WASHINGTON - The World Bank said on Tuesday its President Robert Zoellick will visit China from Feb 26 to 28 to help present a major joint report about China's economic opportunities and challenges for the years ahead.

The report, jointly prepared by the Development Research Center (DRC) of the State Council of China and the World Bank, examines China's strategic choices towards 2030 and makes recommendations on the future structure of China's growth model.

"To successfully negotiate its path over the next two decades, China has the opportunity to build on its strengths to meet structural growth challenges within and abroad," Zoellick said in a statement.

Zoellick will attend and address a high-level conference on Feb 27 to launch a joint study about China and will also meet with state leaders to exchange views on global issues, the future directions of China's continued reform and development, and the evolving partnership with the Bank for the future, the statement said.
