2 IV. V. 1 China s economic development in 2003 The year of 2003 was important yet unusual for China in its development, in which China achieved a great deal in the reform and opening up drives. China overcame all the difficulties caused by the outbreak of SARS epidemic and other severe natural disasters, and maintained a high economic growth of 9.1 per cent averaged for the year. GNP readings in that year rose over USD 1,400 billion, ranking the 6th of the world s largest economies, and its per capita GDP was past the milestone of USD 1,000.

Export and import increased substantially with a combined total of more than USD 850 billion, up by 37.1% over the same period of the previous year.

China s import from the rest of the Asian region increased by 42.2 per cent, including Japan (38.7 %), India (51.0%), South Korea (87%) and the ASEAN countries and regions (51.7 %), respectively. China is now a main trade partner with other Asian countries and regions. An accumulated total of USD 53.5 billion in foreign direct investment was channeled for actual use in the year of By the end of that same year the outstanding balance of foreign exchange reserves stood at USD billion and Renminbi remained stable. These achievements point to the all-time high in the national strength and capability. 2. Far East Economic Review 2 11

Worldwide Headquarters: 777 Third Avenue New York, NY (212) Ed Meyer, CEO Grey Global Group Grey Global Group: Grey Global Group has a celebrated history of excellence and innovation. Our success story began more than 85 years ago In 1917, Grey was a one-man, one-room shop. The one man was Larry Valenstein, who borrowed $100 from his mother to start a direct mail company, which he called Grey Studios. By 1925, he had already hired an ambitious assistant named Arthur Fatt and had acquired enough consumer accounts to necessitate a name change to Grey Advertising. They had no money, no 5 11

6 connections, no advanced education and no experience in the advertising business. They trusted their native wit, intelligence and street-smart savvy to generate ideas that would build business for their clients and, as a result, for them. Today, Grey has evolved from a one-client, one-room agency to an $12 billion communications powerhouse. Grey Global Group is the 7th largest communications company in the world, and each of its partner companies is focused on being best in class in its particular specialty. The entrepreneurial spirit and vitality that defined Grey s beginnings continues to characterize the steps we are taking to meet the demands of the new century. 5.
