As requested:

For this sensitive topic meetings at the highest level need to be arranged. Initially, this should be done privately and not on protocol, this allows th= idea to be shaped and getting the right Chinese stakeholders involved. We r=quire support by select key ministries and bodies, all initiated and backed=by the state council. This is particularly important in the current times cr= new leadership. It must be clear that this is a "Chinese idea", good for C=ina.

I would need to learn about the project but I am tempted to suggest a meetin= privately with former President Jiang Zemin who has put the new (current) l=adership in place and who commands vast control/respect. As first step, it m= be wise if this meeting is not even done by BG personally so "nobody loses=face". [Note: maybe I come with Jiang Zemin's grandson who is a Harvard gr=duate to the US to meet BG and you, this could be a good way - sounds silly=but is very effective].

Capital is not the issue, the political and high profile sensitivity is the i=sue.

I would refrain from utilising famous, old China experts (ie HK) since it w=uld make it fatally high profile and automatically involve Chinese individu=ls who will hinder the process, possibly derail it.

In essence we will aim to build quick consensus with the State Council membe=s, then move it to a more public platform (at the right time when it is a "=one deal" and decided to go ahead).
