STORYLINE:

STANDUP 1 (English): ZHENG XIN, Xinhua correspondent
"China has pledged to further expand high-level opening-up and step up efforts to attract and leverage foreign investment.
What are China's business environment and market like?
How does China drive global growth? How important is global cooperation?
Insiders at this year's Boao Forum for Asia annual conference in south China's Hainan have shared their views."

SOUNDBITE 1 (English): ARAVIND YELERY, Associate professor, Jawaharlal Nehru University
"The more China opens, it brings more opportunities for the neighboring countries, and for countries from distant regions. The global economy has a lot of prospects to expect from China and China will have a key role to play that."

SOUNDBITE 2 (Chinese): ZHENG YONGNIAN, Presidential Chair Professor, Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen)
"China is not only a part of the world economy, but also contributes to the continuous sustainable development of the world economy.
Through high-level opening up, we are creating such a business environment that promotes the global flow of capital, technology, and talent. This is not only for the sustainable development of our own country, but also for continuing to promote globalization."

SOUNDBITE 3 (English): KLAUS SCHUSTEREDER, Visiting Scholar of Boao Forum for Asia
"What I see is that China is willing to do business first of all, with everybody on the planet. I think it's a great opportunity for everybody. And China offers massive potential for everybody. So I think it's a great opportunity for companies, politicians, societies."

SOUNDBITE 4 (English): CARL FEY, Professor of Strategy, BI Norwegian Business School
"I think the Chinese government has taken several initiatives to try to make it a more attractive place for foreign companies. The laws today in China are much better than they used to be.
It's encouraging to see that the Chinese government is playing a larger role globally in trying to help not just China, but the world develop as China becomes stronger economically."
