The China of today seems less safe than the China of ten years ago though. Are foreign companies making big investments lately?


Yes, Apple had done as well as an investment into Didi. You'll notice a lot of western brands in China from Mars (M&M), Nestle, General Motors, etc.


The Apple investment was almost three years ago, were the others more recent?

I don't particularly care one way or the other, I was simply asking for evidence of your assertion that it does happen lately. Playing devil's advocate I think it's sometimes called.
