Isn't the Chinese solution just to convert these for-profit education companies to non-profit education companies? That only hurts these companies and their shareholders. Parents who want their children to be competitive will continue to enroll their children in these after-school classes; now that they are non-profit perhaps they will be cheaper and parents can afford more classes!

There, the biggest issue is that there is excessive competition to no good end. This policy is supposed to alleviate that and bring more room for fostering creativity
