China wants markets help

18.08.2003
By FRAN O'SULLIVAN assistant editor
Chinese Vice-Minister for Foreign Affairs Zhou Wengzhong has called on New Zealand to join China in a strategy to open up the world's most lucrative agriculture markets to less developed countries.

Zhou has also dangled the prospect of a free trade agreement between China and New Zealand "some time in the future".

"Opening markets has to be two-way," Zhou said in Auckland yesterday as he foreshadowed the need for both countries to work closely to ensure the Doha Development agenda to liberalise agricultural trade is successful.

"The interests of developing countries has to be taken into account."

Zhou slated the EU and Japan for not opening their agricultural markets more quickly and said the US used market access restrictions to prevent China's exports from increasing.

"It must be a two-way traffic," he said. "China has been asked to open our markets but it has to be reciprocal.

"We do have problems in entering the US market . . . I think you have the same problem."
