Foreign Affairs,May/June 2009:China by Economy and Segal

US-Chinese concrete cooperation is currently weak. Henry Kissinger and Zbigniew Brzezinski have called for a heightened bilateral relationship between the US and China since both nations share some fundamental foreign policy goals: kickstarting economic growth and maintaining peace and stability in East Asia and halting clilmate change(binomics) plus defense policy coordination. The National Security Council and the VP Office could ideally play a central role in this effect.

I have sent my previous blogs with the same rationale.

Similarly, a more centralized US approach to China will lead to more effective cooperation with US allies such as UK,Australia,Japan,Korea,France and Germany.

Japanese Premier Aso visited China a few days ago and Chinese high-ranking official Wang will visit UK in Europe next week for talks apropos of global economic recovery.

The time has bome to have knowledge of Chinese language and Chinese culture to have better understanding of the minds of the Chinese.

"A Glimpse of the Chinese Language" in English is available at www.rand.org free of charge at pdf format. "Philosophy of Mencius" is available at the Library of Congress.(www.loc.gov) for useful reference.

Francis Shieh aka Xie Shihao with Moxie (in English)in English as an octogenarian blogger with pep to move smoothly as optimistic sashay. Sashay would mean so said by Shay which sounds like Shieh but should be XIE in official Pin Yin system of romanization. If such description poses confusion,apology is hereby given to the readers.
