we dunno how this pans out

2022 is primed for an exciting year at least

2022? This was supposed to be China’s century according to Chicoms here. It'd be both interesting and amazing how a few short years can change everything. The demographic challenge demonstrated with the record low birth rate seems worthy of mentioning. CCP are trying to do something about it, so in 20+ years we should see the fruits of that. (It's by no means a China only issue, but there are some uniquely CCP policies that exacerbated it.)

At bare minimum you can expect the economy of Communist China to keep slowing down. Per the urbanization rate in Communist China as of 2020 was 64%. Probably that increased in 2021. Not too far to go to reach 80% urbanization which probably an end point. Communist China is building new housing at a rate of 1.5% per year so it would have 10 year of construction left at that rate. Then 30% of its GDP disappears. But it is worse than that. Communist China has empty housing representing about 7% urbanization. Thus they may have only 5 more years of housing construction at the present rate. They are going to need a much bigger propaganda department. :s13:

if covid is any measure or yardstick of a nations performance

u can see vastly how superior they had been in turning around response and effects as compared to other nations proclaiming they are more modern though

just IMO though

Impressive. I think TS is now feeling high for some unknown reason.

Mind sharing how much percentage of GDP the PRC real estate constitutes compared to other countries?

Jin xia xuay, took them this long with 1.4billion heads to exceed economic output of continent with only 25% of the headcount…

the average chinese is still worse off on a gdp per capita basis than someone from Costa Rica or Trinidad and tobago

Somebody talk about China's GDP per capita is US$12000 but median income is only US$300. Just to raise awareness, this is the same with every economy in the world. The actual median or average income is always just half or less than the GDP per capita on paper. For example, Singapore GDP per capita is US$67,000 now, the median is also about half of that or less.

My prc colleagues and friends kept kpkb about the price of an apartment in China. And they were talking about the apartments in second tier cities being out of reach for them. A common saying is a married couple needs 4 wallets to purchase an apartment, which is weird because China is so large with plentiful land.

i didn’t do a thorough search, but their real estate constitutes 29% of the country’s entire gdp!
