China's new Premier Li says achieving 5% GDP target this year not easy

China's new Premier Li Qiang on Monday said achieving the five per cent GDP target for the slowing down economy is not an easy task and requires redoubled efforts but assured the country's tattered private sector better environment, broader space for development. Li Qiang, the long-term aide of Chinese President Xi Jinping who succeeded Li Keqiang, in his first press conference, drew on Chinese folklore to demonstrate the country's resilience in the face of difficulties but concedes the economy faces challenges. He acknowledged that achieving the 2023 gross domestic product (GDP) growth target of around five per cent for this year on the current high base of China's economic output is not an easy task and requires redoubled efforts. Playing down the importance of GDP, he said most people do not keep their eyes on GDP growth all the time. China, the world's second-largest economy, last year reported a three per cent GDP, the lowest in decades and the target of about five per cent se

GDP growth may print at about 4% in Q4FY23: India Ratings analyst

Pencilling in just 4 per cent GDP growth for the fourth quarter, a rating agency report has said the final growth numbers for the full year will be lower than the second advance estimate of 7 per cent. The economy grew at 13.2 per cent in the first quarter and 6.3 per cent in the second three-month period due to base effect and much lower than the consensus expectation of 4.4 per cent in the third quarter. To close the full fiscal with a 7 per cent growth, the GDP should deliver at least a 4.1 per cent uptick. India Ratings analyst Paras Jasrai in a report said the agency expects GDP to print in at around 4 per cent in Q4, which would mean GDP growth for FY23 could be lower than 7 per cent but did not quantify the same. The National Statistical Office, in its second advanced estimate, has retained GDP growth at 7 per cent for the full year, which factors in a growth of 5.1 per cent. However, the agency sees many downside risks to this estimate, such as the pent-up demand, which had

Recent earthquake caused damage worth $5.1 billion in Syria: World Bank

The World Bank said on Friday that Syria sustained an estimated USD 5.1 billion in damages in last month's massive earthquake that struck southeast Turkey and northern parts of the war-torn country. The quake killed at least 50,000 people, including about 6,000 in Syria, according to the United Nations. Tens of thousands are still missing and hundreds of thousands were left homeless. In a report released on Friday, the World Bank says the level of the damage in Syria is about 10 per cent of the country's gross domestic product. Syria's northern province of Aleppo was the most severely hit region, accounting for 45 per cent of the total damages in Syria and amounting to about USD 2.3 billion in damages. Also badly hit was the rebel-held region in the northwest, home to some 4.6 million people, many of them previously displaced by Syria's war. Aleppo was followed by the northwestern province of Idlib, with estimated damages of USD 1.9 billion and Latakia, government-controlled territ
