SHANGHAI: Shanghai has set a gross domestic product (GDP) growth target of above 5.5% for 2023 and experts say the fulfillment of this “achievable goal” will support China’s sustainable development in the long term.
Mayor Gong Zheng announced the goal while delivering the municipal government work report at the ongoing first session of the 16th Shanghai Municipal People’s Congress, the city’s legislature.
