We actively promoted energy and resources cooperation overseas, further expanded our assistances to other countries, and the pace of enterprises going global was accelerated. Further progress was made in the development of free trade zones, and in our economic dialogues with major trading partners and mutually beneficial cooperation with other developing countries.
各位代表！ 去年5月12日，我國發(fā)生震驚世界的汶川特大地震。在黨中央、國務院堅強領導下，全國各族人民特別是災區(qū)人民萬眾一心、眾志成城，人民子弟兵舍生忘死、沖鋒在前，展開了我國歷史上救援速度最快、動員范圍最廣、投入力量最大的抗震救災斗爭。
Fellow Deputies, a massive earthquake that shocked the world struck Wenchuan on May 12. Under the firm leadership of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, people of all ethnic groups in China, especially in the quake zone, worked as one and fought in unison against the earthquake disaster. The people’s army rushed to the frontlines without thinking of their own safety. We launched an earthquake rescue and relief operation that accomplished its work faster, mobilized more personnel and committed more resources than ever before in China’s history.
我們堅持把搶救人的生命放在第一位，從廢墟中搶救生還者8.4萬人。迅速搶修基礎設施，果斷處置唐家山堰塞湖，避免嚴重次生災害發(fā)生；全力開展防疫工作，實現(xiàn)了大災之后無大疫。
We steadfastly gave top priority to saving people’s lives. We pulled 84,000 survivors out of the rubble. We promptly repaired damaged infrastructure, and resolutely unblocked the Mount Tangjia quake lake to avert potential secondary disasters. We did our utmost to prevent an epidemic from occurring and ensured that there was no major outbreak of diseases after the deadly earthquake.
中央財政安排384億元救災款和740億元恢復重建資金，迅速出臺一系列支援災區(qū)的政策措施。積極開展對口支援。社會各界踴躍捐助款物，廣大香港同胞、澳門同胞、臺灣同胞以及海外華僑華人奉獻愛心，國際社會伸出援手，匯成了齊心協(xié)力抗擊災害的磅礴力量。
The central government allocated 38.4 billion Yuan for quake relief and 74 billion Yuan for post-earthquake recovery and reconstruction. We promptly introduced a host of policies and measures to support the quake zone. We energetically organized one-to-one assistance to designated areas affected by the earthquake. People from all sectors of society in China made generous donations, both in cash and in kind; our compatriots in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan as well as overseas Chinese contributed generously to the disaster relief campaign; and the international community provided us with earthquake rescue and relief assistance. All this combined to form a boundless source of strength for the Chinese people to overcome the disaster.
這場艱苦卓絕的抗震救災斗爭，涌現(xiàn)出無數(shù)感天動地、可歌可泣的英雄事跡，充分展現(xiàn)了中國人民不屈不撓、自強不息的偉大民族精神，譜寫了氣壯山河的壯麗篇章。
This hard struggle against the earthquake produced uncountable touching and brave exploits and fully demonstrated the great indomitable and unyielding spirit of the Chinese people, thus writing a heroic chapter in the history of the nation.
過去一年的成就來之不易。這是以胡錦濤同志為總書記的黨中央統(tǒng)攬全局、正確領導的結果，是全黨全軍全國各族人民同心同德、團結奮斗的結果。在這里，我代表國務院，向全國各族人民，向各民主黨派、各人民團體和各界人士，表示誠摯的感謝！向香港特別行政區(qū)同胞、澳門特別行政區(qū)同胞、臺灣同胞和海外僑胞，表示誠摯的感謝！向關心和支持中國現(xiàn)代化建設的各國政府、國際組織和各國朋友，表示誠摯的感謝！
None of the achievements we made last year came easily. They were the result of overall planning and correct leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Hu Jintao as General Secretary, as well as the concerted and strenuous efforts of the whole Party, the entire army and the people of all our ethnic groups. On behalf of the State Council, I hereby express our sincere gratitude to the people of all our ethnic groups and to the democratic parties, mass organizations and people from all sectors of society. I also express our sincere thanks to compatriots in the Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions and Taiwan and to overseas Chinese, as well as to foreign governments, international organizations and friends in other countries that take an interest in and support China’s modernization drive.
在肯定成績的同時，也要清醒地看到，我們正面臨前所未有的困難和挑戰(zhàn)。
While acknowledging our achievements, we must be clearly aware that we face unprecedented difficulties and challenges.
一是國際金融危機還在蔓延、仍未見底。國際市場需求繼續(xù)萎縮，全球通貨緊縮趨勢明顯，貿(mào)易保護主義抬頭，外部經(jīng)濟環(huán)境更加嚴峻，不確定因素顯著增多。
First, the global financial crisis continues to spread and get worse. Demand continues to shrink on international markets; the trend toward global deflation is obvious; and trade protectionism is resurging. The external economic environment has become more serious, and uncertainties have increased significantly.
二是受國際金融危機影響，經(jīng)濟增速持續(xù)下滑，已成為影響全局的主要矛盾。一些行業(yè)產(chǎn)能過剩，部分企業(yè)經(jīng)營困難，就業(yè)形勢十分嚴峻，財政減收增支因素增多，農(nóng)業(yè)穩(wěn)定發(fā)展、農(nóng)民持續(xù)增收難度加大。
Second, continuous drop in economic growth rate due to the impact of the global financial crisis has become a major problem affecting the overall situation. This has resulted in excess production capacity in some industries, caused some enterprises to experience operating difficulties and exerted severe pressure on employment. Factors leading to decline in government revenues and increase in government expenditures have increased. It has become more difficult to maintain steady agricultural development and keep rural incomes growing.
三是長期制約我國經(jīng)濟健康發(fā)展的體制性、結構性矛盾依然存在，有的還很突出。消費需求不足，第三產(chǎn)業(yè)發(fā)展滯后，自主創(chuàng)新能力不強，能源資源消耗多，環(huán)境污染重，城鄉(xiāng)、區(qū)域發(fā)展差距仍在擴大。
Third, institutional and structural problems that have long hindered healthy economic development still remain, and some of them are still prominent. Consumption demand is insufficient, and development of tertiary industries is sluggish. Our capacity for independent innovation is weak. Consumption of energy and other resources is high. Environmental pollution is serious. Disparities in development between urban and rural areas and between regions are widening.
四是一些涉及人民群眾切身利益的問題沒有根本緩解，社會保障、教育、醫(yī)療、收入分配、社會治安等方面存在不少亟待解決的問題。
Fourth, some problems affecting the vital interests of the people have not been fundamentally alleviated. There are still many problems demanding urgent solution in the areas of social security, education, health care, income distribution and public security.
五是市場秩序不規(guī)范，市場監(jiān)管和執(zhí)法不到位，社會誠信體系不健全。食品安全事件和安全生產(chǎn)重特大事故接連發(fā)生，給人民群眾生命財產(chǎn)造成重大損失，教訓十分深刻。
Fifth, order in the market is not well standardized; market oversight and law enforcement are not fully in place, and the social credit rating system is still in need of improvement. A number of serious and major incidents concerning food and workplace safety have occurred, which have inflicted serious loss of life and property on the people and taught us a sobering lesson.
我們一定要深刻認識國際國內(nèi)經(jīng)濟形勢的嚴峻性和復雜性，增強危機意識和憂患意識，充分利用有利條件，積極應對各種挑戰(zhàn)，努力做好各項工作，絕不辜負人民的期望和重托。
We need to thoroughly appreciate how serious and complex the international and domestic economic situations are, be more mindful of potential perils and crises, fully exploit favorable conditions and actively respond to all challenges so that we can successfully accomplish all our tasks and prove worthy of the great expectations and trust conferred on us by the people.
