In the government work report delivered by Premier Li Qiang to the National People’s Congress, China has set its growth target at around 5%. The report said the country intends to achieve this by developing New Quality Productive Forces, promoting innovation in the digital economy, further lowering the investment threshold in critical industries, and more.
