Wow so it was not what we were led to believe that China was a more capitalist society than even USIn 1988, China and India had the same economic scale, but China's average life expectancy was 69 years and India's was 58 years. And the mortality rate of children under the age of 5 in China is 6.1%, and that in India is 12.8%. And the literacy rate is 89% in China and 49% in India. The gap is caused by the different welfare between the two countries.
1, 9 years of free education. China's compulsory education began in 1951 when China was carrying out two wars and was fighting the Korean war with the USA, and helping Vietnam with France carry out the first Indochina war.
Japan's compulsory education began in 1947, when Japan had just ended World War II and was still in ruins. Compulsory education in South Korea and North Korea began in 1953, when the two countries had just ended the Korean War and were in ruins. Therefore, we believe that no government in the world has any excuse to refuse to give its people the right to education, which is a real human right.
The human right to education is only inferior to the right to life, and the right to education is the second priority human right.
2, The government on providing for the disabled, orphans and the elderly without children (women over 55 and men over 60).
By the way, according to Chinese standards, those with IQ lower than 85 are mentally handicapped and can receive government support every month. Therefore, it is difficult for India to implement our standards…LOL
3, The government subsidizes transportation, food, residential electricity and water, fuel and other livelihood projects. This is a train ticket for 2017. The train ticket from Taishan city to Shanggao city. The distance between them is about 100 kilometers, which is equivalent to half the distance from Dhaka to Chittagong. The ticket price is equivalent to 13 Bangladesh Taka(1 CNY). But there is no subsidy for high-speed rail tickets and air tickets. China has always refused to privatize enterprises such as railway hospitals in order to enable the people to enjoy these resources at a low price.

4, Chinese farmers don't have any taxes, and the government will give them subsidies. China's agriculture is very weak and their production cost is very high. In order to protect China's food security, we must prevent farmers from going bankrupt, because the West has been deliberately pushing down food prices. The Chinese government buys farmers' grain at a price higher than the market, subsidizes the transportation and sales of agricultural products, and gives subsidies to farmers every year (South Korea and Japan also subsidize farmers because their agricultural status is the same as that in China. Because China hardly exports agricultural products, it will not be prosecuted for dumping because of subsidies. Of course, no country has sued the Chinese government for agricultural subsidies in China). By the way, there is no private land in China, and every farmer owns the same amount of land.
By the way, China was founded in 1949, but the CCP had begun land reform in 1947, when they were still fighting a civil war.
5, In 1964, the government provided free sports and cultural facilities to citizens on a large scale, which was the first step in the strength of Chinese sports. At that time, we had just spent three years of famine (1959-1961). Incidentally, the reason for the three-year famine is that the government is too eager to repair infrastructure and industrial foundation. For example, there are 15 large reservoirs in Zhuzhou City, of which 12 were built in 1959, and there are 3 large state-owned enterprises(the 601 factory, the 331 factory, the 430 factory) in Zhuzhou, all of which were established in 1959. The government spent three years doing 30 years of work, which led to famine.
6, The government subsidizes pregnant women and prohibits the dismissal of pregnant women, reduces taxes for enterprises employing disabled people, arranges jobs for veterans, builds cheap rental houses, gives extra points to ethnic minorities and poor areas in the college entrance examination (universities must have a certain number of ethnic minorities and students in poor areas), and so on.
China had Social programs even during poverty
I feel India is a such a dominant power in our region that we feel full blown capitalism is the only way forward, Indian model is the only.way for SA to prosper
Maybe just maybe there's a middle way to this growth
You don't interfere in business, you train your workforce for em, give them incentives
But at the same time have some sort of programs where your people are not living like slaves - you don't have to become a welfare state per se but have some sort of middle ground
