China Minister Xie Leaves Peru Early to Fix Economy (Update1)
By Rob Delaney
Nov. 7 (Bloomberg) -- China's Finance Minister Xie Xuren was called back from an international economic conference in Peru before the meeting began, following orders from Beijing to help resolve problems at home, an organizer of the event said.
Xie left Trujillo, Peru, where Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation finance officials are meeting this week, shortly after arriving at 11:00 a.m. on Nov. 5, Gladys Otero de Swinnen, protocol director for the conference, said in an interview.
``They told him he has to resolve an economic problem and that he's the only one who could do so,'' de Swinnen said. ``He was complaining because he had to fly 32 hours to get here and then he had to fly another 32 hours to get back.''
