Middle class may be growing in China but it's still nearly non-existant.
There are still massive income differentials.

Only 5% of the total population makes an income of at least $10000 a year (the minimum likely needed to afford a significant level of consumption such as a mortgaged apartment, a car, a computer, and the occasional night out)
