Can Asia carries its own weight when the World Economy slows ?
Asia may look large with Japan & China as heavy weights
But by GDP per capita, Output per person, it's meager
So if the West gets hits on the individual pocket,
Whose non-nessesity consumption is China's Per capita
I think China is going to get hit m centers paribus
If economic stimulant is not factored in....
