李克强在博鳌亚洲论坛开幕式上的演讲

尊敬的各位嘉宾，女士们，先生们，朋友们：

Dear Guests,Ladies and Gentlemen,Dear Friends,

很高兴在春和日丽的季节，和来自52个国家的朋友们会聚在中国美丽的海南岛，一起出席博鳌亚洲论坛年会。在此，我代表中国政府，对年会的召开表示热烈的祝贺！对远道而来的嘉宾表示诚挚的欢迎！

In the lovely spring, I am delighted to meet with friends from 52 countries and regions at the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2014 in the beautiful island of Hainan. On behalf of the Chinese government, I wish to extend warm congratulations on the opening of the annual conference and a hearty welcome to all forum participants.

博鳌亚洲论坛已举办十二届，成为聚焦亚洲、放眼世界的一个重要平台。“水美鱼丰”，这是博鳌的特征，也是论坛硕果累累的象征。出席本届论坛的有亚洲和非洲多位政府首脑，也有众多的商界领袖和智库、传媒界的杰出人士，老友新朋汇聚一堂，大家都为亚洲与世界的发展大计而来。思想越辩越新，朋友也就会越交越真。希望各位畅所欲言，发表真知灼见。

The Boao Forum for Asia has entered its 12th year, and it has become an important platform with an Asian focus and a global vision. "Boao", the site of the Forum, means "enchanting water and abundant fish" in Chinese, and I think it is a symbol of the Forum's fruitful achievements. Attending this year's annual conference are many heads of government from Asia and Africa, and a great number of business leaders, and think tank and media representatives. Friends, both old and new, are meeting here to discuss ways to boost development of both Asia and the world. Exchange of views will create new vision, and more interactions bring friends closer. I hope that you will be fully engaged in forum discussions, and I look forward to benefitting from your insights.

当今世界正处于深刻变化之中。国际格局面临新的调整，影响全球与地区局势的不确定不稳定因素增多，热点问题此起彼伏，多极化进程在曲折中发展。世界经济深度调整，发达经济体有好转趋势，新兴经济体又遇到新的挑战，不同国家经济走势分化，全球复苏进程缓慢艰难，增长动力依然不足，实现经济强劲、可持续、平衡增长任重道远。

Our world today is undergoing profound changes. The international architecture faces new adjustment. Uncertainties and destabilizing factors affecting the global and regional environment are increasing. Hotspot issues emerge from time to time. The world is moving towards multi-polarity amidst twists and turns. The global economy is in profound adjustment. Developed economies have seen new changes, while emerging economies have encountered new challenges, and many countries are on different economic trajectories. The global recovery has been a slow and difficult process and growth remains lackluster. To achieve strong, sustainable and balanced growth is still a daunting challenge facing all of us.

今天的亚洲正处在发展的关键时期。亚洲是全球最具活力的地区之一，经济规模占世界的1/3，人口有40多亿，劳动力供给充足，后发优势明显，发展潜力远未释放。同时，亚洲大多是发展中国家，人均GDP不高，地区发展水平很不平衡，还有7亿多人生活在国际贫困线以下，发展经济、改善民生的任务依然艰巨。亚洲各国既面临老问题，也有不少新烦恼。解决亚洲的问题，归根结底，还是要靠发展。发展改变世界，发展创造未来。发展仍然是亚洲国家的第一要务。

Asia is at a crucial stage of development. Asia is one of the most dynamic regions in the world. It boasts one third of the global GDP, over 4 billion people and ample supply of labor force. It enjoys distinct advantages as a late comer and has tremendous untapped development potential. That said, most Asian countries are developing nations, with low per capita GDP and uneven regional development. Over 700 million people in Asia still live below the international poverty line. Asia is faced with the huge challenge of growing the economy and improving people's livelihood. And Asian countries have to address both old problems and new ones. Ultimately, the key to solving Asia's problems lies in development. It is development that will change the world and shape the future. Development therefore remains the top priority of Asian countries.

新形势下，亚洲保持发展势头需要源头活水，最重要的是发掘新的动力。本届年会以“亚洲的新未来：寻找和释放新的发展动力”为主题，很有现实针对性，这对亚洲乃至全球都具有深远意义。在此，我愿提出几点看法，与大家交流。

To sustain its development momentum under the new conditions, Asia needs to find a dynamic source of development to re-energize itself. The theme of the annual conference: "Asia's New Future: Identifying New Growth Drivers" cannot be more relevant and is crucial to Asia and the world. Here, I wish to share with you my views as follows:

第一，坚持共同发展的大方向，结成亚洲利益共同体。在经济全球化背景下，亚洲各国的发展，不可能独善其身，更不是你输我赢的“零和博弈”，而是你中有我、我中有你的互利合作，能产生“一加一大于二”的效应，甚至是“二加二大于四”的乘数效应。

First, we should stick to the overarching goal of common development and build an Asian community of shared interests. In the age of economic globalization, no Asian countries can achieve development in isolation from each other, still less can they pursue development as a "zero-sum game". Rather, with our interests closely entwined, we the Asian countries need to seek mutually beneficial cooperation where "one plus one can make more than two" and even produces a multiplying effect in which "two plus two makes more than four".

时至今日，国际金融危机的影响还没有过去，发达国家宏观政策调整又增加了发展环境的复杂性，部分亚洲国家经济增速下滑、通胀上升，甚至出现资本外流、货币贬值现象，国际上唱衰新兴经济体的声音再起。

The impact of the international financial crisis still affects us. Macro-policy adjustments made by developed countries have added uncertainty to the environment for development. Some Asian countries have experienced economic slowdown, rising inflation, and even capital flight and currency depreciation. Pessimistic views about the prospects of emerging economies have resurfaced.

面对这些新情况、新问题，亚洲国家要继续同舟共济、共克时艰，把经济的互补性转化为发展的互助力，不断扩大利益交汇点，实现互惠共存、互利共赢。

Faced with these new developments and new problems, we countries in Asia should continue to act in the spirit of solidarity in face of difficulties, turn our strong economic complementarity into mutual support for each other's development, expand convergence of interests and achieve mutually beneficial coexistence and win-win development.

过去十多年，亚洲区域内贸易规模从1万亿美元扩大到3万亿美元，占区内各国贸易总量的比例从30%上升到50%，但如与欧盟相比还有很大差距。区域经济一体化是地区各国的共同利益所在，我们应齐心协力促进贸易自由化和投资便利化，提升区域和次区域合作水平。

In the past decade and more, intra-regional trade in Asia has expanded from US$1 trillion to US$3 trillion, and its share of total trade of all Asian countries increased from 30% to 50%. Yet this is still far less than that in the EU. Regional economic integration meets the interests of all Asian countries. We need to work in unison to promote trade liberalization and investment facilitation, and upgrade regional and sub-regional cooperation.

“区域全面经济伙伴关系协定”(RCEP)是东亚地区参与成员最多、规模最大的贸易协定谈判，是对既有成熟自贸区的整合。RCEP具有较强的包容性，符合亚洲产业结构、经济模式和社会传统实际，采取循序渐进方式，兼顾成员国不同发展水平，不排斥其他区域贸易安排。

The negotiation on the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) is the largest trade agreement negotiation with the most extensive participation in East Asia, and the RCEP is integration of existing mature free trade areas. Being highly inclusive and based on Asia's industrial structure, economic model and social tradition, the RCEP is a phased-in arrangement that accommodates member countries at different levels of development, and it does not exclude other regional trading arrangements.

中方愿与各方一道，积极推动谈判进程。与此同时，可考虑启动亚太自贸区(FTAAP)的可行性研究，以实现亚太地区贸易投资利益最大化。

China will work with all other parties to accelerate the negotiating process. At the same time, the launching of a feasibility study on a Free Trade Area of the Asia-Pacific (FTAAP) may be considered to maximize the benefits of trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific.

中国对“跨太平洋战略经济伙伴关系协定”(TPP)持开放态度，只要有利于世界贸易的发展，有利于公平开放的贸易环境，中方乐见其成。我们坚持维护世界贸易组织(WTO)多边贸易体制在全球贸易发展中的主导地位，RCEP和TPP应成为多边贸易体制的重要补充，二者可以并行不悖、相互促进，希望RCEP在2015年能够达成协议。

China takes an open position towards the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). As long as the TPP is conducive to the development of global trade and the fostering of an equitable and open trading environment, China is happy to see its conclusion. We are committed to upholding the central role of the WTO multilateral trading system in global trade development. Both the RCEP and the TPP should become important supplements to the multilateral trading system, and these two mechanisms should go hand in hand and reinforce each other. We hope that agreement can be reached on the RCEP by 2015.

众人拾柴火焰高。只要地区各国同心并力，就一定能够继续发挥亚洲作为世界经济重要引擎的作用。

As a Chinese saying goes, "When everybody puts firewood in the fire, the flame rises high." As long as the Asian countries make concerted efforts, we can ensure that Asia will continue to serve as an important engine driving the global economy.

第二，构建融合发展的大格局，形成亚洲命运共同体。实现亚洲共同发展，根本出路在于经济融合。创造亚洲的美好未来，要靠各国的自身发展，更要靠地区的共同进步。

Second, we should foster a general environment for integrated development and form an Asian community of common destiny. Economic integration is central to achieving common development in Asia. Asia's beautiful future hinges upon not only the development of each and every country but, more importantly, the common progress of the whole region.

中国有句谚语，“单丝难成线，独木不成林。”地区国家要深化各领域务实合作，在开放中融合，在融合中发展，系牢经济联系的纽带，抓住创新发展的机遇，掌握自己的发展命运。

As a Chinese adage aptly puts it, "A single thread cannot be spun into a cord. And a single tree cannot create a forest." We the Asian countries need to deepen result-oriented cooperation in all fields, pursue integration through opening-up and development through integration, strengthen economic ties, seize the opportunity of innovation-driven development, and thus hold the destiny of development in our own hands.

基础设施互联互通是融合发展的基本条件。地区各国应携起手来，加快推进铁路、公路、航空、水运等基础设施建设。中方愿与相关国家一起，规划建设孟中印缅经济走廊、中巴经济走廊，打造中国—东盟自贸区升级版，今年还要推动“丝绸之路经济带”和“21世纪海上丝绸之路”建设的重要项目。

Infrastructure connectivity is a basic condition for integrated development. Countries in the region should join hands and speed up infrastructure construction including rail, road, air and water transportation. China is ready to work with countries involved to draw up plans for building the Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) Economic Corridor and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, and upgrade China-ASEAN FTA. China will continue to promote the important projects of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road this year.

中方愿与域内外相关方抓紧磋商亚洲基础设施投资银行筹备事宜，争取早日正式成立。产业互接互补是融合发展的主要内容。各国应利用相互毗邻的地缘优势，推动上、中、下游全产业链深度合作，形成优势互补的产业网络和经济体系。

China is ready to intensify consultations with relevant parties in and outside Asia on the preparations for the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and hopes that the bank can be officially launched at an early date. Industrial complementarity is a key aspect of integrated development. We the Asian countries should take advantage of our geographical proximity to deepen cooperation across the upstream, mid-stream and downstream industrial chains, and build an industrial network and economic system that draw on our respective comparative strengths.

亚洲经济的命运取决于改革创新和结构调整。各国要顺应全球新技术革命大趋势，加强相互交流，借鉴彼此经验，促进科技进步和人才培养，尤其是青年人才的培养，推动以绿色能源环保、互联网等为重要内容的“新经济”发展，占领未来发展制高点，提升产业和经济竞争力。这不仅有助于增强本区域持久发展的内生动力，也将为全球经济复苏带来新的机遇。

The destiny of the Asian economy hinges on reform, innovation and structural adjustment. Asian countries need to ride the global trend of new technology revolution, enhance exchanges, and draw on each other's experience to advance scientific and technological progress and personnel training, especially young people, boost the "new economy" featuring green development, energy, environmental protection and the internet so as to seize an advantageous position in future development and raise industrial and economic competitiveness. This will not only increase the internal impetus for achieving sustained development in our region, but also create new opportunities for global economic recovery.

第三，维护和平发展的大环境，打造亚洲责任共同体。地区动荡是祸，周边稳定是福。亚洲的进步得益于和平稳定的地区环境，和平稳定是亚洲发展的基础保障。

Third, we should maintain the general environment of peaceful development and build an Asian community of shared responsibilities. Regional turbulence courts disaster while stability in the neighborhood brings prosperity. Asia owes its progress to a peaceful and stable regional environment, and peace and stability are the fundamental safeguards for Asia's development.

60年前，中国、印度和缅甸共同倡导的“和平共处五项原则”，已成为国际关系基本准则，这充满了东方智慧，也是对人类文明作出的重要贡献，我们要把和平共处的理念世代传承下去。

Sixty years ago, China, India and Myanmar jointly initiated the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, which have become basic norms governing international relations. These principles embody Oriental wisdom and represent a major contribution to human civilization, and we should pass on the vision of peaceful coexistence from generation to generation.

远亲不如近邻，近邻可成友邻。实现亚洲的和平与稳定，需要地区国家凝聚共识，积极作为，共同担当起应尽的责任。各国应推动安全对话与磋商，加强灾害管理、海上搜救、反对恐怖主义、打击跨国犯罪等非传统安全领域合作，积极探讨建立亚洲区域安全合作框架。

A close neighbor is better than a kinsman afar, and close neighbors can become best friends. To achieve peace and stability in Asia, we the Asian countries should build consensus, make active efforts and jointly fulfill our due responsibilities. We should promote security dialogue and consultation, strengthen cooperation on non-traditional security issues, including disaster management, maritime search and rescue, counter-terrorism and combating transnational crimes, and actively explore the establishment of a regional security cooperation framework in Asia.

这里我要强调，中国将继续坚持走和平发展道路，奉行睦邻友好的周边外交政策，同时我们维护本国领土主权的意志也是坚定不移的，愿通过和平手段解决争端的主张也是明确的。对加强海上合作的积极行动，我们都会倾力支持；对破坏南海和平稳定的挑衅行为，我们会果断回应。

Here I wish to emphasize that China is committed to peaceful development. We pursue a neighborhood policy of building amity and friendship, and we are firm in our resolve to uphold China's territorial sovereignty. We also follow a clear-cut policy of seeking peaceful solutions to disputes. We will give full support to initiatives that help strengthen maritime cooperation. We will not accept acts that undermine stability in the South China Sea.

中国人历来讲求“以德报德，以直报怨”，我们重情义，不会亏待朋友；我们讲原则，坚定维护根本立场。

We Chinese believe in repaying kindness with kindness and meeting wrongdoing with justice. We value friendship and never treat friends unfairly, and we also stand by principles and firmly uphold our fundamental position.

南海和平稳定符合包括中国在内的周边国家的共同利益，中方愿在《南海各方行为宣言》(DOC)框架下，稳妥推进“南海行为准则”(COC)磋商进程，共同维护南海的和平稳定和航行自由。中国珍爱和平、渴望发展，愿与地区各国共同致力于建设和平、繁荣和开放的亚洲。

A peaceful and stable South China Sea is in the interest of all littoral countries, including China. China is ready to steadily advance consultation on a code of conduct in the South China Sea within the framework of the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, and work with other countries to ensure peace, stability and freedom of navigation in the South China Sea. China loves peace and cherishes development. It is ready to work with other countries in the region to build a peaceful, prosperous and open Asia and maintain peace, stability and tranquility in our neighborhood by enhancing political mutual trust.

女士们、先生们！

亚洲的发展关乎世界前景，中国的发展与亚洲息息相关。

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Asia's development is important to the future of the world, and China's development is closely bound up with Asia.

把经济运行保持在合理区间，是中国当前宏观调控的基本要求，也是中长期政策取向。今年中国经济增长预期目标是7.5%左右，既然是左右，就表明有一个上下幅度，无论经济增速比7.5%高一点，或低一点，只要能够保证比较充分的就业，不出现较大波动，都属于在合理区间。

To keep China's economy running within a proper range is both a basic target of China's current macro-control and its medium-to-long-term policy goal. We have set this year's target of economic growth at about 7.5%. The word "about" indicates that there is a range for the GDP growth. As long as there is fairly sufficient employment and no major fluctuations, the actual GDP growth will be considered to be within the proper range, be it slightly higher or lower than the 7.5% target.

根据有关方面的统计数据，当前，城镇就业持续增加，居民收入、企业效益和财政收入平稳增长，物价总水平保持稳定，全社会用电量增幅回升，结构调整出现一些积极变化，中国经济开局平稳，总体良好。

Statistics show that urban employment continued to increase, individual income, corporate profits and fiscal revenue registered steady growth, consumer prices remained stable, growth of electricity consumption started to rise and there were positive dynamics in structural adjustment. In short, the Chinese economy has got off to a stable and good start.

但也要看到，经济稳中向好的基础还不牢固，下行压力依然存在，一些方面的困难不可低估。这些问题，既是错综复杂国际大环境影响的结果，也是国内经济深层次矛盾凸显和增长速度换挡期的客观反映。

On the other hand, the upturn of the Chinese economy is not yet on a solid footing, downward pressure still exists, and difficulties in some fields must not be underestimated. These problems show the impact exerted on China by the complex international environment; they also reflect the prominent challenges and economic slowdown that China faces.

凡事预则立。面对当前复杂形势，我们既要冷静观察、保持定力，又要未雨绸缪、主动作为。宏观调控要把握总量平衡，更要着眼结构优化，根据形势变化合理把控调控的政策力度，适时采取针对性强的差异化措施。

Preparedness ensures success. Faced with this complex situation, we need to calmly assess the current developments, stay focused, and take initiatives as called for. In exercising macro-control, we will endeavor to strike a balance between aggregate supply and demand, focus on improving the economic structure, ensure proper policy intensity of macro-control in the light of changing situation and take targeted and differentiated measures as appropriate.

去年我们在实践中创新宏观调控思路和方式，积累了新的调控经验。我们不会为经济一时波动而采取短期的强刺激政策，而是更加注重中长期的健康发展，努力实现中国经济持续健康发展。我们已经确定的方针和所拥有的政策储备，能够应对各种可能出现的风险和挑战，中国的发展有着很强的韧性。我们有能力、有信心保持经济在合理区间运行。

Last year, we pursued creative thinking and methods in exercising macro-control and gained new experience in this regard. We will not resort to short-term massive stimulus policies just because of temporary economic fluctuations and we will pay more attention to sound development in the medium to long run and strive for sustained and sound economic development. With all the principles established and policy options at our disposal, we can handle all possible risks and challenges. China's development has strong resilience. We have the capabilities and confidence to keep the economy functioning within the proper range.

中国经济持续向好是有条件的。中国经济体量大，外汇储备多，协同推进新型工业化、信息化、城镇化、农业现代化，回旋余地很大，市场空间广阔。尤其是城乡之间发展差距较大；中西部和东北地区人口占全国60%以上，人均GDP则刚刚达到5000多美元，缩小城乡、区域差距带来的增长潜力巨大。已经出台和还将陆续推出的一系列促改革、调结构、惠民生政策措施，将对稳增长持续发挥作用。

There are conditions in place for the Chinese economy to achieve sustained sound growth. China has a big economy and large foreign exchange reserves. There is steady and coordinated progress in advancing the new type of industrialization, IT application, urbanization and agricultural modernization. And the Chinese market has broad space. There is much we can do to boost China's development. In particular, there is a large urban-rural gap in development. Population in the central, western and northeastern regions accounts for over 60% of the national total. And per capita GDP has just exceeded US$5,000. To narrow the gap between urban and rural areas and among different regions will unleash huge potential of growth. We have introduced a series of policies to advance reform, adjust structure and benefit the people, and more such measures are under consideration. All these will help ensure such steady growth.

基础实才会行得稳，动力足方能走得远。中国经济稳增长是有基础的，今后一个时期不但有保持中高速增长的良好条件，而且具备持续发展的不竭动力。本届年会主题是寻找新的动力，我们将着重在以下三个方面努力。

Steady growth is possible only with a solid foundation just as long distance can be covered only by a vehicle with a high-powered engine. The Chinese economy has the basis for steady growth. It not only enjoys good conditions for maintaining medium to high speed growth in the time to come, but also inexhaustible impetus for sustained development. Under the theme of identifying new growth drivers, we will make multi-pronged efforts in the following three areas:

一是要向改革要动力。市场中蕴藏着巨大的活力，人民中蕴藏着无穷的创造力。我们将继续加大简政放权力度，建立政府权力清单制度，探索实行负面清单管理模式，通过中国上海自由贸易试验区等建设，形成有益经验，并复制与推广到其他地区。这有利于放宽市场准入，更好创造营商环境，鼓励公平竞争，建设法治经济，也会更多释放改革红利，激发社会创造活力，稳定市场预期。

First, we will create impetus by deepening reform. The market has huge vitality and the people have indefinite creativity. We will work harder to streamline administration and delegate more power to lower level governments. We will introduce a system of listing government powers, consider the adoption of a management model based on a negative list approach, accumulate useful experience through the development of the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone and spread it to other areas. This will enable us to expand market access, foster a better business environment, encourage fair competition, develop a law-based economy, unleash greater dividends of reform, spark social creativity, and stabilize market expectations.

开放也是改革，开放可以促进改革。我们将着力推动新一轮高水平对外开放，一个很重要的方面，就是要扩大服务业包括资本市场的对外开放。譬如，我们将积极创造条件，建立上海与香港股票市场交易互联互通机制，进一步促进中国内地与香港资本市场双向开放和健康发展。我们将在与国际市场更深度的融合中，不断提升对外开放的层次和水平。

Opening-up is also a kind of reform and can boost reform. We will carry out a new round of opening-up at a high level. An important part of this endeavor is to further open up the services sector, including the capital market. For example, we will actively create conditions to establish a Shanghai-Hong Kong stock exchanges connectivity mechanism, and further promote two-way opening-up and healthy development of the capital markets on the mainland and Hong Kong. We will continue to raise the level and quality of opening-up through deeper integration with the international market.

二是要向调结构要动力。围绕缩小城乡、区域差距和解决产业结构不合理等问题，以结构改革推动结构调整。加快弥补服务业这块“短板”，把“营改增”试点扩大到邮政电信等更多服务领域，用税收的杠杆来培育壮大生产性和生活性服务业，更多运用社会资本，增加养老、健康、旅游、文体等生活性服务供给。

Second, we will create impetus by adjusting economic structure. We will narrow urban-rural and regional development gaps and address the unreasonable industrial structure to push forward structural adjustment through structural reform. We will speed up efforts to improve the services sector, which is our weak link, extend the pilot VAT reform to postal, telecommunications and other services sectors, use tax tools to develop producer and consumer services, and use more private capital to increase the supply of old-age support, health, tourism, cultural, sports and other services.

落实以人为核心的新型城镇化规划，从破解城乡之间和城市内部二元结构问题入手，有序推进转移人口市民化，政府加大支持力度与运用市场手段相结合，将在今年更大规模改造各类棚户区。

We will implement a new type of people-centered urbanization, address the bifurcation between urban and rural areas and within cities, and grant urban residency in an orderly manner to rural people who have moved to cities. The government will increase support and use market tools to rebuild more rundown areas this year.

我们将推动沿海向内地梯度发展，依托长江黄金水道和重要陆路交通干线，培育新的经济支撑带。着力推进整个中西部地区的铁路、公路等交通基础设施建设，为产业转移创造有利的条件。

We will expand development from the coastal areas to the inland regions in a phased way and nurture new economic support belts along the Yangtze River waterway and important land transportation trunks. We will push forward the construction of rail, road and other transport infrastructure in central and western regions to foster favorable conditions for industrial relocation.

我们还将积极推动绿色工业、新能源、节能环保技术和产品开发，形成新的增长点，在此过程中坚决淘汰落后产能，缓解资源环境的瓶颈约束。扩大国家新兴产业创投引导资金的规模，发挥创新驱动发展的作用，促进我国产业从中低端向中高端迈进，着力提高生产要素产出率。

We will also promote the development of green industries, new energy, and energy-conserving and environment friendly technologies and products to foster new growth areas, and resolutely eliminate backward production facilities in this process to ease the resources and environmental constraints. We will increase the size of the national guidance fund for venture capital in emerging industries, leverage the role of innovation in spurring development, move industries up the value chain, and raise the productivity of factors of production.

三是要向改善民生要动力。发展的目的是为了民生。中国13亿人是世界上最大的消费市场，也是“需求的富矿”。随着民生的改善，内需对经济增长的拉动作用将不断增强。我们需要随着经济发展，同步提高人民的收入，而就业是收入的来源，是民生之本，我们将实行更加积极的就业创业政策，加大对高校毕业生、失业人员就业创业的财税金融扶持和服务力度。

Third, we will create impetus by improving people's livelihood. The purpose of development is to improve people's lives. The 1.3 billion Chinese represent the largest consumer market and source of demand in the world. And as people's lives improve, the domestic demand will play a greater role in driving economic growth. We need to increase people's income as the economy grows. And employment is the source of income and crucial for people's lives. We will implement a more energetic policy for employment and entrepreneurship and give greater fiscal, tax and financial support and services to university graduates and unemployed people when they seek jobs or start their own businesses.

我们已把享受减半征收企业所得税政策小微企业范围的上限，由年应纳税所得额6万元较大幅度提高到10万元，并且还将对个体经营和企业吸纳就业进一步实行减免部分税收的政策，通过扩大就业创业来推动居民收入持续提高。我们将推动完善社会保障制度，健全公共服务体系，消除群众后顾之忧。采取鼓励居民消费的综合政策，提高居民消费能力，扩大商品和服务消费，降低流通成本，更好发挥消费对经济发展的支撑作用。

We have substantially raised the limit of annual taxable income of small and micro companies eligible for halved corporate income tax from 60,000 yuan to 100,000 yuan. We will also introduce more tax breaks to encourage individually-owned businesses and enterprises to hire more. We want to steadily raise people's incomes by creating more jobs and start-ups. We will improve the social safety net and public services so that people will have no worries. We will take a comprehensive set of policies to boost consumer spending, raise people's spending power, increase consumption of goods and services and reduce distribution costs so that consumption can provide greater support for economic development.

经过30多年的快速增长，中国经济已进入提质增效升级的新阶段。我们不仅要爬坡过坎，还要行稳致远，集亿万人民的勇气、智慧和力量，续写“中国故事”新的传奇，实现中华民族伟大复兴的中国梦。

Having registered rapid growth over the past three decades and more, the Chinese economy has entered a new stage of improving quality and performance. We need to overcome stumbling blocks on the way forward and make steady progress towards achieving our long-term goals. We will pool the courage, vision and strength of over one billion people to write a new chapter in the "China story" and endeavor to realize the great Chinese dream of national renewal.

女士们，先生们！

我们生活在一个相互依存的时代，世界从来没有像今天这样紧密相连，亚洲从来没有像今天这样需要合作共赢。集众智所为，才是真正成功之道。亚洲各国应密切合作，维护地区的和平稳定，共襄地区发展大业，把我们共同的家园建设好，也为世界和平、发展、合作做出更大贡献。中国将永远与亚洲各国一道，荣辱相依，休戚与共，共同开创亚洲发展新未来！

Ladies and Gentlemen,

We live in an era of interdependence. Never has the world been so closely connected as it is today; and never has Asia needed win-win cooperation so much as it does today. Success can only be achieved when the wisdom of all is pooled. We the Asian countries should work closely to uphold regional peace and stability, promote development in our region, build a common homeland for us and contribute more to world peace, development and cooperation. China will forge ahead and share weal and woe with other Asian countries in a joint effort to open up new vistas for Asia's development.

最后，预祝本次年会取得圆满成功！祝远道而来的各位嘉宾和与会各位朋友工作顺利、生活愉快、身体健康！谢谢！

In conclusion, I wish the forum full success and all the guests coming from afar and friends attending the conference a fruitful and enjoyable stay here and good health.

Thank you!
