The People s Republic Of China, Serving As China s Head...
Dear Balram, Who says your way is right? I am Wen Jiabao the sixth Premier of the State Council of the People s Republic of China, serving as China s head of government. I have received your letters and must say I thoroughly disagree with your perspective. I, Wen Jiabao, am the man behind Beijingââ¬â¢s economic policy.
