"When the British emissary Lord Macartney arrived in Beijing in 1793, bringing with him the marvels of the industrial revolution, the Emperor Qian Long was not impressed. The great emperor told the English nobleman, 'There is nothing we lack nor do we need any of your country's manufactures.' The price China paid for this arrogance was 200 years of decline and decay, while Europe and America forged ahead." - Lee Kuan Yew
