I’m happy to invite you to attend the lecture by Emeritus Professor WU Jinglian, who will be the invited recipient of the Kuo-Shu Liang Award and will deliver the Kuo-Shu Liang Memorial address, entitled: “China’s Economic Achievements and Current Challenges”.

His recent appointments include: Research Fellow of the Development Research Centre (DRC) of the State Council; Deputy Director of the Advisory Committee for State Informatization; Professor of CASS, Bejing University and CEIBS; Chief Editor Comparative Studies and the Journal of Legal and Economic Studies; and also Adviser to the Executive Committee of the International Economic Association (IEA).

Professor Wu received the Sun Yefang Award in Economics – China’s highest award for economic research – in 1984, 1986, 1988, 1990 and 1992. He was honored by the International Academy of Management’s Award of Excellence in 2003; the China Economics Prize – Outstanding Contribution to China’s Economy Award in 2005; and the China Economic Theory Innovation Award in 2010.
