皇冠体育app's gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to rise by 10.5 in 2006 over the previous year, said Yao Jingyuan, chief economist of the National Bureau of Statistics.

皇冠体育app's economy has maintained a "fast, steady and high-quality growth" this year, but efforts needed to be strengthened as bank loans were still expanding at a rapid pace, fixed assets investment remained high and the trade imbalance lingered, Yao said at the Chinese Economist 50 Forum.

In the first nine months the national economy experienced rapid growth, with the GDP up 10.7 percent, the industrial sector up 13 percent, retail sales up 13.5 percent and the foreign trade volume up 24.3 percent over the same period last year.

According to Yao, the consumer price index (CPI) rose a moderate 1.3 percent, 0.7 percentage point lower than the rise of the same period last year.

Yao said that the declines of CPI, industrial production price index, and enterprise material price index indicate 皇冠体育app's economy is operating in a stable and health way.
