China aims to see economic expansion at around 6.5 percent this year, according to the government work report released Monday. The projected economic expansion this year should also be within reach without much difficulty, according to Chinese economic observers. This judgment is based on the prospect that China is to enjoy a thriving year for consumption, a higher-quality growth and a further opening-up market, which are expected to make China continue its role of stabilizing the global economy.
