Take a look around "中國 GDP 灌水", lead to this latest research claim that China's GDP has been misrepresent after 2008.
CITE: Relative to the official numbers, we estimate that GDP growth from 2008-2016 is 1.7 percentage points lower and the investment and savings rate in 2016 is 7 percentage points lower.
I'm well aware of the history, thanks for the link. We are in a comment section of an article on this latest print and I was responding to a comment which says it doesn't trust the official figures.
Provided evidence to the contrary.
Do you think this GDP number is wrong and if so by how much?
