彭庆杰在2003年1月30日《中国青年报》上撰文指出,继个剐经济实力较强的省市提出提前全面实现小康后,有不少地方的领导也不切实际地仿而效之,好像不“提前”、不“赶超”就显得没有雄心大志似的。有的地方喊出“30至50年赶上美国”的响亮口号;有的大城市提出“争取提前三五年实现全面小康目标”。老百姓看了这些不切实际的消息并不欢欣鼓舞。 Peng Qingjie said in an article published in the “China Youth Daily” on January 30, 2003 that following the announcement by a number of provinces and cities with relatively strong economic power that they should fully realize their well-to-do life in advance, there are quite a lot of local leaders who illegally imitate and follow suit. Does not seem to “early ”, not “catch up” does not seem ambitious. Some places shouted loud slogans of “catching up with the United States in 30 to 50 years.” Some big cities have proposed that they “strive for the goal of achieving an overall well-to-do life ahead of schedule in 35 or 35 years.” People read these unrealistic news is not rejoicing.
