China is bound to create enormous business opportunities for both Chinese and overseas businesses.
Li Rongrong, vice minister of the State Economic and Trade Commission, made the remarks Sunday. With China's imminent entry into the WTO, the country will become fully integrated into the global economy. China will further open its finance, tourism, accounting and legal consultation services to overseas investors and further improve the legal system regarding overseas investment, according to Li. Li said that from 2001, China will start implementing the first five-year plan of the new century, focusing on further restructuring the economy which will create enormous business opportunities for overseas investors. Li hopes that more overseas businesspeople will invest in China, especially in its western regions.
