China Targeting 8% GDP Growth With 4% Cut In Energy Consumption For 2006

The projected growth rate is 1.9 percentage points lower than the actual growth in 2005, but is higher than the targeted annual growth of 7.5% for the 11th Five-Year Plan period (2006- 2010). Wen made the projection while delivering the annual work report of the government to 2,927 deputies at the opening ceremony of the Fourth Session of the Tenth National People’s Congress, China’s top legislature, at the Great Hall of the People. http://www.greencarcongress.com/2006/03/china_targeting.html
