China economy structure 'not going to last'

China has just released its second quarter GDP figures, and they are down from 7.7% to 7.5% - but that is in line with the government's growth target.

China has said it expects the economy to cool as it attempts to refocus from an export-led economy towards a consumer-led economy.

Qian Liu, the deputy director of the China forecasting service at the Economist Intelligence Unit, told the Today programme: "The Chinese government realise that the current structure of the Chinese economy is not going to last in the long term."
