BANGKOK -- Trade recovery will allow developing Asia-Pacific countries, excluding China, to grow by 4.6% this year -- faster than the 4.4% they managed in 2023 -- despite China's economy moderating to 4.5% from last year's 5.2%, the World Bank said in an economic report released on Monday.
Developing Asia includes China, Mongolia, Timor-Leste and the 10 members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
