Factories are back in production. But, be careful of the picture in the news report. It was a file picture in 2013. Actually, more factories are using Robots.

EP holders form the support base for private home leasing. Typical EP holders rent 2-bedroom or 3-bedroom apartments.https://fb-s-b-a.akamaihd.net/h-ak-xlp1/v/t1.0-9/18199221_10154490624667014_675703210139128459_n.jpg?oh=cf6124c72bd2821123781a8f19c78602&oe=597BEBA0&__gda__=1501712034_6755f56367391d4d620a630f3d4218ab

Who say rental market is bad?

'Regular sized' apartments are still doing fine. So, choose your listings.
