2015年09月21日 西南美国商会



国西南美国商会会长王晓东先生于9月7日赴华盛顿参加了为期三天的2015华盛顿“敲门游说”之旅,同众多中美两国政要、专家智囊团、商业组织以及学术机构洽谈交流。此次华盛顿“敲门游说”之行由上海美国商会牵头举办,中国西南美国商会以及北京美国商会支持、在华投资的美资企业代表参与,旨在将美资企业在华投资的宝贵经验传达给美国政府以促进两国经济的良性互动与美资企业的在华发展。

AmCham Southwest China Chairman Benjamin Wang recently returned from AmCham Shanghai’s 2015 Doorknock Delegation to Washington D.C. He and the other delegates spent September 7-10 meeting with administration officials and members of Congress as well as China experts at think-tanks, business associations, and academic institutions. Made up of U.S. company executives working in China, the delegation offers U.S. policymakers on-the-ground insights into U.S. companies’ experiences in China.
次访问华盛顿期间,代表团同包括美国商务部长Penny Pritzker女士、美国贸易副代表Robert Holleyman先生、美国国家安全委员会国际经济高级主管Rory MacFarquhar先生、财政预算委员会主席Paul Ryan先生、民主党领袖Nancy Pelosi女士等白宫高级官员进行了会晤。会晤中,中国当前的商业环境依然是美国官员们关注的热点话题。此外,白宫官员也通过同代表团的交流为习主席即将启程的访美之旅广纳谏言。

During the trip, the delegates met with Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker, Deputy U.S. Trade Representative Robert Holleyman, National Security Council Senior Director for International Economics Rory MacFarquhar, Chairman of the House Committee on Ways and Means Paul Ryan, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, and other key policymakers within the Obama administration. The Doorknock’s contacts showed consistent interest in business conditions in China and sought recommendations for President Xi Jinping’s upcoming visit to the United States.
谈期间,美国政府官员关注的议题主要有网络安全,知识产权保护,市场准入机制以及中国南海的争端问题等。代表团一行强调了要维持中美良好关系的重要性,分享了他们在华投资的经验并指出美国贸易对中国正在进行的经济体制改革起到了推动作用。

While U.S. officials remain concerned about cyber-security, IPR enforcement, market access, and territorial disputes in the South China Seas, Doorknock delegates emphasized the need for maintaining good relations with China. They shared positive experiences of U.S. businesses operating in China and pointed out that U.S. businesses help promote economic reform within China.
次访问华盛顿的“敲门游说”之旅硕果累累,将美资企业在中国发展状况直观地反映给了美国当局并为美国政府官员进行政策决策提供了一手资料。通过此次访问,代表团成员在习主席访问华盛顿之前将在华投资的美资企业在经营中遇到的问题及对策陈述给了美国政府相关部门,为中美经贸的良性互动起到了桥梁作用,取得圆满成功!

The delegates believed the Doorknock succeeded in giving policymakers a first-hand, balanced view of the U.S. business situation in China. They hope the information they shared will help inform Xi Jinping’s visit so that it serves as an opportunity for fostering greater cooperation between the U.S. and Chinese governments.
