Chinese govt' more skilful at macro-control
www.chinanews.cn 2006-06-22 17:04:36
Chinanews, Beijing, Jun. 22 �C China��s National Statistics Bureau
commissioner Qiu Xiaohua said on Tuesday that in recent years, Chinese
government has gradually become more and more skilful at controlling the
country��s macro-economy. This will help China to attain the two major
goals outlined in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan for social and economic
development, namely to maintain a stable economic operation with a 7.5%
GDP annual growth, and to raise energy resource utilization efficiency so
that the amount of energy consumption will be reduced by 20% for each GDP
growth unit.
He made the statement Tuesday at the Fourth Overseas Chinese Forum.
Qiu said that in terms of the opportunity for the macro-control, the
government is now able to choose a right time to exercise such control by
observing the economic situation, so that the country��s economy can
maintain fast and stable growth within certain range.
At different times, the government will take a different approach to
exercise the macro-control policy and adopt appropriate measures to
either ��heat up�� or ��cool down�� the economy whenever the economy gets
��depressed�� or ��too hot��. In regard to the macro-control ��rhythm��,
such control is gradual and stable. It focuses on pre-tuning and
fine-tuning of the policy. As to macro-control principle, the government
follows a flexible strategy. Instead using different methods to tackle
different problems. At certain time, the developenet of some industries
will be encouraged while that of some others will be kept in hand. As
regards the controlling means, the government has learned lessons from
previous experiences and uses economic, legal and, if necessary,
administrative means to control the situation.
He said that China��s accelerating urbanization process and the policy of
building a new countryside would add new impetus for the country��s
economic development and help the government to achieve the goals of the
Eleventh Five-Year Plan.
In 2005, urban population accounted for 43% of the total population in
China, 4 percentage points lower than the world��s average, 15 points
lower than intermediate-level income countries and 35 points lower than
high-income countries. This shows that huge space exists for China��s
urbanization process. In 2005, the color TV, refrigerator, and washing
machine ownership ratios for every one hundred families in rural areas
were only 62.3%, 22.2% and 42.1%, respectively, of the relative ratio
figures in cities, or equal to the city��s ratio figures in the 1990s.
This shows that Chinese farmers still have a large potential consumption
power.
Chinese government��s policy of building a new socialist countryside will
speed up the economic development in rural areas. It will increase
farmers�� income, and help turn the large potential consumption power
into real demand in the countryside. It will upgrade farmers��
consumption level, stimulate rural market, and in the end boost the
country��s whole economic development and make such development proceed
continuously and stably.
