China stresses domestic demand as crisis harms export
Adjust font size:

China would make boosting domestic demand a "long-term" strategy and take further measures to stimulate consumer spending, as the country seeks to lead its economy out of a slowdown that started with falling export.

The country would "give a full play" to the "leading" role of domestic demand, particularly consumer demand, in driving economic growth, according to a government work report to be delivered by Premier Wen Jiabao to the second session of the 11th National People's Congress Thursday.

China would actively boost domestic demand by increasing people's income, encouraging auto consumption, tapping the rural market, stabilizing the real estate market, offering proper housing for low-income families and accelerating the reconstruction of areas devastated in the May 12 earthquake last year, says the report distributed to the media before the opening of the session.
