WHY THERE ARE NO PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS IN CHINA

No Chinese citizen wakes up one morning saying: “I’m going to vote for my president.”

WHY?

Because the Chinese president is not chosen by the people. He is selected by members of the CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY.

But wait — it’s not a political party like you might imagine. It’s not a neighborhood political club anyone can join.

NO.

The Chinese Communist Party is an ELITE.

You don’t get in just because you want to.

You get in because you are SELECTED.

And who gets selected?

ELITES.

TRAINED individuals.

EDUCATED individuals.

POWERFUL people.

People who have already proven their ability to think STRATEGICALLY, ECONOMICALLY, and POLITICALLY.

Why this model?

Why not let the people choose, like in other countries?

Because China’s system is based on a BRUTAL but REALISTIC observation:

Someone who is poor, who doesn’t know if they’ll have food tonight, who doesn’t know if they’ll survive the night… cannot possibly have the clarity of mind needed to choose a country’s president.

Yes, it’s hard to hear.

But it’s the TRUTH.

Someone who can’t even understand their own life… can’t understand the life of a country.

Do you really think a poor person who knows nothing about geopolitics, economics, international relations, industrial strategies, national defense… can wisely choose who should govern a power like CHINA?

I don’t think so.

You can be emotional, shouting “democracy, democracy,” but China is PRAGMATIC.

It prefers to entrust the governance of its people to TRAINED MINDS, to people who have been SELECTED, SCREENED, TRAINED for this.

Because if you can’t govern your own life, how can you choose a leader for 1.4 billion people?

That’s why in China, it’s not the people who vote.

It’s the Chinese Communist Party that chooses.

And even to be part of that Party, you need a certain LEVEL, a TRACK RECORD, ACHIEVEMENTS.

Power is not earned through emotional ballots —

it is earned through COMPETENCE, RIGOR, DISCIPLINE, and PROOF.

In China, they don’t play with the future of the nation.

They don’t bet on the ignorant majority.

They give responsibility to those who have proven they can carry the weight of reality.

Something to think about.

HERE ARE 4 POWERFUL STRATEGIC LESSONS FROM THE CHINESE GOVERNANCE MODEL

⸻

1️⃣. COMPETENCE OUTWEIGHS POPULAR OPINION

LESSON: A nation or company grows when it is led by the most competent — not the loudest.

China doesn’t leave its destiny to chance or popular emotion.

It selects leaders based on merit, experience, performance, and discipline.

RESULT: In 40 years, it rose from a developing country to the 2nd largest economy in the world — and soon possibly the first.

While other countries elect leaders based on promises and slogans, China puts STRATEGISTS at the helm of its future.

⸻

2️⃣. ELITES ARE NOT A THREAT WHEN WELL MANAGED — THEY ARE A NECESSITY

LESSON: If you want elite results, you need elites in charge.

In China, being in the Communist Party is the pinnacle of meritocracy.

You don’t get there by populism. You get there by intelligence, rigor, loyalty, and results.

These are the people who make major decisions for the country.

This strategy helped China lift over 800 million people out of poverty in 30 years,

create giants like Huawei, Alibaba, Tencent,

and position itself as a global leader in technology, infrastructure, and AI.

⸻

3️⃣. STABILITY IS BETTER THAN DEMOCRATIC CHAOS

LESSON: Long-term construction requires avoiding impulsive course changes.

China doesn’t change direction every five years.

It plans 30, 50, even 100 years ahead.

Mega-projects like the Belt and Road Initiative, the development of megacities, or technological dominance are planned across generations.

Why? Because power is stable, centralized, and thoughtful.

Meanwhile, other nations spend their time making and undoing public policies after each election — leading to instability, waste, and stagnation.

⸻

4️⃣. GUIDED COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE IS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN THE ILLUSION OF FREEDOM

LESSON: A population guided by a clear vision moves faster than one drowning in disorder.

China made a bet: train its elites and entrust them with the task of guiding the masses.

RESULT:

Swift decisions, infrastructure built in weeks, a booming digital economy, and rising global influence.

Meanwhile, countries where “everyone gives their opinion” struggle to build a simple bridge or pass a strategic law.

China ACTS while others TALK!
