Macao Businessmen Delegation to Visit Western China
A delegation composed of more than 70 managers of Macao's small and medium-sized enterprises left here Sunday for a week-long visit to China's western areas.
The visit will enable the Macao businessmen to have a better understanding on China's Go-West campaign and the concrete needs of China's western areas in the upcoming economic take-off, said Stanley Au, president of the Macao Association of Small and Medium- Sized Enterprises, who will lead the delegation.
Members of the delegation are from the sectors of trade, finance, wholesale and retail sales, manufacturing, building, engineering, tourism and telecommunications in Macao. They plan to visit Shaanxi, Chongqing and Beijing.
Au said before his departure that the visit will also raise the popularity of Macao's enterprises in the western China, and the delegation members expect to find business partners.
Macao's enterprises should play the role as a bridge between China's inland and the outside world in the economic development, he said.
The business people from Macao and western China will have a chance to exchange experience and strengthen cooperation during the visit, he added.
It is of great significance for Macao's enterprises to step out of Macao and involve themselves in the campaign of developing the western China, said Edmund Ho Hau Wah, chief executive of the Macao special administrative region, in a recent meeting with the delegation.
