  1. China’s Economic Development Prospects LI Shantong Development Research Center the State Council, P.R.China 2006

  2. China’s economy has been growing at a rate of 9.6% annually since 1978

  3. GDP (1991-2005)

  4. GDP Structure (old data)

  5. GDP Structure (new data)

  6. Share of Agriculture in GDP

  7. Share of Secondary Industry in GDP

  8. Share of Tertiary Industry in GDP

  9. WB’s income standard

  10. GNI per capita • Per capita GNI was $1100 (exchange rate) in 2003，was 20% of the world average, ranked 134 • Per capita GNI was $4980 (PPP) in 2003，was 61% of the world average,ranked 119 • Per capita GNI was around $1700 (exchange rate) in 2005

  11. 中国人均GDP在世界上的排位依然很靠后

  12. The Challenges of Economic Development in the Future • China’s overall integration with global economy will provide better conditions to the economic growth, but may also increase the uncertainty of economic development in the future • Capital accumulation will remain the important source for the economic growth, but the changes in population structure and the flow of international capital will make the saving rate and investment rate more uncertain

  13. Cont. • More progress will be made for the tough reform, but reform may become less effective in improving the re-allocative efficiency of resource • The progress in industrialization and urbanization will drive domestic demands to grow, but the cost for economic growth will rise

  14. The Challenges of Economic Development in the Future • Change in the mode of economic growth will improve the effectiveness in resource utilization, shortage in strategic resource reserve and environmental capacity will be of increasing constraints to economic growth • The constrains of natural resources and environment • Non tradable resources, such as land, water • Tradable resources • Environment problems

  15. The Challenges of Economic Development in the Future

  16. The Challenges of Economic Development in the Future

  17. The Challenges of Economic Development in the Future • Aging Problem • Pressure on employment • New labor forces • Labor force transformation • Limitation of public resources • Basic education • Public health • Social security system

  18. Aging Problem

  19. The Challenges of Economic Development in the Future • Income distribution • Rural and urban • Regional disparity • Different groups • Poverty (rural and urban) • Management • Central and local government • National Market integration • Banking System

  20. The Inequality in Household Income---The income gap between urban and rural households has been widening steadily

  21. The urban-rural income disparity has been increased recently

  22. Regional Income disparity－－GINI coefficient

  23. 面对的两难选择 • 现在物质技术基础比过去雄厚得多，但经济规模越来越大，能源和其他重要资源需求急剧增长，资源约束和环境压力也比过去大得多，经济增长的成本会持续上升 • 丰富而廉价的劳动力资源是优势，但就业压力大是困难，劳动力素质不适应技术进步要求也是困难。大学教育进入大众化阶段，大学毕业生就业难成为特殊的社会问题

  24. 面对的两难选择 • 工业化和城市化加快提供了广阔的发展空间，但经济结构和社会结构转型也蕴含着许多新的社会矛盾 • 20多年来经验的积累和国力的增强有利于推进改革，但新阶段改革更具综合性，而且往往会触动既得利益，难度随之增加 • 外部环境总体上比较有利，但不确定不稳定因素也在增加，加之我国资源短缺与一些行业产能过剩，国家市场竞争非常激烈。经济全球化在带来发展机会的同时，也会带来一些不确定性

  25. Scenario Analysis for Future Economic Development • Three scenarios • Business-as-Usual(BaU) • Chinese economy could maintain the past growth performance • Balanced Policy scenario • Chinese economic development could be more coordinated • Riskscenario • emphasizes that the risks and challenges in the process of future economic development • Based on the different assumptions about the key underlying factors

  26. Business-as-Usual • China will continue to pursue its reform and open-door policies • Socialist market economy system will be established and perfected step by step • Agricultural labor force will be constantly transferred to non-agricultural sectors • The opening to the outside will be expanded and deepened • The international environment will remain stable • Total factor productivity (TFP) will keep growing at an annual rate of 2.0% to 2.5 %

  27. Balanced Policy Scenario • The change trend of the ratio of intermediate input is apt to harmonious development of all industries, i.e. the intermediate demand for service and high technology goods increases, the rate of value-added in high tech. industries increases. • The efficiency of energy utilization is 0.2～0.5 percentage point higher than BaU • labor transfer from agriculture to non-agriculture quickly • TFP growth rate of service sectors is 1 percentage point higher than BAU in 2005～2010, 0.5 percentage point in 2010～2020

  28. Risk Scenario The Risk-scenario reflects a relatively pessimistic assumption on the future growth • The banking reforms and enterprise reforms are not entirely satisfactory • The elementary education has not been popularized and the quality of labor force has been improved slowly • There are still obstacles for the transfer of agricultural labor force to secondary and tertiary industries with slow progress • The changes in the mentality of residents have resulted in the reduced propensity to save and lowered level of household savings

  29. Risk Scenario • While China gradually enters an aging society, the traditional mode of family support for dependents has been gradually disintegrated, while the government has to take considerable responsibility in terms of social security, leading to increased financial deficits and tax burden • Due to the above factors, the improvement in the productivity could not be maintained at the level as in the last two decades. The annual growth would be only 1.5-2%, along with reduced household savings and slow transfer of agricultural labor force, which would be about the average levels in recent years. And after the year 2010, the public expenditure and the taxation would tend to increase

  30. Economic Growth and Source of Growth 2000-2020 (%，BaU)

  31. Economic Growth and Source of Growth 2000-2020 (%，Balanced Policy Scenario)

  32. Pollutant Discharge (% change in Balance relative to BAU)

  33. Economic Growth and Source of Growth 2000-2020(%，Risk Scenario)

  34. Economic Growth Rates in 2010-2020are Lower than in 2005-2010

  35. Conclusions • It is still possible for China to maintain its relatively fast economic growth in the next 15 years. • Numerous challenges confronting future development • The opportunities and challenges in the next 15 years will be not evenly distributed, and the period from 2005 to 2010 will be critical to the reform and development in China.

  36. Cont. • In the next 10-15 years, China still faces a possible slowdown in its economic growth. • Trade frictions • The lower rate of savings • The slower rate of capital accumulation • the higher costs of reform • And so on.

  37. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
