中瑞生命科学协会长医学博士于江首先介绍了协会情况。他说,中瑞生命科学协会是一个专业,非盈利,独立的华人团体。成立于 2010 年 3 月,目前会员约有 300 人。会员中大部分拥有博士学位,在瑞 典大中小型生物医药企业,如阿斯利康,辉瑞制药等,从事研发,临床研究,市场销售,生产,知识 产权,法律事物等工作,在医药产业链的不同环节发挥着非常重要的作用。部分会员在瑞典著名大学 或国际领先的生物医药研究院从事医学基础科研和产品项目开发,许多人是生物医药各科技领域里的专 家和学术带头人。协会宗旨为加强会员的内部交流及自主 创业,增强与国内企业及科研院校的交流,推进中国与瑞典相关产业的互动。协会活动形式包括网上 平台的信息交流,定期举行研讨会,与国内来瑞访问的企业及科研院校进行交流,促进国内企业与瑞 典相关企业的对接,归国专家团与国内企业对接交流等。现在还成立了资深的专家委员会。IMG_1257
3N Partners 投资公司王晋岳说,“我们是做医药行业大健康产业的企业,如,医药,医疗器械,医疗服务等。作为投资者要利用行业的成长为专业领域去投资。我们投资的标准是,不但要给企业带来财务价值,还会给企业产业价值。中国的卫生产业过去是计划经济,医药供应商,医学服务总体是官办,价格都是由政府来制定。政府投资70%,所以医疗基本上是靠以药养医的政策来维持。那么医疗事业怎样获取经济利益呢?那就是谁在我眼前过,我就拿谁。那么过最多的就是药商,医疗器械。因此,就形成了腐败之风。美国也看出了医药的问题,所以他们从2006年就提出了恢复医药自造业的本来面目。”
医药领域从不同的趋势来看,去年全世界仅一个产品销售额在70亿英磅。因此,2014年中国彻底改变了医药销售模式,从宏观经济学角度上讲,明扣,暗扣,回扣,行贿彻底摧毁了,从此改变了全球医药经济的版图,化学制药将迅速趋于大众商品化。由此,另外一个商机就出现了。目前中国最大的商机是医疗器械,它具有历史罕见的行业特殊。它的本质体现的是产品,产品需要服务,医疗器械从行业上看他体现的就是服务,客观上讲就是人们需要大健康。因此,对服务的需求不断增长。未来的三,四年医疗器械的商机几乎平行于互联网。随着持续强劲的经济增长,以及政府致力于全世界最多人口的国家,提供全民医疗。激励国内市场对于医疗设备的需求正在快速增长,我们愿意起到双方桥梁的作用,引进瑞典的新技术,新产品,新服务以便和中国产业的发展相结合,创造更大的价值。
医用可降解材料及器件的开发与临床应用
IMG_1258 (1)
长春圣 博玛生物材料有限公司总经理庄秀丽说,长春圣博玛生物材料有限公司是一家从事医用可降解高分子材料及其下游医疗器械产品的开发、 生产、销售为一体的高新技术企业。在生物 降解材料和无源植入医疗器械领域具有较强研制开发能力。是医用聚乳酸产业的领导者。经过多年的建设与发展,圣博玛高强度生物可吸收骨折内固定钉、板等产品已通过 CFDA 注册。同时,以 聚乳酸为主要原料的界面螺钉、人工骨、颅骨板、防粘连膜、神经导管、提拉线、牙科矫形固定钉和 美容注射剂已逐渐走向临床。牙科种植体、3D 打印个性化医疗产品等技术也在圣博玛中科研究院逐 渐开发完善进入临床。
圣博玛公司已通过 ISO13485 以及 ISO9001 质量体系认证,并获得德国莱茵认证。同时被国家、 省市批准为“长春新材料产业技术创新战略联盟”成员单位、科技部国际科技合作基地、长春市企业 技术中心示范单位、知识产权示范单位。建有博士后创业基地、院士专家工作站等。与中国科学院长 春应用化学所建有省级“吉林省聚乳酸生物可降解材料科技创新中心”和“长春市医用聚乳酸科技创 新中心”,真正实现了聚乳酸在医用领域的产、学、研一体化。
圣博玛公司,以关爱大众健康为目标,携手精英人才,布局医疗科技未来,为打造一流医疗器 械创新企业而不断努力。
3N Partners 投资公司董文兴就中国医疗器械产业的现状及发展趋势 问题作了发言。他认为,目前世界在医疗器械企业排前十名的没有中国,而中国是一个十四亿人口的大国,中国还是医疗器械使用的大国,中国的医疗器械销售额每年将以20%的速度飞速增长。
希望中国的医疗器械企业能走入正轨,医疗器械产品能走出国门。

该专题讲座受到了热烈欢迎,在场的代表纷纷提问并进行了热烈的讨论,最后也希望以后能多进行一些类似的讲座。

Pieter ten Hoopen’s Hungry horse being exhibited at Fotografiska Museum in Stockholm

Stockholm, Nov. 22(Greenpost)–Pieter ten Hoopen’s Hungry Horse is being exhibited at Fotografiska Museum in Stockholm.

19 November 2015 – 31 January 2016

Emmy-nominated photographer and filmmaker Pieter ten Hoopen’s exhibition in Fotografiska’s video gallery comprises his film Hungry Horse and images from his eponymous book. Two different expressions of the artist’s attempt to describe and shed light on American society, which has provoked mixed, and strong, emotions. Far away from the picture of the “Land of Promise”.

In September, Pieter ten Hoopen was nominated for an Emmy for his film (se the trailer here) which is the culmination of a decade-long documentation of life in the small town of Hungry Horse in the Rocky Mountains of Montana. The project began when George Bush was re-elected and was fighting terrorism. It was a time when the gap between the rich and the poor widened.

Hungry Horse is a photographic rather than factual documentation of the state of mind of the people of the region and its landscape. Ten Hoopen wanted to get beyond the clichés of a country that many people have very distinct ideas about. Reproduced in movies and books, the stereotypical image of America is alien to most of the inhabitants of this small town in the Rocky Mountains. These are people who have been hit hard by the recession and unemployment. People plagued by drugs, poverty and loneliness.

“The project was like a slow food process. In order to learn to know the people and discover the unique expression of this special condition, it was crucial that I spend as much time as possible with them. After ten years I can confidently say that I have done everything I can to describe the town and the experience of the people who live there.”

The many aspects of the place and the people are brought out in a poetic and emotional work about our society and the time in which we live, sparking as many questions as answers. The images displayed at Fotografiska are ten Hoopen’s artistic interpretation of the state of the place, while the film, in the style of a documentary, provides the people with a platform to express their own views of the situation. The work has been nominated for an Emmy in the New Approaches: Arts, Lifestyle and Culture category.

The exhibition also includes a film by Peter Hoelstad in which journalist Lasse Bengtsson interviews ten Hoopen about the project and shows what happened when Hungry Horse was screened at the local saloon.

Årets vinnare på Stockholms filmfestival 2015

Stockholm, Nov. 22(Greenpost)–

Det blev den norska regissören Joachim Trier som tog hem Bronshästen under fredagskvällens prisutdelning. Nedan följer alla pristagare på Stockholms internationella filmfestival 2015.

I juryn för Stockholm XXVI Competition sitter producenten Mimmi Spång, regissören Peter Grönlund, regissören Christian Zübert, regissören Arab Nasser och regissören Di Phan Dang. Juryn för Stockholm Impact Award består av konstnären Ai Weiwei (juryordförande), regissören Ida Panahandeh och teaterregissören Linus Tunström. Jurymedlemmar för Stockholm Documentary Competition är filmkritikern Stefan Nylén, regissören och skådespelaren Alexandra Dahlström och regissören Matías Meyer. För Stockholm XXVI Short Film Competition, skådespelaren Saga Becker, regissören Alejandro Guzmán Alvarez och regissören Takeshi Fukunaga. Och för FIPRESCI, Yael Shuv, Kristin Aalen och Dariia Badior.

Bästa film: Louder Than Bombs av Joachim Trier
Priset för Bästa film går till ett estetiskt mästerstycke, en film som innovativt använder mediets alla komponenter och fritt rör sig mellan nutid, dåtid, dröm och föreställningsvärld. Med detta täta familjedrama om försoning, lappar filmskaparen gradvis ihop våra trasiga inre rum och synliggör oss för oss själva – och för varandra.

Bästa regidebut: Mediterranea av Jonas Carpignano
Priset för Bästa debut tillfaller en regissör som tar oss på en resa till en plats, där verkligheten triumferar med sitt dolda förakt. En osentimental, men ömsint film, om drömmar, kampen och förhoppningen om ett bättre liv, som samtidigt avspeglar det aktuella världsläget. Regissören har med denna käftsmäll till debut skapat ett mångbottnat och brännande verklighetsdrama som inte lämnar någon oberörd.

Bästa regi: László Nemes, Son of Saul
Priset för Bästa regi går till en film som får oss att sluta andas och istället uppta filmens egna puls. Med ett rasande tempo, en konstant rörelse, ett konsekvent subjektivt berättande och med långa, minutiöst utförda och mästerliga scenerier, tar regissören ett helt nytt grepp på ett ämne som skildrats otaliga gånger, men aldrig så här intensivt och tätt – och aldrig så här bra.

Bästa manus: Deniz Gamze Ergüven och Alice Winocour, Mustang
Författarna till denna film skildrar ett allvarsamt ämne med ömsom humor och ömsom värme. Det är en gripande berättelse om systerskap, en kampfilm som gör upp med det manliga förtrycket och dess unkna syn på den kvinnliga sexualiteten. Konservatismen ställs mot det moderna samhället, livet inom oss – och var persons rätt till sin egen kropp.

Bästa foto: Manuel Dacosse, Evolution
Priset för Bästa foto går till ett cinematiskt mästerverk, en berättelse som likaväl kan utspela sig i det undermedvetna som i det metaforiska eller på en annan planet. Ett kusligt vackert berättaruniversum, destillerat genom en mästares lins, med ett alldeles unikt visuellt uttryck, som skapar gåshud i själen.

Bästa kvinnliga skådespelare: Julija Steponaityte, The Summer of Sangaile
Priset för Bästa kvinnliga huvudroll går till en skådespelerska som lyser upp duken med sin totala närvaro. Det är ett subtilt och ändå mångfacetterat skådespel vi får ta del av, på samma gång svalt och sårbart, som arrogant och lidelsefullt. Hon gör oss nyfikna – och vi vill se mer!

Bästa manliga skådespelare: Koudous Seihon, Mediterranea
Priset för Bästa manliga huvudroll går till en skådespelare som äger berättelsen i varje scen. Det är en karaktärsgestaltning av en fighter, en street-smart överlevare och en medmänniska, som öppnar upp våra hjärtan i sin resa genom en sargad värld, full av faror. Mitt i berättelsens brutala verklighet lyckas han förmedla en känsla av hopp och tro på människan.

Bästa dokumentär: Behemoth av Liang Zhao
Den som ger sig in här gör bäst i att lämna allt hopp bakom sig. Här har vi en filmskapare som gräver djupt i sitt ämnes schakt och visar oss det giriga monster som gömmer sig i vår destruktiva civilisation. På ett poetiskt, vackert och känslomässigt sätt avslöjar filmen ett helvete på jorden. Genom kraften i starka bilder, skickligt berättande och djup empati ges vi chansen att uppfatta och göra slut på förödelsen av vår jord och varandra. Äkta och djupt nödvändig.

Stockholm Impact Award: Leena Yadav, Parched
Strålande skådespeleri i ett sensuellt färgstarkt bildspråk ger oss en unik inblick i kvinnor på den indiska landsbygdens tankar och hjärtan. En paradoxal hyllning till livet under hårda omständigheter som skapar både ilska och glädje, och ger bränsle till debatt så väl som hopp om förändring när den rör vid en brännande fråga som påverkar inte halva, utan hela vårt samhälle.

Bästa kortfilm: A Few Seconds av Nora El Hourch
Med hjälp av ett egensinnigt och djärvt berättande lyckas regissören skildra karaktärernas mänskliga egenskaper i det korta tidsformatet. Filmen är fylld av lager av känslor och vi är mycket spända på att följa denna nya talang i hennes fortsatta filmskapande.

Stockholm Rising Star: Aliette Opheim
Stockholm filmfestival Rising Star 2015 går till en skådespelare som besitter en djup känslighet och samtidigt en oerhörd styrka. Som kastar sig ut och gestaltar olikartade roller med stort mod och integritet. Med känslan att bära på en hemlighet.

Telia Film Award: Mediterranea av Jonas Carpignano
Med en varm, humanistisk hand har regissören skrivit och regisserat en starkt relevant och oväntat humoristisk film. En berättelse befolkad av skickligt sammansatta och komplext skildrade karaktärer och med en enastående huvudrollsinnehavare. En vacker film som mänskliggör upplevelsen av att leva idag och som ger en unik inblick i de erfarenheter som delas av många av de som flytt över Medelhavet.

FIPRESCI-priset: Macadam Stories av Samuel Benchetrit
FIPRESCI-priset går till en insiktsfull, melankolisk och ömsint komedi fylld med egensinnig, skruvad humor. Tre separata historier om storstadslivets ensamhet och längtan efter mänsklig närhet vävs sömlöst samman. De vackert tecknade och oerhört nyanserade berättelserna iscensätts i perfekt tempo samtidigt som de utmärkta skådespelarprestationerna låter karaktärernas mänsklighet skymta fram genom gliporna.

Stockholm Achievement Award: Ellen Burstyn
En ikon inom samtida amerikansk film, en djärv skådespelerska med stor integritet som har givit liv åt banbrytande karaktärer. Hennes framträdanden har lämnat ett bestående intryck av en obeveklig kamp för självständighet och frihet. Hon har kämpat mot det patriarkala samhället i Alice Bor Inte Här Längre, Satan i Exorcisten och missbrukets destruktiva kraft i Requiem for a Dream.

Stockholm Lifetime Achievement Award: Stephen Frears
Årets mottagare av Lifetime Achievement Award är en filmskapare som inte räds att ta ställning för de marginaliserade i samhället. Hans filmskapande spänner från politiska filmer med socialt patos till storslagna epos med de största namnen. Oavsett vilken form berättelsen tar visar Stephen Frears att han är en regissör med en genuin nyfikenhet inför människors livsöden.

Stockholm Visionary Award: Yorgos Lanthimos
Genom att blottlägga mänskliga relationer synliggör Yorgos Lanthimos perspektiv som är både utmanande och egensinniga. Hans filmer tar med publiken på en oförutsägbar resa från det till synes oskyldiga till det djupt hotande; från det banala till det omvälvande; från en idé om det romantiska till den totalitära ideologin. En filmisk resa som tvingar oss att upptäcka en obekväm spegling av vårt eget beteende, våra begär och vårt sätt att kommunicera. Och ändå kan vi inte sluta titta, och identifiera oss, med ett snett leende på läpparna. Det är utmärkande för en sann visionär.

1 km film-stipendiat: Jag vill nå dig av Victor Lindgren
Två syskon tvingas uthärda att deras föräldrars relation bryter samman. Regissören ställer en obekväm fråga till oss i publiken: kan ett barns överlevnadsinstinkt övervinna en förälders självdestruktivitet? Filmen använder en förfinad stil för att åstadkomma stark känslomässig effekt och regissören visar stort mod och potential.

iFestival Award: Tisure av Adrian Geyer
Framröstad av Stockholms filmfestivals besökare.

The Stockholm XXVI Short Film Competition jury consists of actor Saga Becker, director Alejandro Guzmán Alvarez, and director Takeshi Fukunaga. And for the FIPRESCI, Yael Shuv, Kristin Aalen, and Dariia Badior.

Best film: Louder Than Bombs by Joachim Trier
The prize for best film goes to an aesthetic masterpiece, a film that innovatively uses all cinematic components to move freely between present, past, dream and imagination. With this tightly woven family drama, the director gradually patches together our broken inner places and makes us visible to ourselves – and to each other.

Best first film: Mediterranea by Jonas Carpignano
The prize goes to a director who takes us on a journey to a place where reality triumphs with its hidden contempt. An unsentimental yet tender film about dreams, struggles and hopes for a better life that at the same time mirrors the contemporary state of the world. The director has with this knockout of a debut created a multifaceted and pressing real-life drama that leaves no one unaffected.

Best director: László Nemes, Son of Saul
The award goes to a film that makes us hold our breath and instead become part of the film’s own pulse. With furious pacing, constant motion, a consistently subjective point-of-view and with long, meticulous and masterly executed sequences, the director takes a whole new perspective on a subject that has been depicted countless times, but never with this intensity – and never this good.

Best script: Deniz Gamze Ergüven and Alice Winocour, Mustang
The writers of this film depict a serious topic with both humour and warmth. It is a touching story of sisterhood, an empowering film that challenges patriarchal oppression with its stale views on female sexuality. Conservative values are placed in opposition to modern society, the life within each of us – and every person’s right to their own bodies.

Best cinematography: Manuel Dacosse, Evolution
The prize for best cinematography goes to a cinematic masterpiece, a story that could as well take place in the subconscious as on a metaphorical plane or another planet. A hauntingly beautiful universe distilled through the lens of a master, with a singular visual expression that provokes goose bumps in the soul.

Best actress: Julija Steponaityte, The Summer of Sangaile
The prize for best female lead goes to an actress who illuminates the screen with her absolute presence. It is a subtle yet multifaceted acting we are witnessing, at the same time cool and vulnerable, arrogant and passionate. She makes us curious – and we want to see more!

Best actor: Koudous Seihon, Mediterranea
The prize for best male lead goes to an actor who owns the story in every scene. It’s a portrait of a fighter, a street-smart survivor and a fellow human, who opens our hearts on his journey through a torn world full of dangers. He manages to convey a feeling of hope and faith in humanity in the midst of the brutal reality of the story.

Best documentary: Behemoth by Liang Zhao
Abandon all hope you who enter here. This filmmaker digs deep inside the bowels of its subject, showing us the monster of greed hiding in our destructive civilization. This film unveils hell right here on earth in a beautiful, emotive and poetic way. Through the power of great imagery, storytelling and empathy we are given a chance to perceive and finally end this abuse of the earth than of each other. Pure and utterly necessary.

Stockholm Impact Award: Leena Yadav, Parched
Through superb acting giving a unique insight into the minds and hearts of women in rural India told with colourful, sensual cinematography. This film is a paradoxical celebration of life in tough circumstances, creating both anger and joy, giving fuel for debate as well as hope for change when addressing a burning question that affects, not half, but the whole of our society.

Best short film: A Few Seconds by Nora El Hourch
In a very unique and bold way of storytelling the director manage to show how much humanity in the characters in such a short time. There are so many layers of emotions in this film. We are excited to discover this new talent in her future work.

Stockholm Rising Star: Aliette Opheim
This year’s Rising Star is awarded an actor who inhabits a deep sensibility as well as an immense power. Who delves into diverse roles with great courage and integrity. With the sense of carrying a secret.

Telia Film Award: Mediterranea by Jonas Carpignano
With a warm, humanistic touch Jonas Carpignano has written and directed a film with acute relevance and unexpected humour. Populated by brilliantly crafted and depicted characters with complexity, throughout the story, with an outstanding Koudous Seihon in the male lead. A beautiful film that humanizes what it is to live in the world today and offers a unique glimpse into experiences shared by many of the people fleeing across the Mediterranean Sea.

FIPRESCI best film: Macadam Stories by Samuel Benchetrit
The FIPRESCI award goes to Samuel Benchetrit’s Macadam Stories (Asphalte), an insightful, melancholic and tender comedy, filled with quirky deadpan humour. Three separate stories are seamlessly interwoven around the theme of urban loneliness and the longing for human connection, all beautifully drawn, highly nuanced and perfectly paced, while the excellent performances allow the characters humanity to shine through the cracks.

Stockholm Achievement Award: Ellen Burstyn
An icon of contemporary American cinema, a bold actress with great integrity, who has given life to groundbreaking characters. Her performances have left a lasting impression with a relentless struggle for independence and freedom.

Stockholm Lifetime Achievement Award: Stephen Frears
This year’s receiver of the Lifetime Achievement Award is a filmmaker who is not afraid to take a stand for those who exist at the margins of society. Regardless of what form the story takes, Stephen Frears shows us that he is a director with a genuine curiosity for people’s life stories.

Stockholm Visionary Award: Yorgos Lanthimos
This director gives us a perspective that is both challenging and headstrong. His films offer the audience an unpredictable cinematic trip that forces us to discover an inconvenient reflection of our own behaviour, logic and desires. And yet we cannot stop looking, identifying and yes, very oddly smiling.

1 km Film-scholarship: I turn to you by Victor Lindgren
Two siblings are forced to experience the implosion of their parents’ relationship. The director poses an inconvenient question to us in the audience, can a child’s will to survive overcome the self-destructive desires of the parent. The film seamlessly connects refined form with emotional impact and the director shows great courage and promise.

iFestival Award: Tisure by Adrian Geyer
Voted for by the 2015 Stockholm Film Festival audience.

Analysis: Singles’ Day highlights China’s consumption potential

 BEIJING, Nov. 12 (Greenpost) — The nationwide shopping spree on Wednesday has offered solid proof of the spending power of China’s billion-plus population, exciting the government as it hopes increased consumer spending can give the economy a shot in the arm.
Chinese online retailers logged record sales on this year’s Singles’ Day, the equivalent of the U.S. Cyber Monday, as consumers scrambled for deals during the world’s largest online shopping event.
Alibaba’s Tmall marketplace has reported sales of 91.2 billion yuan (14.3 bln U.S. dollars), a 60-percent rise from last year’s 51.7 bln yuan.
Brick-and-mortar stores also launched promotional events.
The festive atmosphere came despite downbeat sentiment in the broader economy, which expanded 6.9 percent in the third quarter, the lowest reading since the second quarter of 2009.
Compared with investment and exports, consumption has been a less conspicuous growth driver for China in past decades, but it is catching up fast.
In the first half of 2015, it contributed more than 60 percent of economic growth.
China’s retail sales of consumer goods in October 2015 grew 11 percent from October 2014 to 2.83 trillion yuan (445 billion U.S. dollars). This was the highest such year-on-year rise of 2015, while online sales surged by 34.6 percent on the same basis to 2.95 trillion yuan.
Following a meeting on Wednesday, the State Council, China’s cabinet, promised more measures to encourage commerce and consumption.
It pledged to make the market more accessible to private investors and to reduce restrictions on foreign capital. The government will strengthen policing of merchants, improve intellectual property rights protection and crack down on fake goods, the State Council said.
China will also encourage businesses to adopt new technology and materials to improve the quality of their products, according to the statement.
Chen Lifen, a researcher with the Ministry of Commerce, said the policies will encourage market competition, stimulating companies to offer better products and services, which will in turn drive consumption growth.
In addition, the government plans to encourage imports of consumer goods, open more duty-free shops and streamline tax refund policies for foreign tourists.
As China’s middle-class population expands, demands for foreign products have grown substantially.
According to Alibaba, sellers from 232 countries and regions ran promotions during this year’s Singles’ Day. In less than two minutes, cross-border transactions on its platforms exceeded the daily volume on the same day last year.
Although more imports of consumer goods will put pressure on domestic companies, that will also force them to up their game, which is conducive to the country’s economic restructuring, according to Zhang Handong, director of Zhejiang’s research center on international trade.  Enditem

China Focus: Belt and Road to boost China-ASEAN economic ties

BEIJING, Nov. 11 (Xinhua) — China’s Belt and Road initiative, highlighted during President Xi Jinping’s visit to Vietnam and Singapore last week, is set to boost bilateral ties and facilitate trade and investment between China and Southeast Asian nations.
The deepening cooperation on the Belt and Road with the two countries, major members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and key areas along the routes, will expand and upgrade China-ASEAN economic relations, analysts said.
The Belt and Road was proposed by China in 2013 as a trade and infrastructure network. It will connect Asia to Europe and Africa through the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road.
During Xi’s three-day trip, China and Vietnam reached consensus on expanding cooperation within the framework of the initiative and Vietnam’s “Two Corridors and One Economic Circle” plan, as well as on production capacity cooperation.
In a 20-point statement, China and Singapore agreed to cooperate in Belt and Road construction, trade, city planning, education and customs, among others.
Song Hong, researcher with the Institute of World Economics and Politics, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said the Belt and Road will generate fresh opportunities and infrastructure cooperation that will boost integration of China and ASEAN economies.
Sharing a land border of over 1,000 km, China and Vietnam have been in close contact on infrastructure cooperation with new express roads and railways starting operations almost every year.
A joint communique issued Friday said the two countries have reached an agreement on a feasibility study of the Hanoi-Lao Cai-Hai Phong Railway in northern Vietnam.
New railways in Vietnam are only part of the infrastructure improvement in Southeast Asia as China promotes the ambitious Trans-Asian Railway that will connect Laos, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam.
“Thanks to improved infrastructure, logistics are cheaper and faster, along the routes,” Huo Jianguo, former president of the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation.
Echoing his remarks, Song recognized brightening prospects of China-ASEAN cooperation and cited fresh opportunities in capital-intensive industries, like energy, cement and steel, and labor-intensive sectors including textiles and garments.
“Those industries are mature in China, will help the industrial upgrade of ASEAN members and are the best choice for cooperation,” Song said.
China and Vietnam also signed a number of cooperation documents covering such fields as party-to-party exchanges, transportation, production capacity, railway, energy, finance and local affairs.
More than 1,000 km away from Vietnam, Singapore is also a significant link in the Maritime Silk Road.
When meeting Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Xi said the two sides will promote a third government-to-government project this time in Chongqing, southwest China, and explore cooperation between the enterprises in third markets.
Zhao Lei, associate professor of the Institute for International Strategic Studies at the Party School of the Central Committee of the CPC, expects Singapore will deepen Belt and Road cooperation and build a fourth project in China’s western regions in the future.
Singapore has been a major source of foreign investment in China. Between 1990 and 2014, its cumulative investment in China totaled 72.3 billion U.S. dollars.
The two leaders agreed to redefine China-Singapore ties as a partnership of all-round cooperation keeping with the times during Xi’s visit to the city-state.
Belt and Road cooperation will help upgrades to China-ASEAN Free Trade Area (FTA) and integration of Asian-Pacific region.
Thanks to the FTA, since 2010, China has become ASEAN’s largest trading partner, while ASEAN is China’s third largest trading partner. Trade between China and ASEAN increased 8.23 percent year on year to 480 billion U. S. dollars in 2014.
Given growing economic ties, the two sides are seeking for an FTA upgrade and have seen steady progress after negotiations in goods and service trade, investment and technological cooperation.
“The FTA upgrade is actually the implementation of the Belt and Road construction,” Song said.
Huo said China welcomes countries along the routes to actively participate into the process.  Enditem

China, U.S. should increase legislative exchanges: top legislator

 BEIJING, Nov. 20 (Greenpost) — Chinese top legislator Zhang Dejiang has met with U.S. House of Representatives Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, calling for more exchanges and communication between China’s top legislature and the U.S. Congress.
Calling China-U.S. relations “of great importance,” Zhang, chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPC), said China and the United States agreed to continue to build a new type of major-country relations during Chinese President Xi Jinping’s state visit to the United States in September.
Both presidents made clear the correct direction of development of bilateral ties and reached a series of agreements during the visit, sending a positive signal to the outside world that China and the United States are committed to dialogue and cooperation, Zhang said.
He called on the NPC and U.S. Congress to enhance communication and exchanges, deepen mutual understanding and advance substantial cooperation in the spirit of mutual respect and common ground.
The chairman encouraged both sides to do more to promote mutual trust and cooperation so as to promote the development of bilateral relations and benefit the people of both countries and the world.
Speaking highly of the meeting between the two presidents, Pelosi said she expected the two countries’ legislatures to step up exchanges to boost friendship between the two peoples.
Earlier on Thursday, Zhang Ping, vice chairman of the NPC Standing Committee, hosted a meeting between the NPC and the U.S. congressional delegation led by Pelosi.
The two had a candid and in-depth exchange of views on issues including bilateral ties, legislative exchanges and climate change.  Enditem
