Quite xenophobic and shortsighted actually--this is part of the reason why China's stockmarket is so crappy and most of their companies prefer to borrow money for capital rather than raise it through attracting outside investment. It's a wonder that 60 billion dollars in FDI makes it into the country each year anyhow--although most of it, I understand, is simply domestic investment redirected through offshore tax havens like Singapore, Hong Kong, or even the Cayman Islands.
