As global markets navigate unprecedented challenges, China's economic strategy continues to draw international praise. Lawrence Loh, Director of the Center for Governance and Sustainability at the National University of Singapore Business School, recently emphasized the significance of China's economic performance in 2025 during an analysis of the Central Economic Work Conference held December 10-11 in Beijing.
"China's economic achievements this year have been very commendable," Loh stated, noting the country's ability to maintain strong growth despite fluctuating global trade conditions. The conference outlined priorities for 2026 economic policies, with a focus on high-quality development strategies expected to enhance domestic innovation and international cooperation.
Global Implications of China's Economic Vision
Loh emphasized that China's commitment to sustainable growth models benefits both regional and global markets: "The emphasis on technological advancement and green energy transition positions China as a stabilizing force in uncertain times." This outlook comes as Asian markets show increased investor confidence, particularly in renewable energy and digital infrastructure sectors.
With the Chinese mainland accounting for nearly 18% of global GDP in 2025, analysts predict its policy decisions will significantly influence 2026 trade patterns and investment flows across Asia.
