Anhui’s fixed-asset investment went up 16.2 percent year-on-year in the first four months this year, data from the Anhui Provincial Bureau of Statistics showed on Monday. The growth rate brought the eastern Chinese province to the 20th place in the country. The double-digit increase was driven by a low base of comparison early last year when the COVID-19 pandemic paralyzed economic activities in the country. The province’s fixed-asset investment rose 11.9 percent in the Jan-April period from the same period in 2019. Investment in the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors surge 56.1 percent, 14.6 percent and 16.2 percent, respectively. Investment in the mining industry increased 9.6 percent. The manufacturing sector posted a 14.5 percent increase in investment, and the power, heat, gas and water supply industries saw a 16.3 percent rise. Investment in infrastructure rose 13.5 percent in the Jan-April period, down 12.4 percentage points from the Jan-Mar period.
