At present, the economies of major developed countries have started showing results of policy stimulus measures, which will speed up the recovery of the world economy. Moreover, the Chinese economy is in the short-term adjustment phase, with fundamentals remaining steady, and both urban and rural incomes maintaining steady growth.

Hence, the year 2014 is likely to be beneficial to the development of the Chinese economy as well as its textile industry, according to industry analysts.
