BEIJING, July 5 (Xinhua) — The Horgos Port of Entry in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Friday was officially awarded the title of "international sanitary land port" after passing the assessment and acceptance by an expert team of the World Health Organization (WHO) on the spot, the press service of the Horgos city administration said.

The assessment of an international sanitary port is carried out by WHO according to several criteria: the sanitary and hygienic infrastructure of the checkpoint, the hygiene management system and the capacity to respond to public health emergencies.

The transformation of Horgos Port into an international sanitary land port greatly enhances its ability to respond to international public health emergencies and creates a safer environment for customs clearance, and is of great significance to serving the high-quality construction of the Belt and Road and ensuring global public health security.

Situated on China's border with Kazakhstan, the Khorgos checkpoint is the largest integrated border crossing in Xinjiang, handling both road and rail freight. It serves as a key hub in the key area of the Silk Road Economic Belt under construction. -0-
