Minsk, January 15 (Xinhua) — Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko on Thursday appointed Tatyana Kharlap as head of the state institution "Administration of the China-Belarus Industrial Park 'Great Stone.'" The corresponding information was published by the press service of the Belarusian head of state.
Until recently, T. Harlap served as the Consul General of Belarus in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. She also previously participated in the legislative process for the Great Stone Industrial Park.
"The People's Republic of China is not just our business partner, but also a great friend. Therefore, of course, our work will be based primarily on these principles. I think you know very well that the leaders of Belarus and China were the ideologists behind the Great Stone project. Our leaders set the tone, and we must follow it," T. Kharlap noted in an interview with the Belta news agency, discussing the industrial park's future directions.
She noted that 171 residents are registered at Great Stone. "Last year, a record number of residents were attracted—34. Regarding the capital structure, today there are approximately equal numbers of companies with Belarusian and Chinese investments. The rest are from 14 other countries, both near and far," explained T. Harlap.
According to her, the industrial park has already received over $1 billion in investment from various sources and built modern, first-class infrastructure. More than a third of its residents have already begun work.
“The park administration’s role is to provide comprehensive and high-quality services to these residents so that they can quickly implement their projects and our economy can benefit from them,” T. Harlap concluded. –0–
