So the Chinese say.

I've a feeling that all it not as rosy with their economy as they'd have us believe.

There again, this is going against the prevailing wisdom.

But it does look like a bubble of monumental proportions.

We have two IT guys over from our Chinese office at the moment- both quite good (and cheap).

UK better watch out!

Well, the West has shifted dirty factories there for cheap labour and good econology, obviously that would make China the biggest polluter, but in reality 90% of this pollution is due to making stuff the West wants.

Maybe if the West never went for this cheap option goods will be more expensive and people will buy them sensibly, ie: good quality stuff that lasts.
