Worth noting the phrasing in Nicolas' comment - he doesn't want the Chinese to be dominant. He could have said China, or the PRC, but it's almost like he's classifying them less as a state and more as this amorphous mass.
The reason was always racism. Talks about human rights or authoritarianism or whatever were just for local consumption.
