Why is China less expensive to manufacture items, products?

Do they deliberately make things affordable, but I don鈥檛 know when you go as a tourist Igor live there, it鈥檚 expensive ? I think 馃

I love China , though

Cheap labor is the reason. Some of it borders on slave labor - since they're forced to live where they are and work where told.

It's harsh, but it's a reality.

@MOONAMONA86 That's right. I admit I try to avoid buying from China, even if it costs me more... but I 'm not doctrinaire about it. Trying to be balanced.
