The People’s Republic of China greeted its 70th anniversary on October 1, 2019.

On that occasion it can boast the following achievements: From being one of the poorest countries in the world in 1949, China is now one of the largest contributors to international growth.

It holds around 4 trillion dollars in foreign exchange reserves. It is not only the second largest economy in the world but also among the largest trading partners of the majority of countries in the world. The words ‘Made in China’ have become household terms.

The living standards of the Chinese people have been improving year by year.
