Thanks for the beautiful presentation. I presume open and honest people in this company. We have to believe common sense and logic. If the machine is not working well there must be something wrong, needs some fixings. If something is good adopt it because it makes sense.

I hope more people will hear these voices of reason, the American people deserve to know the truth. As for politicians in Washington and their media, there is no hope.

Sandra Mckinlay That’s a sad statement actually sickening we better wake up!

The reasons China could not come into agreement with the US can be summarized in 3 points. 1. The US require that China changes its promulgated law to reflect the "trade agreement". It should be pointed out that the last time China did that was during the period of humiliation by western powers and Japan before WW2, which culminated into the May 4th movement in 1919. This is obviously a non starter. 2. In addition to the US retaining some of the tariffs and China to eliminate all, the US require that should China be found in "violation" of the agreement, the US can reimpose tariff, and China cannot retaliate. Even Kevin Rudd, Australia's ex PM, said that he would have rejected such request if it were presented to him as PM. 3. The amount of committed purchases of farm and other merchandise from the US is a fixed amount that cannot be changed even when China's domestic demand changes (e.g., China's problem with her hog herd size due to swine flu, which would reduce China's import of soybean). If the US is serious to reach a trade deal, less posturing and more realistic expectation is the key. As is, no Chinese government leaders can agree. 5 hours ago

From what I have seen and read if China accepts the terms, great. Its a small win that can set up future wins. But it seems to me that this is the first logical step they needed to take if the course was a future war with China. The trade war will help the US slowly ween itself off of cheap Chinese goods and give them time to set up alternatives while at the same time causing a major headache for the Chinese. They are also destabilizing world trade which the USA depends very little on while Chinese depend very heavily on it. Trumps thinking is why hold up a system that does nothing for me and rivals depend heavily on. Then there is their position on Iran, which China depends on cheap energy from.

It's come about because USA companies have been shifting all factories out of the country. Then you have problems with people getting jobs in the USA, you have to remember the USA is paying China around 850 billion it more and china is paying USA 150 billion. That causes problems for USA. These speakers say the same thing the biggest car market isn't USA, it's China right now. China already had more millionaires than USA right now, and the Chinese domestic economy surpassed USA back in 2016. These trade problems is really about trying to keep USA in the #1 spot rather than some ww 2 issue.

It's clear that everyone has their own system. Each has its own strength and weakness. It is freedom of choice and no one can force the other to change

Let's go back to these 'basic' discussion to examine what can be done for the interest of both instead of none. Probably the US and China shouldn't have gotten so close in the first place and shall never get that close ever again, since what is happening is going to make it almost impossible for this 'couple' to get close again.

The US has no problem with Taiwan is because Taiwan relies upon her security on the US's power hence subservient to the US in many issues. Whereas China is the opposite she wants to assert her influence on parts of Asia which are traditionally the domain of US hegemony, and the US wants to maintain that hegemony and does not want to treat Chian as a rising power and treat her as an equal. This is the basic thrust of the difference between the two powers.

I enjoy this conversation, one of the very few sensible voices in the current environment. Unfortunately, it can't reach to decision makers

Very productive conversations, something that much more educational than from the antics of Washington. Definitely gave different perspectives and more understanding bilateral relationships vs hostile name calling and non stop rhetoric bans that burns relationships between Washington and Beijing.

A great event that has guests that truly understand two sides!

In BC Canada (one province) there are 498,000 Chinese. They have bought up the best properties, many on loans from mainland..

In recent years we're seen the development of two transportation standards and systems. We're now in the process of the world developing two technological standards and systems.

Looking at both sides cause am a Foreign born Malaysian Chinese. I think a lot of the “problem” is driven by political needs in both sides.

The US used to be the economic power and tech leader for a few decades but China is granted 7 times as many patents per year as the US and China graduates 50 times the engineers as the US. PPP, the measure of buying power for unit of work or local currency places China well ahead of the US and that difference it widening every month. The middle class in China is booming and is far larger than the US total population. In the US the once dominate middle class has seen its share of national wealth drop from 67% to 6.5% in 35 years, and the poor and working class drop from 18% to less than 2 percent. Just look at Chinese cities, each more modern in services and infrastructure than any US city. The US still can't build a single high-speed rail system while China has installed far more HS rail in Africa than the Americas have in total. The US is trying to bully a country that does not want to be bullied and can do just fine without the US at all. It is obvious the US only negotiating tool is the military and some countries are prepared to effectively defend themselves, China and Russia for example. The US was unable to defeat Syria so how can Washington be so clueless to think the US can invade China or Russia and not be destroyed in the process?

It's not about failure. It's about putting off people, 7 years to get a license to rent a building to open a branch. You then require a license to be allowed to lend money, then another license to lend money out to 1 set market. That's 3 licenses before you have even started, and if it is 7 years each most Banks wouldn't bother, as you're waiting 21 years just to get started to lend money, and that wouldn't let you hold any money as you'd require more licenses to do that as well.

Why should we be “above all of that”.

The opening remarks are highly ironic since he said in the US "banks are good at managing risks because we let them fail," wow really? If that were true then the great recession would never have happened. What was the rationale used to justify the bank bailouts again? Was it "too big to fail" or "let them fail?" nobody remembers, but those banks sure as heck were good at managing risks. The laws, regulations and market conditions in China and the US are quite different to be sure, but isn't it incumbent upon the businesses to do their due diligence and make all the preparations humanly possible before going into a foreign market? Or is it simply assumed that since we are American, we are always right so everyone has to change their laws to accommodate our needs.

What are some of the most important patents which come from China?

I once read a very old book on 'origins of chinese language' written by a British author (interestingly) who wrote in the foreword ... something to this effect (I do not have book to quote directly). He said, historically in all the dynasties throughout history, the non Han rulers like Yuan and Qing had to accept the local language however hard they tried to impose their culture and language on the Han majority. If it is hard for the victors in China to replace the Han language with Mongolian and Manchurian language abd culture, it is more difficult from.the outside. A old civilisation language and culture is not something you can change in.a few of decades. That is why Chinese tend to look.at things in.decades.

"What regulations and other legalities are applied to opening and running a bank in China?" Was it even asked? Was it asked but not answered? Otherwise... Not the brightest knife in the banking industry.

Opening speech is funny, honest and relatable. I think the US government want to contain China and I think the decoupling process has begun. There will be painful readjustment like any divorce. The actions by US is very aggressive and I think whatever trust and respect built by individuals will come to naught. Yes. CCP should be rebranded. LOL.

Not a TRADE WAR... but a BALANCING of TRADE

If you went to China to open a bank and didn't understand the rules what does that say about you

The US used to be a great country. it was absorbing as much as 1,000,000 brainy people a year as students, research assistants, researchers, and people with special skills. This includes Einstein, Von Newmann, and the Internet luminaries like Engelbart, Wiener, and many others. Unfortunately, after 911, this supply has been cut. Brain power in the US is fast depleting. On the other hand, brain power in China is on the uptrend. One of the latest reports is that the Chinese are publishing more scientific articles than the US. Established scientists and researchers are also moving to China. They get funding, infrastructure, and also research assistants to accelerate their work. China also has more supercomputing power than the US today. Given the above scenario, the US can only hold on to its military power for now.

you are a silly Chinese man. innovation happens partly because of the free market and our right to prosper from our inventions by implementing patents. We have a free market that allows business's to naturally excel in their individual endeavors. It's not state controlled. Almost all our cases showed that when we have privatized an industry it did so much better. Such as the airlines, private schools, and even our space programs like Space X. You might be good with the calculator, but you are standing on a weak foundation. Marxist Communist Russia fell, Its a matter of time before China does the same.

Hoping China becomes a liberal country maybe genuinely good intention of the western world but looking at the twists and turns of events we must honest government roles is vital. The two parties or the multi parties system don't seem right and the free market capitalist plus government roles is doing far more better. Only natural to let them go their way.

For Americans, What's your political system and What's your value?

Survival of the fittest....

if a country does not have a policy of reciprocal interests, than it is the betrayal of citizens. The only issue is that reciprocity isn't always symmetrical, therefore there is no objective way to measure it. For that reason it has to be renegotiated all the time in order to achieve the point the best possible interest of its citizens. (definitions of "citizens well-being" differs across cultures and times and its dominant ideological paradigm which ppl choose and legitimizes)

Why can’t there be an agreement to be different?

Very productive conference that the capable US government officials should participate. Unfortunately none of them are capable to comprehend the importance and the benefits of the cooperation with China.

If you want to see the face of a poor con man, you see it in the first speaker. He forgot that the greatest bailout of banks ever in history occurred in 2009 - 2011.

Kenneth is right, China should let him and his company do whatever they want, so they can earn lots of money. 12 years ago, Goldman employees did very well, thousand of Chinese millionaires lost billions of dollars. Because they didn’t understand the real risk of all products Goldman try to sell to them, but just trusted Goldman. And they signed the agreement for sure! Was that fair? Really? The most happy thing is using others’ money to earn money for yourself and without any responsibility.

Just ask yourselves, for God's sake, "who benefits?"

Hello dear panelists, I have been hearing your debates. System of social sciences and social organisations. It has taken decades, centuries for China to have harmonise social organisation, so like the UK and the US. Besides, linguistics 'limitations', emotional caracters that one is talking to, who are the interlocutors.... I'll relisten again for details. Kind regards,

Can't help wondering if that guy at 53:00 have been in China recently and if so he left the business area. Many things in China are actually getting more closed and more limited. Both to foreigners, to business and to control the locals.

Trade balancing was/is needed. More taxes on Chinese goods are needed. Move the manufacturing back on US shore or to a more open country with no currency manipulation or taxes on products.

If GDP/capita reaches $16000, I think an authoritarian system will enter a state of diminishing returns and a more open system will maximize efficiency. Until then, the authoritarian system is still a useful incubator for the Chinese economy.

I've been re-studying the opium war that the UK started in China in recent weeks. Absolutely disgusting and despicable history on the UK part.

It is an ethical conflict between the USA and China which can be resolved with education and strong contractual rule of law!

I don't think people should say IP when referring to intellectual property, because IP is also used for internet protocol. Instead of saying IP, I think people should say intellectual property, patents, or trade secrets.

Most of the speakers are ignoring the horrendous, degenerative human rights condition and political condition in China while they ranted about economic progress. It's a clear strategy of the CCP since 2012 that they want to export this totalitarian, dictatorship driven model and challenge the free world as an alternative. The question we need to ask ourselves is: DO WE WANT TO, ONE DAY, BE SUBJECT TO SUCH A MODEL? Participants in the talk are all smart people (the so called elite), I don't think any of them is not aware, but they just chose to ignore and conceal, for their own interest.

A night of real experts ? By what criteria ? Starting off with an old banker who brashly shows off his ignorance of China ?
