I first studied the Chinese economy in the late 1950s. At this time, it is possible to read every book and article in English that seriously addresses the issues of the Chinese economy in a period of two or three weeks. If the enrollment could be doubled, China's higher education market would be surprisingly large. The forum provides the Asian countries with their own specialized organization for the discussion of social and economic development in the region. In the past, owning a private car was just a dream for most Chinese people because prices could be 10 times more than the annual income of average wage-earners.
Religious beliefs are under the protection of laws and regulations in China.
But Falun Gong is in no way a religion. It is neither a traditional religion nor a newly emerged one, but a heresy. Falun Gong has merely plagiarized some religious terms to deceive and string along the common people. It shares no common ground with any religious belief.
