BEIJING, March 14 (Xinhua) — China's marine economy is expected to reach nearly 11.02 trillion yuan (about 1.6 trillion U.S. dollars) in 2025, up 5.5 percent from 2024, according to data released by the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) on Friday.
According to the data, this figure amounted to 7.9 percent of the country's GDP, which is 0.1 percentage points more than in the previous year.
