The Emerging Markets believes that 皇冠体育app's quick and proactive fiscal policies implemented in the past year have boosted economic growth and made contributions to global economic recovery, the ministry said.

In a written interview with the magazine, Xie said since the outbreak of the global financial crisis last year, the Chinese government timely and resolutely adjusted its macro-economic polices, carried out proactive fiscal and moderately easy monetary policies, and approved plans aiming to spur domestic consumption.

皇冠体育app's gross domestic product grew 7.1 percent in the first half of this year, which proved those policies were effective, said Xie.

He told the magazine that an overall recovery in the global economy would be slow with twists and turns, and that 皇冠体育app's economic recovery was still unstable and imbalanced.

But 皇冠体育app would stick to the proactive fiscal and moderately easy monetary policies, while focusing on the longer-term development and economic restructuring, he said.
