  • China Business Environment & Assessment Report (2016)

    Located in East Asia, on the western shore of the Pacific Ocean, the People's Republic of China (PRC) has a land area of about 9.6 million square km, and is the third- largest country in the world after Russia and Canada. China has many onshore neighbors, with Russia and Mongolia to the north, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan and India to the west and southwest, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam to the south and southeast, and Korea to the east. Across the seas to the east and southeast are Japan, the Philippines, Malaysia and etc. The distance between China’s capital Beijing and Tokyo (Japan) and San Francisco (USA) to its east is 1,310 km and 5,800 km respectively; Paris(France) to its west, 5,090 km; Singapore to its south, 2,790 km. China is the most populous country in the world, with 1.35 billion people by the end of 2012 (the statistics cover 31 provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the central government, and the People's Liberation Army servicemen, but exclude Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions, Taiwan Province and overseas Chinese), In 2012, the population grew by 16.35 million with a birth rate of 12.10‰. The most densely populated region is the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta, Sichuan Basin and Huanghuai Plain. China implements the socialist market economy, whereby the government regulates the economy on the market basis. The supply of resources and the prices of most of the goods and services are market-based whereas a very small number of goods and services are priced by the government or the pricing is under the guidance of the government. Labor can flow freely; enterprises have full authority of their operation within the limits prescribed by law and are free from government intervention. Since initiating market reforms in 1978, China has shifted from a centrally planned to a market-oriented economy and experienced rapid economic and social development. GDP growth averaging about 10 percent a year in three decades has lifted more than 500 million people out of poverty. All Millennium Development Goals have been reached or are within reach. China recently became the second largest economy in the world and is increasingly playing an important and influential role in the global economy. Yet China remains a developing country (its per capita income is still a fraction of that in advanced countries) and its market reforms are incomplete. Official data show that about 98.99 million people still lived below the national poverty line of RMB 2,300 per year at the end of 2012. With the second largest number of poverty-stricken population in the world after India, poverty reduction remains a fundamental challenge.
