But I do not see effective opposition anywhere. The party has lost, hence the removal of term limits. There is no effective protest in Xinjiang or Tibet. HK will soon follow once pan-democrats can be extradited and executed. China has the advantage in the South China Sea in that it has the equivalent of several aircraft carriers in the islands it controls under the status quo. It is only the trade war that might go awry for Xi, and rare earths are a relatively credible threat.&lt;p&gt;I would however withdraw money, because loss on those fronts isn’t necessary to cause unhelpful instability.</text><parent_chain><item><author>taiwanboy</author><text>I think if you are a businessman&amp;#x2F;woman that have significant assets in China, you must be aware that the current Chinese government is fighting 4 wars right now:&lt;p&gt;1.) political conflict between xi jing Ping the new guards, and the old guards that control the state owned firms&lt;p&gt;2.) internal conflicts in xinjiang, Tibet, and Hong Kong&lt;p&gt;3.) near neighbor conflicts with Vietnam, Philippines, Taiwan, Indonesia, and Australia&lt;p&gt;4.) trade war with US and its allies (Japan, EU, Canada, Mexico, etc)&lt;p&gt;And the Chinese government doesn’t have the financial or the political assets to fight any of these wars, let alone all 4 at once.
