At the first "Minister's Channel" of the Fifth Session of the 13th National People's Congress on March 5, He Lifeng, director of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that my country's total economic volume will reach 114.4 trillion yuan in 2021, and China's economy will increase by 130,000 yuan a year. It is the first time in the history of the Chinese nation that the 100 million yuan has reached 3 trillion US dollars, which is unprecedented in the history of world economic development.
This shows that China's economic development has strong stamina, strong resilience, and strong market players' vitality and ability to resist risks. This is the confidence and foundation for achieving the expected economic growth target.
Although the economic development this year faces many difficulties and challenges, as well as many uncertain and unstable factors, we have the conditions, capabilities and confidence to achieve the goals and tasks for the whole year.
The expected economic growth target of around 5.5% this year is achievable through hard work.
