    They need the money to import food i've been told. Apparently they have started concreting over so many former rice paddies that there is an imminent food shortage on the horizion and with the recent increase in the rice price much of the population will slip below the breadline shortly.

      China is going to have big problems in the next few years, unemployment has went up 10 million since the summer.

      There will be a flashpoint soon which will bring massive unrest.
