The main reason for China has to buy so much US$ debt is because they want to remain RMB peg. Now the peg is gone, replaced by an undisclosed mixed basket of currencies (who knows, might even have commodities<g>). So China can maintain the exchange rate of RMB at any level they want by changing the weight of each currency in that basket.

As a matter of fact, I agree to this following author, US$ might be given less and less weight (not most weight as most people assumed), thus, unloading the US$ debt without anyone notice. That is a very smart move.
