==========

Xi Jinping introduced the 'China Dream' 11 years ago; since late 2022, the number of Chinese emigrating has increased significantly; private capital is also leaving China through various means; the trend reflects disillusionment with Xi's vision due to economic decline and political repression; the term '跑路' (to run away) has gained popularity; the COVID pandemic and U.S. tensions have exacerbated the situation; Lynette Ong, a professor at the University of Toronto, highlights these issues.
