Visiting Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on Thursday said that China will
unswervingly carry out its national policy of opening up to the outside world.
China's economic development will bring more business opportunities for its
partners, including Japan, Wen said at a luncheon with a group of important
Japanese economic leaders.
"We will abide by the promises made during our accession to the World Trade
Organization, to reduce the limits on market access, further open up the service
sector, and improve relevant laws, policies and the market environment," he
added.
Wen said China and Japan should continue to explore new areas and channels to
elevate the levels of their trade and economic cooperation.
The Chinese premier put forward a five-point proposal on further developing
China-Japan trade and economic relations:
-- To strengthen cooperation in environmental protection.
Wen said that environmental protection is vital to the
common sustainable development of both nations. As Japan has accumulated a
wealth of experience in this area, both countries can do a lot to boost mutual
cooperation.
