I don't want to say Yes exactly but certain parts can be modified.
China is doing well economically isn't it ? I mean it has the largest increase in the number of the middle class since America in the 1960s.
In fact, I was reading in a newspaper today, how Chinese officials threw away bibles tourists planned on distributing to people. I'm obviously not proposing anything this drastic. lol. (just wanted to mention it)
China had one thing going for it . . . a very large population thus making it an attractive market for capitalists looking for cheap labour and a large market for their products. Merely taking what the Europeans have invented, mass producing it at cheaper costs doesnt make you an economic guru.
China has done well all the same.
