China will keep its exchange rate basically stable while striving towards the
goal of a market-driven, managed float regime, Premier Wen Jiabao said at an
Asia-Europe meeting of finance ministers in Tianjin, on Sunday.
China's exchange rate reform is a
'slow business', central bank head Zhou Xiaochuan said on May 24, 2005.
[AFP] | Wen said China's reform of the yuan
currency would be gradual to avoid economic shocks, and must be done with
consideration for China's economic and financial stability, as well as the
impact on the region and the world.
China is under intense pressure from its trading partners to allow the yuan
to strengthen, in line with its rising trade surpluses.
Beijing keeps the yuan pegged in a narrow range around 8.28 to the dollar but
has repeatedly said it will gradually make the yuan more flexible, but in its
own time.
