subject: China Is Not Really Rich [print this page] The second-quarter GDP, more than Japan, China is once again activated, "the world's second" one. China stressed that he is still developing, making the resentment of Western public opinion. They believe that China is in the poor-mouth, trying to escape as "the world's second largest economy" responsibility.
China's GDP, the world's second, is a fact. But it felt completely different and foreign. First thing outsiders see is a huge economy up slowly, it is in a strong central government under the unified leadership. First, the Chinese people happy, then that is a sigh. Because of the huge economies of China, is a huge population and resource consumption for the price. China's per capita GDP is only ranked 100 in the world around us has a second more realistic than the total amount of the painful experience.
Global network, according to the latest survey, 93% of Internet voting against the Chinese as "second in the world." Opinion that the same is because the Chinese people live in the "per capita", while not living in "Total" under.
The concept was invented in GDP 70 years ago, it was originally aimed at the U.S. and other Western countries economic activities as well Queshi more accurately reflect the economies of those countries the picture, but will use it for non-Western countries Fenxi accuracy at Jingchang be discount. Then the former Soviet Union is difficult to apply this system, but with the disintegration of the former Soviet Union, many countries have abandoned the resistance of this statistical method.
On China is, GDP jumped the second volume, in any case are gratifying thing. It records the activities of the Chinese economy is shrinking from nearly two centuries to reverse the growing and expanding, the ultimate amount of the sum of products and services in the GDP statistics system has finally reached the world's second of the difficult journey. However, this "second" Let's very practical, China in five years time, continuous over Italy, France, Britain, Germany, Japan, some people feel in any way untrue. China again soon, not that is the case. This center must have a link in the chain.
Most people living in China to understand this country. We have witnessed rapid changes in life, but look at foreign film, you know that your life and others far worse. From the national level, China Huan no Tong Yi, and Zhou Bian Cunzailingtu dispute, Zhengzhizhidu Bu is the world's Li Jie, defense and civilian Jishu are backward, resource Duiwai dependent degree Buduanshangsheng ... ... all of which China was constrained in the world ability to act, bound hand and foot in China, making China's big shadow, but no power.
GDP is only a bookkeeping method, China's basic national conditions of different countries and the United States and Europe, is among likely not comparable. If you insist on ratio calculation must be much more complex. Late last year, China has the world's research institutions have done overall national ranking in that list, China ranked seventh, behind the United States, Japan, Germany, Canada, France, Russia, leading in the United Kingdom, India, Italy, Brazil. This position closer to the true feelings of the Chinese people.
Perhaps the Chinese people that we do not need to be "the world's second" too concerned about a person by the outside world is difficult to accurately cognitive Shangqie, a country even harder not to be misread. "China threat", "China's responsibility" will always be someone to mention that China would like to stopping it. Therefore, it is important that we have more capacity to dealing with the outside world, China's business or to the Chinese word.
