Increased recognition of China's relevance and heightened scrutiny has resulted in praise and criticism on a range of issues including development aid, climate change, trade, product quality standards, and regional peace and stability. 1) How can China capitalize on its strategic importance on global issues and build itself into a global partner? 2) How will China's relations with the major powers in the world, most notably the US, affect its endeavours to build a positive global image? 3) How can Chinese enterprises serve as ambassadors for strengthening China's image internationally?
