Socialist Market Economy - China's Key to Success

Here is an interview with Wen Jiabao, Prime Minister of China. He expressed an insightful understanding of Adam Smith's theory of economics. He pointed out that Adam Smith actually wrote two books - on the invisible hand (i.e .market) and the visible hand (i.e. role of government). When economist applied only one side of Adam Smith's theory, the results are not satisfactory. It is now time for Singapore to learn from China about economics and governance. View this interview.
