Should we be paying China more attention?

China's coal consumption continues to grow and, from October, China is set to overtake the US as the largest importer of oil. The Feed takes a look at this superpower economy.

Much of Australia's economic success over the past few years has been linked to China's consumption of our natural resources.

So just how big and healthy is China and its economy? Jeannette Franics crushed the numbers to find out what's happening in this rising power.

The Feed airs weeknights at 19:30 on SBS 2. You can also follow us on Twitter at @TheFeedSBS2, or 'LIKE' us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/SBS2Australia) to stay in the loop.
