Distracted by the 'grandness' of the collapse of China's property development market, many have missed the fact that China faces a crisis that could directly hit Asia's economy just as hard as a financial collapse - a nationwide power supply shock.
After ramping up its coal-based power production earlier in the year, it appears Beijing has suddenly grown a conscience over its emissions and the 'average joe' could be about to feel the pain of that decision.-

my comment: China is facing huge problems with the global economic downturn and having so many unemployed. They will shield their financial problems and blame it on whatever else they can. They don't want the world to know how bad a shape they're in with
a population of 1.4 billion.
The next squeeze against the public is fuel supplies and electricity. We already are seeing food production go down and food prices go up. Now we will see electric costs go higher and rolling black outs become common place across the nation. These are fabricated shortages as they purposely restrict fuel allowances for power plants and gas stations.
In the UK, the nation is nearly out of gas for their cars. They can't find enough truck drivers to deliver the fuel to the gas stations! Did they suddenly run out of Pakistanis? Have more professional drivers died from covid than they are telling the public? The UK government is bringing in another 4,000 foreign drivers in an emergency measure to deliver oil and gas. If they don't get there in time the military will have to deliver the gas to the stations. And their gas prices are double what they are here and going up everyday. These shutdowns and deaths are having real consequences all over the world - and this is just the beginning.
