then they changed it to open world prison. Then there's the Dalai Lama, self sacrificing saint. Look at the wealth his family holds and how people were treated during his time and before as slaves and serfs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TXZK-8nHS4&list=PLCa5xyia-XwVLCZhdqCLhpCkdSoxzzvNO
Those 2 interviewers where trying to inject misinformation into their questions like 'CHINA CONTAINING US', this Ronnie guy didn't let them get away with it but correcting them on the spot.... 'US is Containing China'...
You can see that they are completely un-willing to accept the facts and information despite not knowing any details or facts themselves.
Also funny that Ronnie has better English than the Germans...
I don't believe these 2 German ladies are numpties, instead they possess great skills in ignoring facts and the mentality of 'Do what I say and not what I do' and to be fair, such personal gifts are not limited to them two or Germany.
How do you respond to the Gangsters who invade and colonize your country ? Are these gangsters allowed to teach Humanity and Freedom after they conquered and colonised your country ?
Why are the Chinese in Tibet and Xinjiang? Because it was parts of many empires and China fought for it and protected it. Now Why are European in North Americas, Australia, New Zooland , Hawaii and have military bases ( USA) in Asia? Its we the Asian, West Asia, Central Asia, Africa, South America, Russia that dont trust your Uncle Sam and their EU vassals. We trust China there in Asia than America, if America is located where China is , there will be war constantly. Dont pretend with your EU crocodile tears about " worry" about our Asian affairs or South China sea, you European and your Uncle Sam sugar daddy cant solve jacksh*t but create more chaos.
The West is resisting in every way to continue to control, enslave and steal the rights of people. Now these two beauties are trying to show that they are smart in order to maintain control over the countries of the world today in this way because the West can no longer maintain its continuity through military force, and this is a failed attempt to play with intelligence by these two beauties.
Herannya....
Sudah sejak 7 tahun lalu Ronnie Chan memberikan fakta yang ada tentang China pada masyarakat Barat; hingga saat ini pun cara pandangan orang-orang Barat terhadap China dan Rusia, masih terkungkung dalam pola pikirnya yang tidak bijaksana. Sungguh sebuah ironi
The only things China needs to learn is having the bigger punch and btw China isn't the one to do away games and all the firepowers are concentrated around them.
The rigor of research is as good in China? Do you want to rethink and restate that?! I think China the most rigor in research across a wide spectrum - entire STEM. That is the a fact perhaps a "New Normal" that you must internalize.
The whites, here, are literally saying "You never asked us to give you permission to grow... we want to be part of that growth and you must stay beneath us"
The West is resisting in every way to continue to control, enslave and steal the rights of people. Now these two beauties are trying to show that they are smart in order to maintain control over the countries of the world today in this way because the West can no longer maintain its continuity through military force, and this is a failed attempt to play with intelligence by these two beauties.
I appreciate that they asked question and try to learn, unlike a certain Tom Cotton. But to ask why don't China take a the role in making other countries (north Korea) be more responsible. What they mean is forcing North Korea to do what the West want. Be subservient to Western "authority". Why should China do that? Why would China do that? Just because china don't want a nuclear power crazy neighbor, doesn't mean China should help the West assert it's dominance. If being respectable means subservient to the West, why would anyone want that "respect"?

Two of the worst journalists on a panel. Spiegel is like the worst media anyways. Everybody in germany knows that. It's trash. And watching 7 years later this video just shows that he was right already then. Green country, who registered most electric cars for example?Just to point out the least important one. But ideology is so ridiculous in Europe. Hypocrites.
The only fact that UNITED the CGG at end of the meeting was not take any action against the USA and it's atack dog apartheid regime israhell
These CGG Countries are completly cumpliced on gaza genocide and are lackeys of the declain USA empire
They are resisting to the empire fall
Jose Raimundo Jose Falcao Jose Mateus José Luis Roquete Albano Jose Henriques Aires Esteves
Now china India Africans Arabs turks Persians others ways rising economically they gave to be shown theirplace don't fall to honeytrappers like Epsteins crowds,
Sorry Ronnie, that number 1 is going down, and no matter what, China will have to take that number 1, the responsibility China has been running away, letting that former number 1 ruining all parts of the world is now coming back to haunt China.
So what if China is communist? YOU want to go to war to save the Chinese people? Like you Westerners did to the rest of the world since WWII, in Africa, South America, West Asia (with the most abnoxious remnant of the White settlement colonial project) etc? Coups, overthrow of governments, wars, causing millions of deaths? And what has/had happened to these countries? Do proper research please.
