As above, China has a long history & the democratic urge is not in their mindset. The bad years - Gang of 4, Cultural Revolution - are now just a distant memory & commerce is king. They also accept corruption as normal in day to day business. My ex-daughter-in-law said it was even often basic things - like bribing the doctor to see you faster etc.
Yes, they will have problems but their unstoppable drive will make them the dominant force in the world very soon. Let us hope that they learned the lessons from all of the others that have held that position. The west has had their several centuries but nothing lasts forever.
