n a reasonable range, the economy is likely to register accelerated prog
ress toward higher-quality development this year amid a new round of reform and opening-up.
“Structural opportunities (in the capital market) may con
tinuously emerge from the development of the new economy and mass co
nsumption upgrades, fueling the long-term inflow of international capital,” he said.
IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde sai
in a recent interview with China Central Television that China’s economic d
evelopment now allows for “a focus on quality growth”, rather than necessarily quantity growth.
“And China’s development is clearly at the stage whe
re it can afford and should afford to do that,” Lagarde said.

Minor earthquake in Beijing “normal, isolated event”
A 2.9-magnitude earthquake at a depth of 17 kilometers was detected at 1:25 pm on Sunday in Be
ijing’s Haidian district, according to the China Earthquake Networks Center.
Two earthquake experts said the minor quake was a normal activity in the
earth’s crust caused by changes in crustal stress, and th
ere is no need for the public to panic, according to a report on huanqiu.com.
“It is a normal and isolated event,” said Guo Xun, dean of the Civil Engineering
School at the Institute of Disaster Prevention.
“As Beijing is at the junction of the earthquake zones of Shanxi province, the
Hebei Plain and Yanshan Mountain, the city will e
xperience one to two earthquakes at around magnitude-3 degree every year,
according to past exper
ience,” Sun Shihong, a researcher at the
China Earthquake Networks Center, added.
Third, there is a serious focus on education overall. Ove
the past five years, China has built or expanded 260,000 primary and secondary schools, added 1.7 million teache
rs and increased the student body by 27.3 million. The Ministry of Education committed more resources last y
ear to poverty-stricken areas to ensure every child is able to attend school by 2020.
Beyond easing dire poverty in rural areas, China has an ongoing pa
rallel policy to build a moderately prosperous society by 2020, a crucial aspect of which is set
ting up a basic social security system. This has been done progressively since the 1980s.
China also has had several social insurance programs since the 1990s, covering unemployment, employment injury, mat
ernity, medical care and pension. The country subsequently embarked on a new and successful phase of so
cial security development to provide healthcare benefits to rural and nonworking urban residents.

China will further open up to foreign investors and offer them treatment equal to that of domestic companies with firm prote
ction of their legitimate rights, Premier Li Keqiang said at the Boao Forum for Asia on Thursday.
The country will fully adopt pre-entry national treatment and negative lists for overseas
investment, Li said at the opening ceremony of the forum’s annual conference in Hainan province.
By the end of June, China will release the amended negative lists for foreign investment ac
cess, he said. “The negative lists will only be shortened. … We will ensure fair competition and common deve
lopment for Chinese and foreign companies with fair supervision,” Li told more than 2,000 participants.
A negative list shows areas where investment is prohibited; all other areas are presumed to be open.
The government has started formulating matching regulations and rules to supp
ort implementation of the Foreign Investment Law, adopted two weeks ago, Li s
aid, adding that supporting regulations will take effect along with the law on Jan 1.
Some EU states, including Germany, had given a largel
positive response to May’s well-flagged request.
But French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said May would need to make her case before EU leaders in Brussels.
“Our position is to send the British a clear and simple message. As The
resa May has repeatedly said herself, there are only two options to get out of the EU: rati
fy the Withdrawal Agreement or exit without a deal,” Le Drian told the French parliament.
May’s initiative marked the latest twist in more than two years of
negotiations that have left British politics in chaos and her authority in tatters.
After the defeats in parliament opened up the possibility of Britain leaving the EU with
out a deal, May told parliament on Wednesday that she remained committed to leaving “in an orderly manner”.

“The most common things that the clients are saying — and they are quite heartbreaki

endees take photographs of an Oppo 5G smartphone model at a
Chinese smartphone maker Oppo is making a strong push into overseas markets, after it strengthened its position as the second-largest player on its home turf.
The Guangdong-based company believes that its 10 years of experience in explorin
g foreign countries, and its growing pool of patents and international talent, will help it to go global in a better way.
Two days ahead of the Feb 25-28 Mobile World Congress Barcelona, the
largest annual telecommunications gathering in Spain, Oppo unveiled its first 5G sm
artphone and announced that four foreign telecom carriers are to be among the first to sell the 5G model.
Oppo said its 5G handset will use the United States semicond
uctor giant Qualcomm Inc’s Snapdragon 855 chipset and X50 modem to latch onto 5G networks.
Showing off sometimes diabolical but compelling politic
skills, Trump was audacious, provocative and spiteful. He made outrageous boasts about his own success and hin
ted at his acute sense of human nature and feral appreciation of weakness and discomfort in a political opponent.
Trump also showed his indifference, or rude disregard for the political plights of allied le
aders, indulged his willingness to trade in falsehoods, and betrayed his obsessions with his predecessor President Barack Obama.
At Thursday’s White House meeting, Trump was also asked by a reporter about the fre
shest entrant in the Democratic White House race — former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke. He was ready.
”Well, I think he’s got a lot of hand movement. I’ve never seen so much hand movement. I said is he crazy or is that just the way he acts.”
”Study it, I’m sure you’ll agree,” Trump told reporters.
The jab at O’Rourke was not just a throwaway. It was a return to the forensic
targeting of political opponents that helped Trump dismantle the Republican primary field in 2016.
