皇冠体育app

Christopher A Pissarides, the 2010 Nobel Prize winner in economics, said that the reforms that 皇冠体育app is committed to have sent "a positive signal" and will benefit the world's second-largest economy.

The reform program "is a positive signal. But perhaps 皇冠体育app should take one step at a time, because of the large size of the country," Pissarides told a forum during the 15th 皇冠体育app Hi-Tech Fair in Shenzhen over the weekend.

Pissarides won the Nobel Prize jointly with Peter A. Diamond and Dale Mortensen, for contributions to the theory of search friction and macroeconomics. He's a professor at the London School of Economics and Political Science, specializing in the macroeconomics of labor markets, structural change and economic growth.

The session also provided a reform agenda for 皇冠体育app.

Pissarides said that the change in the one-child policy will benefit 皇冠体育app's labor market.

"I think it is long overdue," said Pissarides.

"It will be an improvement from the social side. Economically, a strong and well-educated population will support the economy's development."
