Characteristics of my country’s monetary policy in 2007

Actually, you can go to the central bank’s website and look at the 2007 currency implementation report. There are a lot of useful things in it. Below is an excerpt I hope is useful to you.

The inflation situation in China and the world as a whole, especially in Asia, is severe. The trade surplus is too large, there are too many foreign exchange reserves and China's compulsory foreign exchange settlement system has resulted in too much base currency. Foreign crude oil prices hit new highs, the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis, and the U.S. interest rate cut have all prompted my country to implement a tightening monetary policy. The Central Economic Work Conference determined that the monetary policy will be changed from "stable" to "tight".
