Future Life of China........
This said, China is still a developing country. Although China is now the world's second largest economy, per capita GDP in China is merely one-ninth that of the United States and ranks around 100th in the world. There are large development and income gaps between urban and rural areas and across different regions. Over 100 million Chinese are still living below the poverty line set by the UN.

Thus, for a long period to come, we have to concentrate on addressing our own development challenges.
