China’s Xi to address key reform anniversary

    President Xi Jinping will make a major speech tomorrow to mark the 40th anniversary of China’s reform and opening up. Xi will speak at a conference to be held at the Great Hall of the People from 10 a.m. (0200 GMT) on Tuesday, Xinhua said on Sunday. The report was in line with what diplomatic sources had previously told Reuters. Former leader Deng Xiaoping initiated China’s historic reform and opening up in 1978, followed by a series of capitalist experiments that lifted much of China out of poverty and turned it into an economic powerhouse.
