More than 60 countries have gathered in China for one of Asia’s largest trade and investment events, aimed at strengthening economic partnerships and opening new market opportunities.

The 10th China–South Asia Exposition and the 30th China Kunming Import and Export Fair began on 11 June and runs until 16 June in Kunming, China.

The event has brought together around 2,300 exhibitors and is expected to attract more than 400,000 visitors and buyers from across the region.

Businesses and government delegations are showcasing developments in technology, agriculture, tourism and manufacturing, while exploring opportunities for trade and investment.

Governor of Yunnan Province Wang Yubo said China remains committed to strengthening economic cooperation and regional connectivity through platforms such as the exposition.

He said the event helps countries expand trade links, attract investment and promote shared economic growth.

Alongside exhibitions, participants are taking part in business meetings and networking events designed to build new partnerships.

Organisers hope connections made during the expo will lead to long-term investment opportunities and stronger economic cooperation between participating countries.
