Economic forecasting Wanna bet?Mar 31st 2012, 9:58 by The Economist online Will the Chinese economy surpass Americas before the end of this decade? Michael Pettis, a professor at Peking University who has long been bearish on the Chinese economy, has betThe Economistthat it wont. Our Free Exchange blog has taken up the bet and countered with another: that Chinese GDP will grow faster than Mr Pettiss prediction of an average 3% a year this decade. What do you think? *參考該名網友資料: ============= Connect The DotsMarch 31st, 15:36 When will the Chinese GDP surpass America? · Recommend (8) · Report ================ Wanna bet? Apr 3rd 2012, 09:26
From the first visit to China in 1972, Richard M. Nixon with Henry Kissinger, well-prepared for the restoration of China-U.S. relationship, would like to improve the bilateral trade when China’s economy was hampered in the process of Chinese Cultural Revolution. Facing the desolation in China, the symbol of ties, such as ping-pong diplomatic, was more than the essentially economic activities. Yet, very earliy passionate, America foresaw the vision of Chinese next prosperity for the gross advantages behind the diplomatic and economic normalization
It takes more than one generation to recover Chinese economy from the decline after the mark of The Third Plenary Session of 11th Central committee of China’s Communist Party. Then, China’s formation of modern economy built up depending on the decision in Bashan-ron meeting. In 1989, China’s GDP already surpassed Taiwan’s; furthermore, Beijing first held the annual meeting of Asian Development Bank (ADB) ensuring the generator of world economy’s role. Although there was an incident of June-fourth Tienanmen Square, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) had increased rapidly constantly until last year.
In 1997, Beijing abolished laws that restricted imports and exports by foeign-owned companies in China, leading to the second period’s accretion of FDI’s acceleration. The law, mainly pushed forward by then prime minister Zhu Rong-ji, had the world clearly see “who China really is” with Disney Mulan’s “Reflection” MV background in Yiheyuan (Beijing Summer Palace). The song, played by Christina Aguilera, reflected Zhu’s ambition to embrace the world economy tightly in expectation of all American for the advanced relationship:
(the last paragraph) “Why must we all conceal What we think, how we feel? Must there be a secret me Im forced to hide? I wont pretend that Im Someone else for all time When will my reflection show Who I am inside?”
Still in 2000, when Taiwan’s alteration of party occurred, the gross economy of Taiwan is nearly equal to that of Yangtze River’s south plus Pearl River’s surroundings in China. The talks of Chinese rise in the world had wide range from politics to traditional culture. Besides, the argument of whether China threatens or peacefully rises up has been prevailing. Meanwhile, there were so many foreigners, especially American, wondering about the myth of China or potentially Chinese surprise in the world.
Another background, “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, showed the beautifully classical sensation satisfying numerous curiosity about China’s tiny and huge, following more foreigner focuses on this waking dragon. This movie let Lee Ang win the reputation in America with Oscar’s Gold. Today, I, one more time, listen to this prologue expressed by Coco Lee (Lee Wen) still continue my endless exclamation of Chinese recovery, not because of Coco Lee’s DJ ability in Taipei’s Police Radio Company at my age of less than 10 but the impression on Chinese art in this prominent movie.
(the last paragraph) “I tear and also sleep in the moonlight without regrets, just waiting for the true lover having me wake up with a kiss. I spend one day falling into the sleeping dream and moreover exercising one-year remembrance, saying you love me. I sleep deeply for love forever, as promised”
Deducing Chinese economy from statistics for two decades and experiencing the process of Beijing Olympic Game, nowadays China’s GDP reaches USD. 8130bn and the preview of 7.5% growth while America gets USD. 15604bn and 1.3% growth. Given the approximate 1.1% for American growth and 7.5% for China (pessimistic for China and optimistic for America) last for ten years, we can get respectively 17407.9bn and 16756.2bn about 2022-2023. That is to say, before the end of this decade, this question’s answer is “No”. And 12 years later, about 2024 China’s macroeconomics, GDP 19363.9bn, can wholly surpass America’s 17793bn. The answer is “Yes” when it comes to PPP for the occurrence is about 2018-2019. Indeed, China is already the biggest buyer in the world.
Using certain measurement to say, Guangdong’s economy surpassed Taiwan’s in 2011’s early summer. After last July China’s economy had overtook Japan, China was processing the industrial structure changes and financial adjustment. Adding to the rearrangement of Beijing’s leading core of China’ Communist Party, I adamently conclude that the soft-landing is inclined to happen with smoothly going forward.

Is this Japan’s last bid to stay on top? For years, Japan was Asia’s richest and most powerful economy. It was the first Asian economy to industrialise, and the emerging Asian tigers—Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and later China—merely followed in its tracks. Now, however, Japan is steadily being overtaken. China’s economy is now bigger than Japan’s, but less noticed is the fact that Asia’s so-called newly industrialised economies (NIEs) are, one by one, becoming richer than Japan. Most economists reckon that the best way to compare living standards is to take GDP per person measured at purchasing-power parity (PPP), which adjusts for differences in the cost of living in each country. On this gauge, Japan was overtaken by Singapore in 1993, by Hong Kong in 1997 and by Taiwan in 2010. But the most humbling re-ranking will be when South Korea becomes richer than Japan. The latest forecasts from the IMF suggest that this could happen within five years (see chart). That would be a remarkable turnabout. In 1980 South Korea’s GDP per person was barely a quarter the level of Japan’s. In this section · »A game of leapfrog Calculated at market exchange rates, Japan’s per-head income is still higher than all the NIEs except Singapore. Yet Japan’s high prices, especially for housing and food, bring down the country’s true standard of living. PPPs are tricky to calculate and economists come up with different numbers, so the IMF’s figures are contentious. Some other yardsticks, such as car-ownership rates, still suggest that Japan has a comfortable lead over South Korea. But the trend is clear: the tigers are outpacing their teacher. *附一篇2月28日回顧中美關系的文章 China and the worldWhat a difference a decade makesFeb 28th 2012, 5:15 by T.P. | BEIJING
TEN years ago this month, while America was already starting to warm up its talk about regime change in Iraq, Chinas then-president, Jiang Zemin, fielded a question about the issue from an American reporter. With George Bush standing by his side in Beijing’s Great Hall of the People, Mr Jiang chose to cop out. “You asked about Iraq. The Iraq problem is relatively far away from us. But I think, as I made clear in my discussion with President Bush just now, the important thing is that peace is to be valued most.” That sort of bromide fit well enough with the principles that had long been at the core of Chinese foreign policy: a preference for steering clear of far-flung entanglements in order better to focus on growth and development at home; and a reluctance to endorse any country “interfering in the internal affairs” of another—lest anyone think about interfering in China’s. China had just joined the World Trade Organisation two months earlier, and was already on its way to a new and increasingly prominent role in the international community. It also imported 69m tonnes of oil that year. Mr Jiang delivered his reply to that reporter with a straight face in February 2002, but it was already stretching credulity to suggest that because of Beijing’s distance from Baghdad, he need not think too much about the looming crisis. Today China cannot even make such a pretence. For one thing, its oil imports have risen dramatically; they are projected to reach 266m tonnes this year. With such a dependency on foreign supplies, China cannot help but concern itself with the fate of the world’s oil-producing regions and the security of its own shipping routes. But oil is only one factor. As the world’s second-largest economy, China has seen its profile rise and its interests multiply. Growing engagement leaves China’s economy exposed to the winds buffeting other regions. Its people as more exposed too. There are now huge numbers of Chinese nationals living and working in hot spots around the world. The government had to evacuate more than 35,000 from Libya when that country slipped into turmoil last year. Together with China’s new and extensive involvement with the rest of the world comes a desire to exercise a greater degree of soft power, including the stronger assertion of Chinese interests in multilateral bodies. But there also comes the need to weigh in on issues that, in the past, China would have been able to keep comfortably at arm’s length. The controversy over Iran’s nuclear programme is a case in point. Countries including America, Israel and Saudi Arabia are urging China to adopt their hard line on Iran, which would be to the detriment of its considerable energy and commercial interests there. China is feeling similar pressure to take a firm stand on the increasingly chaotic situation in Syria. It is another sticky foreign-policy problem of the sort that China used to be able to sidestep. It no longer can, it seems, no matter how far away the trouble is. · 33 · inShare1 Related items
