Reports show that China 's migrant workers , the majority of the country 's economy , are feeling the impact of the country 's slowdown , as falling manufacturing orders have resulted in factory activity falling at its fastest pace in more than six years in August . In addition , China managed to borrow and spend its way out of the crisis , building huge property projects across the country , pushing workers from the factory floors into construction projects . But all I found were miles and miles of brand new, but empty buildings. However , even that prop of the Chinese economy is suffering , with tens of thousands of flats left uninhabited across the country .
