“If you come or do not come, we will be here,” said Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Qin Gang.

The best argument for normalizing the nation I've ever heard. Hope Japan's politicians and public are listening.

(A) "I'm here", What it takes to mean, firsly, as in geographical term; China is an Asian country, is a country where Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean are at hands' reach. You come all the way and tell that you are returning to Asia, is actually come interferring the affairs of Asian people. "I'm here," is to tell Americans that, as an outsider, what ever you try to do here in Asia is in no way can be done without the presence of Chinese, and not at all you can do any damage to the interests of China, because, China will not allow it.

(B) "I'm here", as in political term; China is Asia's largest country, this is as obvious, unlike what the United States', claimed as a leader in the Pacific, cynically, is completely self-throned. China is not only the largest economy in Asia, and is Asia's power house, and the best trading partner. Together With all others advantageous(huge landscape, large population, unique cultures, moderate diplomatic policies and hard working people) components, China deserved to be destined by the heavenly, as a great nation(天命所归是大国)in Asia.

What "I'm still here" means, whether you admit it or not, I still stand as firm and strong as a superpower in Asia.

Nothing can skip China on Asian's affair, whether you come or do not come.
