Obama is right to say that the West faces not only great challenges, but also great opportunities.&nbsp;In the last decade, the global economy was transformed by one billion Asian workers entering the ranks of industrial producers.&nbsp;In 2011, for the first time in two centuries, Europe and America face being out-produced, out-exported, and out-invested by China and the rest of the world.
奥巴马是对的：当前西方不仅面对着重大的挑战，同时也迎来了巨大的机遇。在过去十年中，全球经济将10亿亚洲劳动者转型为产业工人。随着2011年的来临，欧美地区在两个世界以来首次在生产，出口和投资三个方面同时被中国以及世界其他国家甩在了后面。
