As far as China goes ... I think that the best approach to a country that has unlimited manpower resources is to find ways to use that to our advantage. Admittedly, patience in fostering governmental change isn't something that we're good at. Not only are we a young country, we're one whose economy is at least partly driven by the impulse purchase.
Despite governmental restrictions on information exchange, there's enough knowledge of what we have in terms of economic advantage, as well as that sometimes undefinable quality known as "freedom" that it becomes attractive to the common man. If 1.3+ Billion people want something, they'll get it.
