True, China's influence and emerging financial power continue to make world leaders shy away from calling it like it is. There would be a much louder outcry from the international community if they were not becoming an economic superpower.

I also think it will be unlikely, it will probably be a long process. In another thread about the Tibetan protests, it was mentioned that China has changed a lot over the last 15 years for the better... hopefully they will start to move in the right direction, and China will ease up on their grip over the people. It just is terrible that Tibet, Taiwan and others are under the malevolent control of a totalitarian government.
