EP 154 - Will China Leave Behind Its Economic 'Woes' In 2024? @ORFDelhi

ANI Podcast with Smita Prakash

China has set an ambitious 5% GDP growth target for 2024 and vowed to 'transform' the economy. Beijing has signalled that stability and transforming its economy will continue to be a priority. This comes at a time when China's economy has performed weaker than expected post-pandemic.

This episode of the ANI Podcast with Smita Prakash was recorded at the Raisina Dialogue in New Delhi in February 2024. The expert panel examines where China's economy is headed in 2024. What are the growth prospects and challenges ahead for Xi Jinping's government?

The expert panel for "The Year of the Dragon" includes Jorge Quiroga, Former President of Bolivia; Noah Barkin, Senior Advisor, China Practice, Rhodium Group, USA; Philippe Le Corre, Senior Fellow, Asia Society Policy Institute, France; Velina Tchakarova, Founder, FACE, and Visiting Fellow, Observer Research Foundation, Austria.

The panel will evaluate the state of China's economy and whether it is still making friends across the world or not. Does it inspire the same confidence in investors that it did pre-pandemic? How is Beijing's influence projected to evolve globally, particularly in regions like Russia and Latin America? Will it expand or diminish in the upcoming year?
