Tech management system not untoward

ON SATURDAY, the National Development and Reform Commission, the nation's top economic planner, was tasked with establishing a management system to protect China's key technologies. China Daily writer Zhang Zhouxiang comments:

Some Western media outlets and analysts have said the move is intended to "curb" China's technological interaction with other countries. That is a misunderstanding and misinterpretation of China's intentions.

China is only doing what developed countries have long done, and all its measures are aimed at more effectively forestalling and defusing national security risks.
