7.Food and product quality and safety, (i) the food and animal feeds contaminated with melamine and industrial chemical, counterfeit drugs and medical devices cause a serious hazard to consumers, the lack of well-developed third party logistics system and cold chain logistics(ii)Apply the international standards for food and product quality and safety, encourage investment in a logistics network to support food and product safety including cold chain logistic.(iii) The China government trends to adopt the international standard to avoid the banned export and support the investors to enter into logistic business(iv) China should be serious to control the standard of domestic products because the contaminated food and drug can discredit the products of China. And it takes a long time to restore their image.
8. Human Resources, (i) the Labor Contract Law’s statutory is unsuccessful to clarify some important terms for allowed uses of labor such as the “temporary auxiliary”, “substitute positions” and “economic layoff”. (ii) The government will make the Labor Contract Law more clearly in the important terms.

Since 2004 to 2009, the investment and economies of scale in China growth continuously. In 2006, white collar and skilled labor salary raise more than 5 times. In 2008, the staff income rates and standard of salary are higher in Mainland China than others Asian country. Moreover, the Chinese government has the policy to enhance the quality of skilled labor .However; the increasing labor costs may hamper China’s economic and social development ambition.
The movement on agricultural and food between 2005 – 2009 has no improvement and is taking a step backwards in transparency and fair implementation of rule. The food safety standard which is considered unfair practice and discrimination, still enforce against the foreign products such as its zero pathogen tolerance for common pathogen detection in raw meat and poultry on the other hand, Evidence show that the zero tolerance pathogen standard is non-existent. Moreover, we can observe that in May 2007, the US cattle population received a controlled risk status by OIE; China is the last state in Asia to sustain an absolute ban on US beef imports
A few years ago, the financial service of China was lack of transparency such as the appointment of a branch manager. Ambiguous wording in the existing regulation, however in 2009, the financial service is obviously advanced in the transparency and fairness .China continue financial liberalization which stimulate the financial institutions to compete and create the new product and service. Furthermore, the Small Lending Companies not only support the credit to SMEs but also commence to address the extensive problem of “gray-market “lending by unauthorized companies or person. And the government attempt to improve a national credit information system.
Intellectual property rights protection is positive improvement continuously in 2005-2009,
China emphasizes to solve the infringement of intellectual property more than ever before. We can observe form the outcome such as [1]in the first half of 2008, the State Intellectual Property Organization obtained 345,569 patent applications. It was increased twice from 2005, which had 173,327 invention patents.[2]From the beginning of 2008 to May 27,2008,there were 190,000 trademark examinations, an increase of 76.1 % over the same period a year earlier.
In conclusion, the overall business environment can satisfy the investors but the some resolutions of major problems are unsatisfied such as the transparency and so on. However, China attempts to enhance the transparency of bureaucratic and to render the fairness of competition. The Chinese have the strong power to consume the domestic and foreign product. Hence, China still remains attractive for the foreigner investors.
