World Bank projects growth in the East Asia and Pacific region to continue to slow to 6.3% in 2016 from a slightly less-than-expected 6.4% in 2015. Growth in China is forecasted to ease further to 6.7% in 2016 from 6.9% in 2015. Growth in the region excluding China was 4.6% in 2015, broadly unchanged from 2014, as weaker growth in commodity exporters, including Indonesia and Malaysia, was offset by growth acceleration in Vietnam and moderate recovery in Thailand.
