China's Economy in 2010: A Forum at the NYSE - Part 1 - Introductions, Justin Yifu Lin and Qin Xiao
Aug 27, 2010
In this video, Dr. Justin Yifu Lin, chief economist and vice president of the World Bank and the founder of CCER, speaks about the paradigm shift in the global growth economic model. Dr. Lin recently defended the Chinese governments currency exchange rate policy against calls for the yuan to appreciate against the dollar. Following Dr. Lin, Dr. Qin Xiao, the chairman of the China Merchants Group (CMG), gives his perspective on the China's economy. CMG is one of Chinas largest and best-managed corporate conglomerates. The China Merchants Bank, a subsidiary, was rated No. 1 by the Wall Street Journal for leadership among all publicly-traded Chinese companies in 2009. Dr. Qin, who has a Ph.D. in economics from Cambridge University, recently warned in the Financial Times that the stimulative loose monetary policy, if unchecked, may create asset bubbles in China. As China's economy influences virtually every aspect of the US economy and financial markets, understanding its trajectory informs every decision that we make. This event was both developed and organized by the National Committee on United States-China Relations in partnership with China Center for Economic Research (CCER) and hosted by the New York Stock Exchange on January 7, 2010.

China defies global economy trend
Aug 27, 2010
World Bank figures have given China a double-digit growth in the last quarter of 2009 - 10.7 per cent to be precise - which puts it on course to overtake Japan as the second-largest economy in the world, after the US. Mansoor Dailami, the manager of international finance in the World Bank's development economics branch, told Al Jazeera: "China's economy has been growing very rapidly since the end of the recession. "But the problem is that the country has a huge population with significant diversity between different regions but they still have a long way to go to catch up with the more advanced countries." Dailami said: "Basically, 2010 is going to be a year of economic recovery compared to 2009 yet there are some concerns in regards to the pace and dynamism of this recovery and what it takes for things to continue moving forward from 2010 into 2011." However, China's large population means there are still millions of people who are not experiencing the positive effects of their country's economic boom. Al Jazeera's Melissa Chan reports.

Understanding the China / US Economic Relationship - Richard Wolff
Aug 29, 2010
Complete video at: fora.tv Economist Richard Wolff explores the complex, worrisome economic relationship between China and the US American consumerism, he says, funds China's ability to lend to the US in what he calls a "replay in reverse" of the Marshall Plan. ----- Join Economics Professor Richard Wolff, University of Massachusetts, for a screening of his film, "Capitalism Hits the Fan," and a Q and A. Professor Wolff breaks down the root causes of today's economic crisis and traces its source to the 1970s, when wages began to stagnate and American workers were forced into a spiral of borrowing and debt. By placing the crisis in this framework, Wolff argues that proposals for government "bailouts," offers of stimulus packages, and calls for increased market regulation will not address the real causes of the crisis. He suggests that far more fundamental change is necessary to avoid future catastrophes. Richly illustrated with motion graphics, "Capitalism Hits the Fan" is a superb introduction to the unraveling economic crisis for ordinary citizens. - The New School Richard D.
