its outstanding debt. of course, evergrande has more than $300 billion worth of liabilities, reportedly, and it has been trying to come up with this restructuring plan and the judge has been postponing the decision up until now. whether or not this process will be followed remains to be seen because i have been speaking to a pot of expert to say that despite the one country to system slogan there are some thorny jurisdiction system slogan there are some thornyjurisdiction issues. so, even though, if this report is concerned, the liquidator will be appointed by a hong kong court, whether or not beijing would then recognise those liquidators remains to be seen. having said that, the ruling is confirmed is really significant and it will send a shockwave through china s financial markets because for many decades the real estate sector has been a main driver of china s economic growth and also there have been many other developers which have been defaulting just like evergrande, a

liquidation of the company. it basically means its assets will be seized, sold off, in order to repay some of its outstanding debt. in terms of the company public day to day operation including building homes in mainland china, it will probably stay the same for now. this ruling doesn t send a through the chinese financial market because of course for many decades a real the real estate sector has been one of the major drivers for china s economy growth. whether or not this liquidation process will be followed remains to be seen because despite the one country, two systems slogan, many experts that i ve spoken to have said that there are some thornyjurisdiction issues some thornyjurisdiction issues so whether or not the liquidation there liquidator that will be appointed by hong kong court, whether or not that person will be recognised by mainland china remains to be seen. of course a lot of ordinary chinese citizens have been, have invested in evergrande, haven t had thei
