After a long period of steady growth the Chinese economy has now begun to slow down (“Yuan Devaluation and Its Impact” by Biswajit Dhar, EPW, 5 September 2015). Chinese foreign trade in August 2015 decreased by 9.7%, a record drop of $93.9 billion. The main reason for this is the internal debt of China, which was 125% of GDP in 2008 and has touched 282% of GDP or $28 trillion now. For faster economic growth and development, the Chinese government sanctioned huge amounts of loans to the small and medium enterprises, but a significant share of this loans remained unused.
