Quote:
"In the last few years, cities’ efforts have helped government
infrastructure and real estate spending surpass foreign trade as the biggest
contributor to China’s growth.
"As municipal projects play out across China, spending on so-called fixed-
asset investment — a crucial measure of building that is heavily weighted
toward government and real estate projects — is now equal to nearly 70
percent of the nation’s gross domestic product. It is a ratio that no other
large nation has approached in modern times. Even Japan, at the peak of its
building boom in the 1980s, reached only about 35 percent, and the figure
has hovered around 20 percent for decades in the United States. * * * it
could also signal a dangerous dependence on government infrastructure
spending.
"Adding to the risk, the collateral for many [municipal] loans is local land
valued at lofty prices that could collapse if China’s real estate bubble
burst.
