#1 Japan (and the US) should disinvest in China and invest in India. Democracy and and distance in case they get whacky. And they speak English and don't have the baggage the Chinese carry around with them all the time.

#2 But the Indians don't have slavery and a communist Army interested in exploiting the rural poor.

#4 China also doesn't have an actively hostile, nuclear-armed neighbor who is on the brink of being taken over by religious zealots, whom are absolutely convinced they will get even more virgins in heaven if they only irradiate their heathen cousins.

#5 That is a very good point, but when you look over at Chinas neighbors like North Korea which acts as the nuclear armed pit bull for China from time to time and their facination with Taiwan which is likely to lead to a war as well.
