Ok folks. Good afternoon. My name is john hammering. I am very pleased to have you all come, today. We will have a wonderful afternoon together. I look forward to this important conference. But i just say we have a little safety announcement for everyone. If we do have an incident where i have to ask you to get up and leave and follow me, the exits are right behind me. There are three doors. The stairs that take us to the street are closest to this door right here. We will no downstairs and meet across at National Geographic and get some ice cream or something.

In the next panel will cover economics, global issues and politics. Scott kennedy will share that session. We had a number of participants who helped to write the papers or joined us in study groups to review the papers so this is a representative group, claiming that anyone who is involved but some of the key authors for each of the papers were going to address in the panels. Bonnie glaser, my colleague at csis and director by China Project will talk about the asiapacific papers. Were going to ask that panelists not to summarize the papers but identify between the american and chinese papers the issues of convergence, divergence and some recommendations. My friend zhu feng were present on the asiapacific strategy issue after bonnie. Then will ship to the military relationship. David finkelst
