Growing Pains

16 August 2010, Japan released it’s second quarter’s GDP data. Japan's second-quarter unadjusted GDP totaled $1.2883 trillion on a nominal dollar basis, against China's second-quarter unadjusted GDP of $1.3369 trillion. This underscored expectations that China will overtake Japan as the world's second-largest economy this year. For the past two weeks, the line that “China will overtake or has overtaken Japan to become the world’s second largest economy” has made media headlines worldwide. Statistics may have made China the world’s second biggest economy, but what is people’s life like in China? BON’s Hattie Zhao has her report.

China's Economic Climb

Some recent financial data has caused a certain amount of excitement over the current state of China's economy. And it's not just in China where people have been taking note. Those in the US could also be eyeing China's growth nervously.

Move over Japan. Here comes China. The most populous country in the world is on course to overtake Japan this year as the world's second largest economy. According to preliminary figures, China's GDP in 2009 reached four point nine trillion dollars, up nearly 9 percent year-on-year. Even though Japan's GDP figure won't be released until next month, the outlook for China seems promising.
