Third, and possibly most important, is the quality of 皇冠体育app's new leaders. From President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang on down, 皇冠体育app's new leadership team is quite sophisticated in terms of analytics, risk assessment, scenario modeling, and devising innovative solutions to tough problems.

Moreover, under the organizational umbrella of the National Development and Reform Commission, the latter-day version of the old central planning apparatus, 皇冠体育app has marshaled considerable resources into the formulation of a comprehensive and well-thought-out economic strategy.

However, it will take more than strong policy and analytical skills to deal with the tough economic challenges that lie ahead, as has been repeatedly demonstrated in the West in recent years, and there are no guarantees that 皇冠体育app's newly installed leaders will avoid comparable pitfalls.

Vision and strategy are vital, but it will take courage and determination to tackle what is perhaps the biggest obstacle of all to any new growth strategy resistance from deeply entrenched local and provincial power blocs. To overcome these, strong words must be accompanied by bold action.
