That dysfunctional Chinese economic policies would eventually bite really hard....

[teoengchin]

Germany worrying about the state of the Chinese economy is hilarious 😂

[Wiersq]

What a waste of worry every day!😊 In DW's world, isn't China falling every day?

[mihaicozma]

The Chinese grow with 5.2 % this year. Sluggish economy ? With a growth of. 4, 17 trillions dollars in value What about Germany ? Worry about that .China grow this year same as all Europe combine numbers of GDP growth. 😂😂😂😂😂 But not same value in numbers. 😂😂😂😂😂and you tell me china is doing bad ? 😂😂😂😂

[kongwee]

Nobody can explain better than Gordon Chang!

[TheKkpop]

It's kind of boring since DW started china collapse since 30 years ago.

[blakejackson]

"Moving the figures around so it will happen" Exactly...

[albertweskerk]

It's not just China but almost every country

[sarahjenkins]

The west was very concerned that China’s economy was too strong and is now concerned when it’s too weak. Meanwhile, western economies are going into recession without much concern.

[robijorum]

I don get it why does it seem like other economies are struggling while we have one that has 35 trillion debt ceiling not being questioned 🖕😂

[zhanglan]

This guy is really contradicting himself. On one occasion, he said Germany car makers sell a lot their cars in China. On the other hand, he said German opened it car market to China while China did not. I don't know why he took such a courage to lie in front of the viewers. China is not begging anyone to do business in this country. If you cannot make money, why don't you just go way?

[yhtan]

DW, why not get an analyst to talk about your European declining economy and how it's affecting your own citizens.

[mgreenester]

Foreign investors want the government to do a bailout. The Chinese government already said they have no intention to bailout the real estate market. They feel it is not part of the real economy and plan to let it deflate on its own.

[TLCTLC-cgcm]

Don't worry China... we Europeans love China... DW not German but 🇺🇲🤢

[zstudio]

Shameless Western media stop criticizing other countries solve your own problem

[herta]

DW should start doing investigative journalism, who really did blow up the Nord Stream pipe

[billywakwabi]

FDI from where? Europe is broke 😂😂😂. China is the one to export FDI now. Bunch of economic lies

[aleserban]

an attempt to distract from our problems at home
