Solid implementation of reform in China benefits private, foreign firms, EU commerce chamber says
CHINA'S efforts on reform was welcomed by European industry and a resolute implementation would help to rebalance the economy and improve the business environment for private and foreign companies, the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China said today.
“After a decade of limited and piecemeal reform, the decision of the third plenum was welcomed as a framework to address China's growing economic and societal issues," the chamber said in its European Business in China Position Paper 2014/2015. "It will also help to accelerate the transition to a fairer system and from exclusive growth to inclusive participation."
China held the third plenary session of the 18th Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party last November, which shed light on the pace and direction of reforms after the President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang took power. China would give the market a bigger role to play, policymakers decided after the plenum, which elaborated plans on future growth ranging from economic issues to social reforms.
"China's leaders have laid bold groundwork for reforms, but implementation is crucial and many difficult steps lie ahead," the chamber said in the position paper. "China's leadership must remain steadfast and urgently implement the primary tenets of the third plenum decisions to shift China onto a more sustainable, inclusive and fairer course."
Commenting on the business, European Chamber President Jorg Wuttke said "European companies have been setting more modest expectations and revising down investment plans for China amid difficult business headwinds and continued unfavorable treatment...but the decision on reform has raised their hopes and expectations."
