IF CHINA'S VAUNTED ECONOMIC REFORM PROGRAM
IS TO MOVE
AHEAD EXPEDITIOUSLY (PARA 3B).
CHEN'S RECOMMENDATIONS
LEAVE NO DOUBT THAT CHINA HAS ENTERED A CRITICAL PERIOD
IN THE REFORM PROCESS,
DURING WHICH THE SHIFT TO THE
MARKET ECONOMY MUST BE EMBRACED AND ANY RETRENCHMENT OR
STEPS BACKWARD COULD FATALLY DAMAGE THE REFORM MOVEMENT
ITSELF.
HOWEVER,
MANY LEADING CHINESE ECONOMISTS FEAR
THAT THE
SPC,
THE BULWARK OF THE OLD PLANNED AND
CENTRALLY REGULATED ECONOMY,
IS FILLED WITH LEADERS WHO
ARE RELUCTANT TO GIVE UP THE OLD SYSTEM (PARA
3D).
THESE PEOPLE HAVE WORKED UNDER THE PLANNED ECONOMY SO
LONG THAT THEY DO NOT BELIEVE
IN OR UNDERSTAND THE
BASIC PRECEPTS OF A MARKET ECONOMY.
THEY ARE NOT
ASSUAGED BY ECONOMIC REFORMISTS WHO GIVE THE REFORMS
THE WARM-SOUNDING TITLE OF A "SOCIALIST MARKET
ECONOMY".
THE REFORMERS CHARGE THESE HARDLINERS WITH
HAMSTRINGING THE ECONOMIC REFORMS CALLED FOR
IN THE 8TH
FYP AND WARN THAT,
IF THESE OBSTACLE -MAKERS ARE NOT
STOPPED,
THE WHOLE REFORM PROCESS COULD FAIL.
