With its reform and door-opening policies, China achieved dramatic growth to become the 21st century's economic giant. With the success of Beijing Olympic Games, the country continues to work hard to become the "leading nation of the world." However, China is not without issues of its own and is pressed to address them. The Hu Jintao administration is reviewing the policy that aims exclusively at economic growth to shift toward achieving a more "sustainable growth," a plan which the rest of the world is watching over with great interest. This series takes an in-depth look at the internal affairs of a country attempting to make historic policy changes.
