“The world still needs Made-in-China goods,” said a foreign ministry spokesperson on Friday, underlining the Chinese market’s enduring appeal for foreign investors.
Despite a challenging global economy, recent data shows strengthening ties between the Chinese mainland and the rest of the world. Between January and April, goods trade rose 2.4 percent year on year, with April alone marking a 4.3-point jump from the first quarter.
Logistics networks are expanding fast: in the first five months, the Chinese mainland opened 101 international air cargo routes and added more than 195 weekly round-trip flights. At coastal hubs, port cargo throughput reached 5.755 billion tonnes (up 3.7 percent), while container volumes topped 110 million TEUs (up 7.9 percent).
For business and tech enthusiasts, these figures signal a resilient manufacturing base and a stable entry point into one of the world’s largest markets. Entrepreneurs can tap into efficient supply chains, while travellers and digital nomads benefit from growing connectivity.
“Unilateralism and protectionism are unsustainable,” the spokesperson added. “Walls and barriers will not stop us from engaging in open cooperation for shared development.”
With robust trade growth, rising logistics capacity, and a commitment to open collaboration, the Chinese market continues to shine as a cornerstone of global investment and innovation.
