On the morning of 14 March,the Fourth Session of the Eleventh National People’s Congress held a press conference in the Great Hall of the People.At the invitation of Mr.Li Zhaoxing,spokesman of the NPC Session,Premier Wen Jiabao of the State Council met Chinese and foreign journalists and answered their questions.
Premier Wen Jiabao:We have set a lower GDP growth target for the next five years.I believe this shows the resolve and will of the government.It is also a major step the government is determined to take.This means that in the next five years and even for a much longer time to come,we will take the transformation of China’s economic development pattern as our priority task to refocus China’seconomic development on scientific and technological advances and higher educational level of the labor force and raise the quality and efficiency of China’s economic development.The speed of economic growth,employment and inflation are closely interconnected.A higher growth speed will bring more jobs but at the same time increase inflationary pressure.A lower growth speed means fewer jobs yet relatively lower inflationary pressure.But an economic recession may easily occur.We must strike a proper balance between these two and take an integrated approach to ensure a bright future for China’s economic development.We must seize this opportunity and make adjustments to China’s economic structure to resolve the long-standing problem in China’s economic development,i.e.lack of adequate balance,coordination and sustainability.And we must balance economic development with population,the environment and resources.I also want to point out that a 7% growth target is not a low target.You have noted that China’s economic aggregates have been expanding.That means we have an increasingly large base figure.Therefore it will not be easy for us to achieve 7% GDP growth with quality and efficiency.
With respect to jobs,I would like to say that we must pay close attention to economic restructuring.In this course,we should give priority to the development of small and medium-sized enterprises,in particular,high-tech enterprises,and the development of the service sector,including producer services.All these will help us create more jobs.The government will make every effort to cope with rising employment pressure in a slower economy.This is a great test to the government.But we have the determination to succeed
