It would seem that China has some internal bills (the environment too) that need to paid at the cost of unchecked export growth- at least such that they can proceed forward with a complementary internal market which would encourage a variety of diversified downstream benefits.

China's got a large internal market, but it depends on its growth, which depends on its trade position. As far as the environment goes, that's a product of becoming a developed nation. Their concern right now is to grow, and once you become developed, then you have the income to care about the environment.
