To the world, China development is an opportunity rather than a threat, Chinese value systems went through many great leaps forward from confunicianism to Marxism, from imperialism to republicanism, from feudalism to socialism, from collectivism to individualism. The Chinese political and economic scenery has experienced frequent shifts from crisis and failure to very rapid growth and achievement as well as from an order and hierarchy -based society to mass mobilization movements and to mass quest of wealth.
China’s market reform has turned it into the fastest growing economy in the world for three decades. China’s policies in finance, currency, trade, military, security, environment issues, resource management, food security, raw materials and product prices are increasingly seen as connecting the economics of millions of people outside China’s boundary because its shifts in supply and demands cause changes in prices hence lending to adjustment in other countries. China has the largest foreign currency reserve in the world and its financial policies and economic performances are bearing world wide implications.The first three decades of 21st century are almost certain to bring with them the completion of China’s rise on to the global economic, political and geo -political stage. China’s integration into global economy has brought one-fifth of the global population into the world trading system, which has increased global market potential and integration to unprecedented levels. To assist with bilateral and multi-lateral co-operation, there is a pressing need for re-fashioning the institutions that govern the international political and economic system. This is because maintaining relatively open and fair, multilateral political, trading and financial systems, is the only successful way in which the behavior of growing powers can be constrained by a rules- based system, while those of incumbent powers become more helpful and co-operative. In a world in which China is increasingly expected to play a leadership role, the multilateral framework will provide an important institutional basis from which the expansion of international trade can continue to be a positive sum rather then a Zero-sum game, and globally common goals such as macro-economic stability, financial integration, poverty reduction, climate change and regional and international security can be achieved with success. The booming rise of China will depend on how will these goals are managed.

Urban population increases in China, which has the world’s highest population, are linked to the growth of China’s large and fast growing economy. A two decade of economic boom has spurred rapid urbanization, powering a vicious circle of rural to urban migration and urbanization throughout the country.

A market friendly urbanization policy framework along with government resources to deal with potential positive and negative externalities has accelerated the urbanization process in China successfully.
