Dear Mr. Secretary,
In advance of the U.S.-China 2012 Strategic & Economic Dialogue (S&ED), the undersigned members of the ENGAGE CHINA coalition and The U.S. Chamber of Commerce write to respectfully urge you to ensure that continued financial reform and modernization in China– including greater foreign participation – will be a priority item on the S&ED’s agenda. We are strongly of the view that a sharp focus on continued reform is highly appropriate, given the importance of ongoing reform to China’s long-term growth prospects – and given the importance of a growing China to American manufacturers, service providers, and farmers.
