Beijing Prepares for Trade Fair in Hong Kong
More than 80 investment projects involving millions of US dollars have been selected for the fourth session of the Beijing-Hong Kong Economic Co-operation Fair, Monday's Chinadaily reported.
The announcement was made here in the run-up to the session that will take place in Hong Kong from November 2 to 3.
Over 50 projects among those for presentation are for service industries, including infrastructure construction, commerce, tourism and real estate, said Shen Baochang, spokesman for the Beijing Municipal People's Government.
China's entry into the WTO and the central government's "go west" policy will provide big co-operation opportunities for Beijing and Hong Kong, said Zhu Ying, chief representative of Hong Kong Trade Promotion Council.
Zhu described Beijing as a "Bridge Tower" for the country's development in the western region, implying that Beijing may transfer technology and management expertise to the western region and introduce investors to those remote regions.
