Too bad that actual planning seems to take a backseat to "my own swiss bank account in 10 years" planning. The same problem "islamic democracies" (or the "islamic republic") or dictatorships have. And then western (and Chinese) companies come in who promise personal kickbacks in trade for contracts. And soon the situation happens that companies who don't do this simply can't get any business at all.

China will get killed by it's own politicians much quicker than any western democracy. They're still growing, today it's easy for them because China is growing at 7% per year. It will get hard soon and things will change. Fast.
