Survey on China's International Image: Russia Gives Highest Score, Japan Lowest
Mar 23, 2015 By eChinacities.com

A top Chinese marketing and brand consulting agency's foreign communication research center released a survey on March 19 on China's international image. In the survey results, Russians had the best image of China and gave the nation an average score of 7.6 on a 10 point scale. China was also seen positively by those in other BRIC member countries: Brazil, India and South Africa all gave China a score between 5.8 and 6.9 points. Those from Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States all gave China a score of about 5 points. Japanese citizens surveyed gave China an average score of 3.4.

The research center interviewed 4,500 respondents from 9 different countries. It was reported that over all, China's international image “is improving.” 46% of respondents agreed that “rapid economic development has led to higher living standards,” in China today. 

Wang Gangyi, vice president of China International Publishing Group said, “Most people in emerging countries see China as an important force for international stability and the maintenance of world peace. However, many in developed countries still believe that China poses a military threat.”

As expected, the score China received is inversely proprotional to how evolved the countries doing the scoring are. '....many in developed countries still believe that China poses a military threat.' They haven't realised China ALREADY has declared war on civilized, developed countries; mainland shitbombs are ALREADY detonating themselves worldwide. Countries that fell for chinese lies "we just want to learn from you", "we're just playing a catchup game", "we just wanna be friends with you" are ALREADY paying the price.
