The housing situation is notably better though. They’ve got some good ideas (also the high speed rail).

All (or a lot of) the apartments in cities are leased from the government for 99 years.

And so the prices are incredibly reasonable for an average living space. No greedy layers of middlemen trying to suck passive income out of you.

I’m sure there’s examples of where it’s bad, but from what I’ve seen, their housing situation is pretty enviable.
