Part Two

The nation's youth transforming the face of China

The nation's youth have been instrumental in changing the face of China. The coutnry has been on a course of enormously rapid economic development over recent years, with skyscrapers shooting up in its larger cities and rice fields given over to factories in the countryside. This second programme in a series of four looks at how young people鈥檚 desire for houses, cars and other modern-day rewards are fuelling these changes, and helping to turn their farming nation into a super power. Presented by Carrie Gracie.
