A modest slowdown, if conducive to the long-term, stable development, is very good.

It should arouse concern, and actually has aroused our attention.

Frankly, I don't think this coincidence will happen again.

Prominent problems include a too prompt growth rate in fixed-asset investments and bank loans, which the country plans to adopt measures to tackle, as well as measures to ensure it keeps its steady economic growth.

as long as we continue to earnestly implement the government's macroeconomic control policies and perform solidly in the fourth quarter, then the long-term targets we set earlier this year will be realized.

It is fundamentally normal but it is at the upper end of the potential growth range and we need to take note of it.
