China is Buying Up the World – Big Time! Take a Look (+2K Views)

 China is buying up the world – big time! Take a look. It’s all shown here in one map.ch-lgflag

So writes Tyler Falk (smartplanet.com) in edited excerpts from his original article* entitled China’s massive foreign investment, in one map.

Falk’s article contains the following:

Living in the United States, the scale of foreign investment by Chinese companies isn’t so obvious. Much of the $57.8 billion of Chinese investment in the U.S. since 2005 has been in the finance sector. There’s also a fascinating interactive map with detailed information on Chinese investment for every country where it has investments over $100 million.

  1. If I was in charge of Chinese overseas investments, I would be doing the same thing, especially now that most countries currencies are at record lows…

    Many talk about the massive US debt, but what is not mentioned is who now actually owns that debt and will be calling the shots in the future, because that debt will take a very long time to be paid off (if ever). The grandchildren of all those now living in the USA will have a completely different “relationship” with China than we do today, because China will control so much of what is happening in the USA in the future.
