作者：中華人民共和國(guó)國(guó)務(wù)院總理李克強(qiáng)

這是一個(gè)充滿考驗(yàn)的時(shí)代。

國(guó)際金融危機(jī)爆發(fā)近十年后，世界經(jīng)濟(jì)仍未能完全擺脫其負(fù)面影響，中國(guó)也面臨不少挑戰(zhàn)。但我們選擇迎難而上。

我們堅(jiān)信，開放的經(jīng)濟(jì)符合各方利益，對(duì)中國(guó)如此，對(duì)世界亦然。世界各國(guó)是命運(yùn)共同體，相互間開展貿(mào)易與投資合作，遠(yuǎn)比相互攻訐、高筑壁壘好。出現(xiàn)分歧，本著相互尊重、平等相待的精神商談解決之道，最符合各方利益。

中國(guó)堅(jiān)定支持世界貿(mào)易組織和一切旨在推動(dòng)包容發(fā)展的自貿(mào)安排。經(jīng)濟(jì)全球化在前所未有的規(guī)模上推動(dòng)了財(cái)富的創(chuàng)造和分享，但這一進(jìn)程也存在問(wèn)題，主要是在分享方面。只要各國(guó)齊心協(xié)力，確保所有人都能從全球化中受益，這些問(wèn)題是完全可以解決的。

在國(guó)內(nèi)，中國(guó)政府在處理同市場(chǎng)關(guān)系時(shí)采取介入更少、更加平衡的方式。為改善中國(guó)的營(yíng)商環(huán)境，我們推動(dòng)簡(jiǎn)政放權(quán)、放管結(jié)合、優(yōu)化服務(wù)等改革，著力防范各種風(fēng)險(xiǎn)隱患，并將不斷完善營(yíng)改增改革，確保各行業(yè)稅負(fù)只減不增。

我們將開放更多行業(yè)，并放寬更多行業(yè)準(zhǔn)入。我們正在對(duì)基于負(fù)面清單管理模式的外資準(zhǔn)入制度進(jìn)行推廣前的試點(diǎn)，未來(lái)還將出臺(tái)更多措施，讓所有在華注冊(cè)的企業(yè)都能一視同仁享受政策。在西部欠發(fā)達(dá)地區(qū)或東北老工業(yè)基地投資的企業(yè)，還可享受更多優(yōu)惠政策。

政府將繼續(xù)投資基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施建設(shè)，增加國(guó)內(nèi)需求。更多資源將投向鄉(xiāng)村公路、供排水系統(tǒng)和信息網(wǎng)絡(luò)建設(shè)等以往并不顯眼的短板領(lǐng)域。在改善硬件的同時(shí)，努力加強(qiáng)民生保障，特別是對(duì)弱勢(shì)群體的保障力度。

結(jié)構(gòu)性改革正在收到成效。2016年，中國(guó)壓減落后過(guò)剩鋼鐵產(chǎn)能6500萬(wàn)噸以上、煤炭產(chǎn)能2.9億噸以上。我們計(jì)劃在三至五年內(nèi)鋼鐵、煤炭產(chǎn)能分別壓減1.4億噸和8億噸，使相關(guān)行業(yè)恢復(fù)更加健康的基本面。與此同時(shí)，政府還聯(lián)手企業(yè)，為轉(zhuǎn)崗人員提供多種形式的再培訓(xùn)。僅2016年，轉(zhuǎn)崗安置人數(shù)就達(dá)到70萬(wàn)。

中國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)的新動(dòng)能正在蓬勃興起。服務(wù)業(yè)占經(jīng)濟(jì)總量的比重已超過(guò)制造業(yè)，領(lǐng)軍地位更加鞏固，消費(fèi)對(duì)GDP增長(zhǎng)的貢獻(xiàn)率在六成以上。新動(dòng)能不僅創(chuàng)造新價(jià)值，也提升了傳統(tǒng)產(chǎn)業(yè)的效率和競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力，推動(dòng)高技術(shù)產(chǎn)業(yè)和裝備制造業(yè)增長(zhǎng)領(lǐng)跑整個(gè)工業(yè)。

大眾創(chuàng)業(yè)、萬(wàn)眾創(chuàng)新向縱深發(fā)展。新的商業(yè)模式不斷涌現(xiàn)，此前許多意想不到的服務(wù)正日益成為生活中隨處可享的便利。一個(gè)典型的例子是建立在移動(dòng)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)基礎(chǔ)上的共享經(jīng)濟(jì)。除了訂餐、約車等基本服務(wù)，家政、健康咨詢等很多新服務(wù)也都只需輕點(diǎn)手機(jī)就可獲得。

數(shù)字最能說(shuō)明問(wèn)題。去年中國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)實(shí)現(xiàn)了6.7%的健康增長(zhǎng)。更重要的是，盡管產(chǎn)業(yè)進(jìn)一步優(yōu)化整合、工業(yè)機(jī)器人應(yīng)用日益廣泛，中國(guó)就業(yè)市場(chǎng)的彈性不降反增。2013年以來(lái)，我們每年新增城鎮(zhèn)就業(yè)1300多萬(wàn)人，失業(yè)率當(dāng)前處于多年來(lái)最低水平。

在一個(gè)不確定性層出不窮的世界上，中國(guó)是穩(wěn)定之錨、增長(zhǎng)之源，并始終如一傳遞深化改革、擴(kuò)大開放和推進(jìn)自由貿(mào)易的積極信息。時(shí)局不易，但正因如此，我們更不應(yīng)忽視這些中國(guó)和世界從中受益良多的原則。

以下為英文原文。

This is a testing time。

Almost a decade on, the world is still reeling from the fallout of the global financial crisis. China faces its fair share of challenges, but we choose to confront them head on。

Above all, we remain convinced that economic openness serves everyone better, at home and abroad. The world is a community of shared destiny. It’s far preferable for countries to trade goods and services and bond through investment partnerships than to trade barbs and build barriers. Should differences arise, it behooves us all to discuss them with respect and a keen sense of equality。

China stands resolute with the World Trade Organization and multilateral free-trade agreements designed to be inclusive. Economic globalization has enabled the creation and sharing of wealth on an unprecedented scale. There are problems, too, more on the sharing side. These can be addressed, but only if countries work together to ensure that a rising tide really does lift all boats。

At home, the government is opting for a lighter, more balanced touch while engaging the market. To make doing business in China easier, the state is consolidating administrative reviews and focusing more on compliance oversight, risk preparedness, and providing services. We keep improving implementation of the VAT reform to make sure that tax costs drop across the board。

We are opening new sectors of the economy to investment and widening access to many others. We are piloting a “negative list” model before a nationwide rollout, where investment access is assumed unless specifically restricted. More measures are in the pipeline to ensure all businesses registered in China are treated equally. Companies can enjoy additional incentives if they invest in less-developed western regions or in the northeastern industrial belt。

While the government is continuing to invest in infrastructure to boost domestic demand, more resources are going to improving rural roads, water supply, sewage systems, and information networks—areas that traditionally haven’t been as visible. In parallel with such hardware improvements, we’re continuing efforts to expand the safety net, not least for the more vulnerable members of society。

Structural reforms are showing results。

In 2016, China shed more than 65 million and 290 million tons of inefficient steel and coal-mining capacity, respectively. We plan to raise those numbers to 140 million and 800 million tons within the next three to five years to restore healthier fundamentals to those industries. Meanwhile, the government is working with business communities on various retraining programs. In 2016 alone, 700,000 workers once employed in downsized industries moved on to new jobs。

At the same time, new growth drivers are emerging strong. Services, which have surpassed manufacturing as a share of the economy, keep consolidating their lead. Consumption now contributes more than 60 percent of the growth in China’s gross domestic product. While creating new value, these drivers are also boosting the efficiency and competitiveness of traditional sectors, with high-tech and equipment manufacturing leading industrial expansion。

Entrepreneurship and innovation are taking root. Meanwhile, new business models are thriving, transforming many previously unimaginable services into daily conveniences. The mobile-internet-enabled sharing economy is only one obvious case. Besides ordering takeout or hailing cars, housekeeping, health consulting, and many more services are now just a swipe away。

The numbers bear out the case. The economy grew a healthy 6.7 percent last year. More important, despite industrial consolidation and ever more robots finding their way into factories, the job market is proving resilient. The economy has added more than 13 million jobs every year since 2013. Unemployment stands at a multiyear low。

In a world with a plethora of uncertainties, China offers an anchor of stability and growth with its consistent message of support for reform, openness, and free trade. The times may be difficult. But that’s all the more reason not to lose sight of these principles, which have stood China—and the world—in good stead。

Li has been the premier of the People’s Republic of China since March 2013.
