The last comment could easily become true-if it is accurate, as stated in "the Economist" (?), that China now controls the world's economy-so many businesses now prefer to have their products made there.
Out of curiosity, do Chinese flight/duty time regulations exist? If so, are they complied with most of the time?
An article years ago in "Business Week (US)" magazine claimed that mainland China's airline pilots often worked up to about 120 hours per month, possibly more? Does a safety culture exist where the government is in control of everything?
Who has the detached/objective facts about the present situation?
