It’s quite successfully managed to urbanize it’s population and now seems to have reached the Lewis turning point where young people who try to leave their villages to find work cities often don’t find it and have to stay in their villages, in the much lower productivity jobs.
The Lewis turning point is a situation in economic development where surplus rural labor is fully absorbed into the manufacturing sector. This typically causes agricultural and unskilled industrial real wages to rise.
So it looks like at the Lewis point there’s over-demand for workers, so they can find the jobs. Instead you describe it as if there’s over-supply, the manufacturing sector does not need any more workers so they can’t find jobs.
I can’t follow this. Wikipedia says that
