So if you know any please list them here along with the number. It's only for 2nd quarter 2009 and only positive numbers allowed that is to say only countries that reported positive GPD growth in the 2nd quarter that are to be listed. Let's see which is which shall we?
-Singapore 20.0%. I found this number absurd though. If it's true that means this country's economy is as sensitive as a homemade low explosive bomb. Or it's among the hardest hit by the crisis.
-China 7.9%
-India 7.6%
-Egypt 4+%
-Hongkong 5+%. Well technically not a country but maybe worth mentioning
-Indonesia 2+% Which never see contracting economy(along with a few other nations such as China and India) since the global crisis made its presence felt though growth has declined by more than two third.
-South Korea 2.3%
-Israel 1.0%
-Japan 0.9%
-France 0.3%
-German 0.3%
-Poland xx%(unknown) but a good candidate to see positive 2nd quarter growth after it saw positive growth in the first quarter(0.8%).
I know there's no guarantee that these countries will see continuous positive growth in the subsequent quarters but still it's interesting to note that a few countries have had a wind of change which is best noted with their positive GDP growth from contraction in the previous quarters.
