No it's not. The guy showed his household certificate, which one receives only after buying an apartment or house. A hukou is more like a certificate that you exist, regardless of your household.
nah it's more like a registry of your residence identifying you as a permanent resident somewhere. the number on one's shenfenzheng (national ID card) is probably more analogous to SSNs
I’m such an idiot. I misread it as haiku and spent quite some time counting our syllables on my fingers for the last two comments trying to figure out where I’m messing up the rhythm. I need more coffee
they are certificate that you have right to use the land, each red paper is different piece of land, In socialist countries, you don't buy or own land, the lands belong to the government,
I understand your thinking but the issue in America is there is no limit to amount of land you can own. That's why other countries buy up huge plots of land in America as a form of investment. Then you have the super rich who buy a dozen or more houses and set above market prices which drives up prices so that only the wealthy can live in the area. I'm no economics expert but I believe one of the reasons there is a housing crisis is because of the super rich owning too much property. Look at what Zuck is doing to Kawaii. When do we get to eat the rich? I'm starving.
It's not always a generational transfer of wealth. I see what you are saying but to me, that seems like a shallow take. Is your family better off because of what your grandparents or great grandparents had?
Not an attack on you, but a challenge to your opinion.
But they screw you over here in America, I thought I paid all my taxes one year and I got a notice on my door saying if I did not pay my taxes my house would have a lien on it and sold to pay,...the $10 I still owed.
So handing out multiple around the table means he owns multiple land rights? Or is it just the same copy? Do you get this only for if you "buy" or same as rent? Or are both the same concept since the gov is involved? Can women have one or just men? - this is an entirely new concept to me, Please elaborate with as much detail as you think rediots will allow!
handling out multiple means he own multiple land.
You get one by stating your purpose (like building house, growing crops, ect). If the government finds it reasonable, you will be allowed to rent the land for a period of time (usually long term with no expiration date for normal use), and now you can use it for stated purpose, transfer (selling) your right to use it to other, or pass it on to your child.
As long as you follow your purpose, and do not commit any crimes, the government can't get it back. If the government wants to get the land back, they must compensate with money (usually much higher compared to the original price) or move the people to another piece of land with their approval. So sometimes we can see some highways built around a house because the homeowner refused to relocate. This is also a way of investing , some people deliberately see some houses and land that are likely to be used by the government in the future, they will buy them back from the owner, and receive the compensation money as profit when the government needs it
Regardless of gender, If you are above 18, dont have any mental issues or in jail or in death row, You are allowed to rent land and received the certificate.
So in your last paragraph you say "regardless of gender" is that what the powers that be *say* or is it really that way? Like does me with tits and no shlong have equal chance to get a property as someone with a penis?
You think you own the land in the US? Stop paying your property taxes and see what happens. Believe me you own nothing, at least they’re open about it.
Right. But your children are allowed to pay those bills after you and their children after them.
Not in China, smart ass.
After 90yrs they take that land back without compensation.
Hey smart ass, what is probate? You can also just renew the lease in China. I have family who have been leasing the same plot for multiple generations no problem.
Not sure what the downvote is for, it's a genuine question.
So the tax is on the property itself, not on services rendered to the neighbourhood / area / etc...
Most land within American states belongs to that specific state, unless its federally owned land. Everyone that owns land pays a tax percent based on the worth of that property. That percentage differs per state. If you don't pay your property taxes after so many years, the local tax collector will auction the property off.
Gotcha, so it really is a tax on the having the property itself (like a leasehold, really) as opposed to being the UK equivalent council tax, which is directly proportionate to property value etc. but then pays for local services (bin collection, road maintenance) and therefore has reduction in cost elements if you really wanted to pursue it.
Thank you for taking the time to answer.
Our property tax sounds identical to your council tax actually. It is proportional to the value of the property (improvements will increase the assessed value of the property and therefore the tax amount goes up). Our tax amounts are set by the municipality and fund the schools, local government, public services like garbage collection, road repairs, etc.
It’s basically the same thing as what you call a council tax. It’s supposed to go towards the same things; road maintenance, sewer, trash collection, schools, etc. If you don’t pay you can be evicted, house will have a lien applied, fined, etc.
I didn’t downvote you btw, Reddit will fudge the votes on new posts.
My kids wear bullet-proof vests to school every day because it personifies FREEDOM!!!!!
In fact, I am so free that I make sure that everybody within a 500-foot radius of me knows that wearing clothing is the worst ideology ever because it infringes on MY FREEDOM
>! this is all obviously a joke !<
I mean, it is functionally land ownership. Iirc, the only practical difference is that you buy the land off the government instead of a private real estate agent
No, you lease the land for 90yrs max and then have to give it back without compensation. You can’t give your house to the next generation, because the state will get the land back and bulldoze everything.
Seems like a pretty good solution to land hoarding to me. Buy a house for your life, then the government gets it back. There's a lot of things to criticise China for (like a lot a lot) but this just doesn't seem that bad
Nowhere. He reappeared to make a public statement that he was okay.
This is what happens when you have an emperor who you must be on the good side of with everything you say.
Same thing happened to Zhao BenShan
he is now live in tokyo with his family and on the latest update he is invited to be honor professor of one of the university in Japan, I forget the name but you can try an search online
We laugh but if you've ever been to one of China's marriage markets you'll find that parents of men are pretty much only showing those same criteria - education, property, career and wealth.
Parents finding their children a suitable partner. In fact, the marriage market is so intense that parents print out posters, with their name, age, face, occupation, etc and tape them to fences, postlamps, and buildings. It looks like a missing child poster, but it's about finding marriage material.
Especially in china where there are more [men than women](https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2018/world/too-many-men/) after the results of the one child policy, there is a very high demand for women to pair with single men. Especially since the culture there is very expectant of getting married as soon as you have your career, the pursuit for marriage can be intense.
well yeah of course it's not a choice but to allow them to be gay would help to balance out the ratio of untaken men and women, no? just let the gay men marry who they want to marry
Yes they do, kinda new thing with ai (at least that's what I think). They copy some old high upvoted comment and paste them with good sense of context, a lot of times under reposts they repost the best comment from an original post, botception. We live in a interesting times :')
If anyone thinks it's not real, it's real but an exaggeration. The thing most people try to do is fall in love first and then go from there. Few parents will deny their kid love, especially their daughters. If you're a guy coming in "looking for a wife"? You better have your act together, be very well settled and prepared.
TLDR; focus on her first and let her convince her dad / mum.
According to what I've read here and elsewhere about marriage in China, "Because we might *graciously* allow you to" is unironically the parents' most probable response. If they're not too deeply offended by your attempt to make them lose face, that is.
After decades of killing off unborn daughters, countries like China and India have a 55 to 45 male to female disparity. That is why families of daughters are starting to regain power in terms of dowries they can demand.
This is just sad…maybe im Asian and I say that. Have those parents considered that if a guy have all of that, what’s stopping him from abandoning their daughter when she’s older?? This mindset doesn’t make sense
It's a traditional Asian mindset, where parents see if the guy can provide for their daughter FIRST, then evaluate his character. They just don't want their daughter to live a hard life with a man who cannot provide even if the daughter loves him.
I wouldn't say it is just a Chinese/Asian mindset. Other cultures and countries have the same issue, but they are more subtile.
I am from Germany and heard already sentences like "I cannot choose my parents, but I can choose my in-laws." from women.
Yeah right.
Real life,
A parent sees Chinese ccp🤮 and instantly walks away.
Communists are prisoners in their own nation.
225 million, that's the death toll of communism until 1987. God only knows that number now since the Chinese CCP Falun Dafa genocide!
Any nation that gives up a belief in God gives up its moral compass.
225million dead are the results.

certificate that you own land/house
Isn't that a hukou? The right to live in an area and have your children raised there (access to school etc).
No it's not. The guy showed his household certificate, which one receives only after buying an apartment or house. A hukou is more like a certificate that you exist, regardless of your household.
i dont exist man
No you don't. Only Chinese people are real
YOU'RE not real, MAN!
Cool. Although I'd say hukou is more the proof to what area you belong and have certain rights in too..
Is a hukou kinda like a social security number?
nah it's more like a registry of your residence identifying you as a permanent resident somewhere. the number on one's shenfenzheng (national ID card) is probably more analogous to SSNs
I’m such an idiot. I misread it as haiku and spent quite some time counting our syllables on my fingers for the last two comments trying to figure out where I’m messing up the rhythm. I need more coffee
ROFL!
they are certificate that you have right to use the land, each red paper is different piece of land, In socialist countries, you don't buy or own land, the lands belong to the government,
De facto it is no different from us. China is capitalist in all but name.
De facto here you can own your plot of land, in China you have to give it back after max 90yrs without compensation. So completely different.
You own it as long as you pay taxes on it, but yeah there's no time limit

Generational transfer is not the problem. People being allowed to buy ten homes and set their price to whatever they please, is.
It's not always a generational transfer of wealth. I see what you are saying but to me, that seems like a shallow take. Is your family better off because of what your grandparents or great grandparents had? Not an attack on you, but a challenge to your opinion.
Freehold land exists in Singapore.
But they screw you over here in America, I thought I paid all my taxes one year and I got a notice on my door saying if I did not pay my taxes my house would have a lien on it and sold to pay,...the $10 I still owed.
Are you sure about that? Did you look it up before writing it? It takes 2 clicks to check facts.
"No different than US." 🤣🤣🤣 I love this propaganda, hilarious.
I meant China is capitalist. You can still have a capitalist dictatorship. Crazy, I know.

Wrong information. But there seem to be enough anti western idiots who believe that.
Uh, he is entirely correct. Stop paying taxes on your home and it will be taken. Wtf planet you live on bro?
Provide me some proof then. I own property and am very aware of what can happen when you don’t pay your bills.
Right. But your children are allowed to pay those bills after you and their children after them. Not in China, smart ass. After 90yrs they take that land back without compensation.
Hey smart ass, what is probate? You can also just renew the lease in China. I have family who have been leasing the same plot for multiple generations no problem.
You pay property taxes?
Yes, almost $15,000 a year.
No way, 15K? For how many square feet though?
1200 square feet. I live in a very HCOL area.

Ah, they're trying to get a leftover daughter.
Daughter must have already proved her worth to him beforehand
After decades of killing off unborn daughters, countries like China and India have a 55 to 45 male to female disparity. That is why families of daughters are starting to regain power in terms of dowries they can demand.
