    Planned economy is not a defining feature of communism, nor is it exclusive to it.

    governed by it’s native Population

    It’s governed by the CCP that violently suppresses all dissent.

    with a public policy centered on general social welfare.

    I’m sure the people living in huts they just bulldoze to build highways will agree.

    Communism would be a classless society free from rulers. I see neither condition fulfilled.

    An important defining feature is ownership of the means of production by the workers (not the authoritarian single party government that claims to speak for them and tolerates no dissent). There literally can be no billionaire company owner under communism.
