A "predominantly state-owned and controlled economy" - again, Marv repeats a bald assertion that was refuted previously. The economy is predominantly private – by percent of capital, output, employment, etc. As for control, the devices of control – macro fiscal tools, monetary tools, regulations, targeted subsidies, etc. – are the same used in Japan, France, and other capitalist countries, differing in degree not kind. Nor does a unified state wield them. Different capital interests both inside and outside the state contend to direct them; the endless cases of massive corruption are one sign of the contention.
