China's economic operation good in general: Xi

China's economy is functioning well in general, with some problems remaining that require the wisdom of all and solid efforts, President Xi Jinping has said.

All regions and departments have made innovative efforts in strengthening macro control and reforms since the beginning of this year, leading to deeper structural adjustment, a generally normal employment situation and stable society, Xi said at a symposium held last week with leaders of minor political parties and the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, as well as public figures without party affiliation.

"Governments at all levels should stick to the key work style of making progress while maintaining stability, and actively adapt to the 'new normal' of slower but steadier growth, with a focus on upgrading the quality and efficiency of economic development," Xi said. Enditem
