China's economy is sustaining ~30% of global economic growth, with domestic consumption now driving nearly half of its expansion. The shift from export-dependent to consumption-led growth, combined with renewable energy cost reductions (reaching sub-60% levels over a decade) and rising innovation rankings, positions China as a critical economic stabilizer. This resilience matters for Thai SMEs: supply chain stability, market access to Chinese demand, and tech ecosystem integration are increasingly dependent on China's domestic strength amid global trade tensions and geopolitical uncertainties.
