The 21st Century would belong to Asia — and in particular, China

"The 19th century may have belonged to England and the 20 century to the United States, but the 21st century belongs to China, says American investor Jim Rogers.

Rogers, the billionaire co-founder of the privately owned hedge fund Quantum, made the comments on Nov. 16 at an economic forum in Nanjing, the capital of east China's Jiangsu province, according to a report from the state-owned China News Service.

During his speech, Rogers said he has strong confidence in China's future development based on his personal experiences over the years. The 71-year-old said he has toured the world twice, the first time in 1990 when he visited more than 50 countries in nearly two years, and again in 1999 when he visited 116 countries over three years. He said he was certain that the 21st century would belong to Asia — and in particular, China — the first time he visited Nanjing in 1984, when China was undergoing reforms and opening up."
