The actual GDP figures of China are much larger than the published figures. In the past two years, the exchange rate of the Chinese yuan against the US dollar has been depreciating, from 6.1 to 7.2, which is abnormal. In addition, there is a big data in China that is not included in GDP. The United States will convert all houses in the United States into rent and include it in US GDP every year, but China has not counted this. The number of houses in China is five times that of the United States. If all houses in China are converted into rent and included in GDP, China's GDP can instantly increase by trillions of dollars. As long as China appreciates the exchange rate to 6.1, its GDP converted into US dollars will also increase significantly. However, China has not done so. In order to achieve long-term development, China has given up the comparison of GDP

[@timlin3944]

Wasn’t it because as a planned economy, China’s housing supply had outpaced natural progression and are 5 times the demand. As a prop for GDP while it was not converted to rent, the construction and maintenance of these so-call “ghost towns” actually inflates the GDP number and therefore make China’s economy larger than it really is?

[@nezhanaohai]

我们不需要从外部购买任何工业品，汇率从6.1到7.2并不影响我们国内物价，并且国内因为竞争激烈，价格更便宜。所以7.2的汇率更有助于我们出口生意。可能进口能源和矿物会受影响，但我们是最大买家也有议价能力。所以我们并不在乎名义GDP什么时候超越美国，没有任何意义。

However, GDP per capita does not take into account wealth distribution in a country. If wealth is highly concentrated in the top few percent of the population, then the rest of the population may be suffering financially. This is clearly the case in the United States. In China, quality of life is generally pretty good for everybody, despite having a much lower GDP per capita. The Chinese enjoy good and affordable health care. China has no homelessness. China has excellent infrastructure. China has very low crime making the country extremely safe. Inflation is very low and the cost of living is also very low (except perhaps for real estate in large cities).

And then you look at parameters outside of GDP : Life expectancy in China has surpassed that in the U.S. (and this reflects everything from healthcare to nutrition to sanitation and living conditions) Protein intake in China per capita also exceeded that in the U.S. beginning in 2021. Moreover, in China, this consists of a higher proportion of plant protein, which is healthier. This is a reflection of both absolute nutritional intake as well as nutritional quality. One only needs to look at photos of open air markets and supermarkets in every town and city in China and compare them to those in the U.S. to realise that the abundance and choice of food in China also far surpasses what is available to US consumers. Aggregate household savings in China is approximately US$ 20 TRILLION. In the U.S., the figure is US$ 800 BILLION. Even taking into account that the Chinese population of four times that of the U.S. and scaling up, this comes to only US$3.2 trillion or about one sixth. Average living space per capita in the U.K. is 38 sq m. The figure for China is 42.5 sq m. which is comparable to that in France (43 sq m) and only just behind that in Germany (46 sq m) When you take into account that in the 1970’s, this figure for China was around 8.0 sq m, one concludes also that much of Chinese housing is also new. U.S. is the outlier at close to 100 sq m - this is the one parameter that is much higher in the U.S. presumably due to all the MacMansions. There is broad agreement that infrastructure in China far surpasses that in the U.S. from 5G connectivity to High Speed Rail to Subway systems and road networks. Literacy in the US has also fallen behind China. So looking at all the above, PER CAPITA living standards in China are hardly less than those in the U.S. even though GDP figures would imply that they are somewhere between one third and one quarter.

One of the best sources for China is Kevin of “Inside China Business” : if you are interested at all in China, I would look up his channel and start viewing all his videos : they are very short, succinct, and easy to watch - usually 10-12 minutes long only and chock full of charts and figures with sources, so it is basically stats rather than opinion, with only a conclusion in summary at the end. Unfortunately these KZbin commentaries do not appear to allow one to paste anything otherwise I would you send some charts eg. Protein intake per capita 2021 (China 124.61g/ day.

In China it is under$10,000 per person(of course China has 4 times the population of the U.S. The currency exchange rate doesn't change these numbers, when you adjust equally for each country. The U.S. is far wealthier in aggregate, as well as each individual annual income. Take our incomes to China(we will live like kings).

What you are describing is an artefact produced by exchange rates where the USD buys far more of every other currency than is justified by its purchasing power in the U.S. : this is a result of its being the the reserve currency of the world - The so called “Exorbitant privilege” enjoyed by the reserve currency. Prices in China are one fifth to one tenth those in the U.S. So remove the reserve currency status and you will find that the USD will plummet in value against every currency in the world, especially currencies of the “Global majority”. This is what happened in the second half of the 20th century to the British pound as it lost its world reserve currency status. THIS is why you can retire abroad and live like a king, because the USD is vastly over-valued. It is not real wealth (the productive capacity of a nation) but “wealth” generated by an over-valued currency. Hence the global drive towards gradual “de-dollarisation” that Trump has sworn to fight with “sanctions” - a loosing battle.

Technically valid gdp but about the same level of usability as an NFT.

China didn't make a big deal out of it, only when the Indian side was bragging about killing 45 Chinese soldiers/108 Chinese soldiers did they release some photos on foreign forums and make it clear that there were a lot more photos, but ultimately it wasn't publicized and not many people knew about it.

GDP is a good measure when comparing 1st World free-market economies (apples to apples), but it fails miserably when comparing Authoritarian Cultures/Extractive Governments, which heavily manipulate their currency, markets, and state-owned monopolies. Given this difference, China's GDP must be heavily devalued by at least 20% in this apples-to-crabapples comparison. In 1989 the city of Tokyo was valued as the same as all of the continental US. Japan (free-market democracy) has since spent 35 years in economic stagnation. The situation is now much worse for CCP gang China, which is an Authoritarian Culture, is hated worldwide, is 300% of its GDP in debt (a world record), most of which investment was wasted on Tofu Dreg crap with a limited life, its crappy Real Estate is overvalued by at least 5 fold (like Japan in 1989). And it is faced with the loss of all its world market share (foreign investors fled, sanctions and tariffs incoming). Which is the only reason it escaped the Mao Era's abject poverty, injustice, and death. After over 40 years of uplifting by foreign investors, no one can name a single world-class Chinese company, that is a leader in its field. There is no SpaceX, Amazon, Apple, Nvidia, etc. in China. Maybe you think TikTok is world-class rather than derivative and easily replaced. China produces nothing that cannot be made elsewhere with "less risk", higher quality, and frequently at less cost.

Although per capita income has risen from 2.5k to 10 k, it doesn't reach oecd standard.

You obviously haven’t been to China

China's current problem is that rural development far from urban areas is stagnant. In the future, it is necessary to concentrate a large number of rural population in more than 300 regional central cities across the country. Rural areas should be transformed into standard farms to solve rural development problems. The three northeastern provinces have already started to do so, and they can supply food for more than 400 million people.

In US 3 billionaires has more wealth than 50% of the US population. In China wealth is evenly distributed. So the measure of GDP per capita is misrepresented.

[@yeokokkiong2919]

Are you sure ???

Why use historical exchange rate? We don't live I the pass. Gotta use today's exchange rate

[@aungnaing2439]

Unprofessional analysis. there are so many factors to be considered such as dermographic features, public service, infrastructure etc. China is miles aways from becoming a developed country.

[@johnsmith100]

I recommend that you travel to China for two or three weeks take the high-speed trains from one or centre to another. It would be amazed with what’s going on in that country.

[@yuki-b1y]

啊？你说的这几个方面是中国的强项呀，你去旅游一下看看吧。😊我还以为我看反了呢。

[@williamking3529]

You should travel to China. The quality of China's infrastructure and public services is several times better than that of the United Kingdom or the United States. Also, take my loyal advice and don’t trust the Western media.
