Currently reading....

Me currently reading.. "The coming collapse of China" by Gordon Chang. Me still halfway through the book and the book does not hold my interest any more. The book is not about the collapse of china as a country or economy. The book trumpets and beats around the bush trying to drive home the point that the communist and authoritative government in china will soon fall or collapse. The book is 99% about the collapse of communism and its marxist methods and policies. The book does not doubt or undermine the potential of China, instead the author repeatedly tells us that this authoritarian power hungry govt in the hands of the communist party will fall soon, bcoz of various reasons. Got bored, felt that the same point was repeated more than once,... yes this is how the books talks again and again about the same old thing. Me have read till around page number 110 or so and its the same old story. Me just think that this book is one which gives a pessimistic view abt china rather the normal goody goody nice and exagarated reports from McKinsey or Goldman Sachs. However no harm in reading.
