Global view of China grows more positive

Experts attribute rising favorability trend to governance achievements

China is viewed positively across much of the world, a recent study has said, with experts attributing it to the country's governance achievements.

China receives net positive ratings — measured as the percentage of positive views minus negative ones — across most regions surveyed, including the Americas, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and North Africa, and sub-Saharan Africa, according to the report, commissioned by a Europe-based nonprofit organization in partnership with Nira Data, published earlier in May.

Global country perceptions, part of the report, are based on responses from a sample of 46,600 people across 85 countries and regions, conducted between March 19 and April 21.
