美國腹地美中協(xié)會主席鮑勃·霍爾頓在致辭中表達了對自由貿(mào)易的支持，以及美中西部地區(qū)對海南合作展望。他提到，海南是中國的一個獨特省份，是中美完全有可能實現(xiàn)合作的一個絕佳例證。自由貿(mào)易是推動不同文化國家間交流的重要橋梁，并能為合作各方帶來經(jīng)濟繁榮。舉辦此次網(wǎng)絡(luò)研討會，目的在于推動雙方對話，并再次強調(diào)開放與合作的重要性。阻擋自由貿(mào)易的障礙消除得越多，各方就能與國際市場更加深度地融合。開放不僅包括貨物和服務(wù)貿(mào)易自由，更包括思想觀念的開放與創(chuàng)新，公眾參與度提高以及面向投資者的開放政策，后者見效時間雖然較慢，但對社會發(fā)展作用更關(guān)鍵。通過自由貿(mào)易和全球化合作，人們能夠引導(dǎo)全球化往順應(yīng)民心的方向發(fā)展。在推進對外開放和全球化進程中，期待海南為全世界創(chuàng)造的新機遇。

Based on his long study of China’s economy, Professor Doug Guthrie from Thunderbird School of Global Management at The Arizona State University stressed the significance of trade for two countries in that trade could help achieve stability of bilateral ties and avoid conflicts. China had contributed a number of major inventions to human progress. And now, after 4 decades of reform and opening-up, the construction of Hainan FTP not only shows China’s determination of further opening up, but also the attempt of decentralization during the economic development. The development of Hainan FTP, will play an important role in China’s opening up strategy, and bring new growth to the development of trade and invesment, tourism and consumption, sci-tech and education.
