US firms urged to reject tariff plan - The Standard

China's state media has urged industrial and commercial sectors in the United States to rally against President Donald Trump's tariff plan. 

Trump threatened extra $100 billion in tariffs on Chinese goods after China last week imposed US$3 billion of tariffs on US fruits, nuts, wine and pork immediately after the US unveiled $50 billion tariff plan. 

"We call on the international business community including the United States industrial and commercial circles to take prompt and effective measures and urge the US government to correct its errors," said state newspaper People's Daily, according to Reuters report. 

Also, China made it clear last week that it would respond fiercely if Trump moves ahead with additional tariffs.
