Economic Observer Editorial
- For Responsible Stimulus Policy
- Though we applaud efforts to loosen the reins on private business and drum up credit, regulators should work to prevent unnecessary risks and non-performing loans.
- 12月8日 16:26
- The Key to a Successful Stimulus
- China must apply the lesson of 1998--that the key to a successful stimulus is letting private businesses in on the party.
- 12月2日 12:33
- China Needs to Focus on Job Creation
- We cannot escape the deepening global financial crisis unless the government works harder to create jobs.
- 11月25日 17:09
- China Should Learn From 1998
- The RMB 4 trillion stimulus package will give first-aid to the economy and restore public confidence, but the 1998 experience has taught us that there's more to heading off a crisis.
- 11月18日 10:24
- A New Opportunity for Cross-strait Development
- Recent agreements to create direct postal, trade, and travel links between Taiwan and the mainland are proof that despite political and ideological barriers, people on both sides of the strait are moving forward hand in hand. The progress should not stop

- To Solve Crisis, China Should Take Care of its Own
- In assuming the role of a responsible stakeholder in world affairs, China should do as much as it can to help dissolve the financial crisis. By taking care of its own, it does much toward that end.
- 10月27日 15:23
- We Still Believe
- Though opinion is swinging against the free-market model, we argue for restraint against calling off China's current smart and steady march toward reform.
- 10月20日 14:39
- Call for Suspension of Beijing's Traffic Restriction
- Beijing has limited private cars from the road once a week based on the last number of license plates. The EO editorial questions if the ruling is legal, fair, and has followed proper proceedings.

- Perpetrator and Victim: Two Sides of a Coin
- When reflecting on the melamine-tainted milk scandal, we - as individual member of the society - should also check ourselves and ask: if we have performed our moral duty and social responsibility.
- 10月6日 16:41
- Disposing of an Industry's Black Veil
- When an administrative system rates its officials' performance based on local economic growth, chances are local officials would side and protect businesses' interests to push for presentable growth statistics.
- 9月22日 16:12
- Rescue Measures Not Applicable for Stock Market
- The recent US federal government's move to take over two mortgage giants has prompted calls for the Chinese government to intervene the tumbling stock market, our editorial thinks the suggestion was like comparing apples to oranges.
- 9月16日 16:39
- Stronger State Firms or a Stronger Chinese Economy?
- The EO is disheartened by the amount of SOEs topping a recent list of 500 "strong" Chinese firms. When state-backed giants are rolling in profits they can only be squeezing out smaller private businesses.
- 9月8日 15:42
- Olympic Gold Brings Hope for Sports Reform
- While Chinese celebrate their ascent to the top of the gold medal list, we should take a moment to reflect on all that still has to be done for China to truly be considered a world leader in sports.
- 8月25日 14:52
- Violence Must be Condemned, its Cause Sorted Out
- Recent incidents of violence and protest are strong signals that China must take a hard look at why people are turning to such desperate measures.
- 7月14日 15:39
- Hot Money Can't be Plugged Up
- The risk hot money poses to China's economy won't be mitigated by plugging up holes. Instead, China should focus on creating a sound and stable investment environment and freeing the yuan.
- 7月7日 15:00
- Draft of State Owned Assets Law Falls Short
- The second draft of the State Owned Assets Law does not go far enough in finally putting to rest conflicts between various government agencies and ensuring that state assets won't be squandered.
- 6月30日 15:36
- Let the Market Lead in Prices
- Though a recent bump to fuel prices by Chinese regulators is heartening, it shouldn't have been necessary in the first place.
- 6月23日 14:17
- Try to Remain... Confident
- Vietnam's recent economic troubles have only added to the pessimism over China's economy. But despite the litany of forces that some say indicate a derailing of China's growth, there is much to be optimistic about.
- 6月16日 12:58
- A Tortured Ascent?
- Our editorial argues that the resurgence of backlash against the yuan's appreciation is misled. Exporters knew that the yuan would begin to appreciate as early as 2003, and for them to have still not adjusted is a sign of poor competitiveness. More import

- The Key is to Quickly Reduce Inflation
- Providing subsidies to low-income groups hard pressed by price surges is only an emergency measure--the core of the solution should be resolving inflation.
