US currency has global context
The United States ought to realize that making the US dollar an international currency means detaching the dollar from a purely national context and limiting its own monetary and financial tools to regulate its national economic situation.
The rise of China to be the world's second largest economy means that China's economy has a global significance rather than simply a bilateral one. The US should resolve its own domestic economic problems rather than resorting to destabilizing the global economy. It is time to detach the US economy from the global economy in the context of an international currency. This is today's reality. There are enough currencies to facilitate global trade. It is time to give more substance to alternatives to the US dollar as the international currency, so the US can print as much money as it likes without sending inflation sky high in other countries.

Five necessities for love
Comment on "There's more to life than money" (China Daily, May 17)
While money isn't everything, it is the most important thing. The British pop group The Beatles had a great song Money can't buy me love. But looking around we can see that for many money did buy love. For girls in Singapore a man must have the 5 Cs, cash, credit card, condo, character and career. Chinese girls are also increasing their stake.
