This article selects a fast growing economy, China, under Deng Xiao‐ping's economic reforms, as a case example for exploring the use of the median income‐linked international poverty line in measuring third world poverty. Those third world countries which have a fast growing economy have the prospect of increased income inequality. Henceforth, the widening income inequality justifies a comparable poverty measurement which takes into account the relation between economic affluence and income distribution
