Today, the 9th China International Import Expo opened in Shanghai. 162 countries, regions and international organizations participated in this year's fair, and 4,142 overseas companies participated in the exhibition. The total exhibition area exceeded 440,000 square meters for the first time. The Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Li Jiachao, said in his speech at the 9th Hongqiao International Economic Forum on “Connecting New Opportunities for the Development of Hong Kong” of the 9th Hongqiao International Economic Forum that during the “15th Five-Year Plan” period, Hong Kong will continue to strengthen its position as the world's largest offshore RMB business hub, further enhance the offshore RMB market's ability to support the real economy, and comprehensively enhance support for trade, investment and financing, and cross-border business. Li Jiachao pointed out that the CIIE is a world-class fair and a major event attracting international attention. This forum is the first time since Hong Kong announced its five-year plan to hold a large-scale seminar at an international forum. It provides an excellent platform to gather leaders and experts from different fields and industries in Hong Kong and the mainland to discuss and utilize Hong Kong's unique advantages in relying on the motherland and connecting the world under “one country, two systems” to integrate and serve the country's overall development situation and serve the country's high level of openness to the outside world.
