【新編劍橋商務(wù)英語初級】9.1 戰(zhàn)略會議

OK, so now that we've looked at the political, economic, social and technological analyses, I'd like to briefly complete the analysis by looking at the legal and environmental aspects. Yes, I imagine the legal situation is very complex. Well, you know, the legal factors were not so complicated until recently. The problem is that things are changing all the time in China. You know they recently changed the law on private property, and nobody can really predict what those changes are going to mean. So the whole thing is very difficult to comment on. It's a very unpredictable situation. I see. Well I think we will need to look at that in more detail. I'm a bit worried about the implications there. And what about the environmental considerations? Well, obviously we need to do an Environmental Impact Assessment. The Chinese government are strict about corporate social responsibility, especially for joint ventures. So we will need to give them assurances and guarantees that we will stay within the emission targets. On the other hand, the areas where we could build plants are not environmentally protected, so that isn't going to be a problem initially. Great, something positive at last. By the way, what's the Chinese position with regard to the Kyoto protocol?
