IMF needs able, impartial boss

Dominique Strauss-Kahn has resigned as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) managing director after been charged with sexually assaulting a woman in a New York hotel. Among the names suggested as his successor is that of Zhu Min, special adviser to the IMF chief and former deputy governor of China's central bank, says an article in Shanghai Business. Excerpts:

The job of the IMF managing director is to promote international monetary cooperation and balanced development of international trade. So the IMF chief should have special qualities like excellent diplomatic skills in mediation and negotiations and impartiality to act in the interest of all 187 member countries, all of which Zhu Min has.
