High-quality development of China offers new opportunities

The two-day China Development Forum 2025, which concluded in Beijing on Monday, has once again demonstrated China's commitment to fostering a stable and open business environment as the world navigates economic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions.

The top executives of global multinationals attending the forum praised China's unwavering openness, saying it will accelerate new industrialization, sustainable growth and digital innovation. They pointed to China's increasing technological prowess and market-driven efficiency as key factors generating fresh prospects for international enterprises. These reflect their view that China is still an attractive investment destination.

Ministry of Commerce data show that 7,574 foreign-invested enterprises were established in China in the first two months of 2025, representing year-on-year growth of 5.8 percent. Meanwhile, foreign-invested businesses in China saw their export value grow 6.9 percent year-on-year to 1.08 trillion yuan ($148.78 billion), according to the General Administration of Customs.
