NANNING, July 23 (Xinhua) — Sri Lanka will be a special guest country partner of the 22nd China-ASEAN EXPO (CAEXPO) to be held from Sept. 17 to 21 in Nanning, capital of south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the expo secretariat confirmed Wednesday.

The event will be attended by a Sri Lankan government delegation led by senior diplomats. The exhibition will feature key Sri Lankan enterprises of national importance, including port operators and spice producers.

The EXPO programme includes a number of events related to Sri Lanka, including a national image exhibition, a product display and a promotional presentation of the country.

The Special Invited Partner Country mechanism, first launched at the 11th CAEXPO, invites participants of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership or Belt and Road Initiative, excluding China and ASEAN countries. This makes the expo a platform to promote exchanges between China, ASEAN and non-regional countries, creating more commercial opportunities. Sri Lanka was previously granted the Special Partner status at the 13th CAEXPO.

Joint projects between China and Sri Lanka currently cover infrastructure, energy, port development and other sectors, helping to strengthen bilateral cooperation and ties in areas such as economics and culture. –0–

BEIJING, July 23 (Xinhua) — Investing in China for the future with mutual benefits has become a broad consensus among global investors, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said Wednesday.

Guo Jiakun pointed out that the Chinese side invites companies from all countries to participate in Chinese-style modernization, achieving more significant results and greater progress in the process of integration into high-quality development.

A recent report released by the US-China Business Council shows that 82 percent of US companies in China will post a profit in 2024. While many companies said their biggest concerns were uncertainty in Sino-US relations and tariffs, the Chinese market remains vital to them.

Commenting on this information, Guo Jiakun said that as of March 2025, 1.24 million foreign-invested companies had been established in China, with a total investment of nearly US$3 trillion.

“By promoting China’s reform and opening up, these companies will enjoy broad growth opportunities and significant returns on investment,” the diplomat said, adding that statistics show that the number of newly established foreign-invested enterprises in China has seen a double-digit increase in the first half of 2025.

Guo Jiakun noted that the just-concluded 3rd China International Supply Chain Expo saw the number of participating countries and regions increase to 75, while the first such event saw only 55 countries and regions.

The number of American participants increased by 15 percent compared to the previous exhibition, which allowed the United States to maintain its leadership among foreign exhibitors. Among the foreign companies represented, more than 65 percent are included in the Fortune Global 500 list or are industry leaders.

"Foreign-invested enterprises are expressing their confidence in China's economic prospects through their concrete actions," Guo Jiakun emphasized.

The diplomat added that the Chinese government recently introduced new measures to encourage foreign investment, demonstrating sincerity and determination in promoting high-level opening-up. –0–

The event is aimed at deepening mutual understanding and strategic trust, and promoting the building of a closer SCO community with a shared future.

More than 300 guests from government departments, think tanks, culture, art, education and other fields from SCO member countries attended the event and held an in-depth exchange of views on the theme “Promoting the Global Initiative of Civilizations – Building a Beautiful Common Home of the SCO”.

SCO Deputy Secretary General Sohail Khan noted that humanitarian exchanges and people's diplomacy are embedded in the SCO's founding documents. The event reflects the organization's mission to create platforms for mutual understanding, mutual learning and mutual respect for the peoples of Eurasian countries.

Vice-Rector of the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic Zainidin Kurmanov noted that in the context of a complex and turbulent international situation, the global initiative of civilizations, consonant with the “Shanghai spirit”, calls for respect for the diversity of world civilizations, promotion of universal values, and strengthening of international cultural exchanges and cooperation. The initiative is the key to understanding and building a community of shared destiny for humanity.

First Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, Deputy Chairman of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Dmitry Novikov said that China, through practical actions, is helping the SCO confidently move forward in the direction of unity and mutual trust, peace and tranquility, prosperity and development, good-neighborliness and friendship, as well as equality and justice. He expressed hope for the further implementation of a new type of inter-civilizational dialogue to stimulate mutual learning, mutual enrichment and mutual respect.

“As the large SCO family expands, we must continuously develop platforms for dialogue among the media, think tanks, cultural and youth circles, fully involve representatives of all spheres in the friendly interaction of the SCO, stimulating their initiative and enthusiasm, and pass on from generation to generation the spirit of SCO friendship based on eternal good-neighborliness and mutual assistance,” said Du Zhanyuan, Director of the PRC Foreign Language Literature Publication and Distribution Office.

The event included three thematic sub-forums on sustainable development, preservation of cultural heritage and multi-format exchange in the field of visual arts. Following the event, a report was presented on “Common Digital Civilization Community: Chinese Initiatives and the Future of the SCO” and the Tianjin Initiative “Joint Defense of Civilization: SCO Youth in Action”.
