总之，无论从短期看、还是从长期看，无论从实体经济领域看、还是从财政金融领域看，我们应对国际金融危机采取的一揽子计划和政策措施都是符合中国实际的，是及时的、有力的、有效的，是造福当代、利于后人、惠及世界的正确选择。当前中国经济运行呈现增长速度较快、结构逐步优化、就业持续增加、价格基本稳定的良好格局。二季度后一些主要经济指标增速出现回落，主要是基数影响和主动调控的结果。我们完全有信心、有条件、有能力继续保持经济平稳较快发展。我们将坚持把处理好保持经济平稳较快发展、调整经济结构和管理通胀预期的关系作为宏观调控的核心，把稳定政策作为宏观调控的主基调，保持政策的连续性、稳定性，增强调控的针对性、灵活性，进一步巩固和发展好的势头。
To sum up, from both the near and long-term perspective and in both the real economy and the fiscal and financial field, our stimulus package, policies and measures are timely, forceful, effective and suited to China's realities. They are the right choice that will bring benefits to both the current and future generations and serve the interests of the world. China's economy is now in good shape, featuring fast growth, structural improvement, rising employment and basic price stability. Growth of some major economic indicators moderated in the second quarter of this year. This is mainly due to the high level of the base figures and our proactive macro-control measures. We have the confidence, conditions and capabilities to maintain steady and fast economic development.
In exercising macro-control, we will take it as a central task to appropriately handle the relationship between maintaining steady and rapid economic development, adjusting the economic structure and managing inflation expectations, and we will take policy stability as the main focus. While maintaining the continuity and stability of our policies, we will make macro-control measures more targeted and flexible to consolidate and strengthen the sound momentum of development.
女士们，先生们：
Ladies and Gentlemen,
国际金融危机的深层次影响还没有完全消除，世界经济还没有进入稳步增长的良性循环，系统性和结构性风险仍然比较突出。要巩固和扩大应对国际金融危机冲击成果，并统筹考虑当前和长远发展，在继续促进经济复苏的同时，通过经济结构性的改革，为可持续发展创造条件。这是世界各国面临的共同课题。中国经济发展中也存在一些不平衡、不协调、不可持续的问题，主要是：经济结构不合理，科技创新能力不强，资源环境约束强化，城乡区域发展不平衡，经济社会发展不协调。这些问题有的是经济发展现阶段很难避免的，有的是体制改革不到位造成的。我们将把短期调控政策和长期发展政策有机
结合起来，把深化改革开放和推动科学发展有机结合起来，切实解决这些深层次、结构性问题。这样，中国经济才能实现更大更持久的发展。当前和今后一个时期，我们将着重在以下几个方面做出努力。
The underlying impact of the international financial crisis has not been fully eliminated, the world economy has yet to enter a benign cycle of steady growth, and systemic and structural risks are still prominent. We need to cement and build on what we have achieved in countering the financial crisis. We need to take into consideration both the immediate needs and long-term development and, while continuing to energize the recovery, create conditions for sustainable development through structural reform. This is a common task for all countries. In case of China, there is a lack of balance, coordination and sustainability in the economic development. The main problems include the unreasonable economic structure, weak capabilities for scientific and technological innovation, rising resources and environmental constraints, uneven urban-rural and regional development and lack of coordination between economic and social development. Some of these problems are inescapable in our current stage of economic development, and some are caused by inadequate institutional reform. To effectively address these deep-seated and structural problems, we will take an integrated approach that balances near-term macro control with long-term development and advances
reform and opening-up in the broader context of scientific development. Only in this way can the Chinese economy achieve greater and more sustainable development. For now and in the time to come, we will focus our efforts in the following fields.
——我们要坚持内外均衡发展，着力构建扩大内需特别是消费需求的长效机制。中国有世界上潜力最大的国内市场，充分挖掘市场潜力，有效释放国内需求，是促进中国经济长期稳定发展的关键所在，也是解决经济运行中突出矛盾的重要途径。我们将加快推进收入分配制度改革，努力提高居民收入在国民收入中的比重和劳动报酬在初次分配中的比重，创造条件让更多群众拥有财产性收入，尽快扭转收入差距扩大趋势，促进居民收入和消费可持续增长。我们将坚持统筹城乡区域协调发展，积极稳妥地推进城镇化，因地制宜地把符合条件的农民工逐步转为城镇居民，继续加快新农村建设，加强农村基础设施建设和改善公共服务，继续实施区域发展总体战略，大力推进西部大开发和东北地区等老工业基地振兴，促进中部崛起，着力培育内需增长新动力，拓展农村和中西部地区的内需增长新空间。同时，我们要坚持面向国际国内两个市场。中国经济是开放型经济，我国既是出口大国，也是进口大国。我们发展对外贸易，并不追求贸易顺差。目前中国对美国、欧洲等有顺差，但对日本、韩国有逆差；加工贸易有顺差，但一般贸易有逆差；出口恢复性增长很快，但进口增长更快。我们不能、也不会关起门来搞发展。我们将在扩大内需的同时，积极稳定和拓展外需，努力实现内外均衡发展。
-- We will pursue balance growth of domestic and external demand and establish a long-term mechanism to expand domestic demand, consumer demand in particular. The Chinese market is one with the largest potential in the world. To fully tap the potential and effectively unleash the domestic demand holds the key to long-term and steady development of China's economy, and represents an important means to meet the prominent challenges in the economy. We will speed up the reform of the income distribution system, and raise the proportion of individual income in the national income and the proportion of the primary distribution that goes to wages and salaries. We will create conditions for more people to earn income from property, reverse the trend of widening income gap as quickly as possible, and boost the sustainable growth of people's income and consumer spending. With a commitment to coordinated development between urban and rural areas and between different regions, we will take active and prudent steps to advance urbanization, and allow eligible rural migrant workers to gradually become urban residents in line with the local conditions. We will accelerate the building of the new countryside and improve rural infrastructure and public services. We will continue to implement the overall strategy for regional development, push forward the development of the western region and the reinvigoration of the old industrial bases in northeast China and other places, energize the development of the central region, cultivate new drivers for domestic demand, and open up new space for the growth of domestic demand in rural areas and
