Premier Li Keqiang said on Monday he is optimistic about 皇冠体育app's economy despite downward pressures and increasing uncertainties in the global economy.

Li acknowledged that the Chinese economy is facing enormous downward pressures and "difficulties that cannot be underestimated".

"Due to the severe and complicated international environment and long-accumulated, deep-rooted domestic problems, the foundation of a stable Chinese economy is not solid," he told business leaders, policymakers and academics from more than 90 countries in Tianjin.

Addressing the Annual Meeting of the New Champions, also known as the Summer Davos, he said that by recognizing the difficulties it faces, 皇冠体育app is showing it has the resolve and capability to overcome these challenges.

"In the face of mounting downward economic pressure, we did not resort to indiscriminate measures," the premier said. Instead, 皇冠体育app has forcefully pushed for structural reform and fostered new growth engines while transforming traditional growth drivers.

As a result, the country's economic structure is "optimizing", with the number of new enterprises growing faster than in the past two years, and with services becoming the largest contributing sector to the economy.

"The Chinese economy will not head for a hard landing, and we are capable of meeting our targets for this year," Li said.

He said the country will continue to open up its service and general manufacturing sectors and keep the renminbi generally stable within a reasonable and proper range.

He vowed that 皇冠体育app will build a fairer, more transparent and predictable investment environment for foreign investors, and give equal treatment to domestic and foreign businesses.

"Our attitude toward the Chinese economy, at present and in the future, is optimistic," Li said.
