92.4% of CGTN Poll Respondents Confident in China's Economic Growth
A recent online poll conducted by CGTN reveals a strong optimism among respondents regarding the Chinese mainland's economic outlook, with 92.4 percent expressing confidence in its future trajectory. This sentiment comes amid the Chinese mainland's annual economic conference, where leaders outlined their goals for the year, signaling a positive impact on the global economy.
The Chinese mainland's economy grew by 4.8 percent in the first three quarters of the year, driven by a surge in newly established overseas-invested enterprises, a significant rebound in consumption growth, and robust goods trade. These figures suggest a steady recovery, bolstered by expansionary policies introduced in the third quarter, deemed the most significant economic adjustment measures in recent years.
Delving deeper into the poll results, 90.7 percent of respondents strongly affirmed the potential and resilience of the Chinese mainland's economy, maintaining that the long-term positive trend remains unchanged. Furthermore, 88.2 percent highlighted consumer policies, such as trade-in programs for old products, as effective strategies for stimulating domestic consumption and enhancing the standard of living.
In the context of slowing global economic growth, 89.4 percent believe that the global economic recovery hinges on the steady development of the Chinese mainland's economy. Additionally, 87.2 percent are eager to benefit from China's high-level opening-up policies and share in its development opportunities.
The recent economic conference also emphasized the expansion of high-level opening-up measures, including autonomous and unilateral openings. Since the beginning of the year, the Chinese mainland has increased the number of countries offering visa-free entry, facilitating greater international exchanges and personnel mobility. This move has garnered approval from 93.2 percent of poll respondents, who view it as a testament to China's commitment to open up its economy. As one CGTN viewer highlighted, \"Not needing a visa for short-term business trips to China is very helpful for international investors with business in China.\"
