annotated bibliography for earthquake in China

In “Title” by Author, the author argues that the earthquake happened in China would undoubtedly impact China’s economy in a negative way in a short-term, as some of the nation’s largest companies were damaged by the earthquake. And the need for donations and relief aid were not met. Furthermore, Sichuan relies its economy heavily on the natural resources produced, which were also affected adversely, which drives the costs of the products higher. The author says that Sichuan is not a major economic core of the country, and although these negative affect will take a toll on the Chinese economy in a short-term, there wouldn’t be a profound long-term effect on the country’s economy in general, because the growth rate the earthquake is estimated to take away is nominal. In addition, local transportation system had little effect, and the agricultural sectors weren’t’ hurt on a large scale.
