So yeah I’ll be honest that I said they were still a 3rd world country in ways.
How’s about healthcare?
Infrastructure like roads, etc. reaching all corners of the country?
And the ability to get needed medications and equipment to the four corners or do they have good hospitals in pretty much every town now?
Thanks in advance.
I guess you haven’t been there since 1977 but I’m thinking maybe you took a long term interest in the country and kept up more than others.

The closest I've gotten to being back there is co-workers, neighbors and news reports.
The village I first worked in was Shuifu in Yunnan Province. It was a tiny, extremely poor village with a few mud buildings with thatched roofs. The Powers That Be decided to locate a fertilizer factory there and built a Guest House right on the Yangtze River for all the foreign workers. The plant manufactured synthetic ammonia and urea from natural gas. Two years ago production was shut down because the country had a winter shortage of natural gas for heating.
Today the place is a regular city!
