Why do you think that colonialism is the term to describe the kind of international relations the PRC is seeking? Why makes it a better term than say Ming sinocentrism or cold war ideological camps?
In part because it is readily understandable - it is the word we use for extractive, paternalistic hierarchies between states. I mean, I suppose we could call it a 'Greater East-Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere' but that might a touch on the nose.
I also prefer 'colonialism' because a term that traces back to the Ming or Qing ratifies the 'oldness' that the PRC wants to invest this with - which I think is unjustified.
Finally 'colonialism' has the advantage of de-exoticizing it and forcing us to think about how we would react to this agenda if it came from a more 'familiar' (to western folks) country. If this was France, Germany, Japan etc, we'd know to be appalled. PRC should not get a pass
