SHANGHAI, Nov 6(ABC): The fifth China International Import Expo (CIIE), the world’s first import-themed national-level expo, is sure to serve as an important window for more countries to enjoy China’s development opportunities.
Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday addressed the opening ceremony via video, stressing that China will work with all countries and all parties to share opportunities in the vast Chinese market, from China’s institutional opening-up and from deepened international cooperation. The expo was designed by Xi for the very purpose of expanding China’s opening-up and turning China’s enormous market into enormous opportunities for the world. This pioneering move in the history of international trade is regarded as a “golden gate” leading to the vast Chinese market.
Since its debut in 2018, the CIIE has become a showcase of China’s new development paradigm, a platform for high-standard opening-up, and a public good for the whole world.
