DALIAN, June 28-- Few gatherings in China assemble global business elites like Summer Davos. Since Tuesday, China's northeastern city of Dalian has seen hundreds of corporate executives from all over the world talking on a wide range of topics from the new industrial revolution to inclusive economic growth. Greeting them on Wednesday, Premier Li Keqiang said the country's reform needs the participation of foreign capital, companies and wisdom, pledging easier market access and a level playing field. "China's reform has always run parallel with opening up. We invite foreign firms to come to China and participate in corporate reorganization and will further lower the threshold of services to foster new growth engines," Li said, reassuring those overseas guests the same treatment as their domestic peers. A day before, the premier addressed the opening of the forum, officially the Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2017. "I am very positively impressed with the premier's speech and the confidence that he showed on the growth of the economy," said Neil Hawkins, corporate vice president of the Dow Chemical Co. The businessman who has witnessed the rise of China since his first trip here nearly 30 years ago is still awed by its development. "When I look at the market here, I see incredible growth opportunities across virtually every sector." Hawkins was not the only one excited about the market here. |
