US businesses optimistic on China growth but bemoan unfair treatment

Beijing

US companies are more confident China will further open up to foreign investment in coming years, a top business lobby said on Tuesday, but it cautioned that three in four of its members do not feel welcomed by the Chinese government.

The American Chamber of Commerce in China also said in a report on its annual membership survey that "even-handed enforcement of laws and regulations regardless of shareholder nationality" and an open investment environment were needed to reduce trade frictions between China and the US.
