Then there is this contradictory report that many ccp graduates cannot find jobs

But how come the unemployment rate is about 5%?

If you read mainstream media, they only report about youth unemployment but they don't really mention the country's unemployment rate

The issue is not really no jobs but the graduates can't find the jobs they want. Most don't want to do the blue collar jobs anymore.

This is why China is investing so much on AI and robotics

Both are true right?
Not enough young people to support aging population and at the same time reduced job for fresh grad

If not enough young people, how can there be not enough jobs?

There are jobs but not the jobs youth want

It's like us too. No one want to do blue collar jobs

It takes years to replace a supply chain. Prc will likely to post enormous trade surplus in the next few years.

Can you even replace the supply chain? Where can take over China's role?

Tariff, etc could shift price competitiveness.
Given time and resources, almost everything is replaceable. it not necessary to replace prc by one country but could be by a few countries.

prc current situation is like japan in the 1990's. prc may have trade surplus but domestic consumption may be depressed for a few decades.

Time? China took decades to develop their supply chain until today

Resources? How much China and the world spent to develop supply chain in China

Do you think the world going to build another supply chain and spend billions developing it? Where?
