China Plans Unified Survey to Gauge Wealth Gap, Daily Reports - Bloomberg - 0 views

  •  
    This article discusses China's income distribution gap. It also relates to the methods used and the dishonesty China has presented previously. Philosophically, there should be no income gap because of the basic concepts of communism, but this is not the case.

China Economy | Yuan Devaluation - 1 views

  •  
    This is a very interesting article about how Chinese economists are going to raise the value of the yuan. It seems that there are outreaching effects in the United States - the exports from China will raise in price and therefore Americans' disposable income will start to decrease.

China Denounces Demand for High Tariffs on Solar Panels - 2 views

  •  
    The main idea of this article is exactly what the title states. China says that the high tariffs on solar panels produced in China "could undermine global economy and harm international efforts to combat global warming". Here, we can see several problems: scarcity and sustainability - the protection towards Chinese solar panels may force countries to use non-renewable sources as energy instead of renewable sources of energy such as the solar system. The article also mentions China's retaliation towards the US, as China would "purchase less American factory equipment and raw materials for making solar panels".

China targeting poverty reduction by family planning - 2 views

  •  
    This article talks about China hoping to reduce poverty by implementing policies to steady birth rates (keeping growth rates under 0.8). This would most likely help China reducing the "growth" but I believe this would not make a significant difference considering China's total population.

Nature Will Constrain China's Growth - 0 views

  •  
    This column recounts the limits placed on China's growth by scarce natural resources, concluding "that the planet simply cannot sustain a population of China's size joining the west in its reckless consumption."
  •  
    In this article we can unfortunately see that there is a big problem about scarce resources in China. "only 1 per cent of air is fit to breathe", "...such is the scarcity of water." " the planet simply cannot sustain a population of China's size joining the west in its reckless consumption" but China has a right to live like western countries. Unfairly, all these problems came out because of China's population in the article. I was not know these things about China.

Trade Deficit Would Test Beijing - 0 views

  •  
    This article talks about the "rare" trade deficit that China may experience next year. This is due to weak demand in Europe and America for Chinese imports. It is ironic in the sense that we perceive China as an exporting 'power-house' and now it is experiencing a trade deficit. This would limit the growth for the Chinese economy.
