(ECNS) -- The 2025 Chinese government work report emphasized the need to expand higher-level opening-up and to actively stabilize foreign trade and investment. Regardless of changes in the external environment, China should remain steadfast in its commitment to opening-up.
How will China further leverage its advantages in advancing high-level opening-up? What steps is China taking to make its business environment more accessible and attractive to foreign nationals? During the latest China Q&A, Fan Sheling, a member of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), who is also a member of the Central Committee of the China Democratic National Construction Association and member of the Standing Committee of the Hebei Provincial Committee of the CPPCC, answered questions from Justin O’Jack, chief representative of the University of Virginia in China.
Fan concluded that China’s high-level opening-up has three advantages, namely its vast, large-scale market, its strong continuity of policies, and its strong manufacturing capacity. Apart from that, China’s digital economy and green energy development remain attractive to foreign investment.
Pointing out that China has issued the Foreign Investment Law and relevant implementing regulations, Fan noted that the country has implemented comprehensive protections for foreign investment, adding that China has opened up sectors such as healthcare, education, finance, to extend its opening-up scale.
