Beijing. When Xi Jinping took power in China for the third consecutive time, he had said that we will make China a high-level socialist market economy. He had talked about improving China’s basic economic structure and strengthening the public sector and also helping the non-government sector, but under Jinping’s leadership the situation seems to be telling a different story. Many cities of China, the world’s second largest economic superpower, are facing severe recession and cash crunch. Its effect is being seen on humans as well as animals.
