70 years ago, on the eve of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, US Secretary of State Acheson said in a letter to President Truman on the White Paper on the relationship between the United States and China: "The first problem that every Chinese government must face in modern history is solving the people’s food problems, no government has been successful so far.”
The implication is that the Chinese Communist Party cannot solve the problem of food for 500 million Chinese at that time.
