According to David Daokui Li, Director of the Academic Center for Chinese Economic Practice and Thinking (ACCEPT) at Tsinghua University, the common misunderstanding that “the private economy is not the foundation of the ruling party’s rule,” should be further clarified. When the public keeps hearing that the ruling party is based on a state-owned economy, it creates a big problem, Li told the annual Tsinghua PBCSF Chief Economists Forum in Beijing.

Chinese and American economists expressed full confidence over China's economic recovery this year at the Tsinghua PBCSF Chief Economists Forum held May 6 in Beijing, but they remain cautious when it comes to the longer-term picture, suggesting that striving for long-term stable growth should be the focus of future economic work.
