Features: This report is a non-confidential summary of the interim findings on research into China's national policies, national conditions, and national strength. The study fully takes into account the series of new changes that have occurred since China's economy and society entered a new strategic critical period. It conducts an in-depth analysis of cyclical and regular content, and on this basis, combined with the comprehensive launch of the 11th Five-Year Plan, the research team dynamically organizes policy viewpoints, data, and other related content. Related achievements will continue to be released. Starting from the breakthrough of per capita GDP to $1,000, we gain the qualification to discuss national strength. But we must be more cautious in measuring our physical strength in comparison with powerful nations. From the moment we joined the WTO, we entered another "rich club," and the "game" of a series of numbers began here. Using data to outline the profiles of China's interest groups under the impact of economic; using data to analyze lifestyle differences in China's urban-rural comparison; using data to deepen the comparison of social structures in regional interaction and integration. This is the magic of the "Treasure Trove of Data" in the "China National Strength Report 2005."
