List of GDP data of 31 provinces last year: the top ten remained unchanged, and Chongqing surpassed Tianjin.
As of January 27, 2018, the economic data of 31 provinces in 2017 have all been released, and the ranking of GDP and growth rate has also been clearly presented.
The Paper combed the statistics and found that compared with the same period in 2016, the top ten provinces in GDP last year did not change, and Chongqing surpassed Tianjin in ranking.
In terms of GDP growth, Guizhou and Tibet continue to lead the country with double-digit growth rates, while Tianjin’s growth rate has dropped sharply, while Liaoning’s growth rate has turned from negative to positive.
In 2017, Guangdong and Jiangsu ranked in the top two in the country with a total GDP of more than 8 trillion yuan, and the provinces ranked third to tenth were Shandong, Zhejiang, Henan, Sichuan, Hubei, Hebei, Hunan and Fujian. This ranking is consistent with that in 2016.
After Fujian, Shanghai’s GDP last year also exceeded 3 trillion yuan, reaching a new level.
Liaoning did not fall as predicted before. Last year, Liaoning’s GDP totaled 2,394.2 billion yuan, still ranking 14th in the country.
Up to now, the total GDP data of last year has not been released in Inner Mongolia. However, according to the 4%GDP growth rate announced by Inner Mongolia, it is difficult for the total GDP of Inner Mongolia to exceed 2 trillion yuan last year, and it will not be able to keep the 16th place in the country in 2016.
On the other hand, in 2017, the ranking of Chongqing’s total GDP has advanced. In 2017, Chongqing achieved a regional GDP of 1,950.027 billion yuan, which was 90.489 billion yuan more than Tianjin’s total GDP of 1,859.538 billion yuan last year. It is inevitable to overtake Tianjin in ranking.
In fact, in 2016, the total GDP of Chongqing has approached Tianjin. After the revision, the total GDP of Chongqing in 2016 was 1,774.059 billion yuan, and that of Tianjin in 2016 was 1,788.539 billion yuan, with a gap of only 14.48 billion yuan.
Tianjin’s growth rate declined, and Liaoning turned from negative to positive.
From the perspective of GDP growth rate, among the 31 provinces, a total of 8 provinces’ GDP growth rate last year was lower than the national GDP growth rate, including Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Northeast China. Tianjin’s GDP growth rate has dropped sharply, from 9% in 2016 to 3.6%, and it is now tied with Gansu.
This number has increased compared with 2016. In 2016, only Heilongjiang, Shanxi and Liaoning provinces were lower than the national GDP growth rate.
However, Liaoning’s GDP growth rate achieved positive growth last year, which is the best result since "squeezing water" in 2015.
According to the data of the work report of Liaoning provincial government in 2018, according to preliminary accounting, the regional GDP of Liaoning province last year was 2,394.2 billion yuan, up 4.2% over the previous year. Since 2011, the situation of one-way decline in economic growth has changed.
Last year, the top two GDP growth rates were Guizhou and Tibet, both of which achieved double-digit growth. Last year, Chongqing’s GDP growth rate dropped below double digits for the first time in 10 years, but it still ranked fourth in the country after Guizhou, Tibet and Yunnan with a growth rate of 9.3%.
Guizhou, Tibet, Chongqing, Yunnan, Jiangxi, Anhui and Fujian, which were among the top ten growth rates in 2016, remained on the list this year, while Tianjin, Henan and Hubei were squeezed out of the top ten. Sichuan, Hunan and Shaanxi have entered the top ten GDP growth rates, with GDP growth rates above 8%, all of which are central and western provinces.
