 My comment: The 2009
 does not mention Taiwan and mention China just once:
 
 "China shares many interests with the United States, but its increasing natural resource-focused diplomacy and military modernization are among the factors making it a complex global challenge.

 (b) "顺着滨海路乘出租车走了一遭。蔚蓝色的大海 * * * 路边是狭长的绿地、花坛和栈道。司机介绍说,栈道绵延近30公里,是去年和今年新建的,所需木板一部分从俄罗斯进口。一部分来自泰国。"
 
 My comment: Upon seeing "栈道," I first thought it was a suspension bridge. But it is impossible, being at 路边. So I wondered if 栈道 means boardwalk, and indeed it is.
 (i) Dalian boardwalk. See the fourth photo in the left column of

 Atlantic City, New Jersey
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_City,_New_Jersey
 ("The first boardwalk was built in 1870, along a portion of the beach to help hotel owners keep sand out of their lobbies. * * * The combined length of the Atlantic City and Ventnor boardwalks—the boardwalk now ends at the Ventnor/Margate border—is approximately 5.75 miles (9.25 kilometers), currently the world's longest boardwalk.")
 
 My comment: China is Not. 1 again, with Dalian beating Atlantic City in boardwalk length. Hands down.
