"Li's 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's 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's legal system

"Li Keqiang's 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's 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
