On China's economic prospects

There is every reason to be fully confident in the future of the Chinese economy.

At present, China's economy remains generally stable and is making good progress. China saw the GDP growth of 6.7 percent in the first three quarters of 2018.

China's economy is truly performing well within the reasonable range, giving us a solid foundation for delivering the development goals for the whole year.

Compared with other major economies, China still ranks among the world's top in terms of GDP growth.

All in all, the favorable conditions are in place for the long-term, healthy and steady growth of the Chinese economy.

The Chinese economy is a sea, not a pond. Storms can overturn a pond, but never a sea.
