BEIJING (Bloomberg): China and the world must work together to boost global economic growth, Vice President Wang Qishan said, vowing that Beijing will continue opening up more to foreign investment at a time when more countries are raising barriers over national security concerns.

"China cannot develop in isolation of the world and nor can the world develop without China,” Wang said on Wednesday (Nov 17) at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum in Singapore.
