(Xinhua)
Updated: 2009-09-22 10:56 MANILA: The overall economic expansion of developing Asia this year is expected to rise to 3.9 percent, sustained by the region's larger economies like China and India, the Asian Development Bank said in a report released Tuesday.
The Philippines-headquartered development bank said Asia's resilience is more remarkable as a deeper contraction of 3.7 percent is expected in the G3 economies -- the United States, the Euro zone and Japan -- this year. |
