Chapter 1114 A turbulent world
The economy in 2002 is not optimistic!
The US economy has many hidden worries. Except for the booming development of the war-related sectors, the unemployment rate in other areas remains high, corporate profits continue to decline, prices rise, and inflation rises sharply. The Fed's anti-recession measures have inflated the US economic bubble to a certain extent, and a new round of crisis is brewing.
International oil prices are unstable and have risen overall. Compared with the international oil prices before 2001, they have doubled. The panic of a new round of terrorist attacks is not conducive to the recovery of the US economy.
The successive disclosure of corporate fraud scandals has further hit the confidence of the US economy. The reputation of the best investment in the United States has been damaged. The Dow Jones Index fell below 8,000 points, the Nasdaq fell below 1,300 points, and the US dollar fell sharply. The wealth of the American people has shrunk significantly, the banking system is in crisis, foreign capital inflows have decreased, and the economy has been damaged. Pessimists believe that the US economic downturn will continue for three or four years.
The Japanese economy is trapped in a vicious cycle. Stock and land prices continue to fall, deflation intensifies, corporate debts increase, and GDP continues to show negative growth. The depreciation of the US dollar has led to the appreciation of the yen, which has made the Japanese economy even worse.
The eurozone economy is not optimistic either. European countries such as France, Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom have experienced slow growth or even negative growth.
The entire Latin American economy has shown negative growth, and some countries have even experienced debt crises. For example, Mexico has only had good days for two years. Now the social order has collapsed, a group of warlords have emerged, and the war has already ignited in Mexico.
From a global perspective, regional integration continues to develop, the total amount of global foreign investment inflows has dropped sharply, trade protectionism has further risen, and the proportion of the US dollar in the international settlement system has further declined.
ASEAN + China regional economic integration has come into view, and Northeast Asia economic integration has also appeared in public opinion for more than a year.
To the southwest of China, with the construction of railways and the improvement of transportation, South Asia + China regional economic integration may also appear in the future. The only obstacle now is India.
To the west of China is Central Asia. The economic and trade exchanges between the five Central Asian countries and China have further increased, and the exchanges between the two sides in politics, military, economy, culture, and technology are becoming closer.
To the north, the total trade volume between China and Russia has further increased. Russia has become one of the important sources of China's oil and natural gas imports, and also one of the sources of raw material imports. Every year, a large amount of iron ore, copper ore, and timber are exported to China. Russian soybeans, rice, etc. are also exported to China in large quantities. Sausages, honey, and aquatic products from Russia are also one of the focuses of bilateral trade.
China's motorcycles, cars, refrigerators, air conditioners, computers, mobile phones, and televisions are exported to Russia in large quantities.
The two sides have reached a cooperation in Vladivostok, which has enabled Heilongjiang Province to have an outlet to the sea and can join the global trade through sea trade.
The main force in maintaining globalization is not the United States or Europe, but China.
China's second aircraft carrier formation has ended its global friendly visit, which has caused a huge response around the world. Many countries believe that this is a manifestation of the enhancement of world peace forces.
New Year's Day.
Liu Tao is holding an award ceremony in the auditorium of Panshan Group headquarters.
The participants of the conference are representatives from Panshan Hospital.
There are now 40 Panshan hospitals in the whole of China. In addition to Kunming, which is the Panshan Hospital Headquarters, there are 39 Panshan hospitals in other provinces and cities.
As a pilot unit for medical reform, Panshan Hospital has been implementing both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine from the beginning, exploring the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment, and has achieved fruitful results in medical and health care in the past 20 years.
At the same time, Panshan Hospital has been constantly reforming itself. It introduced computer office work very early, and Panshan Hospital was also the first to achieve Internet access. Now a Panshan medical card can be used in 40 Panshan hospitals across the country, and relevant information, including the examinations, can be read directly through the Panshan medical card.
In terms of remote diagnosis, Panshan Hospital was also the first to explore.
In terms of pharmaceutical research and development, disease research, and treatment methods, Panshan Hospital has achieved fruitful results.
This has also led to the fact that the medical major of Southwest Associated University has always ranked first in the country.
This time, Liu Tao attended the commendation conference because he commended the representatives of Panshan Hospital system who performed well in the public health emergency. Among these representatives, there are medical staff who are fighting on the front line and those who have made outstanding contributions in solving this public health incident.
This is a commendation for the Panshan system, and then representatives will be selected to participate in the national commendation.
Liu Tao issued certificates to these representatives, encouraged them to continue to work hard, and then took a group photo as a commemoration.
Finally, Liu Tao hosted a banquet for these representatives.
In this public health emergency, a group of people and deeds that are worthy of praise and tears emerged, and it was also an exercise for the ability of social organizations.
A group of leaders who were incompetent were punished, and a group of outstanding and capable people were promoted.
This is also the first time that China has been tested nationwide since the establishment of a nationwide emergency response system for public health emergencies in 1995.
This time, the people of the whole country and various systems across the country united and overcame the crisis in just one month.
On New Year's Day, in Europe, Vienna New Year's Concert!

The screams of terror, the panic of the audience, people pushing people everywhere, some people fell and were stepped on.
In the passage.
"Boom~~"
Another explosion, many people who were fleeing were killed and injured.
The three explosions directly dyed this year's Vienna New Year's Concert bloody and bloody.
The police station that received the alarm was in chaos.
No one expected that such a large and vicious explosion would happen on the first day of the New Year in 2003.
And it happened at the Vienna New Year's Concert!
Those who can attend the Vienna New Year's Concert cannot be ordinary people, they can be said to be either rich or noble!
The whole of Vienna was in chaos, and Vienna dispatched the anti-terrorist special forces, and the fully armed soldiers quickly went out.
