BEIJING: China's pending cybersecurity law will not create obstacles for foreign business, China's Foreign Ministry said, responding to concerns by international business lobbies over the planned rules. 

More than 40 global business groups last week petitioned Premier Li Keqiang, according to a copy of a letter seen by Reuters, urging China to revise draft cyber rules they believe are vague and discriminate against foreign enterprises.
