9. Chinese premier Wen Jiabao
Birmingham – June 2011
“China has no intention to pursue a trade surplus, what we want is to
have balanced and sustainable growth of trade. To be more specific we
are going to take the following two measures to address the issue; first
we will welcome more British products to the Chinese market and
we will create conditions to make it happen. Second we are going to
make more use of this corporation model that is the design by the
British team, manufacturing by the Chinese workers and assembly
by the British workers.”
