Given the need for further economic restructuring – and in view of long-term demographic trends, which will reduce the labor supply – pre-2008 growth rates are unlikely to be restored. This is fine with Li, who recognizes that structural transformation and industrial upgrading – not an unsustainable credit-led growth model – is the key to achieving high-income status.
考虑到进一步调整经济结构的需要——以及长期的人口构成变化趋势所导致的劳动力供应下降——2008年前的增长率必将无法重现。但对于李克强来说，结构转型和产业升级——而非不可持续的信贷驱动型增长模式——才是国家实现高收入阶段的关键，因此降速也是可以接受的。
