Ramos: Premier Wen's 5-point proposal outlines road map for economy recovery "The five-point proposal on strengthening Asian cooperation made by Premier Wen is very enlightening, and it outlines a strategic, visionary and long-term road map for the economy recovery," said Ramos, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Boao Forum for Asia during an exclusive interview with Xinhuanet. • How far is China away from the crisis? Premier: China's stimulus package plan paying off China's economic stimulus package plan is already paying off, and positive changes have taken place in the economy, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said at the opening ceremony of the Boao Forum for Asia annual conference 2009. China's SOEs see recovery in March China's centrally-administered state-owned enterprises reported a rebound in performance in March with a 26 percent growth in profits from a year ago, said an official with China's state asset watchdog. Commentary: Stimulus package no solution to long-term development Government and business leaders attending the Boao Forum for Asia agreed that the crisis will be over, but China can not return to the former export-oriented development pattern that depends on the demand in the United States and Europe. Those days are over, and now the country should learn to walk with both legs -- domestic demand and exports.
