"China now is very concerned about world opinion. It is a very good thing," he added.
Moore also spoke highly of China's role in world economy. He said Chinese economy and world economy are closely linked. If China's economy slows down, world economy will also slow down.
In today's globalization, it is natural to have trade disputes between countries. It is normal for the EU companies to sue U.S. companies and U.S. companies to sue Chinese companies. "It is important that they seek arbitration and settle disputes within the WTO framework," said Moore.
More also hoped China to play roles in the WTO and G-20 and contribute more to pushing forward the Doha Round of WTO trade talks.
Moore said, the New Zealand-China free trade agreement is the first free trade deal China signed with a Western country. In the past one year since the signing of the free trade agreement, the two countries witnessed steady increase of trade volume.
"No doubt, China will be strongest economy in the world in the future," said Moore.
