Sanya halts small apartments

Sanya, a southernmost city that sees lots of tourists, is planning to halt construction of apartments measuring less than 80 square meters in a move that will likely make it even harder to find affordable housing in the already expensive city. The coastal city in Hainan provine has been enjoying a boom in tourist numbers in recent years and that has boosted demand for villas and mansions, CCTV News reports.
