Sea review： 6%+! China’s GDP target brings good news to the world.

　　On the morning of March 5th, China released a data that the world has been waiting for for for a long time: in 2021, China will set the expected target of economic growth at more than 6%.

　　As soon as China’s economic growth target was announced, it attracted the attention of international public opinion. According to The Wall Street Journal, 6% is a relatively moderate target, which indicates that China remains optimistic after a gloomy year of global economy influenced by Covid-19.

　　The South China Morning Post mentioned that the target of 6% is based on the strong rebound of China in 2020. The New York Times reported that Beijing’s economic growth target is a positive signal for the global economy, indicating that Beijing is willing to maintain the vitality of the economic engine.

　　Fernando Lugris, Uruguayan ambassador to China, said in an exclusive interview with overseas websites: "We are all looking forward to seeing China take its own development path and continue to play the role of an engine of global economic growth."

　　Peruvian Ambassador to China Luis Quesada said: "Based on the historical growth rate of China in the past 40 years and the draft of the 14 th Five-Year Plan, I am very optimistic about the economic development trend of China."

　　What is even more remarkable is that China’s economy is not only faster but also more quality. CNN noted that China has considered "achieving sustainable and healthy development" when setting new goals.

　　With regard to the climate issue that is widely concerned by the international community, it is specifically mentioned in the government work report that the forest coverage rate in China should reach 24.1% during the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, and the energy consumption per unit GDP and carbon dioxide emissions should be reduced by 13.5% and 18% respectively. This really shows the world that China is refining its commitment to carbon neutrality into specific indicators, and China’s economy is taking a green development path.

　　Palita Kohona, Sri Lankan ambassador to China, said: "If we can’t deal with it effectively now, the world our children and grandchildren live in will be completely different from our present world. So I’m glad to hear that China will be carbon neutral by 2060. I think it will be an extraordinary achievement for China to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. "

　　At present, the COVID-19 epidemic is still spreading all over the world, the unstable and uncertain factors in the international situation are increasing, and the world economic situation is still complicated and grim. As an economy that contributes more than 30% to the world economic growth, China’s economic development with both speed and quality is a precious gift for this uncertain world.
