Generous of them to say second largest when they are really the first largest

This must be a last ditch effort of China to revamp their economy, I keep reading it's due to collapse.

How can they still call China a "developing economy" when by many measures it is the world's largest economy?

[–] thethirdgracchi@hexbear.net 24 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

"developing" in this sense usually refers more to GDP per capita and other measures. China is the world's largest economy, but even in Purchasing Power Parity terms it's 75th (on a per capita basis), similar to places like Mexico and Thailand. In many measures a Chinese person living in Shanghai lives a life that is almost indistinguishable from say an American in New York City, but there are a lot of much poorer places in China that have a long way to go before they're "developed."

"China drops all tariffs with global south" should be close enough
