ANC strengthens ties with China

Johannesburg - The ANC's progressive business forum (PBF) met the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade to strengthen trade ties between the two countries, the PBF said on Wednesday.

"The China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, with more than 300 000 companies as members, agreed to cooperate with the PBF in specific areas of trade promotion, including the coordination of South African participation in a number of trade exhibitions and fairs in China, as well as the facilitation and enhancement of trade delegation visits between the two countries," the PBF said.

"Both sides undertook to spare no effort to ensure their work was coordinated and unified to the benefit of both countries and its people."

This would be done by private sector trade delegations from each country visiting the other and acting as "conduits" to establish contacts between SA and Chinese enterprises wanting to trade in the two countries.
