AIIB head fields questions from news executives

Endy M. Bayuni, editor-in-chief, Jakarta Post

Will the Chinese government ask the AIIB to finance all its infrastructure projects?

The United States basically shuffled the order of the World Bank. Japan has numerous financial assistance programs. Many European countries also have their own financing systems. So the way they handle this is also offering some experience.

If I have to be specific about the relationship between AIIB and Chinese financial systems, I do not rule out the possibility that we can work together if they follow our standards and rules. For instance we have Chinese development institutions, and they may finance ideas or infrastructure in some countries.
