據國家統計局數據，2023年一季度國內生產總值284997億元，同比增長4.5%。服務業(yè)增速明顯回升，前期受疫情影響較大的接觸型聚集型服務業(yè)回升尤為突出。

 

 

China's economy grew faster in the first quarter of 2023, with a strong service sector and robust consumption driving the rebound and market expectations improving significantly despite multiple challenges.
中國經濟在2023年一季度增速加快，盡管面臨多重挑戰(zhàn)，強勢增長的服務行業(yè)和消費推動了經濟的復蘇，抬高了市場期望值。

 

China's gross domestic product (GDP) grew 4.5 percent year on year to 28.5 trillion yuan (about 4.14 trillion US dollars) in the first three months, data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) showed Tuesday.
國家統計局4月18日的數據顯示，今年一季度中國國內生產總值28.5萬億元，同比增長4.5%。

 

The pace accelerated from a 3-percent GDP growth for 2022 and a 2.9-percent increase in the fourth quarter of last year.
相比2022年國內生產總值3%的增速和去年四季度2.9%的增長幅度有所提升。

 

"China's national economy made a good start this year, and market expectations saw significant improvement," said NBS spokesperson Fu Linghui at a press conference.
國家統計局新聞發(fā)言人付凌暉在新聞發(fā)布會上表示，國民經濟開局良好，市場預期明顯改善。

 

"In the first quarter, China secured a smooth transition in COVID-19 prevention and control in a relatively short time," Fu said.
付凌暉稱，一季度實現疫情防控較快平穩(wěn)轉段。

 

A recovery in the service sector, which contributed 69.5 percent to overall GDP growth in the first quarter, is a bright spot of the economic operations during this period, said Fu.
付凌暉指出，服務業(yè)恢復向好是經濟運行中的突出亮點，對一季度國內生產總值增長的貢獻率達到69.5%。

 

The value-added output of the service sector rose 5.4 percent year on year in the first three months, with rapid expansion in contact-based industries from travel to catering.
一季度，服務業(yè)增加值同比增長5.4%，旅游、餐飲等接觸型的服務需求加速釋放。

 

The accommodation and catering sector surged 13.6 percent year on year in the first quarter, in sharp contrast to a decline of 5.8 percent in the fourth quarter last year.
一季度住宿和餐飲業(yè)同比增長13.6%，與去年四季度下降5.8%形成鮮明對比。

 

Market vitality increased, with railway and air passenger volumes up 67.7 percent and 68.9 percent, respectively, in the first quarter compared to the same period in 2022.
市場活力趨于增強，一季度鐵路、民航客運量同比分別增長67.7%和68.9%。

 

Tuesday's data also showed retail sales of consumer goods went up 5.8 percent year on year in the first quarter, reversing a decline of 2.7 percent in the final quarter of last year.
4月18日的數據還顯示，一季度，社會消費品零售總額同比增長5.8%，上年四季度為下降2.7%。

 

"These improvements show domestic demand has gradually expanded and consumer expectations have improved," Fu said.
付凌暉指出，這些增長顯示出國內需求逐步擴大，消費預期有所改善。

 

Other data showed that the value-added industrial output increased by 3 percent year on year in the first three months, and fixed-asset investment went up 5.1 percent year on year in the first quarter, according to the NBS.
國家統計局的其他數據顯示，一季度，規(guī)模以上工業(yè)增加值同比增長3%，固定資產投資同比增長5.1%。

 

Looking ahead, Fu said growth in the second quarter is likely to be significantly faster than in the first quarter.
展望未來，付凌暉指出，二季度經濟增速可能比一季度明顯加快。

 

But due to high comparison bases, growth might be slower in the third and fourth quarters than in the second quarter, Fu said. The economic growth throughout the year will likely trend upward without considering the base effect.
付凌暉稱，三、四季度隨著基數的升高，增速會比二季度有所回落。如果不考慮基數影響，總的來看全年經濟增長有望呈現逐步回升態(tài)勢。

 

China has set a GDP growth target of around 5 percent for 2023. The International Monetary Fund last week projected that China's economy would grow 5.2 percent in 2023.
我國2023年的國內生產總值增長目標為5%左右。國際貨幣基金組織上周預測，2023年中國經濟可能將增長5.2%。
