中国目前取得了人类历史上史无前例的成就，那么，中国什么时候能成为世界第一强国？或者说，中国目前暂时还缺些什么？

　　中国设立防空区了，日本有反应了，美国有反应了，韩国也有反应了，也设立了。

　　可以从美国网友对防空识别区的评论看看中国还缺什么：

　　美国网友对韩国设立防空识别区的评论-01

　　Unfortunate for the South Koreans to do this.

　　Maybe it is time for China to bump her defense spending from 2% of GDP to 5-7% GDP. China will respond in one way, and that is to take seriously the need to continue to reform and professionalize her military into a high tech war machine. Except, like everything else she does, on a China scale.

　　很不幸韩国这么做了。

　　也许现在是时候让中国军费从GDP的2％提高到5-7％了。 中国将会用一种方式应对这种情况，那就是中国会更加坚定地继续改革和并保持军队专业化，从而使中国军队变成一个高科技的战争机器。与其他国家不同的是，中国会以“中国的规模”来做这件事。

　　This is a poke in the eye to China as she does not have the resources to back everyone down at once ..... YET (key word here, "yet").

　　Those aircraft carriers that are on the drawing board need to be upped in quantity and to shift the schedule to the left.

　　这么做就如同戳中了中国的眼睛，因为现在中国尚未有足够的资源来逼退所有国家.....（注意这里的关键字 “尚未” ） 。

　　中国将会建造更多的航母，而且中国会加快进度。

　　China is shifting her economy from low tech labor intensive manufacturing to high tech manufacturing. And many college graduates need work. Maybe it's time to give it to them via increased defense spending. As the US has found out, a great way to subsidize technology, is through massive defense spending. Maybe it's time for China to do the same thing (or rather, expand the effort).

　　中国经济正在从低技术劳动密集型制造业向高科技制造业转变。许多大学毕业生需要工作，所以也许是时候通过增加国防开支，给大学生提供工作。正如美国早就知道一样，大规模的国防开支是提高技术非常好的途径。也许现在就是中国搞大规模建设国防的时机，或者更确切地说，是加大投入国防建设的时机。

　　Many Chinese netizens are angry that their government isn't doing anything about it. Maybe those netizens can turn their anger into burning the midnight oil at their new careers in the defense industry.

　　因为中国没有大规模投入国防建设，许多中国网民感到愤怒。也许这些网友们可以把自己的满腔怒火变成挑灯夜战，投入中国的国防建设中。
