Good for their Citizens then. Take your time China, elevate your middle class with your economic might and show the world what you can become. Falling into the economic trap of what becomes open borders may not be in your favor past a few generations of the upper class.

In the past this was harder, then easier, then harder again...so whatever. It makes moving abroad more appealing to some Chinese (so they can earn a convertible currency rather than yuan), which isn't ideal for the Chinese government. I definitely don't think they should move to a convertible currency without a more stable financial system. They also rely on yuan being saved in China (because you can't invest your money easily outside) to drive cheaper investment capital in China.
