Forum stresses embracing more open global economy

Yoshitaka Murata, president of the Japan-China Science, Technology and Culture Center and former chairman of the National Public Safety Commission, expects the world's two largest economies to find a chance this week to mitigate tensions.

"The US has shaped the value of globalization and benefited the most from the integrated world economy, and I believe the US will ultimately turn back to globalization," Murata added.
