Comprehensive Strength of the National Economy Before the implementation of the reform and opening up policy, Guangdong Province only held an insignificant position in the national economy. The growth rate of main economic indicators was below the average level of the country. After 20 years of reform and opening up, Guangdong's economy has seen great development. GDP in Guangdong rose from 1978's RMB 18.585 billion yuan to 791.912 billion in 1998, 3 times more than that in 1978, with an annual growth rate of 14%. GDP per capita also increased from 369 yuan in 1978 to 11,143 yuan in 1998 at a 12.0% growth rate annually. Guangdong has jumped to be one of the most dynamic places in economic development in the country. Reform is to liberate and develop productive force. Compared with those in 1978, the total agricultural output in 1998 rose by 2.6 times, the total industrial output rose by 46.1 times, and the main industrial and agricultural products all saw great increase. In addition to steady growth, the output of fruit, meat and aquatic products all increased by a big margin. The electricity genera increased from 1978's 9.7 billion kilowatt-hours to 1998's 100.437 billion KWHs. Guangdong's standing in China's economy was heightened. By comparison, the proportion of Guangdong's GDP in China's total GDP increased from 5.1% in 1978 to 10% in 1998, ranking from the sixth place to the top. Other economic indicators also showed sustained growth. Economic Structure Since the reform and opening up policy was implemented, the industrial structure has been undergoing constant readjustment in the course of rapid growth of economy. The proportion of the agriculture, industry and services was 29.9 : 46.4 : 23.7 in 1978 and 12.7 : 50.4 : 36.9 in 1998. The Industrial Structure was Characterized by Light and Export-oriented Pattern. Those traditional pillar industries in Guangdong, such as sugar processing gradually gave way to new industries. Technological innovation and reform have been strengthened in building materials, textile and foodstuff processing industries, which resulted in fast development. Other light industries such as household electric appliances, electronics, pharmacy, toys, refined chemicals have prospered rapidly and given full play to the special features of Guangdong made products characterized by "high quality, small size, unique design and new varieties". At the same time, the export-oriented industries in Guangdong also saw considerable progress. The three kinds of enterprises with foreign investment have developed from the coastal areas to the inland area. Their position in the whole industry also increased. In 1998, the output value of those enterprises accounted for 39.9% of the total industrial output value in the province. The Service Industry has Developed Rapidly. In the past two decades, new industries such as transportation, telecommunication, financing and insurance, stock market, consulting service and travel service have all been growing fast. The Pearl River Delta, with Guangzhou and Shenzhen city at the core, has become a hub of South China in the fields of information, finance, transportation, telecommunication, trade, science and technology, culture and education. Remarkable Change has Taken Place in Ownership Structure of Businesses. With the efforts in the last 20 years, a new pattern of ownership structure has gradually come into being, with the state-owned economy keeping the mainstay and collectively-owned sector, wholly foreign owned enterprises, sino-foreign joint venture, stock-holding economy thriving. The original value of the fixed assets in the state-owned enterprises in the province rose from 9.605 billion yuan in 1978 to 179.091 billion in 1998, demonstrating an increase over 4 times. The total tax increased from RMB 2.609 billion yuan to 16.310 billion, rising by 5.3 times. The forms of the public ownership have also changed. Those enterprises of a mixed ownership represented by share-holding system saw rapid development. At the same time, the collectively owned economy in rural areas expanded on large scale with total revenue increased from 2.936 billion yuan in 1978 to 659.715 billion in 1998. Private, joint venture, and foreign-invested sectors all got healthy development. By the end of 1998, 57,665 "overseas-invested" enterprises had registered with the industrial and commercial administrations (AIC) in the province. Of all the output value in the province, that of the foreign invested, or invested by Hong Kong SAR, Macao SAR and Taiwan, China entrepreneurs accounted for 44.8%. Of the whole turnover the retail trade, that of the non-state owned sectors accounted for 64.6%. Reform on Commodity Circulation and Economic Structure Since the end of the 1970s, with reform on pricing as the breakthrough point, Guangdong has taken the lead in reforming on the whole economic structure. Reform on Pricing System As early as 1979, Guangdong government raised the grain price by a large margin, resumed the negotiated wholesale prices and lifted control over retail price. Guangdong was also the first in China to liberalize prices of some sidelined products such as pig, vegetable and aquatic products and some industrial products such as radio and bicycle. For heavy industrial products, a "double-pricing" system was adopted, which meant the prices of those listed in the development plan were set by the government, and the extra were subject to market regulation. From 1988 to 1992, the Province first adjusted the grain products pricing and then lifted all control, the pioneer of such practice in the country. Later on, the double-pricing mechanism for capital goods gradually gave way to market regulation. Reform on Macro Economic Control In the past ten years, Guangdong Province continuously pushed forward the reform on macro-control sectors such as planing, revenue and tax, investments and finance and governmental organizations, and other supporting reforms on social security, housing and medical insurance. As a result, market reform, enterprise reorganization, governmental shake-up and social security reform accelerated each other reciprocally. Especially from 1994, under the planning of the Central Government, Guangdong took many important measures in reforms on finance, taxation, foreign trade and foreign exchange structure. Foreign capital was invested in a wider range of field. The forms of foreign investment in Guangdong have changed from compensation trade, processing and assembling at the early stage to joint-venture, cooperative operation business and wholly foreign invested enterprises. In 1998, the foreign direct investment was US$ 12.020 billion, 79.6% of the total foreign investment in the Province. Investment in industry, which was always the bulk of foreign investment, saw decrease in the recent several years, from 77.5% in 1990 to 64.1% in 1998. Under the industrial policy of China, foreign investment gradually expanded to some infrastructural industry such as agriculture, transportation, and communication, and some tertiary industry as commerce, travel service, real estate and finance. The proportion of the latter has increased to 30% of the total investment. Of industries, that invested in electric power, petrochemical and new hi-tech industries also had big increase. The investment also extended from the coastal areas and the Pearl River Delta to the inland mountainous regions. Living Standards of the Urban, and Rural Residents With the unprecedented economic development in Guangdong during the last 20 years, the living standards of urban and rural residents were also improved. Income of Urban and Rural Residents In 1978, the yearly per capita net income of farmers in the province was under RMB 200 yuan and the dispensable income of urban residents was around 400. The two numbers reached 3,527 and 8,562 in 1998, 3.5 times and 2.7 times of increase if the price factor is not included, showing an annual growth rate of 7.8% and 7.0% respectively. The past 20 years is a period when people got most substantial benefits. Consumption Level and Structure The main trend was the decrease of the consumption on food and increase in clothing, daily necesseties and housing. In 1998, the consumption proportion on food of the urban residents and the farmers decreased from 66.6% and 61.7% in 1978 to 44.1% and 51.1% in 1998. Compared with 1978, The farmers' actual consumption volume of meat, poultry, fish, fresh eggs and edible oil annually were more than doubled, in which meat increased by 13.93 kg per capita, and fish, shrimps and other aquatic products by 8.52 kg. At the same time, the durable consumper goods owned by the people also increased by a large margin. In 1998, for every 100 urban and township families, there were 123.21 color TV sets, 78.59 refrigerators, and 97.05 washing machines. For every 100 rural families, there were 99.38 TV sets, 34.02 motorcycles, and 20.27 washing machines. Housing Condition The per capita housing space of the urban and township residents rose from 5.4 square meters in 1978 to 17.60 in 1998. The poorly-housed problem that many workers faced was improved. The per capita housing areas of farmers increased from 8.7 square meters to 24.83. Of the farmers' houses, the brick structure accounted for 37.4%, and that of the reinforced concrete structure took 53.4%. Quite many people in the Pearl River Delta built up elegant and new multi-story houses.
