“We are in a transition from a big state to a small state, and from a small society to a big society.”
The speaker?
A Republican presidential candidate in America?
David Cameron rallying Britain’s Tories?
Neither:
the speaker is supposedly China’s most highly regarded bureaucrat. Last year Ma Hong won the country’s national award for government innovation—a great coup for her department, which is trying to get more non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to take over parts of welfare, health and education services in the city of Shenzhen, just across the border from Hong Kong.
An excellent read . . .
