Celebrating 30 years of reform and opening up

Yesterday marked the 30th anniversary of reform and opening up.

In a speech in the Great Hall of the People, President Hu Jintao hailed China’s rise from poverty to one of the world’s biggest economies and a major political power.

The transformation has made China the world’s fourth-largest economy in terms of gross domestic product, with 24.95 trillion yuan ($3.6 trillion) last year, up from 10th place with 364.5 billion yuan 30 years ago.

Hu also set targets for the country’s development: China should become a more well-off society by 2021 and become modernized by mid-century.

Direct flights, shipping, postal with Taiwan

Earlier this week, the mainland and Taiwan launched daily direct passenger flights, shipping routes and postal services for the first time in 60 years.

Wang Yi, minister of the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office said the development was “a historical stride”, while island leader Ma Ying-jeou hailed it as “a symbol of reconciliation”.

Shipping links resumed Monday, with new sea cargo routes and direct postal services.

Direct daily flights also started, with up to 108 daily flights per week, and 60 new cargo flights a month.

Previously flights between the mainland and Taiwan had to go to a third region, usually Hong Kong or Macao.

The direct routes will now cut transportation costs and time.

China, Japan, S. Korea bolster cooperation

China, Japan and the Republic of Korea formed a tripartite partnership on the weekend to tackle the global financial crisis.

The central banks of China and South Korea have agreed to a $26.3-billion currency swap to help the ROK have more liquidity to stabilize its currency.

This is the first such deal China has signed with a foreign central bank.

The Bank of Korea announced a similar deal worth $20 billion with Japan last week.
