What overseas academics would ask Premier Li Keqiang

If I had the chance to meet with Premier Li, I would tell him the highest priority is to restore confidence. I think domestic markets in China are a little nervous.

My number one recommendation would be to put more emphasis on the structural reform, particularly in the State-owned sector.

Many of the longer term indicators (of the Chinese economy) are actually quite good. We should not forget that in spite of all the problems, China continues to be the best performing large economy in the world today. Don't overlook that.
