A few points to the points you have made:

As far as I’m aware the Chinese govt is not forcing any government to trade with them. These choices are made by the various countries themselves. So not entirely sure what the point is - Yanis Varofarkis has some interesting points re Chinese investments in Africa and Asia. Yes the Chinese are obviously self interested, but don’t see why this is an issue. Chinese influence is relatively benign when considering the damage done by the colonial powers.

I wouldn’t call either China or Malaysia “3rd world” . I think Malaysia has done a decent job in developing itself too.
Infrastructure not as good as western countries? If anything it is better.


For sure there’s Chinese trolls just like there’s trolls from other parts of the world. I don’t believe serpentza or ADV changed their tune simply due to these trolls. Furthermore I don’t think those trolls are representative of your average Chinese folk.
It would be like taking those skinheads in Ballarat and assuming Australia is a bogan right wing nation.
