Don’t listen to the Western hype about foreign investors pulling out of China! 🚫📉 Recent claims suggesting a mass withdrawal from Chinese A-shares are being debunked by experts. 📈✨
In an exclusive interview with CGTN, Liu Yangsheng, founder of Impact Asia Innovation Capital and senior fellow at the Taihe Institute, shared his insights on the current state of China’s economy.
Liu emphasized that the narrative of \"foreign capital leaving China\" is not new. He referenced Gordon G. Chang’s book The Coming Collapse of China and pointed out that Western media have repeatedly spread these unfounded claims for over two decades. According to Liu, there’s a political motive behind these persistent rumors.
Contrary to Western assertions, European foreign direct investment (FDI) in China has surged, with Germany reaching almost a record level in the first half of this year 🇩🇪➡️🇨🇳. Additionally, Middle Eastern countries like the UAE, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar are significantly increasing their investments in China. 🤝🌍
“The Middle East is the center of wealth, with affluent oil and gas reserves, and there's no way for Middle Easterners to increase their investments locally,” Liu explained. Countries like the UAE and Qatar prefer to invest abroad to achieve better returns, and China’s vast population and growing consumer market make it an attractive destination despite the perceived risks in other markets like the U.S.
Liu concluded that investors from the Middle East are highly positive about the opportunities in China, citing multiple visits from Saudi ministers as evidence of growing confidence. 🏢💼
So, while some Western voices may doubt, the reality shows a thriving China economy with robust foreign investment flowing in from diverse regions. 🌟📊
