What they say

In Jiangsu, we saw different agricultural spaces and how they're using modern facilities that also fuel the economy. Since Jiangsu already has a very strong economy, they can be able to realize xiaokang very quickly. And I think it's a really good model that could be used in a lot of different provinces, cities, not only throughout China, but other places in the world as well.

I think China's miracle means development and hard work. In Jiangsu, I saw with my eyes artificial intelligence being used by Chinese people. The stories on this trip that we were showed were the miracle of China and what we've seen is so good.

The Jiangsu provincial government has done a very good job in this field of xiaokang, such as providing people with job opportunities through developing rural tourism. I would like to introduce these measures to the Arabic world to see how China deals with poverty. And they can understand that what measures they can take－if they have such a situation like China's－to provide a better life for people who live in the countryside.

Jiangsu was already a pretty prosperous province that enjoys good well-being, a high standard of life. China's demographics are changing very quickly because of the one-child policy. China is going to have a lot of elderly, maybe in the next 20 years. It's interesting to watch this new industry develop in Jiangsu and I think it is going to grow.

China's new economy has witnessed fast growth. The manufacturing industries in Suzhou and Nanjing have achieved prosperous development and it is very impressive to see them more and more powerful with Chinese manufacturers.
