"General impression of Li at the news conference: Serious, attentive, disciplined. Leaders who are comfortable in their own skin, exposed to other cultures and languages, and well educated in a discipline make better leaders."

　　Douglas Paal, Vice-president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, a Washington think tank

　　"Li Keqiang&aposs solid education in law and economics equips him with the knowledge a leader needs. Li is the first Chinese premier with a legal background. His rich experience is also a huge advantage, having worked as head of China&aposs largest agricultural province, Henan, and the large industrial province of Liaoning. Li is a uniter who can rally people around him."

　　Cheng Li, Director of research at the Brookings Institution&aposs John L. Thornton China Center

　　"Having studied both law and economics, Premier Li Keqiang should be as well equipped as anyone to take on these two enormous future challenges and guide China down a pathway to this long-promised goal."

　　Orville Schell, Arthur Ross director of the Center on US-China Relations at the Asia Society

　　"Substance is more important than style, and implementation is more important than promises. Li Keqiang said: &aposRorming is about curbing government power. It is a self-imposed revolution that will require real sacrifice, and it will be painful.&apos The ultimate test is whether Li can carry out his pledges of economic and social rorms that promise to improve the lives of poor people."

　　Bonnie Glaser, Senior adviser for Asia in the Freeman Chair of China Studies, Center for Strategic and International Studies

　　"Li&aposs informal style appealed to me, as did his more realistic goals. I agree with him that we should wait and see if the new leaders walk the walk. Five words: Hope tempered with patience always. To my Western eye, this is a good sign. If Li is comfortable in his own skin, he can accomplish more. Li&aposs ability to speak English will also help make him real to the Western world. If only the United States had leaders who spoke Chinese!

　　Robert Berring, Law professor at the University of California, who teaches China&aposs legal system

　　"Li Keqiang&aposs new-stated intentions are good to hear. However, observers will be waiting to see how life changes on the ground. It will be important to demonstrate real changes in the ways that the bureaucracy deals with the wider population."

　　Rana Mitter, professor of the History and Politics of Modern China, Institute for Chinese Studies, University of Oxford

　　"Li Keqiang and the new Chinese government aim to reduce ostentation and bureaucratic visits and fight corruption, which has been done in a very visible way at the highest levels. This appears to indicate the central government&aposs commitment to a change in governance, which offers hope."

　　Peter Ho, Chair professor of Chinese Economy and Development at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands

　　"One of the big challenges Premier Li Keqiang will face will be to reduce social inequalities, and especially inequalities between people living in cities and in the countryside. Therore, the wish of the new Chinese government to create new cities and develop urbanization has to be supported by the international community. This can also provide very interesting opportunities for foreign companies in this sector."

　　Bernard Dewit, chairman of the Belgian-Chinese Chamber of Commerce

　　"The first paragraph of Li&aposs speech highlights that we should closely follow the rule of law. One of the intentions of his repeated mentions of &aposurbanization&apos has been to better promote it through discussion. Helping &aposthose who desire to integrate into city life&apos means to promote urbanization while complying with farmers&apos wishes, and not engaging in forced urbanization."

　　Yi Peng, Research fellow at the National Development and Rorm Commission&aposs China Center for Urban Development

　　"Li acted confidently, being familiar with economic and legal affairs, and had a clear line of thinking. He talked about policy objectives in his own words rather than bureaucratic expressions. He talked about the functions of government, corruption, institutional rorm, urbanization, food safety, environmental protection, foreign affairs, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao and other important issues ... His manner of speaking and the commitments he made bring great hope to the Chinese people."

　　Guan Qingyou, Assistant dean of Minsheng Securities Research Institute

　　"I&aposm glad the voices of law professionals are getting stronger and their social status is higher. China must be led by those who know the law."

　　He Bing, Deputy dean of China University of Political Science and Law

　　"The premier&aposs bachelor degree in law and doctorate in economics speak for themselves. He is clear of mind and strong in systemic logic."

　　Wang Qi, Investment manager and head of trading at China Securities

　　"Li&aposs beli in being righteous and just, as well as doing things the correct way, guarantees the rights of the people and is truly the &aposVoice of China&apos."

　　Li Mingsheng, Author and three-time winner of the Luxun Literature Prize

　　"Li&aposs views on urbanization are exciting: Finding solutions suitable for local conditions, ensuring the protection of agricultural land and stressing food safety. It is gratifying to see him take the basic needs of the 250 million migrant workers into prime consideration."

　　Chen Li, Deputy director of Shaanxi Provincial Public Security Department

　　"Premier Li&aposs down-to-earth speech shed light on the hope of the country and was very inspiring. "

　　Lu Qiyuan, Director of Jinzongxin Investment, Shenzhen

　　"His speeches match the mood of the audience; if he sees there is deep mutual understanding he will speak a lot. Kind and nostalgic, with integrity and truth, you can see no dishonesty in him."

　　Li Gaolan, A writer in Hainan province
