- Notes:
- Argues that China has gained influence in multilateral institutions, prompting them toward greater acceptance of public spending in developing countries and that recent developments in Cuba show that China is actively encouraging the Western hemisphere's only communist country to liberalize its economy. China sits at the crossroads of these local and global developments, prompting Cuba toward rapprochement with international norms even as it works to reform them.

- Notes:
- With the intensification of economic relations between the People's Republic of China and the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean, Beijing's role as a development donor has expanded in the region. The transparency of the Chinese donor services are limited since the transitions between development aid, investment and trade credits and direct investments are flowing. Focal points of Chinese engagement in Latin America and the Caribbean are upgrading the infrastructure projects in the extractive and energy sectors, education and training.

- Notes:
- Why are Cubans and Chinese more at risk in their respective countries than Haitians from Haiti? When, last have you read about a revolution in Cuba where so many people lost their lives on a daily basis? This goes ditto for China. Apart from the conflict which took place in Tiamminen Square, a couple of years ago, there's been no other outward display of political persecution. In Cuba, there's always been a movement on from those in exile to recapture Cuba from Castro. For this reason anyone coming from Cuba has been welcomed in the U.S. with opened arms.
