Education and HumanResources
• How should China become the world’s leading human
resources power?
– It is imperative that the state accelerate the popularization of
preschool education, aiming to raise enrollment in
kindergartens to over 75 percent by 2020
– It is essential to improve the quality of teachers
– Equality in education should be made the most important
policy goal
– The educational system must be reformed, and a premium
must be placed on institutional innovation
– Both international and domestic education resources should be
fully employed
– An investment system should be established in which the
government is the main investor and social organizations
provide supplementary support
Science, Technology, and Innovation
• Measurement of science & technology power
– The first capacity is the country’s innovative capacity in
science
– The second capacity is innovative capacity as regards
technology
– The third capacity is the country’s capacity to use new
technologies
– The fourth capacity is the capacity of a country to use
global information
– The fifth capacity is the capacity of a country to invest in
R&D, measured by the country’s R&D expenditures
(purchasing power parity, or PPP)
Science, technology and innovation
• Five major indicators are used to measure
science, technology and innovation power,
and China will be of course a superpower by
2030 (2011 estimation)

Two Stages of China’s Assets and Liabilities Expansion
Result: Growth Momentum Shifted from Manufacturing to Real Estate and Infrastructure
Manufacturing investment growth fell from 62.2% in 2003 to 4.2% in 2016.
Infrastructure investment growth remains at around 20%, while real estate investment rebounds due to
stimulus policy in 2016.
The Change in Growth Momentum Weakens Credit Stimulus’ Boost to GDP Growth
Manufacturing investment in the current period forms production capacity in the next period, which sustains
GDP growth and decreases credit intensity.
Real estate and infrastructure investments in the current period produce nothing in the next period, and credit
intensity has to rise continuously for stabilizing GDP growth.

Policy Tools to Maintain Financial Stability
In the Short Run, Many Policies are Introduced to Resolve Debt Problem
Municipal Bonds for Debt Swap: China imposes 3.2 trillion RMB municipal bonds for debt swap in 2015, and the
total size is rising to 5-6 trillion RMB both in 2016 and 2017.
Debt for Equity Swap: The debt for equity swap would allow commercial banks to swap the debt they hold in
underperforming companies for stock holdings.
Non-performing Assets Securitization: The non-performing assets securitization is launched since May, 2016 to
encourage private capital to participate in the NPL market.
In short run, the Probability of Debt Crisis is Very Low
Most of debt is domestically funded, and external debt exposure is relatively small
Large banks are State-owned and Government has capacity to inject liquidity

China has about 2.5 agricultural workers for every hectare of arable land. And many of
China’s construction sites and labour-intensive factories are staffed with rural migrants for
who the alternative is to survive on one acre per person.
Over the coming 20 years, China’s rural surplus labour will not be
exhausted.
The shape and speed of China’s and India’s integration into the
world economy will depend importantly on the transfer of labour
from mostly rural low-productivity areas to mostly urban high-
productivity sectors.
