Real estate bubble - avoiding crash and housing affordability

https://rayliant.com/the-myth-of-the-chinese-real-estate-bubble/

 But for obvious reasons, reducing home prices is exceedingly unpopular with existing home-owners and lenders. A workable approach, which could take a decade to bear fruit, requires Beijing to work actively to contain property prices while inflation and economic growth raise household income. But a more promising and immediately impactful alternative is a Singapore-like government housing program, where low-cost rentals are built and operated by the state for lower income earners.

...

Beijing is rightly concerned with the social pain caused by this issue. However, there is also an economic problem to be addressed: although Chinese workers have worked and saved excessively, much of their capital has been mis-directed. A significant percentage of the country’s investments have been sunk into the real estate sector

Having spent the past several months in China, I see the pain that housing affordability has caused people across the country. I have also seen the economic potential that will be unlocked as this problem is solved. So I say, “Good luck, Beijing!” I hope you have the right solution, even if I don’t know for sure that you do. But I do feel confident you’re at least solving for the right problem.

Notes on Vietnam online Education

I feel that education in Vietnam really suck, at every aspects. This is not new but I want to address some detail problems and And trying to "help" or "solve" it. I am thinking about some J. Krishnamurti teaching on "The right kind of Education". And I fear that the biggest obstacle is something that I can not say about. You can not solve the problem if you are not free from it, first thing is clear the table.     We have to think the problem as a whole, not separately. This involve some keywords like "Fear and Freedom", "What is the right action?", "Choice", "Love and Pleasure", Violent, jealousy, ambition, greedy...    Technical problems are fairly simple. So the main issues is within psychological and other. “We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.” Einstein.  We were talking about problems and whether the brain can be free from problems itself so that it will solve proble...
