Shanghai Mayor Zhu Zhongming met with New Zealand's Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown and his entourage yesterday. Zhu Zhongming said that China and New Zealand are important partners for each other. Shanghai and Auckland have close contacts and deep friendship. Since the two places established friendly exchanges in 2012, they have carried out extensive practical cooperation. Shanghai is the center of the country's major strategies, and the construction of a modern socialist cosmopolitan city with world influence is being accelerated. Auckland is New Zealand's largest city and an important economic, trade and financial centre. We hope that the two sides will earnestly implement the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries, further strengthen exchanges and cooperation in the fields of economy, trade, industrial investment, etc., achieve a higher level of mutual benefit and win-win situation, and contribute more to the healthy and stable development of Sino-Singapore relations. More Auckland companies are welcome to participate in the Expo and increase their investment layout in Shanghai. We expect the two sides to further strengthen practical cooperation in green and smart shipping, aviation connectivity, etc., continue to deepen exchanges in the fields of youth, culture, art, etc., and promote more people to travel to each other and experience the charm of each other's cities.
