Why Views About China Are So Different in the Global North and South

- China is deeply unpopular in the U.S., UK, Japan, and most other wealthy countries, and given the politics in those regions, there's no indication that's going to change anytime soon. It's a very different story, though, in large parts of developing Asia, Africa, the Americas and the Middle East where public opinion surveys reveal generally favorable views of the Chinese.
A new "poll of polls" by the Asia Society Policy Institute (ASPI) on global public opinion about China reveals a lot more nuance about how people in the Global South feel about their countries' ties with China than what is framed in the mainstream media narratives.
Andrew Chubb, a senior fellow at ASPI, led the project and joins Eric & Cobus to discuss what the data tells us about the diversity of views on China across the Global South.

Public Opinion on China in the Global South - asiasociety.org/policy-institute/global-public-opinion-china/public-opinion-china-global-south by the Asia Society Policy Institute (ASPI)
I'M in TEXAS, USA... ANY place that has NO daily mass shootings, NO looting, and is efficient in manufacturing, provides for its citizens is ALREADY a country the world needs to learn from and do business with!
This is what the nationalist yanks (NY) would dream that china will turn into but unfortunately it has leap leap from the stable to to greater nation greater & more beautiful the the US which we can many tents being erected on their streets with horrific scream coming out from the tents as result of the American night mare which the NY r trying to hide
Like Sudan?
The USA keeps saying American capitalism is the best way to organize an economy, yet it is Communists/Socialist countries that produce affordable manufactured goods for people around the world.
@@edmundleung2098 . What about Sudan? Have you lived there for more than weeks? I have. Not sure if you know what you are yapping about.🤣🤣
Way to go ,pal ! Hurrah to you in Texas !🎉
Your enemy are not my enemy. Telling me to choose. That's a colonial mindset
I love China and look up to.
Looks like China is doing pretty good. Western media is global media. So discrepancy is basically a measure of the influence of western media around the world.
US Congress spends $1.6 billion to mainstream medias to spread lies and propaganda on China. Sadly, many Americans and Europeans who haven't been to China believe in the lies and propaganda on China. China is now giving 144 hours visit to China visa free. TH-camrs, like "Sunkissed Bucket List", "Ken Abroad" and several others especially those from the UK who visited China said that they've been lied to by their medias. Sunkissed Bucket List went to China four times and there are more to come. Other TH-camrs have been to China more than once.

My earlier comment was deleted by TH-cam and this is the "freedom of speech" spread by America and the west. What a joke. Western medias propaganda on China.

Exactly. The MSM in G7 nations have a consistently negative bias narrative to paint China as a dystopian society and a threat to their citizenry. Why?
The Possible reasons are:
(1) the societal elites in developed nations fear of a successful competitor coming from the non-West
(2) the Western leaders are worried that their citizens will become disenchanted with the unfairness in their own society between the "haves" and " have-nots"
(3) their citizenry are subjected to a longitudinal exposure of negative narratives about China, resulting in a skewed / bias view of Chinese people and society
(4) petty-minded envy of the success of others that live outside their system, especially when the trajectory of their economy is in the opposite directions to each other.
That's because the ŰȘ pays foreign media to blast their propaganda
All so wordy about their bean counting methodology . Perhaps the more relevant question should be ' What CHINA thinks of the global north !'😂
11:00 consolidation of corporate media in the West contributed to the negative perception of China
I am in the UK and I love China!
Congrats to reaching the 15 years milestone of this program! Your team's efforts in providing readers/audience insightful information and diverse opinions in the areas neglected by the so-called MSM but increasingly important in our world are appreciated. Even in this episode, you have put world opinions about China in perspectives and injected nuances, complications and distortions into the topic. We look froward to many more '15 years' of fairness and balance of China-Global South Project. Thank you!
Asia Society & ASPI what a joke of two apparent NGO's. Look at what entities fund these two places and one can tell why their views on China. Esp their views on the Xinjiang apparent issue.
Because we do not think nor need to work the way the west work. We solve our problems our way and don't interfere with others
A good interview as always.
want to understand the north-south disparity on China, look up christianty TH-cam videos you get the answer.
areas with predominant christian population hold stronger anti china opinion. church is behind this.
Christianity is a product of the west.
Lol what about India.
It's always a guide to the ordinary and the educated.
We would love see India poll as well with its neighboring countries

The world will Love China 🇨🇳 again if they stop their bad relationship with Russia Iran and NorthKorea. China needs to team up with Mexico🇲🇽, Indonesia🇮🇩, Brazil🇧🇷, Poland🇵🇱, and Argentina🇦🇷 for success.👍😉
Which world? 😂
@@MianguangHan The one with coloured skin.
How are Russia nk Iran bad? Did they bomb anybody or you have extremely low ÎQ?
By the way, Chinese diaspora opinions in SEA are not a monolith. Besides the urban elite-rural divide, some people have more affinity with Taiwan and/or HK and see the mainland as a bully.
Depends on what they subscribe to.
In the thumbnail caption, "What the world thinks of China ?" should be "What does the world think of China ?"
Grammatical mistake. Please correct it.
Thank you for catching that. We really appreciate it and have corrected the thumbnail image.
@@chinaglobalsouth English is probably not your native tongue. Also in another video of yours a couple of weeks ago, "What future for China-Israel ?", it should be "What does the future hold for China-Israel ?"
Such a perfectionist! Are you an English teacher?
