Innovation

Chinese government wants to change manufacturing type of economic to innovation type of economic.

Singapore has wanted to do similar things as well. However, I heard it was not very successful. I'm not surprised, as Singaporean government is almost like an authoritarian government that regulars nearly every aspect of people's life with an education system using engineering like teaching for every subject. In addition, critical thinking is not encouraged.

China is familiar like Singapore, and maybe more severe in certain aspects. Chinese government even regulars what kinds of dramas televisions can broadcast. Being critical is strictly restricted. I don't know how successful China could be either. I speculate that China is and will still be very good at manufacturing and improving products. Total innovation will be very rare in China.
