2008年中国经济与1998年相似之处在于其经济增长放慢,生产性投资下降,失业正接近临界点,出口潜在阻力增大,货币流通速度放缓且物价指数呈现回落趋势。经济增长率、投资、失业、进出口、物价甚至消费都不排除一轮通货膨胀之后中国面临通货紧缩的危险。应对的政策也有类似,全力保经济增长成为了政府2008下半年的首要任务。 In 2008, the Chinese economy was similar to 1998 in that its economic growth slowed down, its productive investment plummeted, its unemployment rate was approaching the critical point, potential export resistance increased, currency circulation slowed down and the price index showed a downward trend. Economic growth, investment, unemployment, import and export, prices and even consumption do not rule out the danger of deflation after a round of inflation. Policy responses are similar, and efforts to ensure economic growth have become the government's top priority in the second half of 2008.
