Biased Western media keep bombarding propaganda claiming China is becoming less attractive for foreign investment. But the facts say otherwise. China is now one of the most attractive markets (lemmygrad.ml)

You are absolutely correct, picking stats and indices in alignment with our views isn't something communists are immune to. We're nevertheless decent at it.

This post is an indication of that. OP's proposition is that western media says Chinese markets aren't attractive to investment, and that the FDI index shows otherwise. This holds up, and here's the description of the index:

The FDI confidence index is calculated as a weighted average of the number of high, medium, and low responses to questions regarding the likelihood of making a direct investment in the market over the next three years. Values are calculated on a scale of 0 to 3, with 3 being the highest level of confidence in a market for Foreign Direct Investment, and 0 being the lowest level of confidence.
