The emergence of China as an economic superpower

The Committee of 100 survey that I have mentioned here in the past asked the question of American opinion leaders -

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear "China?"

9.  S.A.R.S was mentioned by 1% (where's this dude been?)

8.  Military threat was mentioned by 2%. (and these guys are opinion leaders?!)

7.  The Great Wall was mentioned by 3% (they must have been on the moon when they answered)

6.  Long History - 3% (this is the three percent of the US population that is over 100 years old)

5.  Culture/food - 9% (they were eating at Panda express when they answered)

What did you think of first when you hear "China?"
