世行預測亞太地區經濟增長放緩

The World bank has issued a report predicting an economic growth slowdown in Asia this year.

Monday's report said economic grown in the Asia - Pacific region may slow down by a full percentage point, from 8.2 percent in 2011 to 7.2 percent this year, before recovering to 7.6 percent in 2013.

The new report also says that weak exports and lower investment growth will cut China's GDP growth from 9.3 percent in 2011 to 7.7 percent this year. However, the bank said it expects China's growth to rebound to 8.1 percent as the impact of stimulus measures kicks in.

The World Bank said policy makers in the East Asia and Pacific region will have to continue managing growth and reducing poverty in an environment that will remain volatile.世界銀行發佈了一份報告，預計今年亞洲經濟增長將放緩。

這份星期一發布的報告說，亞太地區今年的經濟增長率將下跌一個百分點，從2011年的8.2%下降到7.2%，但將於2013年反彈到7.6%。

世行新公佈的報告還說，出口疲軟和投資增長放緩將使中國的GDP增長率從2011年的9.3%下降到今年的7.7%。不過世界銀行說，隨着中國的刺激經濟增長措施見效，預計中國的經濟增長將回升到8.1%。

世界銀行說，東亞和太平洋地區的決策者仍將在一個不穩定的環境中繼續努力推動經濟增長和減少貧困。
