Beijing Media Help Propagate Economic Knowledge

<p>[By reporter Sun Jie (1327 2638) Beijing XINHUA Domestic Service
in Chinese 2123 GMT 12 Jun 92]
</p>
<p> [Text] Beijing, 12 June (XINHUA)--Certain news media in the
capital have opened new columns recently to educate their
readers on basic knowledge about a commodity economy, such as
explaining what stocks and futures trading are.
</p>
<p> Because China has entered a new stage of reform and opening
up this year, new issues about reform and certain economic
undertakings also appear continuously. While people are watching
closely the development of various reform and opening-up
projects, they are also eager to know certain basics about a
commodity economy. Certain newspapers have therefore opened new
columns to satisfy their readers' needs in this area. Since May,
RENMIN RIBAO has opened a special column, called "The ABC's of
Commodity Economy," on its economic page to talk about stocks.
Recent editions of JINGJI CANKAO BAO have prominently published
several articles in a special column entitled "Serial Talks
About GATT and China's Foreign Trade." From different angles,
these articles expounded the major impacts that China's GATT
membership would have on Chinese enterprises and the nation's
foreign trade policy, as well as what countermeasures the nation
should take. CANKAO XIAOXI [Reference Information], which
publishes mostly news reports translated from foreign wire
services, has also opened a new column about stocks. The Central
People's Radio Network, in its prime-time "Economic Life"
program, has also been regularly informing its listeners about
commodity economy knowledge, which they want to know about.
</p>
<p> One conspicuous characteristic of some papers' economic
columns is that they encourage their readers to participate. For
its special column called "How Did You Become an Investor?"
JINGJI RIBAO encourages its readers to talk about their personal
experiences in becoming investors. Thus, in addition to
experiences, the paper also educates its readers on economics.
BEIJING RIBAO's front-page special column "Questions and Answers
About Reform and Opening Up" is a favorite with readers. So far
the paper has published more than 60 small but very informative
columns in which readers' questions about commodity economy were
answered by experts.
