國務院總理李克強11日在大連2013夏季達沃斯論壇開幕式上致辭表示，中國經濟已經到了只有轉型升級才能持續發展的關鍵階段。當前環球經濟復甦緩慢，中國經濟進入改革關鍵期。李克強首次以總理身份亮相夏季達沃斯，系統闡述中國應對當前經濟下行和推進改革的思路，主動回應國際社會對中國經濟的擔憂，顯示中國政府透過改革推動經濟發展的信心，向國際社會傳遞積極樂觀的信息，為確保穩增長營造有利的內外環境。
目前歐美經濟復甦緩慢，再加上美聯儲退出量寬政策的影響，新興市場遭受嚴峻考驗，大量資本外流，引發股匯震盪，新一輪金融危機風險迫近。環球經濟不景，中國經濟亦寒意驟起，經濟增速明顯放緩、市場信心不足、地方政府債務風險加劇的不明朗因素紛呈，中國經濟會否「硬著陸」成為全球關注的焦點。在此背景下，李克強向來自世界各地的財經政要明確指出：「中國當前經濟發展的基本面是好的，經濟運行是平穩的。在採取一系列穩增長、調結構、促改革的措施後，中國經濟運行呈現企穩向好的勢頭，中國今年經濟社會發展的預期目標、主要任務一定會實現。」
"Likonomics" gives a boost to foreign confidence
Speaking at the opening ceremony of the "Summer Davos Forum 2013" held in Dalian, China on 11 September, Premier Li Keqiang pointed out that the economy of China has now reached such a crucial stage that without structural transformation and upgrading, the country will not be able to sustain economic growth. At present, the global economy is recovering at a very slow pace and the economy of China enters a crucial stage of reform. Li Keqiang made his debut as the Chinese Premier at the forum, giving a systematic presentation about thoughts on how China would react to the current economic downturn and how China would push forward reforms. He took the initiative to respond to concerns the international community had on the economy of China. His move has demonstrated the Chinese government's confidence in promoting economic development through reforms and thus sends a signal of optimism to the international community. This will create a favorable condition both inside and outside the country to ensure a steady growth.
Now, the rate of economic recovery in Europe and America is slow and the Federal Reserve's exit from quantitative easing policy is looming. Emerging markets are faced with severe tests as massive outflow of funds triggers fluctuations in the stock and foreign exchange markets and a new round of financial crisis seems imminent. While the global economy is going weak, China also feels the chill. Uncertainties, such as an apparent slowdown of economic growth, a lack of confidence in the market and an increasing risk of debt issue in local governments, have already surfaced. Whether the Chinese economy would head into a "hard landing" becomes the focus of attention in the world. Against this backdrop, Li Keqiang specifically said to financial and economic dignitaries from around the world, "the present fundamentals of economic development in China are sound and the economy is stable. The adoption of a host of measures to pursue steady growth, conduct structural readjustment and promote reform has brought about a sound momentum of stable economic performance in China. The anticipated goals and major tasks that China sets for economic and social development for the whole year will certainly be achieved." （截自香港《文匯報》2013年9月10日） ■Translation by Tung-ming [ tungming23@gmail.com ]
