The China Analyst - March 2011: Doing Business in a Fast Changing China

Beijing, Mar 11, 2011 AEST (ABN Newswire) - China's economy raced ahead in 2010, continuing more than three decades of growth that have seen it become the world's second-largest economy. Yet it is also possible to picture the outlines of what lies ahead in the coming decades, when we will witness a new China on the world stage: the world's largest and most important economy. By all current estimations, this time is around the corner, and it is imperative for foreign businesses to understand the changing opportunity landscape presented by China's modernising economy, and to exercise the right strategic options in this regard.

For eight years since 2002, from its headquarters in the Chinese capital, The Beijing Axis has provided China business solutions to foreign firms from around the world. For most of these eight years, The China Analyst has been The Beijing Axis' core knowledge tool for executives with a China agenda. In this first edition of 2011, we have peered into the future that likely lies ahead for China and the changing opportunity landscape for foreign firms, with the following lead features:

1. China in 2030: The full extent of China's rise in the coming decades and where it is likely to stand by 2030
2. Strategic Options in China's Construction Industry: The foreign firms who stand to profit are those with the advanced technology China needs, as well as those willing to look at new collaborative models
3. Engaging China's Machinery Industry: China presents options for foreign firms as an export and investment destination, and as a source of capital
4. China's Coming Clean Coal Revolution: China is increasingly engaging clean coal, and this presents scope for foreign firms to partner with Chinese firms

Of course this edition also contains all the regular sections, including China Sourcing Strategy, highlighting new China sourcing opportunities for foreign steel players; China Strategy, featuring an investigation of China's largest coal producer, China Shenhua; China Capital, including a new Hong Kong IPO Watch sub-section; and four Regional Focus sections with analysis of the latest China-related trade and investment activities for Africa, Australia, Latin America and Russia.

I trust our readers will enjoy this edition of The China Analyst and will be able to draw strategic insights from its pages. As always we welcome your feedback, and we once again wish all our readers a happy and prosperous Year of the Rabbit!
