Actually, I was talking to my assistant in Ningbo last night, and China is sufferring a similar panic to what we are seeing here. She said real estate is losing value, stock market is bad, its the same story as here just refried a bit.

The Chinese are starting to settle in eastern Russia, too. I guess they'll claim squatters rights and nationalize it. Russia's a bit too chaotic to start a war with China.
