MICHIGAN: A small town in America’s Midwest has become a major battleground in the competition between the world’s two largest economies.
Gotion – a US-based subsidiary of a Chinese company – is behind the factory, which will span 186,000sqm and produce lithium battery components for EVs. Gotion, which reportedly received US$800 million in subsidies from Michigan, now owns some of the land on which the EV plant is set to be built. Meanwhile, Democratic nominee and Vice President Kamala Harris mentioned China once during her Democratic National Convention speech, saying: “I will make sure that we lead the world into the future on space and artificial intelligence. That America, not China, wins the competition for the 21st century.”His running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance, rallied on Brock’s farm recently and criticised Gotion’s EV plant project.
Supporting Gotion's plans has not come without consequences. Chapman was tossed out as the township’s supervisor for supporting the project, while Rose said aggression at local meetings made her fearful.
