China NPC: More ‘Development,’ ‘Growth’ and ‘Military,’ Less ‘Work’ and ‘Justice’
Up this year in China: tax, growth and adjustment. No, not in percentage terms. Instead, these are words that Premier Li Keqiang used in the Work Report for 2016 that he delivered on Saturday.
Compared with last year’s report, Mr. Li mentioned “work,” “justice” and “corruption” less in his annual address.
Some of the biggest year-to-year changes in the words chosen dealt with the economy. The word “develop” saw a particularly large jump, from 186 mentions last year to 211 this year. Develop, including derivations like developing, were among the most-often mentioned words in Mr. Li’s speech, according to a China Real Time tally.
