This causes its own problems in the internal market, in particular given that country's high level of wealth disparity. In addition, this inflation will put pressure on the central government -- the peg to the dollar becomes more expensive to maintain, assuming that China increases interest rates in order to address the inflation.

Nations need to find the right balance between these different outcomes in order to maintain employment, output and inflation at healthy, sustainable levels. Monetary and exchange rate policy, therefore, is central to finding this equilibrium point.
