We require Helmut Kohl’s understanding of the need to identify the big decisions in politics, and to get those decisions right. We need leaders with sufficient mastery of detail, like China’s last premier Zhu Rongji, who can not only tell us how they will get us from A to Z, but can actually lead us from A to B.
我们要德国前总理科尔这样的人物，不但能认识到锁定关键政治决策的紧迫性，还能将这些决策很好地落实下来。我们还需要如中国前总理朱镕基这样对全局了如指掌的领袖，不但能告诉我们起点和终点在哪里，还能具体带领我们一步一步向目标迈进。
