China-ASEAN Expo receives support from WTO and ITC

The China-ASEAN Expo won support from two super organizations (the WTO and ITC). At present, the CEO of ITC, Arancha Gonzalezhas, formally replied to the secretariat of the China-ASEAN Expo. She said, "It's a great pleasure for ITC to be invited to take part in the 11th China - ASEAN Expo." It will give support to the organization committee of the China - ASEAN Expo. At the appointed time, ITC will appoint high-level officials to lead a delegation to attend the expo and hold a seminar with the theme of "Trade Development between China and the Most Underdeveloped Southeast Asian Nations."

The China-ASEAN Expo is the only grand meeting with the theme of the China-ASEAN free trade zone for international economic and trade communication. The commercial opportunities of the free trade zone will be fully enjoyed by all countries, especially developing countries and those in transition. The participation of the leaders of global economic integration (WTO) and the boosters for trade improvement and economic transition of developing countries (ITC) helps China and the ASEAN integrate into global economic cooperation, thus producing far-reaching significance for the expo's global strategy.

After the participation of the WTO and ITC, the expo obtained their advice and guidance in promoting global economic integration, establishing a complete and permanent multilateral trading system, and promoting trade development of developing countries and those in transition. The WTO and ITC will also recommend the China-ASEAN Expo to relevant institutions and organizations. This means that the expo will quicken its pace in marching toward global trade service from regional trade service.

The expo, as a national-grade and international grand meeting for economic and trade communication, will make full preparations and efforts for globalization. It will set up an invited guests mechanism for the first time, successfully invite Australia to serve as the VIP country for this expo, combine the RCEP (regional comprehensive economic partnership agreement, i.e. 10+6) negotiation progress, broaden the service range from 10+1 to 10+6, and host a presentation on new opportunities for middle and small-sized enterprises when facing markets of RCEP countries.
