>>4846202Inclined to say the latter. The Chinese branch made hardly any money (Coco alone made more money than it) and if cover has even an ounce of common sense, they'll know they aren't welcome back in it anyway.
I think Coco is genuinely graduating over her own accord her. It would make no sense for cover to drop their second biggest earner to go back to a market that made them a lot of trouble and very little money.
>>4853792>ChinaChina is due to go through massive issues a decade down the line due to demographic issues, namely that it has one of the worst population pyramids I've ever seen (refer to pic related). When its current working population starts retiring, there's going to be nowhere near enough young people to support it, and its going to have way too many single young men, which is going to cause a fuckton of unrest down the road. China also has absolutely no soft power. Its cultural exports are so low quality that it has to import foreign produce to entertain its own youth. The most popular music is imported from Korea, the most popular films are imported from America, and there favorite video games are Imported from Japan. On top of that, China has done a brilliant job in recent years of making the world hate it. NGMI
>IndonesiaIndonesia shouldn't have realistically survived this long, it has 300 languages and covers an area wider than the Continental United States, and is the 4th most unequal country on earth, which is only made worse by the fact that its wealth is often divided along ethnic lines. Its also not a naval power, and has an economy that's almost entirely dependent on foreign powers, if global capital shrinks then that'll hit the Indonesian economy like a truck. The only thing keeping it together right now is that its in both US and Chinese best interest to keep it unified. USA is becoming increasingly isolationist, and China's position as a world power is tenuous due to reasons previously stated. NGMI
You're right about India and Vietnam though. Turkey and Iran will also probably see an upswing if religious fundamentalism doesn't get in the way.
