3) Yes, China will maintain the economic growth in the coming decades, especially
in 13th-5year plan period. China will continue to be driver of global growth in years
to come. There has some reason:
- China still has great investment opportunities: One of the prerequisites for
realizing our growth is to rely on domestic demand, which is investment on the
one hand and consumption on the other. Maintains its investment growth rate,
then will create jobs, create income to household, and household will contribute to
increase income, increase consumption growth, and then China will able maintain
high growth rate. Because China is a middle-income country. China can continue
to invest to upgrade industry. China government also can use investment to
leverage private sector investment. So, our good investment is the most important
indicator. That not only means that there can be investment in the industry, but
also in infrastructure
- As a developing country, even though China have done a lot of infrastructure in
the past few years, the infrastructure in the past generally connected one city to
another, that is, the high-speed railways, expressways, and airport. But inner-city
infrastructure is very poor. And so those they are areas for good investment. Then
issue of the environment. Environmental improvement requires investment, as
well as urbanization.
- Therefore, as a developing country, China are tapping the growth potential. When
external demand is relatively insufficient, China look at it from the perspective of
domestic demand. This is the biggest difference between China as a developing
country and other developed countries. When the economy of a developed country
is facing downward pressure, it is difficult for they to find investment
opportunities, because they industry has already taken the lead in the world. China
are different, and the industrial upgrading has great potential here. The
infrastructure in developed countries has been perfected, and the rate of return on
investment in old infrastructure is different from that of China without
infrastructure. The environment in developed countries is generally good and their
urbanization has been completed. Therefore, when the developed countries are
facing economic downturn, it is often difficult to find investment.
- China has very good resources, fiscal debt, government debt for central and local
combined is only 56% of GDP, it’s less of 100%.
- China government is relatively good position to continue to use fiscal stimulus,
and also monetary policy. Interest rate and reserve nation in China are extremely
high, so there is room for monetary policy.
Yifu Lin Professor believe that it is entirely possible for China to fully tap the 8%
growth potential this year and in the next five years or longer. Even when the external
conditions are relatively bad, China can maintain a growth rate of around 7%. Believe
that the actual result is likely to be around 7%. If this is the case, the Eighteenth
National Congress proposed that by 2020 China GDP will be doubled on the basis of
2010, and the per capita income of China urban and rural residents will also be
doubled on the basis of 2010.
