China unveils new leadership with Xi Jinping at helm

The more the change, the more the same.

The more the change, the more the same.

History of the world... Except for when the people take matters into their hands, and then its leaders become the politicians in turn.

Meh. Big deal. won't change a thing. change will only come when Chinese get sick of same old same old or China goes to war with one of its neighbours.

congratulations & hope this young leader will provide strong leadership and sChina will continue to play a constructive role in world politics & economy.

I really don't care, I just hope whoever gets in will be like the next Gorbachev or Yeltsin that changed the USSR into what it is today. China needs that kind of direction.

China needs a new government not a new leader.

If they can rein in corruption, they have potential to tap and the capacity to grow.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely!

they have been going through leaders fairly quickly. Almost as bad as the old Soviet Politburo

After one read some informations of this new leader on the net, one can assume that he is a good man, and then one can have some hope for better future of China in the area like human rights, equality, peace with its neighbors...How can one good man in the system of bad do anything is remained to be seen to believe.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss!

This in an America U-Tube video recently, as significant world wide or just a propaganda stunt? (See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UT2yYs5YJs) (See: http://www.investmentu.com/2011/September/thorium-the-future-of-nuclear-power.html)

"It is imperative that no Eurasian challenger emerges, capable of dominating Eurasia and thus of also challenging America... In that context, how America 'manages' Eurasia is critical... the three grand imperatives of imperial geostrategy are to prevent collusion and maintain security dependence among the vassals, to keep tributaries pliant and protected, and to keep the barbarians from coming together.”

Will clean safe Thorium fissioned Electricity prove to be the final block with which the Communist Chinese will seek to build Empire? Is the Chinese "Population Bomb" still a factor? Can America make huge loans from China to "kick the can down the road" one more time, and still stand in China's way in Asia, or will the U.S. involve as mercenaries? As they did in Iraq, on Saudis behalf? The ball seems in China's court now?

China’s leaders must embrace democracy abandoning one-party rule.
