An investment and trade fair was held November 16 in Nanning the capital city of southwest China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
Over 7,000 businessmen, including some 1,000 from abroad, attended the fair, which was co-sponsored by the autonomous regional government, China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), Canada's association for the promotion of economy and technology, and other organizations.
