Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang addresses the opening ceremony of a High Level Forum on the Northeast Asia Economic and Trade Cooperation held in Changchun, capital of northeast China's Jilin Province, Sept. 1, 2009.
China's macro-economic policy would remain "consistent" and "stable" to consolidate a base for economic recovery, vice premier Li Keqiang said on September 1.
Although positive factors are accumulating and momentum apparently growing, China's economy still faces many difficulties and challenges as the international financial crisis is still not over, said Li at the opening ceremony of the 5th China Jilin Northeast Asia Investment and Trade Expo, in the northeastern city of Changchun, the capital city of Jilin Province.
He said the government would continue to stimulate consumer spending, push forward economic restructuring and facilitate foreign investment to energize enterprises and maintain persistent and steady economic expansion.
