China realizes gold is one of the only buy-and-hold investments in the world right now. And they've got a lot of money to spend,nearly $2 Trillion. The Ministry of Land and Resources has completely rewritten the country's mining laws (known as the Minerals and Resources Law) to encourage local and foreign companies to explore for and produce more gold. The government has also recently created the Shanghai Gold Exchange, to allow anyone to trade gold, on the open market, without government interference.
