Even if China slows down, it will still exist as it has for over 5000 years. Growth & decline are part & parcel of economies & countries.

The real estate industry or property market is never a core and essence of the economy, but the manufacturing industry is really!! Manufacturing is the most important core and essence of the economy and is most effective in maintaining the health of the economy!! Therefore, Please China's government, politicians, and manufacturers 🇨🇳 cheer up and make a steady effort for the endless improvement and development of China's manufacturing sector 🇨🇳 🙏 🙏 ❤️ 😍 🥰 ❤️ 💖 💗!!

The only thing holding back China is still allowing part of its economy to follow Capitalist directives. Where there's Capitalism there is greed, corruption and inequality. Like the realestate sector. Every capitalist is a potential traitor because it promotes greed and self interest. The West is being given CPR from the criminal or Black market sectors. If a system needs to work outside its own rules and guidelines to survive, it is obviously failing.

In coming 10 years young population growth will be the main issue for China. China should not underestimate this issue like Japan south Korea
