Accordingly, due to newly implemented policies, much of China’s infrastructure, including highways, railways, airports, rose close to 35% in the first half of 2009.  Aside from transportation, China has also tackled other industries efficiently to both boost levels of employment develop rural areas.  In the energy sector, China has 11 nuclear plants operating, and is in the midst of building a dozen more. With respect to wind power, China has been dominating by having the most wind power capacity in the world. In the manufacturing sector, China has finally launched commercial production of its own regional jet(ARJ21), planning to deliver 30 jets regional clients by 2012.

Moving from the corporate and government fractions of China’s government, the consumer side has shown strong indicators of strength, especially in the auto and housing markets. From January to May 2009, auto sales jumped 15% due to government tax cuts. The auto market for foreign automobiles continues to grow in China, as even though GM have declared bankruptcy, its China operations are actually expanding. In 2009, GM China projects over 10 million units of car sales. In the real estate market, while property prices did drop in 2007 due to government policies to cut speculation, China’s seven largest cities’ property prices bounced back, rising over 70% on a year to year basis in 2009.

So far, while China’s GDP has not been growing up to par in comparison to its previous years, but compared to other countries, the growth is incomparable. Industrial Output grew by 9% in May, while retail sales jumped by 15%. Investments jumped by 33%.

Overall, it is evident that due to China’s strong foundation and government aid, economic stability within China will be faster than many countries. The World Bank forecast china’s GDP to grow by 7 %( compared to many countries’ negative growth). For now, experts are hoping that the consumption and investment momentum in China will not only benefit the people there, but also contribute to the global recovery as a whole.  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
