is being carried out smoothly. Based on the 7.3% GDP growth in 2001 over the previous year, the GDP in 2002 increased by 8% over 2001 and in 2003, it witnessed another growth of 9.1% on a year-on-year basis. China's industrial and agricultural production as well as capital investment will stably grow, China's trade will continue to develop, the service trade will gradually open up and the general tariff level will be further lowered. All these provide excellent opportunities for the growth of economic and trade relationship between China and the EU. The Chinese government has attached great importance to the following areas in China's economy: to develop agriculture, rural economy and increase farmers' income, to continue with the expansion of domestic demands; to accelerate economic structural adjustment and push forward the western development and revitalization of Northeast China, a traditional industrial base in China; deepen the reform of economic system and regulate the market economy; open wider to the outside world; continue to implement the strategy of sustainable development; improve the administrative management system and deepen the institutional reform and etc. We believe that with the priority tasks to be fulfilled, China's economy will continue to develop smoothly this year, people's living standards will be improved, the society will keep its stability and China's external economic exchanges will further develop.

China and the EU should launch a high-level financial dialogue mechanism, expand exchanges
between their central banks on policies and deepen cooperation in preventing and managing financial crises and combating the financing of terrorism and money laundering. The Chinese side welcomes an expansion of China-related business by banks of the EU countries and hopes to see an appropriate settlement of the issue of Chinese financial institutions' access to the EU market.

In the meantime, Chinese enterprises will be strongly supported to raise funds in the EU's securities market.

Speaking about talented personnel, I think the most crucial factor is that we should build up a system in which talents flow freely. I don’t believe that China is short of the talented people; instead, there are many of them. Our problem is that many people have not been assigned to the jobs that may give full play to their talents. It’s like having many beautiful young ladies and handsome young men, but most of them remain single because they have no opportunities to meet and socialize with each other. To be honest, in our institutions or enterprises, many people thought an individual not an able person. But that was not the case, it was more likely that he had been assigned to a job that did not suit him at all. Actually, if he had been transferred to another post, he might have become a first-class talent.
With regard to the concept of talent and the personnel system, we sued to lay emphasis on personal

charisma. Now, the team spirit is more emphasized. I feel now we are much more open and permissive than before in terms of both the personnel system and the attitude towards different people, which I think is a positive change. If we call our society before the accession to the WTO a comparatively traditional one, we may call it a relatively modern society since our entry to the WTO. I think there is a great difference of principle between the two. In the past, a particular position might have been created for the sake of a particular person, but in the days to come, we may try to spot the particular person to fill an available position. If we say in the past we paid great attention to a person’s expertise in the selection process, maybe from now on we will pay much more attention to a person’s overall quality. 16.5
Ladies and Gentlemen:
? Good afternoon. I feel greatly honored to have this opportunity to discuss with you the issue
of CHina’s introduction of foreign capital. The statistics released by the Ministry of Commerce last week show that in 2004, China approved the establishment of 43,664 new foreign-funded enterprises, with a contractual foreign investment of US$ 60.63 billion. China has become the world’s second largest recipient of foreign investment.
? We will in our work centre on the principles and policies of our nation’s economic and social
development, adapt to the new situation of world economic development and stick to the principles of active, reasonable and efficient utilization of foreign capital. In absorbing foreign capital, we will try to follow the principle of the four “combines”. ? 1. Combine it with economic structural adjustment and industrial upgrading;
2. With the improvement of the socialist market economy system, and the reinforcement of enterprise competitiveness;
3. With the expansion of exports and development of an open economy; and
4. With the vigorous development of China’s western area, the rejuvenation of northeast China and the promotion of harmonious development of regional economies.
? We will take measures to further improve the soft environment for foreign investment,
actively explore new methods for absorbing foreign capital, put emphasis on absorbing advanced technologies, modern management and special talents, actively introduce foreign capital to invest in industries of new and advanced technologies, encourage multinational companies to set up regional headquarters, research and procurement centers here, speed up the development of supporting industries and open up the service trade field to foreign capital step by step. To achieve these ends, we will focus our efforts on the following two areas. ? 1. We will actively improved the policy and legal environment for foreign investment and the
level of administration according to law. To deliver our commitments on joining the WTO and meet the requirements of our opening-up process, we will further improve the legal system of absorbing foreign investment, keeping the policies and laws for foreign investment steady, consistent, predictable and operable. We will try to create a unified, steady, transparent and predictable environment for foreign investment. We will build up a clean, industrious, pragmatic and efficient government.

? 2. We will maintain and improve an open and fair market environment. We will, in
combination with the current nationwide work of rectifying and standardizing the operation of the market economy, firmly prohibit the arbitrarily imposed fees, inspections, contribution and fines on foreign-funded enterprises. We will make efforts to break down regional protectionism and industrial monopolies, intensify law enforcement in the protection of intellectual property rights, crack down on infringements of IPRs and copyright piracy so as to establish a unified and open market environment favorable to fair competition. We will further perfect the complaint system for foreign-funded enterprises and protect the lawful rights and interests of foreign businessmen in accordance with the law. 17.3
