124. Linda Jakobson and Dean Knox, 'New Foreign Policy Actors in China', Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, September 2010, http://books.sipri.org/files/ PP/SIPRIPP26.pdf. Linda Jakobson, among others, has argued that the State Planning Commission, a very conservative bureaucratic entity, viewed global markets with mistrust and saw investments in equity as an important means of ensuring energy security. Although the former point may be true, many analyses by the Energy Research Institute and affiliated organisations did not endorse upstream investments, instead pointing to the need to diversify oil substitutes, increase the share of natural gas in China's energy mixture, enhance efficiencies and energy saving, or pursue energy cooperation with other Asian consumers.
