Xi pledges greater opening-up


Market access, imports to grow, CEOs assured
President Xi Jinping pledged on Thursday to continue to broaden market access and expand imports amid the country's efforts to pursue a higher quality of openness.
Xi made the remark while meeting with global business leaders gathering to attend a roundtable meeting to discuss openness and win-win cooperation at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse in Beijing.
This year marks the 40th anniversary of China's reform and opening-up, and all the business leaders at the meeting have participated in, witnessed, contributed to and benefited from the Chinese policy, Xi said.
Foreign capital has played an important and positive role in the process of reform and opening-up, Xi said, adding that China's door will not close, but open wider and wider.
