The Chinese market will grow forever

Harold Chee and Chris West

Chapter Myth 2 in Myths about doing business in China, 2007, pp 11-28 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract China has been defying economic gravity for a number of years now, confounding the doomsters. This will continue. Labor costs will remain low: there is an almost endless supply of surplus labor out there in the countryside to ensure this. At the same time, a middle class is developing, which will: first, save; second, provide ever-increasing demand for more sophisticated goods; and third, provide ever-improving leadership in both civic and commercial sectors. The government will not back down from its free-market stance, because it knows this is the only way it can generate the ever-increasing wealth that will keep people content (and itself in power).
