...And the largest IT hardware producer

Article Abstract:

China is expected to become the world's largest information technology (IT) producer within a decade, with as much as $15 to $20 billion having entered China since June 2000 for the construction of IT manufacturing facilities. The three main advantages that China holds in the IT sector are a large domestic market with expanding demand for consumer electronics and communication devices, access to water supplies and local labor, and China's localization policies that encourage investment by offering lower taxes.

Focus on China's rural growth engine

Article Abstract:

China's rural sector is an essential factor that has been left out by policy makers in their efforts to revitalize economic growth in the country. Since the rural sector comprises 70% of China's population, it has a strong potential for increasing consumer consumption and employment. Thus, China should focus on increasing rural income and improving the quality of life in rural areas to keep rural folks from migrating into urban areas.
