Recently,a Chinese buyer spent an unprecedented US $200,000 on a racing pigeon at an auction in Belgium.Instead of their usual habit of buying high-end consumer goods abroad,China’s rich who account for 10 percent of the national population are joining,and even outdoing,the ranks of the world’s big spenders.However there are still many Chinese struggling along on a moderate or meager income,including migrant workers,laid-off workers,and farmers who have lost their lands to development.Their livelihoods are what the government is turning its full attention to now.
