In my view, Asian countries have learnt the lessons from the past and significantly enhanced their capabilities to fend off risks.
There are many countries in the world that when they reached the middle-income stage, they witnessed serious structural problems such as growth stagnation, a widening wealth gap and increasing social unrest.
I was a student at Peking University for close to a decade, while a so-called 'knowledge explosion' was rapidly expanding. I was searching for not just knowledge, but also to mold a temperament, to cultivate a scholarly outlook.
Openness has been vital to Asia's fast growth in the past and it will continue to be crucial for the area's further development.
Governments at all levels and the whole society should act more vigorously to protect the land our lives depend on.
Reforming is about curbing government power. It is a self-imposed revolution; it will require real sacrifice, and it will be painful.
In the past, proactive fiscal polices almost always meant just more investment and an increase in the fiscal deficit.
Ultimately, stable growth will ensure that urban and rural incomes increase and people's lives improve.
We must keep prices under control to ensure that price increases do not exert a major negative impact on people's lives.
As a developing country, China needs a favorable neighbouring and international environment for its modernisation.
When neighbours interact with each other, it is only natural that sometimes they will run into problems of some kind or another. As long as they respect each other, properly manage differences, and pursue mutual benefits, there will be harmonious sound instead of jarring noises.
No matter how senior an official is, if he violates party discipline and the law of the country, he will be seriously dealt with and punished.
Many people in the world believe that in the 21st century, the Asia-Pacific - Asia in particular - will play a more important role in global economy and politics and that Asia will become an important engine for the world economy.
China and India are friendly neighbours. We are also natural partners. Both of our countries stand for amicable and peaceful relations between countries and a multipolar world. The peaceful and friendly relations between our two countries is a blessing not just to Asia, but to also the whole world.
Development and prosperity of the world cannot happen without the simultaneous development of India and China.
China's reform and opening-up programme and Europe's integration process have both contributed significantly to global peace, development, and prosperity. China firmly supports the integration of Europe and regards the E.U. as a strategic partner that deserves our confidence.
In fighting the debt crisis, E.U. countries have enhanced co-operation and carried out reform with tremendous courage. This is laudable.
When 'designed in Europe' is combined with 'made in China' and when European technologies are applied to the Chinese market, there will be amazing results.
With its population making up one fifth of the world's total, China offers a market with enormous potential.
China is committed to work with other countries for a solution to the global challenge of energy and resources.
I believe that the United Kingdom can stay at the forefront in leading the world's growth and development and also continue to play an important and even bigger role for regional stability and global peace.
When I visit local communities, people often complain that they need the approval of several dozen government departments to get something done or to start a business, and people are quite frustrated about this.
I'm afraid sometimes certain individual cases of defaults are unavoidable. What we should do is to step up monitoring, properly handle relevant matters, and ensure there is no regional and systemic financial risk.
India and China have not shied away from addressing boundary questions, have wisdom to find a fair and mutually acceptable solution... We have been able to put all issues on the table.
The market is the creator of social wealth and the wellspring of self-sustaining economic development.
Poverty and backwardness in the midst of clear waters and verdant mountains is no good, nor is it to have prosperity and wealth while the environment deteriorates.
Innovation is the running theme and spirit of the policies adopted by the Chinese government, and it is the banner that we will always hold high.
