Why Is China Going to Latin America? “The game is simple but unprecedented. Whereas Britain put 30 to 40 million people through an industrial revolution in the mid-to-late 19th Century and had the colonies to draw its raw materials from; whereas America put 150 million people through an industrial revolution at the turn of the 20th Century and had its own raw materials; China is putting 1.3 billion people through an industrial revolution with neither colonies nor substantial indigenous resources besides coal."

Brazil:

Brazil, the largest economy in the region, is clearly China’s most important partner, both as a market for Chinese goods and also as a source of commodities. Brazil currently supplies over 40% of all Chinese soybeans, and 65% of Brazil’s iron ore is shipped to China. Brazil’s status as the most populous Latin country also makes it an important destination for Chinese products, including footwear, electronics, toys and others. China has made Brazil an obvious political and economic priority, and its status as a fellow BRIC nation gives it further clout. Chinese and Brazilian delegations routinely get together and Brazil has no fewer than 30 Chambers of Commerce dedicated to China.
