China's Finance Minister Jin Renqing rejected US calls for the country to step up its currency reform, saying China "will not listen to someone else's conductor when doing what we need to do", the Wall Street Journal reported. The comments come ahead of a visit by US Treasury Secretary John Snow, who is scheduled to meet with Chinese officials in Beijing next week and is expected to push China to end currency controls that Washington says keep the yuan's value against the dollar too low and give Chinese exporters an unfair price advantage.
