Presentation Transcript

  1. If a country wishes to modernize, not only should it implement a market economy, it must also adopt a parliamentary democracy as its political system. Otherwise, this nation will not be able to have a market economy that is healthy and modern, nor can it become a modern society with a rule of law. Instead it will run into the situations that have occurred in so many developing countries, including China: commercialization of power, rampant corruption, a society polarized between rich and poor. . . . Where is China heading towards? Can the entrenched state economy coexist with the rising market economy? What are the crucial linkages among the social, economic & political aspects of a transforming China? In what ways the socio-political transformations of China relate to us? Zhao Ziyang

  2. The 1.3 billion people of China are pressing ahead along the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics and working hard to raise the level of development and their own living standards. We will guide our overall economic and social development with a people-oriented and scientific approach of comprehensive, coordinated and sustainable development. . . . What are the major challenges & opportunities arising from China’s modernisation during the age of globalisation? How should local Hong Kong people manage their tie with the central government? What are the benefits & difficulties for our cooperation with southern China and its major cities? Hu Jintao

  3. I know that America and the world can benefit from trade with China, but only if China agrees to play by the rules and act as a positive force for balanced world growth. I want China’s economy to continue to grow, its domestic demand to expand and its vitality to contribute to regional and global prosperity. But China’s current growth is unbalanced. . . . What are the positive & negative impacts of globalisation & regional cooperation on the Chinese economy & industries? In what ways the internal & external contexts of China relate to us? Can our career development be related to the current & future development of China? Barack Obama
