Gateway to Success: Engaging Hong Kong and Macao to Promote the 25th CIFIT
Promotional Events for the 25th China International Fair for Investment and Trade Successfully Held in Hong Kong and Macao MACAO, July 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On July 17 and 18, promotional events for the 25th China International Fair for Investment and Trade (CIFIT) were held in Hong Kong and Macao, respectively. The events drew more than 400 representatives from government agencies, chambers of commerce, financial institutions, and the private sector. Partnering with Strategic Connectors to Strengthen Global Industry Linkages Through sustained engagement with stakeholders in Hong Kong and Macao, CIFIT continues to advance broader international economic integration. These efforts include facilitating outbound investment by businesses based in mainland China and providing professional support to assist international investors seeking to enter the Chinese market. The roles of Hong Kong and Macao as strategic nodes in global investment corridors remain central to this agenda. Collaborating with Super Value Creators to Strengthen Financial Integration As a long-standing CIFIT participant, Hong Kong continues to exhibit at the fair and upholds its role as one of the world's most open economies, global hub for financial services, trade, shipping, and innovation. Macao continues to build on its strengths in cultural tourism, convention and exhibition services, financial innovation, and traditional Chinese medicine. The region draws on the Guangdong–Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin to support engagement with Lusophone markets through CIFIT-related initiatives. Creating New Channels for Global Business Engagement The Fair will take place in Xiamen from September 8 to 11, 2025. The United Kingdom will serve as the Guest Country of Honor, while Jiangsu Province will be recognized as the Guest Province of Honor. Under the theme Expanding Two-Way Investment, Advancing Global Development, the Fair will focus on three priority areas: Invest in China, Outbound Chinese Investment, and International Investment, with an emphasis on strengthened global engagement and thematic specialization. Participants noted the fair's role as a key platform for facilitating engagement between Hong Kong and Macao businesses and their mainland counterparts, supporting outbound commercial activity, and enhancing inbound foreign investment. The integration of Hong Kong and Macao's international networks and service platforms further amplifies the fair's ability to align global resources with strategic development goals. As the host city prepares for the 25th CIFIT, Xiamen extends an open invitation to international stakeholders to serve as long-term partners. More information Photo – View original content:

China meeting global demand for cooling products amid heat waves
China's 'summer economy' is gaining momentum, with domestic manufacturers racing to meet soaring overseas demand for cooling solutions. — China Daily BEIJING: Inside the bustling workshop of Dongguan JHS Electrical Co Ltd, a manufacturer of mobile air conditioners and dehumidifiers in Dongguan, South China's Guangdong province, the hum of machines filled the air as workers move swiftly through the assembly line, fastening, inspecting and packaging in early July. A total of 458 portable air conditioners rolled off the production line, neatly boxed and ready for export to Mexico. As sweltering heat waves grip many regions around the world, China's 'summer economy' is gaining momentum, with domestic manufacturers racing to meet soaring overseas demand for cooling solutions. With operations spanning more than 40 countries and regions, the Chinese company has established itself as a major player in the global cooling equipment market. 'Our portable air conditioners are independently developed, compact in size, energy-efficient and offer strong cooling performance,' said Gao Yueping, the company's chairman. 'Compared with traditional wall-mounted units, they are more cost-effective to install and far more portable.' Overseas demand has exceeded the company's expectations this year. By the end of April, its orders for portable air conditioners had surged 10% year-on-year, data from Huangpu Customs showed. With a new 80,000 sq m factory becoming fully operational earlier this year, Dongguan JHS Electrical expects total orders in 2025 to exceed 2.3 million units, generating an estimated output value of 1.6 billion yuan. To cope with unilateral trade policies in the United States, Gao said his company has expanded into new markets such as South-East Asia, where demand, particularly in less urbanised areas, is rising steadily. While production ramps up in southern China, activity in the eastern part of the country is just as intense. Roughly 1,400km from Dongguan, an air conditioner factory owned by Trane Air Conditioning Systems (China) Co Ltd in Taicang, East China's Jiangsu province, is also working at full capacity to ship products overseas as global demand for air conditioning systems continues to grow. — China Daily/ANN

US bank employee barred from leaving China in criminal case
BEIJING: China has confirmed an exit ban on a US bank employee involved in an ongoing criminal investigation. Wells Fargo managing director Chenyue Mao, a Shanghai-born executive based in Atlanta, is restricted from leaving the country while authorities probe the case. Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun stated Mao is 'involved in a criminal case currently being investigated by the Chinese authorities.' He added, 'The Chinese law enforcement agencies have imposed exit restrictions in accordance with the law.' No further details about the alleged offences were disclosed. Wells Fargo acknowledged the situation, saying it is 'closely tracking this situation and working through the appropriate channels so our employee can return to the United States as soon as possible.' Reports indicate the bank has now restricted employee travel to China following the incident. Guo emphasised that Mao 'cannot leave the country while the case is ongoing, and has an obligation to cooperate with the work of investigators.' He called it an 'individual case' and reiterated China's openness to foreign business, stating, 'No matter whether you are Chinese or not, you must follow Chinese laws while in China.' The case adds to growing concerns among multinational firms about China's business climate. Industry groups cite unclear data laws and prolonged detentions as key challenges. Tensions between Beijing and Western nations, particularly the US, have intensified in recent years. Separately, The Washington Post reported a US Commerce Department employee was also barred from leaving China after failing to disclose his government role on a visa application. The Chinese American man, from the Patent and Trademark Office, had visited family months earlier. Guo said he was unaware of the case. Recent incidents include a Japanese Astellas Pharma executive sentenced for espionage and AstraZeneca's China head detained over alleged illegal data practices. In 2023, a Kroll executive faced similar travel restrictions, highlighting risks for foreign professionals in China. - AFP
