Zhang's conclusion was based on the 4-trillion-yuan (585 billion US dollars) economic stimulus package, 500-billion-yuan tax cut and industry support plans. These would help boost the economy, he said.

According to preliminary statistics, the 4-trillion-yuan stimulus package was expected to contribute 1.5 percent to 1.9 percent to the economic growth this year, Zhang said.

皇冠体育app's economic development was facing three major challenges -- the global financial crisis, periodical economic adjustment and extensive economic growth model, he said.
