It’s rarely the case in the world that a developing country like China chooses to hold an import-themed expo. The expo will not only provide new opportunities for countries around the world to expand export to China, but also create a platform for countries to engage in international trade and share business opportunities with each other. It represents China’s sincere wish to open its market to the world, and shows China’s active role as a major power in undertaking the responsibility of pushing forward economic globalization.
China welcomes countries all over the world to board the train of China’s development either for a fast ride or for a free ride and products and services with strengths, characteristics and competitiveness are welcomed to enter China’s vast market with a population of 1.3 billion. In the next five years, China is expected to import products and services worth more than ten trillion dollars.It is our sincere hope to, through holding of China International Import Expo, keep promoting trade liberalization and facilitation, make concerted efforts to make the cake of global trade bigger, give play to the leading role of economic and trade cooperation on the Belt and Road Initiative, make good use of the driving role of international trade on the growth of world economy, and contribute to a more vigorous, inclusive and sustainable economic globalization.
