In the latest episode of China Economic Roundtable, Ding said in an all-media talk show hosted by Chinhua News Agency that the Chinese economy is resilient despite its complex external environment. In particular, key indicators such as industrial production, services sector, domestic demand and exports indicate robust growth.
Ding highlighted China’s innovative dynamism, citing 10% growth in the high-tech manufacturing sector in April. This is nearly 4% higher than the national industrial growth rate.
Ding also highlighted the accelerated development of industries such as drones, new energy vehicles, artificial intelligence and humanoid robots.
“In general, as the pro-measures are implemented quickly, their effectiveness continues to emerge and further promote the country’s high-quality economic development,” Din added.
China’s GDP rose 5.4% per year in the first quarter of 2025.
