competitors, foreign-invested enterprises can shorten the amount of time needed to gain access to the Chinese market. They can attract a number of technically and managerially talented people who worked in the state-owned enterprises, as well as the market, the resources of their partners and support from the government. What’s more important, they can convert their competitors into partners and become more competitive.
As for the foreign-funded enterprises, it’s necessary for them to stick to the principle of “contacting, cooperating and developing” if they want to turn these measures into substantial yields. They should express sincerity for cooperation in the contract, achieve complementary advantages in the cooperation and remove the risks in investment through development. Only when they attain full contact, in-depth communication and understanding, and sincere cooperation can they realize mutual development. To develop is the best means for us to diminish the risks and realize a win-win situation. To carry out the development strategies made by the CPC central committee and the State Council to revitalize the old industrial bases in northeast China, the Ministry of Commerce and the three northeastern provinces in China have put forward some tentative policies after carrying out much investigation and research. At present, the Ministry of Commerce is working out some specific measures in collaboration with relevant departments and the three provincial governments in northeast China. It’s believed that these measures will facilitate the economic development of northeast China.
In conclusion, I wish the forum complete success.
14.4 西部经贸洽谈会开幕式致辞
尊敬的张省长、尊敬的各位来宾、女士们、先生们：
我很高兴今天上午来这里参加中国西部经贸洽谈会的开幕式。我要感谢四川省人民政府盛情邀请我参加这次重要会议。来自北京市政府和12个省政府的领导人将再次汇集并讨论中西部发展战略。
这次洽谈会体现了中国政府和人民对发展西部地区的郑重承诺。***在支持政府提出的西部发展目标方面，不仅国有经济部门表现出巨大的热情和决心，私有经济部门也体现了日益增长的兴趣，这给我留下了深刻的印象。
虽然对外开放十分重要，但是中国的未来更主要取决于国内市场的增长。从长远来看，政府加快西部省份发展所做的努力对于中国取得可持续发展是至关重要的。***西部省份发展速度的落后程度将会制约整个经济的增长。西部省份贫困率较高，其发展能带来就业机会，有助于减少贫困和普遍存在的不平等问题。
*** 世界银行集团的使命在于优先解决由增长、贫困、不平等带来的一系列问题。过去20几年里，我们提供了80亿美元，资助中国西部省份的100个项目。世界银行集团的私有经济部门——国际金融公司（IFC）一向积极支持西部地区的私有经济投资。IFC已经在中国40个项目中投资了10亿美元以上，这些投资中近20%在中国西部。
这些投资活动在支持国内私有经济（增长）和促进外商直接投资方面起到了重要作用。世界银行和IFC将继续支持政府和私有部门加快西部发展。令人鼓舞的是，各种变革因素正汇聚起来促进私有经济的发展，使之成为推动中国落后地区发展的新引擎。
我此次访华的目的是对中国最近的经济发展进行评估，并与政府高层领导人探讨世界银行集团在中国加入WTO后对中国的援助战略。两天前我先去了西部省份云南，今天我来到了四川。我亲眼目睹了世界银行集团支持政府和私有经济部门发展西部的诸多事例。当然也有一些巨大的挑战不容忽视，包括继续努力创造和改善商务环境，在维持社会公平和环境可持续发展

的前提下获得发展。但是我相信我们能应对这些挑战。
最后，我要感谢四川省政府对世界银行和IFC的支持。我们期待着与各位合作，共同促进中国西部的发展和该地区人民生活的改善。
14.5 “中国西部人力资源开发国际研讨会”开幕词 主席先生、尊敬的来宾、女士们、先生们：
我很高兴在此次中国西部人力资源开发国际研讨会上发言。
几天前，北京奥申委的精彩陈述给我们留下了深刻的印象。整个世界在电视中看到的中国由现代办公楼、商业街、衣着时尚人士及经济成果的神话构成。此次会议所在的这座豪华大酒店就是中国形象的一个典型例子。但是，我们当中那些已经走遍了中国很多地区的人知道，这并不是中国的完整写照。
人们可以列举很多方面来突出沿海地区与内容地区的差异。例如，90年代东部沿海地区的经济增长率比内陆地区高出30个百分点；内陆省份的人均GDP还不足沿海地区的一半；82%的外资企业落址于东部沿海地区；位于内陆地区的外资企业只占6%的外贸额。
区域发展不平衡的局面促使我们加快开发内陆省份的步伐。中国政府的西部开发战略将加速西部地区的发展，进一步深化改革开放。亚洲开发银行欢迎并且支持这一战略决策。 现在我想花几分钟时间介绍亚洲开发银行目前在促进西部开发方面的举措。亚洲开发银行对中国的运营战略旨在推动可持续的、扶贫型的经济发展，以消除贫困、提高生产力和人民的生活水平。
自1986年开始运作以来，亚洲开发银行累计给中国贷款100亿美元。中国也很好地运用了这些贷款。各种项目如期或者提前上马，并基本实现预定目标。
亚洲开发银行的工作中心在地理位置上发生了重大的转变。1986年至1995年间，我们的贷款约有三分之二是用于支持东部沿海项目，只有三分之一用于内陆省份的项目。中国政府和亚洲开发银行都制定了目标，要加快这些较为贫困的内陆省份的发展。
良好的人力资源有助于更好地管理投资和吸引更多投资商来到西部。因此，人力资源开发已经成为实施“到西部去”政策的重中之重。内陆地区的廉价劳动力资源十分丰富。然而，高端人才和管理人员却匮乏。
西部地区面临许多挑战。亚洲开发银行的体会是内陆省份的制度和人力资源都比沿海弱。这个问题不解决，将阻碍该地区的社会和经济发展。亚洲开发银行已经承诺将70%的援助力量用于内陆省份，因为这里的经济发展缓慢，贫困现象比比皆是。但是加快西部开发能否成功取决于它吸收能力的大小。这也需要通过制度和人力资源开发来加强。
亚洲开发银行正与国务院西部开发办公室共同着手于一个技术扶持项目，以加快西部地区的人力资源开发。其工作重心是发展规划及项目财政管理领域的能力建设和人力资源开发。 亚洲开发银行将与西部开发办公室及亚洲开发银行机构共同发展此项目。主要的投入包括提供咨询服务、举办一次国际会议、开展国内研讨会和培训活动。
主席先生，女士们，先生们，最后我想重申的是，亚洲开发银行将有力地支持中政府加速开发西部地区的战略决策。
