Chile: Strategic developments in Santiago

The President of the Chile-China Chamber of Commerce: The International Import Expo is an important platform for deepening Sino-Chile trade and economic cooperation. Xinhua News Agency, Santiago, Nov. 2 (Reporter Zhu Yubo): Juan Esteban Musalem, President of the Chile-China Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Tourism, recently told Xinhua reporters that the China International Import Expo not only provides an important platform for Chilean enterprises to open up the Chinese market, but also creates opportunities for enterprises to understand the direction of China's economic development and expand long-term cooperation. Musalem said that China has been Chile's largest trading partner since 2009. For this reason, many Chilean enterprises have actively participated since the beginning of the founding of the Import Expo, hoping to use this platform to further penetrate the Chinese market. He said that one of the major characteristics of the Import Expo is that it is specifically oriented towards imports, providing a centralized docking platform for global suppliers and Chinese purchasers. "It brings together large and small enterprises looking for business opportunities at the same time and place, further expanding the opportunities for Chilean products and services to access the Chinese market." Musalem said that from the perspective of Chilean enterprise participation, agriculture, service trade and mining are relatively active fields. With the continuous development of bilateral trade and economic relations, the content of Chilean enterprises' cooperation with China is also expanding from traditional commodity trade to services, knowledge and high value-added fields. Speaking about the current international trade and economic environment, Musalem believes that against the background of complex geopolitical situations and rapid technological development, Chile should maintain close ties with China and Asian markets. For Chilean enterprises, continuously understanding changes in Asian markets and understanding the direction of China's economic development has an increasingly realistic significance. He said that in recent years, the scale of the Import Expo has been constantly expanding, and more and more countries, regions and international organizations have participated in it, and the Expo itself has been constantly expanding, which can help enterprises "read" the Chinese market and international trade trends. Musalem believes that by participating in the Import Expo, Chilean enterprises will have the opportunity to directly understand China's future key directions in technological innovation and high-quality development, and find new cooperation spaces that fit both parties' interests accordingly. "Even just walking around and looking around the Import Expo pavilion, it is a very valuable experience," he said.
