George W. Bush on the phone on cementing economic dialogue and promoting

recent typhoon that hit several coastal provinces in southeast China.

Bush said Washington hoped that the U.S.-China economic dialogue and
cooperation would be enhanced, which would surely inject fresh impetus to the
already robust economic and trade relations between the two countries.
Hu said that with the strengthening of the economic ties between China and
the United States, enhanced bilateral economic dialogue would be conducive to
the economic and trade cooperation and the development of the constructive
cooperative relationship between the two countries.
The dialogue would also bring about positive impact on the global economic
growth, as well as the world's stability and security, Hu said.
China would like to continue contacts with the United States in this respect,
Hu added.
