Part of Comments on the Seminar on Financial Openness and Financial Risk Control for Developing Countries:
Concerning the seminar that i have attended in China, first i would like to thank you for your hospitality and your help. Also the assistants and the organisers there were very helpful.It was a great pleasure for me to visit your country and to discover its culture and its society.
The seminar was great, it gave us a global view about the economic situation of China and the historical overview of its development.
I like the subject of the lectures, they were very interesting and useful.
During the last lecture, it was suppposed that all the participants do a presentation about their countries, but in fact the time given for each country was about 10 minutes which was unsufficient to do even an introduction!
The closing ceremony, the trips and the tours were nice and well organised.
Finally, i would like to thank you again and i wish i could have another opportunity to visit China again.
