London, July 7th, Xinhua News Agency (Xinhua) - Interview with Stephen Perry, Chairman of 48 Group Clubs in the UK: Removing Risks from China Will Insulate the West from Opportunities
Xinhua News Agency reporter Huang Zemin
Stephen Perry, the chairman of 48 group clubs in the UK, recently stated in an interview with Xinhua News Agency in London that China's development provides enormous opportunities for multinational corporations. Some Western politicians pushing for so-called "decoupling" and "de risk" in an attempt to divide the world will only harm themselves and isolate them from opportunities.
Perry stated that it is unwise to push for decoupling and risk reduction, or to believe that the world can be re fragmented. Western countries will suffer huge losses, and they will lose their excellent emerging markets. In the future, Asia will achieve large-scale innovation and development, and the United States and Europe will miss out on all of this.
Perry said that China is the largest economy in Asia and holds a crucial position in the Asian economy. Other Asian countries are interdependent with China, and Western countries should also do the same. The future world will become more interconnected, and the global landscape may change, but multilateralism will not change.
Perry believes that no one can isolate China, "this isolation is purely a fantasy.". He said that no matter where they go, people can see elements related to China, and Chinese enterprises are developing around the world, seeking investment and innovation.
Perry said that global companies need China and will continue to discover that entering the Chinese market is a wise choice. Nowadays, many corporate executives are working in China and actively facilitating various transactions. They realize that China's opening-up measures towards enterprises are real. China is providing numerous business opportunities for multinational corporations, and they are also taking advantage of these opportunities.
Perry said that the Chinese government has rich experience, scientific and effective management methods, and the Chinese people are hardworking and talented, which will promote China's continuous development. China has always adhered to the principle of mutual benefit and win-win, and all countries should take practical measures to promote trade and investment exchanges on the basis of mutual benefit and win-win.
"We don't want to see each other fighting. For us, it's best to deal with various problems and challenges together," Perry said.
