Under the threat of another trade and monetary crisis, they are at last realizing that they cannot continue piling up vast trade surpluses and treat development aid as a kind of export promotion. You will surely warn them of the political spillover effects if they fail to follow through on this promptly. You should also press them (again) to do something about that bureaucratic screen that they have...
