| Research Abstract |
This research focuses on the Chinese economy as a starting point of the researches on economic relations in the 21st century among Asia countries including Japan. This research has two purposes : to clarify the problems that the current Chinese economy has and to propose roles that Japanese government and enterprises can play.

However, the improvement of the energy efficiency brings the favor to Japan in such various meanings as decrease of acid rain and oil price stabilization and China also can be a promising partner of Clean Development Mechanism permitted in Kyoto Protocol. The second point is stabilization in Chinese economy. The economy of China might be compared to a running bicycle that cannot help advancing ahead. To support China's smooth transition to a market based economy is a part of the crisis-management policy for Japan. The roles that the government and enterprises in Japan can play are large in the field of soft cooperation in macro control policies and business management in order to stabilize Chinese Economy.
