摘要
Over a period of three decades from 1980 to 2010, China, the world＇s most populous country with one-fifth of the global population, managed to grow its real GDP by almost ten percent per annum, or expand the size of its economy by more than seventeen fold. The persistent hyper economic growth has lifted hundreds of millions of people from poverty and developed the country from one of the world＇s poorest economies to a global economic powerhouse and manufacturing base. The prolonged economic growth with such speed and scale is unprecedented in human history.
