China's GDP growth rate in the first quarter of 2024 beat market expectations to reach 5.3 percent. What help China maintain its strong economic growth? And what can be learned? Erik Solheim, former Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations　shared his observation in this regard.

      According to Solheim, China has an industrial ecosystem which is unmatched in the world, and a highly educated working class. This is largely lacking both in the West and in the developing nations.

      “我国经济正在由高速增长阶段转向高质量发展阶段，要坚持以推动高质量发展为主题，坚持把发展经济着力点放在实体经济上，这些都需要上市公司和行业领先企业践行ESG理念。”清华大学全球证券市场研究院院长、清华经管学院金融系教授杨之曙认为，构建以国内大循环为主体、国内国际双循环相互促进的新发展格局，关键是要将我国市场规模和生产体系的优势转化为参与国际合作和竞争的新优势，这些需要聚焦科技创新和ESG发展。

      近日，上海市民政局、上海市财政局、上海市市场监督管理局联合出台《关于推进上海市老年助餐服务高质量发展的实施意见》，记者从中获悉，各社区长者食堂对于上海市户籍老年人和常住上海市的外省市户籍老年人，给予同等优惠折扣，上海市户籍的人户分离老年人，按居住地标准享受补贴。这也意味着，上海养老助餐将实现“补贴跟人走”。（撰稿：蓝茜璧）
