They have applied for a higher number of patents in WIPO than any other country around the globe.

China has filled for 225 patents, which is immediately followed by the US for 91 patents and Australia for 13 patents.

A new social credit system is also started in the country. On the foundation of this scoring system, a citizen can be awarded or punished depending on the scores. Depending on the behaviour of a citizen the score will go up and down.
