保八 Eight Percent Protection
[ 2009-03-11 09:22 ]
A popular term to describe the central government's drive to achieve an 8 percent growth rate of the gross domestic product (GDP) this year.
“保八”是描述中央政府今年力保國內生產總值(GDP)增長8%的通俗說法。
China has maintained a nearly 10 percent GDP growth rate over the past three decades since reform and opening-up. The fast-growing economy is now at risk of an abrupt slowdown or downturn due to the global economic crisis.
改革開放政策實行30年以來,中國國內生產總值一直保持年均增長10%的態勢。全球經濟危機導致的經濟突然放緩和低迷使中國快速增長的經濟目前處境不利。
Its 8 percent economic growth is considered necessary to maintain social stability and provide jobs for tens of millions of new laborers swarming into the country's crowded job market every year.
通常認為,“保八”對保持社會穩定以及為每年新增的數千萬就業人口提供工作崗位十分必要。
