Article TitleTalking again : China and America on ASEAN's stage.

AbstractThis year's conference of ASEAN opened in Brunei last week, no "bilateral" was so eagerly anticipated or closely watched as that between Chinese Foreign Minister Qian Qichen and U.S. Secretary of State Warren Christopher. The 90-minute discussion produced no breakthrough in Sino-U.S. ties, which are sorely strained after Washington permitted a "private" visit by Taiwan President Lee Teng-hui and Beijing arrested Chinese-American human-rights activist Harry Wu. But the session raised some hopes for progress further down the line.
