  G-20 leaders in the past, but some of which are new to the G-20 process or at least have not been  
emphasized to any great degree, including some broad economic governance issues, some  
environmental issues, development policy, and green growth," the official said.
      During her meetings, Ms Clinton will be emphasizing some themes that are included in the broad
  G-20 rights. Although, she will not be going to get into the details of the G-20 financial part of the
  process, she will call for an open, free, transparent, and fair global economic system.
      Ms Clinton will address things like anti-competitive government practices or interference, which
  include the ways in which governments artificially distort (歪曲) markets or create uneven economic 
 playing fields, the official said.
