China: 2nd world economic power

IMF data shows that in 2010 China will take the world number 2 position in world economy of Japan in 2009. However it is much less lower as compared to USA, the current No. 1 in world economy (see picture), and if we consider per capita income, China is the lowest among 3 super economic powers (in 2009 per capita income of USA is USD 42,240, Japan is USD37,800 while China is only USD 3,600).
