Plowing Forward Despite A Slow Economy: Trade Development - Zhejing, China
CHINAnUSA.com’s early planning for success

Fremont, California, November 12, 2001 - With time as a compelling force for overseas trade interest, the concentration of Chinese delegations to the U.S. in search of assistance in establishing a strong foundation for future foreign trade ventures continues. In opposition, the shifting global economy overshadows opportunities of U.S. foreign trade development with uncertainty. CHINAnUSA.com extends welcoming advise for various groups in China to ease concerns on trade relation development. Today, CHINAnUSA.com hosts a 14-member delegation to discuss the current state of U.S. foreign trade in Zhejing Province, located on the eastern coast of China bordering the East China Sea.

Bolstering a prime location on the coastline for commerce and trade, the delegation expressed a genuine and sincere interest to work in conjunction with CHINAnUSA.com in developing a plan to address the need to re-structure their focus towards technology. Like many other areas of China, Zhejing Province has long held strength in sheer manufacturing capacity. Spanning many industries, the strength of the province lacks a focal point on technology which is viewed as the key to future success in U.S. foreign trade.

CHINAnUSA.com fielded several inquiries from the delegation in regards to the current turbulence in the U.S. economy and how that will directly affect trade promotions between China and the U.S. in the near future. Mr. Jerry Shih, CEO and founder of CHINAnUSA.com, responded by conveying his understanding of their concern and reassured his audience that despite slowing economic times, the need to prepare is still critical. Mr. Shih went on to stress the importance of strength in planning and flexibility in trade directives. He pointed out that it may be early to define hard-lined objectives at this point, but the significance in forecasting and scheduling ahead will be proven. “Getting in on the ground floor, will pay off”, Mr. Shih advised the delegation comprised of top-level executives and high-ranking provincial government officials.

The discussion between both parties paved the way for future planning and development of trade promotion events and projects. The delegation returns home with a renewed sense of determination knowing that CHINAnUSA.com can be counted on for future assistance. CHINAnUSA.com lights the way for the process of plotting long-term goals to begin.
