If Chinese officials are serious about pursuing this goal, they should stop focusing on the SDR and start developing stable and liquid financial markets that are not subject to official manipulation.

如果中国官员们是真心想实现上述目标，他们就得放弃盲目追求特别提款权，并着手推动一个不受官方操纵的，稳定且流动的金融市场。只有这样国际社会才会接纳人民币成为一个合适的国际交易和储备货币。而八月十一日的那一连串举动说明中国人据此还有很长的路要走。
