    People in China as in other parts of the world are waiting to see how U.S. President-
elect Barack Obama will deal with global problems such as the current economic slowdown
once he takes office. As Sam Beattie reports from Beijing there is widespread hope for
closer U.S.-Chinese cooperation.
    For many students in Beijing Mr. Obama symbolizes all that is possible in the United
States. He's a popular winner here seen as a self-made man who has made it to the top.
    "I think he is very charming and a president who can create a new era " said Zhang
Wei a university student. "I like him very much and most of my friends do too." Ni Weibo
another university student agrees. "Sino-U.S. relations still need more cooperation "
she said. "I think he will help take it to a new era."
    China's President Hu Jintao congratulated Mr. Obama within hours of his victory saying
he hoped bilateral ties could be made stronger.
    Political analysts here say China will be looking for the incoming president to avoid
contentious issues such as Taiwan's independence human rights and Tibet.
    Instead they say Beijing would like Mr. Obama to focus on solving the global economic
crisis and to help China's slowing economy by opening up U.S. markets.
    But trade relations might be a sticking point says Renmin University's Professor of
International Studies Shi Yinhong.
    He warns "There is a possibility that President Obama will take some protectionist
measures which China will not accept then trade disputes could develop to a degree that
we have not seen ever before."
    Despite making the headlines Mr. Obama faces some tough challenges in managing the
U.S. relationship with China. China is now a stronger and more confident country than the
China his predecessors dealt with. And in this time of economic uncertainty analysts say
it's a country with which Mr. Obama will want to maintain a good relationship.
