 Quote:
 
 Wu Jinglian "told fellow economists at a forum in Beijing on Monday [Feb 10, 2014] that the government had to deal with the rise of 'dead companies'’ – state-owned enterprises with high debt levels that depended on subsidies to survive. * * * His comments, summarized in the China Securities Journal 中国证券报
 
 "Mr Wu laments what he views as a lost decade for reform under former President Hu Jintao and former Prime Minister Wen Jiabao
 
 My comment:
 (a) The translation was not poorly made. I read the first several paragraphs, and did not understand what it said. So I turned to the English original.
 (b) I do not read the summary in China Securities Journal, but consider Mr Wu's diagnosis or prescription lame.
