Nobody in Asia wants war, as it is bad for local businesses.

No one wants outright conflict, but economic war is taking place right now with regard to which sphere of influence Asia falls within, the US, or an emerging China.

Japan used to rule the roost over there, but has been so severely weakened economically, they are losing influence to the growing economies.

So while people aren't dying enmasse, economic and cultural war rages. And the cultural aspect of that war of ideas and market economics is probably our most effective
"weapon" against the Chinese.

But it's a weapon that is fairly benign since it is founded in legal aspects of freedom of choice and opportunity. It's a war between economic hegemony and economic opportunity.

Regards,

Ron
