In Counsellor Sun Liwei’s speech, he highly praised CEA’s contributions in promoting economic and trade exchanges between China and Finland.

Hope China and Finland would further strengthen bilateral economic and trade relations.

And China-Finland trade continues to grow steadily under the current complex international situation. We hope that Chinese and Finnish enterprises will create more wealth and value together” in his speech.

The Association plays a role as a bridge, promotes and deepens the understanding and cooperation between Chinese and Finnish enterprises, and makes continuous contributions to the economic and trade exchanges between China and Finland.
