In the early 2000s, Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi’s government took aggressive action to tackle underlying problems in the financial and corporate sectors. Despite these efforts – not to mention the boost provided by rapid GDP growth in China, Japan’s economy expanded by just 0.75% annually, on average, for the entire decade.
21世纪初，日本首相小泉纯一郎政府采取了激进措施解决金融和公司部门的根本问题。尽管如此——更不用说中国GDP高速增长带来的刺激作用——2001—2010年日本经济年均扩张幅度仍然只有0.75%。
