About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges of maintaining stability after lifting millions out of poverty in China.

China lifted nearly 100 million people out of poverty, a feat praised worldwide. But the real test begins now. How do you keep poverty from coming back? The country built a digital net that spots disaster before it strikes, tracking medical bills, income drops, and housing risks. But early warnings alone aren’t enough. The deeper challenge is building lives that are stable and worth staying for. On the show: Fei Fei, Steve & Yushun
