    The government work report delivered at the opening day of the legislative session is similar to the State of the Union address. How will China cover issues that, at times, have disturbed Sino-U.S. relations, for instance, cyber security, human rights, Tibet and foreign trade policies?

    Also a quick reminder: China is the largest creditor to the United States, and Chinese President Xi Jinping is scheduled to visit the United States in September.

    5. The European Union is the largest trading partner of China, while China is the second largest trading partner of the EU.

    Coincidentally and interestingly, as China kicks off its annual two sessions, the historic QE program launched by the European Central Bank will start to take effect.

    What will China's policymakers do to ward off the possible spill-over of a depreciating euro? Will China fine tune its monetary and trade policies? It is expected that the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road will be detailed during the two sessions.

    What opportunities will this gigantic pan-Eurasia commerce network create for European investors?

    6. China's neighboring countries are a critical part of the "Belt and Road" initiatives.

    The joint construction of high speed rail, ports and pipelines will inject vigor into local economies, creating more jobs.

    The "Belt and Road" initiatives, synergistic with booming free trade zones, have the potential to rejuvenate the entire region.

    Uncertainties, however, still overshadow ties between China and its neighbors. Territorial disputes are far from being resolved, while tensions between China and Japan are showing no clear signs of easing in the year that marks the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II.

    The sessions may shed light on how Chinese lawmakers respond.

    7. China's presence in Africa, its "brother, friend and partner," has been growing fast.

    As Africa's biggest trading partner, China is endeavoring to increase China-Africa trade volume to 400 billion U.S. dollars by 2020.

    In China's latest round of industrial upgrading, to achieve quality growth, there are opportunities for the labor-intensive parts of the "world factory" to be relocated to areas where labor is inexpensive. Africa could be one destination.

    8. China's stance on hot global issues.

    At the two sessions, China would make clear its stance on hot global issues. Last year, Foreign Minister Wang Yi talked about a wide range of world issues from the Ukraine crisis and the Afghanistan issue to the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue.

    What would Wang say this year when hot issues keep emerging?

    So heed to the message from the two sessions. Find your answers in the upcoming big political event.
