China-Japan Economic Dialogue to Focus on Global Financial Crisis

The global financial crisis will be high on the agenda of the second China-Japan high-level economic dialogue in Tokyo later this year, said Chinese Deputy Commerce Minister Chen Jian on Monday.

Chen doesn't tell the exact date of the event, but a delegation staffed by officials from a dozen Chinese ministries and government organizations on Monday held the seventh round of negotiations over economic partnership with a Japanese delegation.

China's Commerce Ministry and Japan's Foreign Ministry were put in charge of organizing negotiations.

Chen said other topics on the agenda would include macro-economic policies, energy efficiency and environmental protection, trade and investment, and regional and global economic issues.

"We hope to advance economic growth in both countries, and realize reciprocal deals through the dialogue, and send a positive signal that Japan and China are striving to forge strategic, reciprocal, preferential economic and trade cooperative ties through concerted efforts, and make a due contribution to economic stability and development in Asia and the world," said Chen.

The delegations discussed the timetable, agenda and topics to be discussed at the dialogue.

The economic dialogue mechanism was jointly launched by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and then Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe during Wen's trip to Japan in April last year. The first dialogue took place in Beijing in December.
