Hadidi opens China Fair Jordan 2009

(MENAFN - Jordan Times) Industry and Trade Minister Amer Hadidi on Tuesday underlined the importance of the China Fair Jordan 2009 in boosting commercial ties between Jordan and China.

In a speech at the inauguration of the four-day exhibition, the minister stressed the Kingdom's keenness to boost trade exchange between the two countries, noting that exhibitions and investment forums help in increasing joint investments, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

Calling on Chinese and Jordanian businesspeople to study the implementation of joint investments, Hadidi stressed the government's keenness to provide support and facilities to Chinese investors.

Chinese Ambassador in Amman Yu Hongyang said the China Fair Jordan has realised several success stories since it first took place in 2004, adding that this is represented in the increase in number of exhibitors.

The ambassador described the fair as an opportunity to explore investments and increase bilateral trade exchange, indicating that the Chinese government repeatedly encourages investments in Jordan.

Over 500 Chinese companies are taking part in the fair that will run through November 20. Participating companies represent various industries such as building, machinery, automotive, energy, printing and general commodities.

Over 3,000 Chinese products are on display at the fair, which organisers say will provide an opportunity for networking and reaching deals.
