As a Chinese, I do think China is still developing country for several reasons as followed.1st, GDP doesn't mean everything. Due to globalization, prices are similar in all countries like oil, corn, iPhone, etc. So, I think disposable income may be more meaningful than GDP. Per capita disposable income in China in 2022 is 25974 yuan, about $3925, and is unevenly distributed. Itu2019s 36396 yuan, $5500, in urban and 13432 yuan, $2200, in rural. In the meanwhile, itu2019s 58988 yuan, about $8900, in Shanghai and 16011 yuan, about $2419, in Gansu Province. You may get the conclusion that some provinces and city in east of China do have reach the level of developed country and the provinces in northwest of China are still very poor. The numbers above is form National Bureau of Statistics of China.2nd, China's insurance system is not perfect. Because of the rapid economic development in the past forty years, ordinary people have not accumulated a lot of wealth.Relative to Europe and Japan, Chinau2019s social wealth accumulation is not enough. Most of the middle class in China may have a salary of $1500 per month, but they will return to poverty if they have some sever disease or lose their jobs. China's social insurance system still needs improvement.China is the 3rd largest country of the world and has the largest population. Per capita GDP does not represent the actual living standards all over China. The development of China depend on Chinese peopleu2019s hardworking and the stable international and domestic environment rather than robbing others via invasion and war. So please donu2019t worry about the rising of China which is drawn as the doomsday by western media and politicians.
