China's economic growth exceeds expectations
Our newspaper's Berlin correspondent Xie Fei
German mainstream media reported on the economic data released by China in the first half of the year.
Deutsche News Agency stated in the report that China has effectively controlled the epidemic and achieved rapid economic recovery.
The article cited analysts who pointed out that China's economy has returned to the medium and long-term growth track before the epidemic.
The German News Agency report also quoted forecast data from the World Bank that China's economy is expected to achieve 8.5% growth this year.
The report pointed out that the Chinese government should be relatively cautious about the forecast that China's economic growth rate is expected to exceed 6% this year.
Deutsche News Agency believes that in addition to GDP growth, other economic indicators published together also show that China's various economic activities are developing steadily.
The growth of industrial production and retail sales exceeded previous expectations.
The report of the German Süddeutsche Zeitung was titled "China's Economy Resume the Level of Growth Before the Epidemic".
The article pointed out that from the sharp decline in the first quarter of last year to the record rebound in the first quarter of this year, the trend of China's economy since the epidemic is unprecedented for experts who have studied China's economic issues for a long time.
The article also pointed out that in June this year, China's exports increased by 32.2% year-on-year, and imports increased by 36.7% year-on-year.
The sharp increase in foreign trade has benefited German companies a lot.
In the past six months, many German companies have been very pleased with their achievements in China.
The report quoted a recent survey conducted by the EU-China Chamber of Commerce and pointed out that China has overcome the epidemic more quickly than other parts of the world. The economy has begun to recover since last year, and a large number of European companies in China have benefited from it.

Our correspondent in Pretoria, Tian Shida
The National Bureau of Statistics of China announced the semi-annual report on China's economy for the first half of 2021 on July 15. African experts and relevant figures paid close attention to this.
They positively commented on China's economic development achievements under the challenge of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, and looked forward to seizing the opportunities of China's economic development and strengthening mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Africa.
South African veteran diplomat Groebler told the Economic Daily reporter that China's economic growth has provided a strong impetus for the recovery of the global economy.
As the most important consumer market in the world, China is increasing international economic and trade exchanges and speeding up the construction of a new "dual cycle" development pattern, which will provide exciting new opportunities for Africa and the vast number of developing countries.
He mentioned that the China-South Africa Investment and Trade Promotion Conference was held in Zhejiang Province last week. It is believed that China's investment will boost South Africa's manufacturing and infrastructure construction and make substantial contributions to improving the lives of the two peoples.
Melaku, director of the International Relations and Foreign Affairs Department of the Ethiopian Institute of Strategic Studies, published an article in the Ethiopian Herald that the steady growth of the Chinese economy reflects the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China.
2021 is the first year of China's "14th Five-Year Plan". The Communist Party of China has formulated a five-year plan to determine the country's economic and social priorities and lead the people to achieve national development together.
At present, China is building a new development pattern with the domestic big cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycles promote each other, which supports the recovery and continuous prosperity of the Chinese economy in the post-epidemic period.
Kenyan media expert Ndegowa said in an article in the People’s Daily that China’s economic growth has been amazing on the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China.
Although the new crown pneumonia epidemic has brought severe and complex challenges to the world economy, China has still achieved a strong V-shaped recovery and has become the main driving force for the global economic recovery.
China uses technological innovation to drive high-quality development. While reducing external shocks, it persists in opening up and actively participates in global economic governance.
The Director of Nigeria’s Center for Chinese Studies, Onuna Iju, published an article in Nigeria’s Blueprint News that China’s solid economic foundation and high-quality development can not only ensure its own strong and inclusive growth, but also contribute to the recovery of the global economy in the post-epidemic period. .
China has always adhered to the people-centered development concept. The fundamental purpose of development is to improve people's livelihood and well-being. This is worth learning from African countries.
