Executive Summary:
By any standard, China's economic execution throughout the most recent three
decades has been great. GDP development, on average, is 10 percent a year, and in
excess of 500 million individuals were lifted out of absolute poverty. China is
presently the planet's biggest exporter and maker, and its second biggest economy.
This report attempts to provide a systematic assessment of China Economy on the
basis of certain economic models, historical trends and global comparison. The
report highlights the most fundamental policies that China adopted to transform
itself into a rising super power and the biggest exporter of the world. The report
also evaluates China through the classical development theories and discusses the
rising inequalities and declining poverty in the chinas populace along with a
detailed discussion on migration, population structure, urbanization, child labour,
education & health issues, agriculture, rural development, imports and exports and
the role of women.

uncommonly high aptitudes and work propensities for its salary level. The central
planning of China's first decades after its 1949 Communist insurgency was by
most measures a disappointment. About 30 million individuals expired in a late1950s through starvation brought on by poor central planning decisions and
politics. Such debacles were just incompletely balance by the early and continuous
accentuation on fundamental health and education in China and afterward on
diminishments of fertility through China's one-child policy. At the same time these
essential first steps on education, health, and finally fertility helped set the stage
for development and destitution decrease when later joined together with business
sector incentives.
Mody, Ashoka & Wang, Fang-Yi (1997) of the World Bank analyzed the
explanations for streamlined development in China and finished up:
Although industry-specific featuresthe degree of specialization and competition
had some influence on growth, much of the action came from region specific
influences and regional spillovers. Regional influences included the open-door policies
and special economic zones that successfully attracted investments from overseas
Chinese to particular locations. Existing regional strengths, especially high-quality
human capital and infrastructure, also contributed to growth. Our results illuminate
the interplay between conditions conducive for growthfor example, the contribution
of foreign expertise is greatly enhanced by available human capital. China made
judicious use of the advantages of backwardness by targeting areas that were less
developed and less encumbered by the legacy of existing institutions, although it was
fortunate in this regard that the backward regions were in close proximity to Hong
Kong and Taiwan.
Thus the China case also explains the concept of complementarities.
In other transition and advancing nations, state-owned enterprises (SOEs) were
sold off to private investors equitably rapidly, although in China these stayed in
government hands for an augmented period. The administration tried to change
them inside, with restricted victory. But in the meantime, China has permitted and
empowered another, more effective sector to act like an adult around them. Lately,
China has privatized or shut a large portion of the more modest SOEs. Numerous
bigger SOEs press on to work in a generally wasteful way, and a few economists
suspect that their gathering obligation will finally posture huge budgetary dangers
to the economy.

In addition, Chinese authorities and researchers are additionally worried about
helplessness to the "Middle Income Trap" and are captivating discourses with Latin
American nations on this subject; Yiping and Tingsong (2010) focused on that what
"truly trapped numerous Latin America and Middle East center pay nations was
absence of improvement ability. They neglected to climb the mechanical step past
asset based exercises. This will likewise be the genuine test for China." There are a
few lopsided characteristics in China's economy that may expedite issues going
forward. China's exceptionally huge trade surplus has gone under expanding
feedback, as this was broadly contended to be one of the underlying explanations
for the worldwide financial crisis
Finally, for workers in parts of China where the rustic segment has completed well,
prior area changes have been around the reasons - with the revolution setting the
stage and the late-1970s changes giving more terrific motivators to distinctive
agriculturists. Remittances from migrant workers have energized an administration
area boom in some provincial zones, and costs gained by farmers have for the most
part climbed, especially close to urban zones.

Great economic targets have been achieved and Chinas 12th Five Year plan, aims to
lessen the intensity of issues like growing inequality etc. and improve the living
standards of the people and thus plans to keep its economic growth within
sustainable limits-7%.
China is considered to be an Upper Middle Income country with the per capita
income being around $6,000. It remained a Lowe Middle Income country until
2009. Currently the Human Development Report of UN shows that China lies at
101 out of 187 countries and its HDI rose at 2% annually since 1980 to 0.699 in
2012. This places china above regional average.

China appears to be in the drive to maturity stage. China began its economic
development process in the 1970s.In the 1970s, Chinas development process took
off, and its economy swelled rapidly. At present, in 2013, Chinas economy, while
still booming, has slowed down to some extent, and while poverty and lower
incomes (as compared to developed nations) still exist, China has overcome much
of its economic problems.
In China: the initial growth start owes itself to the influx of investment that the
government and to some extent the public made. Technological growth has also
played a part in economic growth, and Chinas labor force, already large, has
become more skilled and specialized.
In China, since the start of economic development, the rural sector has shrunk
from 80% of the population in the 1960s to 40% at present. This has been mainly
due to rural-to-urban migration, increasing productivity and labor force in the
urban sector. This rural-to-urban migration is still continuing and so is the
development of the rural sector.
This concept presents a general idea that it is the developed countries that,
whether intentionally or not, inhibit development in developing countries. Whether
or not this is true is a different case. However if this is true, it has certainly not
shown itself in the development of China. The historic lethargy of China before the
World War 2, when much of the nation was immersed in drugs has been often
blamed on the West. However since China has begun its growth process, little
evidence can be seen of any developing nations influence on its policies or any
negative impacts of the sort.

Inequality:

Chinas vast population growth of the past can be attributed to a major extent to
tradition and the ideas and actions of rulers and leaders. Of particular importance
here is Mao Zedong and the Communist rule that believed a larger population
would mean a more powerful nation.
Chinas population is approximated to be 4 million in 2100 BC. Since then it has
blossomed to 1344 million by the year 2012, according to the most recent census.
However, at present Chinas growth rate is only 0.47%, ranking 159 th in the world.

attempted a mixed bag of exercises, and early 1990s field research discovered
confirmation that firms in the same or identified commercial enterprises were
placing in close nearness to one another. Yet beginning in the mid-1990s, TVEs
quickly privatized, and a blend of rivalry, reactions to credit imperatives, a richness
of entrepreneurial ability, and steady local policies prompted the development of
restricted modern groups. Be that as it may like other Chinese establishments,
some may at last demonstrate "transitional.
The Zhili Township kids' garment cluster contemplated by Fleisher and associates
saw "a critical ascent in specialization and outsourcing around firms. "Median
speculation to begin a business more than multiplied, yet bank advances remain
unnecessary as numerous business visionaries produced sufficient investment
funds. Consequently, numerous firms entered, and after 2000, wages rose and
productivity fell. Accordingly, firms offering specifically to business sectors tried to
"signal their dedication to product quality"about half by building trademarks and
almost a fifth attaining International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
certificate. In the while, nature of subcontractors is "observed by their outsourcing
accomplices." Social capital is significant, Fleisher and partners finished up:
"Clustering inside built groups where long-time relationships around family and
neighbors predominate offers an institutional substitute for court implementation
of contractual relationships around borrowers and banks and between outsourcing
firms and their subcontractors." They likewise reported that "township government
has infringed wellbeing regulations according to major streamlined mishaps" and
helped "forestall a damaging 'race to the lowest part' as far as product quality and
employee security is concerned where markets are unsuccessful to do that.
From firm overviews in the Puyuan cashmere sweater area, Ruan and Zhang
discovered that state-claimed banks seldom offer credits to little and medium-size
ventures. Anyhow little firms acquire from relatives and companions and give and
accept credit from purchasers and dealers, so clusters lower "capital boundaries to
entry through the division of work, empowering people to pick the right kind of
specialization as per their capital portfolio," while a deeper division of work permits
"individuals with diverse abilities and endowments to uncover their own particular
positions." Similar decisions accompany from an investigation of the planet's
biggest footwear cluster in Wenzhou.
15 | P a g e
With a comprehensive analysis of 1995 and 2004 firm statistics, Long and Zhang
affirm that "China's fast industrialization is stamped by expanded clustering." Their
examination upholds the determination that
obligations through "two systems: (1) inside a cluster, finer division of work brings
down the capital restraints, and (2) closer nearness makes the procurement of
exchange credit around firms relatively easier. They uncover that clusters use
more "entrepreneurs and labour, and less capital, contrasted with non-clustered
huge manufacturing plants" and therefore take after comparative advantage. They
found that clusters could be convenient in nations confronting a "lack of capital
and a ineffective monetary framework." However, they alert, "clustering may be a
second-best answer for the financing issue when the local conditions don't allow
simple access to general financing." Thus clustering, such as TVEs, could be a

denying it geographic portability and access to state welfare. From the mid-1950s,
the legislature over and over acquainted measures with stem provincial outows,
reaching a state of perfection, in 1958, in the formal codication of an exhaustive
enlistment framework to control populace mobility. The regulation announced that
all internal migration be liable to regard by the pertinent nearby government.
Starting there, Chinese residents lost the flexibility of migration and movement
inside their own particular nation. Every individual is relegated a hukou
(enrollment status), classied as "provincial" or 'urban', in a specic managerial
unit. The hukou system served a focal instrument of the charge framework
intended for the big push industrialization, to avert workers from leaving from the
farmland. This industrialization method headed China to make, basically, two
altogether different social orders: from one viewpoint the urban class, whose parts
worked in the priority and ensured industrial area and who had entry to (at any
rate essential) social welfare and full citizenship; and then again the laborers, who
were fixed to the area to handle a horticultural surplus for industrialization and
who needed to battle for themselves. Hukou change, alluding to transform from the
rural to the urban class, was tightly regulated and allowed just under extremely
constrained conditions, typically when it was as per state industrialization
arranges. The hukou framework was not only a method of restricting provincial
urban populace and work portability, as it has been normally delineated,
additionally an arrangement of social control pointed at prohibiting the rural
populace from access to state-provided products, welfare, and privileges with the
goal that the rural populace fragment remains cheap and oppressed.
One's hukou classication remains unaltered regardless of where he/she moves,
unless he/she impacts a formal hukou transformation, which is very nearly
difficult to get for a ordinary rural migrant. As an aftereffect of this institutional
configuration, they are committed
to low-end processing plant and

classification. The dissent of local urban hukou to transient laborers, joined
together with their ample supply and absence of access to legitimate help, has
made a vast, effortlessly exploitable, yet exceedingly versatile, and exible
streamlined workforce for China's export economy. The internal migrant work
power is comparable to the low cost migrant labour in the traditional Lewis model
of the infinite supply of work. It has enormously helped China's development as the
planet's 'most efcient' i.e. the least cost maker. Figure 1 diagrams the
fundamental segments of China's double social order, with specific reference to
position in the social (and economic) hierarchy(pyramid), kind of hukou (urban or
provincial), and rural/urban area in two distinctive authentic periods Maos (pre1979) era and the present.
Alarmingly, their numbers have been swelling quickly: actually prohibiting those
employed in township or village endeavors near their home villages, the measure of
the rural migrant work force has stretched from 2030 million in the 1980s to near
160 million in 2011. The aggregate number of (urban) populace without local
hukou was significantly higher, arriving at 230 million in 2011. Once more, to put
the number in view, the aggregate number of global transients is assessed by the
United Nations to be 214 million in 2010, which is more modest than China's nonhukou populace in urban regions. The fast extension of China's basically
disappointed population, essentially in urban regions, has come to be its notable
feature in the last quarter.

expand was in the vicinity of 6 million in 20022011, contrasted with a yearly
average of 5 million in the past two decades. Furthermore, the gap, both in total
and relative terms, between the genuine urban populace and those without rural
hukou has broadened in the most recent 1015 years, inferring a noticeably
irritating pattern that more individuals in urban areas and towns succumb to the
burdened classification 'in the city however not of the city' (Chan, 2011). The quick
swelling of the non-hukou populace in the city corresponds with China's
ascendency to being Worlds Factory.
As a major aspect of the Great Migration, interprovincial migration has expanded
signicantly too since 1990, from just 10.7 million in 19901995 to 55.2 million in
20052010.9 These cross-area ows are very nearly completely village-to-city
movements. The aggregate interprovincial movement in those two decades
(dependent upon those four 5-year periods) totalled 136.3 million. This number
tallies more than once of the aforementioned same interprovincial migrants who
moved more than once in those four periods. In 2010, 85.8 million individuals
existed in a spot with a hukou enrolled in an alternate territory, contrasted with
just 42.4 million in 2000. The doubling of the out-of-province hukou populace
mirrors the same level of progress in the in general non-hukou populace in the
same period (from 121 to 221 million).

of a tectonic change. In addition, the model likewise looks more delicate than
outcasts have depicted. These issues have genuine implications for both China and
for the global economy.
Child Labour:
Poverty gives birth to issues that plague the very nature of a countrys prosperity.
Out of the many issues, child labor is of major concern. However, regardless of it
being a feature of the poor countries, its also visible in the economically active
giants like China. Over here children under age of 16 are not suppose to be
employed.
Although there are no statistics available on the extent of child labor in China due
to its governments policy of declaring it a state secret, its presence is advocated by
the number of reported incidents. With such policy we can only make estimates
such as the one based on school dropout
ratios. In 2005 MOE (Ministry of Education)
stated that every year about 300 million
dropouts enter the labor market. Children

Most of Chinas success depends on this kind of labor since many of them are
involved in the export industry. Based on the global concerns China has
implemented many policies for controlling it but very little has been done so far.
Education Distribution:
Education in China, though not as widespread and evenly distributed as in the
developed countries, is relatively higher and more even than in most developing
countries. Further, efforts are being made to spread more education to the rural
areas, women, and ethnic minorities who are usually more deprived of education.
Yet more efforts concentrate on better primary education, a more uniform system of
education and more quality education. It appears that in little time Chinas
education system will be at par with that of Western countries.

1949 to 1980: The Peoples Republic of China was formed in 1949. At that time all
arable land was under cultivation. During the 1950s, the government made a
considerable effort to distribute land more equitably to upgrade lives of poor
peasants. Agricultural science suffered from changes in policy and emphasis after
the 1950s. The Cultural Revolution disrupted agricultural science training and
research programs, but since the mid-1970s training and research programs have
been restored. Mao Zedong imposed some very strong policies to attempt to
increase yield to the maximum. Up until the 1980s, 63% of the national labor force
worked in agriculture.
The 1980s and onwards: In 1985, 4% of the farmland was cultivated by state
farms employing over 4.9 million people. The state made strenuous efforts in this
sector by controlling credit, lowering fertilizer prices and providing other sorts of
incentives to farmers.
The Present:
Agriculture employs over 300 million people in China. China produces rice, wheat,
potatoes, sorghum, peanuts, tea, millet, barley, cotton, oilseed, pork, and fish. It
produces food for 20% of the worlds population. In 2010 China became the largest
exporter in the world.
75% of the cultivable land in China is used for food crops. About one third of the
worlds fish is provided by China. China also has a large livestock population.
Due to China's status as a developing country and its severe shortage of arable
land, farming in China has always been very labor-intensive. Although some
mechanization of the process of rice production has occurred over the centuries,
the production of paddy rice continues to involve the intensive use of human labor.
The major challenges China aims to overcome are market inefficiencies, nonliberalized markets, food health and safety and increasing international trade.
Rural Development:
Although its share in GPD is falling, agriculture plays a very important role in
China especially for the rural poor. In this regard, the state has made efforts to
improve and upgrade the lives of those poor peasants. It has implemented a
household responsibility system, liberalized agricultural product markets and
23 | P a g e
prices and encouraged the development of operational systems and township
enterprises.
In 2006, maternity deaths in rural areas were twice as many as in urban areas.
Although women have equal rights to health facilities as men, factual data shows
different practices. As in all developing countries, women suffer the brunt of
poverty, education and health inequality, and other injustices.
Women play a vital role especially in the agricultural sector where they work all day
while the productivity of men is much lower and their working hours more relaxed.
Yet the share of women in the income does not reflect these facts. The poor
investment in women causes a sizable loss to GDP every year. Empowering and
improving lives of women can add a lot to rural growth and development, both
economic and social. Hence efforts are now being made to target that area.
Healthcare services are being set up with the aim that by 2015 all women will give
birth in hospitals. In the words of Chinas health minister, womens health today is
the countrys health tomorrow.
Policies in Action:
China is planning to build 270,000 km of rural highway. The plans for the near
future include boosting farmers income growth, increasing agricultural output and
improving the lives of farmers. A series of policies have been implemented to that
effect. Emphasis on health, education and culture is being increased as is the
budgetary expenditure on agriculture. Policies to guard farmers rights, regulate
taxes and improve market efficiency have been put in place.

Trade In China:
Until 1980s, Chinas exports and imports were carried out in a planned system.
When the Chinese economy started liberalizing its trade, the planned system was
replaced by trade policies like tariffs,
quotas, limiting trading rights etc. Soon
with the incentives provided the export
industry flourished.

One can easily observe from the statistics that china has outgrown itself in a
capacity that Malaysia or any other country would long for as by 2029 china would
become the largest economy of the world. With great emphasis by upon trade
liberalization and positive aspects of globalization china has outnumbered any
economy in its way for progress and prosperity. However Malaysian economy has
concentrated its efforts upon the more capital intensive products and agricultural
commodities account for only 12% of the GDP. It has achieved a greater technology
based economy with little emphasis upon the agricultural commodities. I.e. only
sufficed for the self use of the economy. However china emphasis upon the
agricultural side seems a little different. Despite of catering to the most populous
country of the world it has always recognized the benefits of self fulfilling economy
means of agricultural products. So much to the fact that they are exporters of the
agricultural products to more than 17 countries. China employees more than 300
million people in agriculture.
Chinas, 1 only about 15% of its total land area can be cultivated. China's arable

20% of the world's population. Of these approximately 1.4 million square

Malaysia's land area is composed of land dedicated to agriculture alone. There are
around 43,000 different agricultural machines and tractors. Malaysia contains
7,605,000 hectares of arable and permanent cropland. Malaysia produces 535,000
metric tons of bananas per year. Only about five percent of Malaysia's cropland is
actually irrigated shows the contrast between the two countries and their relative
emphasis upon agriculture.

In conclusion, we see that in most dimensions, China is at par with Malaysia and
Thailand. In the areas that it lags behind, it makes up for in some other areas.
However, the progress China has made in some areas such as population control is
astounding. Literacy rates are high, and government regulation in the economy is
decreasing. While China is still classified as a developing country (though in the
higher income group), it shows all signs of a country moving speedily towards
becoming a developing country. Some areas still need to be touched upon: the
elimination of absolute poverty, more development in the rural sector to match that
of the urban sector, and more gender parity. While Chinas excess population poses
some challenges to development, it can, on the other hand, be seen as productive
labor force contributing to a growing GDP. Given these growth rates, and Chinas
constructive policies, it can safely be predicted that China will soon find its way out
of poverty.
Conclusion:
In spite of the fact that China possesses an extraordinary specialty on the planet's
political economy- -its immeasurable masses and huge physical size alone check it
as an influential worldwide vicinity -it is still conceivable to take a gander at the
Chinese experience and draw some general lessons for other improving nations.
