Premier Li Keqiang has said that China can achieve economic growth of around 7.5 percent this year. He told officials and business leaders at a economic and technological cooperation forum in Berlin that China can keep its economic growth rate within a “reasonable range”.

He said the range will depend on the employment rate, household income, as well as quality and efficiency. He also reaffirmed Beijing’s commitment to an opening-up policy, saying that China will open up to the outside world in a more active manner, on even deeper and higher levels.
