I really don't see the problem here.
In Denmark McKinsey consultants advise the government at a fairly high level. Most of the consultants are Danes and had they not worked for McKinsey they would work for another consultancy (or the government itself) doing the same government work.
Made in China 2025 is an industrial policy aiming for Chinese companies to move up the value chain. This was going to happen regardless of McKinsey.
On contrary the US congressmen are foolish for bullying McKinsey into not doing business in China as it will decrease the US's ability to understand what is going.
"A McKinsey-led think-tank advised China to deepen co-operation between business and the military and push foreign companies out of sensitive industries as part of a project for the central government in 2015. ..."
I hate paywalls
First, the think tank is the "Urban China Initiative" and here's the archive link of the FT article - https://archive.is/1xGV3
Secondly, McKinsey offices in each country (and even within the same country) are independent of each other, and only share the same branding.
McK's US practice is firewalled from McK's Indonesia practice, as the Partners for both are different.
In this case, McK China's managing partners (a number of whom were Canadian and American citizens but naturalized) worked with the Chinese government on this tender. And in reality, it was junior McK associates who did most of the work, and I guarantee you those associates were all Chinese nationals and Chinese educated.
India's "Make in India" and the India Century initiative from the same year was a collaboration between the Indian govt and BCG India for example (https://web-assets.bcg.com/img-src/Make-in-India-Nov-2014_tc...) and done independent of BCG US.
Edit: thanks for the downvotes. I'm not even a wumao and have been very critical of the Chinese govt on here.
First you got tech-millenarians posting on here, then wumaos and the associated China bears, and then SWEs who think they know best.
Screw this platform.
