Geography of China
Recently we came back from China, after this gorgeous experience I want to underline some Geographical aspects about China that everybody needs to know to run business-projects or whatever money related activity.
Geography is a science that includes different concepts as climate, elevation, vegetation, population, land use, industries, or state order. I focus my article in the most economic related variables:
- Population: They have a huge problem of migration from rural areas to cities.
- Land use: They (the gov) build ghost cities to order the territory.
- Climate: They have extreme conditions in the western Asia in which they are not able to run the agriculture business.
- Elevation: To build a good infrastructure of logistics for commodities and for people they have to employ a lot of resources and time.
- Language: They have two main languages Mandarin and Cantonese Chinese, but in the western China they have a lot of dialects and also they have independence and revolt problems in certain areas like Hong Kong due to the different past.
- Data: For instance they don’t control properly their own data because Citizens are enrol in different cities than they live. And due to the controlled economic model that they have, it’s too difficult to trust the government reports.
For these reasons, I recommend you to look China with a very specific view, focusing in certain areas and targets, because a niche of the niche of the niche market in China could be as a European country population.
Research a lot about these customers and then try to catch it if the Government allows you to enter in his market.
They are NOT 1.4 Billion People, always remember IT.
