我们有创新宏观调控的手段，可以稳定中国经济的运行。 we have innovative macro tools to maintain stability of growth
世界经济走势还不确定，不稳定的因素也在增加，但是我们有政策储备。 China had the policy reserves to handle headwinds from the global economic slowdown.
中国经济在发展过程当中，还会有小幅的、短期的波动 China’s economy will still face small and short-term swings
我们坚信只要坚持改革开放，中国的经济就不会“硬着陆”。 As long as we stick to reform and opening up, China’s economy will not see a hard landing
去年我们采取了一系列像降息、降准、定向降准等措施，这不是量化宽松 China’s pro-growth measures so far, including cuts in interest rates, should not be labelled as quantitative easing.
需要改革和完善我们的金融监管体系，要实现全覆盖，因为现在金融创新的产品很多，不能留下监管空白 China had to ensure full coverage of its financial system, as there were many innovative financial products and the country could not afford to leave any area uncovered.

我对两岸关系和平发展的前景是乐观的，我们之间的血脉是分不开的。 I remain optimistic about the prospect of cross-strait relations; blood ties cannot be severed

老有所养不会、也绝不能是一句空话。… Ensuring that the elderly will be provided for cannot and will not be an empty promise

中国现在实施的是养老金省级统筹 The pension scheme is managed by the provincial governments
可以给地方更多的自主权，让他们根据当地的实际情况，阶段性地、适当地下调“五险一金”的缴存比例是可以做的。Local governments can be given greater autonomy to make their own decisions in adjusting downward such contributions in keeping with their local conditions
