Introduction

This Policy Brief is based on the articles originally appearing in the Perspectives series of ADB Institute’s e-Newsline from March 2005 to March 2006. This is also regarded as a continuation of Policy Brief No.13 “Hot Topics for the Future of PRC and Hong Kong, China” published in December 2004. The articles included here are not necessarily academic nor technical, but rather the author tried to provide policy makers and ordinary readers who are interested in the PRC and the Asia-Pacific region with various information and some analytical viewpoints for the current and future issues the PRC economy is now facing.

Some of the articles in this Policy Brief are based on the informal discussions with the experts in the PRC as well as in Japan. The author particularly would like to thank Thomas Chan Head of China Business Centre of Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Zhao Zhijun Professor of the Economic Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS), Chen Jianbo Professor of the Development Research Center of State Council (DRC), Liu Li-Gang Senior Manager of Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), Liu Feng Senior Research Associate of DRC, and Tracy Yang of Australian National University (ANU). Nevertheless, the views expressed are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of others or any organization.
