Readings on G-20 summit 2016 pictures

The non-verbal signs  of the G-20 Summit 2016 and what it reveals

1st sign : the Choice of Hangzhou city

It's one of the oldest city in china and one of the rapidly developed industrial city too while the industrial development rising high with a growth rate of 10% while china growth rate is 7%  and still retain it's historical and cultural heritage so it represents  the history &industrial  progress  in the same time

2nd sign :

when the American ask to use one of the white house team to drive the stairway or an English speaking driver instead of the local Chinese ,the Chinese officials  refuse & told them they could use their own stairs and the pictures was spread in front pages of world media

and more the Chinese security officials roping off members of the white house press corps even the national security adviser Susan E. Rice   was hassled by security officials ( according to http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/09/05/world/asia/china-obama-group-of-20-summit-airport-arrival.html?smid=tw-nytimesworld&smtyp=cur&_r=0&referer=....


at the point that Chinese officials said in a raised voice to a white house official

<this our country .this is our Airport >

3rd sign:

the long read carpet that all leaders walked along to shake hands where Chinese president is standing to welcome world leaders





the longer the distance walked by guests to reach the Chinese president to shake hands the bigger the status of the president compared to the guests

from  these signals China send message to the world this year

- I am a big  economic influential  power and should be treated differently  than the past summit 2015

-It's time to play with our rules as well as yours

- No country and/or authorities above the Chinese regulations settled by Chinese officials

-Privileges for any delegates and /or guests depends on future corporation with China 's interest and the mutual benefits of both countries

This  is the image of the new China that she wants to project  as a major world player specially that China predicted to be the largest world wide economy at 2020

can this happens ? who knows the major players in the next decades

if we look at this picture of the summit in 2015 and compare it with that of 2016


we can see how countries politics and Allies change from one year to another depends on benefits & interest  of each country
