China is undergoing remarkable and rapid change. Many of the older people have lived through times of incredible hardship and famine on a scale that is often not fully appreciated in the west. Now economic prosperity is spreading, but there remain big differences between rural areas and the big cities, and between the Eastern seaboard and deep inland. |

This is accelerating with the new prosperity, foreign trade relations and rapidly rising standards of education in major centres. |
