Rice said the US welcomes a strong Chinese economy and believes China's economic development will benefit global economic growth.

She said the United States hopes to set up more open economic lines of communication with China, through which the two can properly handle relevant issues and strengthen co-operation.

Rice left Beijing later yesterday for Thailand and will go on to Japan and the Republic of Korea.

Meanwhile, the annual meeting of the US-China Joint Commission on Commerce and Trade (JCCT) will be held in Beijing today. US Trade Representative Rob Portman, Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez and Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns will attend.

The opening up of the Chinese market and the protection of intellectual property rights will be high on the agenda.
