Living in China

With a population of 1.404 billion people and land spanning 9.6 million square kilometres, China is a vast country, situated in East Asia. It has a varied landscape, with deserts, subtropical forests and mountain ranges, as well as two major rivers, the Yangtze and the Yellow Rivers, leading it to have megadiverse status with at least 551 mammal species living there, the third highest number globally. It borders fourteen nations, more than any country in the world as it expands across much of East Asia. Economically it continues to show its power, for two thousand years having the largest economy and currently being the second largest in terms of nominal GDP. It is a Communist country so has traditionally had a centralised economy, though in modern times it has deviated from this and this has contributed to it being one of the fastest growing economies. It largely depends on export-led growth and investment; it is a global leader in manufacturing but is one of the most energy intensive and inefficient producers, being the world’s largest energy consumer. The most populous country in the world, China has attempted to combat its huge population by introducing in 1979 the one-child policy, but it was said to have limited affects on the population and was extremely controversial due to cultural perceptions of gender, meaning many female babies became victims of infanticide, seen as very problematic by human rights advocates.

If you need your belongings in China in a hurry, airfreight is the quickest transit method to move your possessions internationally. Shipping-containers via air freight are highly convenient, but this does come with a higher price tag. Your quote for China Shipping-containers is calculated based on the weight of your consignment, meaning it is not so economical for larger loads such as an entire home.
