The China Changxing International Trade and Investment Exposition will
take place from October 8 to 11 in Changxing County in East China's
Zhejiang Province.
The trade and investment promotional event is jointly sponsored by
People's Daily and Nihon Keizai Shimbun Inc (Nikkei), a leading business
news company in Japan, and organized by the county government.
The 11th Sino-Japanese Economic Forum, as part of the expo, will be held
in Changxing on October 9, in an effort to promote trade and economic
ties between the neighbouring countries. The forum will discuss
Sino-Japanese economic co-operation during China's 11th Five-Year Plan
(2006-10) period.
Discussion topics will include the emerging business opportunities in the
financial services sector, the possibility of improving co-operation in
environmental protection and agricultural industrialization.
The biennial event has been held 10 sessions since 1984. This will be the
first time Changxing County will host it.
Changxing was picked because of its economic strength and booming foreign
investment. It ranked among top 100 counties in Chinese mainland.
In 2005, the county's production value increased by 15 per cent, its
finance revenue grew by 20.49 per cent and per capita income grew by 13.5
per cent, compared with figures from 2004.
The county's economic development zone has tried to fully mobilize every
possible positive factor to attract projects and solve development
problems, an effort which has paid off.
From January to April this year, six projects were agreed bringing
foreign capital of US$10.1 million, of which US$5.75million was actually
finalized.
