And if a GDP growth above 6.3 percent is maintained— which will raise nominal GDP to $14.93 trillion and per capita GDP to $10, 600— China will have a better chance of doubling its GDP and per capita income by 2020 from the 2010 level, which are vital to building a moderately well-off society by 2020.
