The Chinese economy could face even greater downward pressure and an even more complicated situation next year, Premier Li Keqiang said on Wednesday.

The Premier made the remarks during a meeting with government secretaries-general, as well as general office administrators nationwide, in Beijing.

The country has attained its main goals and targets for growth this year, and government general offices nationwide have done a great deal of arduous and effective work and played an irreplaceable role, he said.

He urged governments at various levels to adhere to the new development philosophy, shore up their confidence and cope with the challenges next year.

Premier Li underscored the importance of coordinating efforts to stabilize growth, promote reform, adjust structure, benefit public livelihood, prevent risks and ensure stability to maintain major indicators of the economy within an appropriate range.

Government general offices, as the hub of the administrative system, have a key role to play, he said.

The Premier called upon officials to serve the people, think in big-picture terms, assume their responsibilities and tackle problems squarely.

It is important for them to guard their due bottom lines and ensure the implementation of various policies and reform measures with all resilience, Li said.
