In his speech, Prof. Yao pointed out that China’s immense economic accomplishment over its 45-year reform and opening up offers real-life materials for economic research. As China now stands at a crossroads in its development path, he calls on Chinese economists to sum up past economic achievements, select suitable economics topics, work to form a new wave of economics research, and strive to build China’s own knowledge system. In this way, exploration can be made to extend economic success to the erection of an economics system.
The conference lasted for two days and hosted 85 sessions of paper discussions and many more activities.
