"Most of their targets have been achieved for 2018, and of course the country can achieve its targets this year to benefit the Chinese people. On international cooperation, the Chinese government is not just focusing on its domestic market, but also the international market with closer relationships with other countries, evidenced by the Belt and Road Initiative."

"I have found it very impressive and informative. As a foreigner, I could get an in-depth overview of the work of the Chinese government. Its description of the Belt and Road Initiative has really impressed me. I am really upbeat to know that the Chinese government will step up global cooperation under the initiative, which can bring good news for Bangladesh too."

Bilal Sabri Ahmed, journalist from Pakistan

"I'm very impressed by the Government Work Report. President Xi Jinping is moving China toward success and is leading the country very well. The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is already underway. The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a big part of BRI. The project aims to alleviate poverty and boost employment. About 700,000 jobs will be generated by the CPEC project."

"The Government Work Report is very comprehensive. It covers all sectors of the country and all of the measures and issues. The report has highlighted the major achievements made by the government.

What impressed me most is that China has managed to create over 13 million jobs for the citizens. And also plans to enact the Foreign Investment Law.

China has made positive progress in the past year. China has been able to create more jobs and reduce poverty. The innovation made by China is also great. China has reached the far side of the moon, which is a big achievement. China has also opened up its market to the international community."
