China will adhere to the win-win strategy of opening up and work with the international community to contribute to the overall recovery of the world economy, said President Hu Jintao on January 17.

He made the remarks in a written interview with The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.

The president said following the path of peaceful development is the solemn commitment of the Chinese Government and people to the international community.

"Specifically, it means that we will achieve national development by our hard and creative work, by reforming and improving our institutions, and by maintaining friendship and mutually beneficial cooperation with other countries," he said.

Hu also called on the international community to further advance the international financial system reform, and to build a new and more equal and balanced global partnership for development.
