There is a drop from 9.5 percent in the first quarter to 9.1 in the third quarter along the curve of China's GDP growth this year. The decline, experts argue, is reflective of what is called the new concept of development. The normal idea is called circular economy. A look set to change the mode of China's economic growth. Reducing the alleged overheating may also help promote the efficiency of energy consumption which has prevented the economy from prospering to the maximum. Farmers' livelihoods and macro-control among other issues topped the agenda of the new government in 2004.
