Premier Says China Has No Plans for More Administrative Changes to Currency's Value
BEIJING (AP) -- Premier Wen Jiabao said Tuesday that China sees no need for further one-time administrative changes in the exchange rate of its currency following a decision last July to drop its direct link to the dollar.
"There will be no more surprises," Wen said at a news conference.
Wen said the current system, which bases the value of the Chinese yuan on a group of global currencies, allows enough flexibility for the currency, also known as the renminbi, to fluctuate on its own.
"It is no longer necessary for us to take a one-off administrative means to affect the movement of the renminbi either upward or downward," he said. |
