"China has contributed around 30 percent of the world's economic
growth," Xu Shaoshi, chairman of the National Development and
Reform Commission (NDRC), said at the World Economic Forum (WEF),
the Swiss-based corporate think-tank which runs the Davos summit
of world leaders.
The speech at the forum in Dalian was broadcast online.
The world's second-largest economy grew 7 percent in the first
half from a year earlier - in line with the government's target
for 2015, but recent downbeat data has raised the risk the
government could miss its full-year growth target.
Some analysts believe current growth is already much weaker than
official figures suggest.
